I don't even care that it's a JC Penney ad. Many thanks to drzarron for the hookup.

Superb. Sometimes ads get it right.

Oh lord, that made me tear up. Massive kudos to JCP. That got my business next time I need something they sell.

This is the first ad that's made me actually made me cry in a long long long time. I was kind of surprised actually..

I am _very_ glad they made the central character a girl. Wouldn't have nearly as much impact as as little boy.

This is a keeper.

I certainly can't complain about the name choice for her, either. :-)

Yes, and did you see the face she made at those rock-throwing louts? And her daddy helping her with the ladder as she got into the ship? The amount of WIN in this video is just amazing.

Oh that is well done. Thanks for the link!

In many ways I can relate to the ad as well. I love the message that today is the day to dream. Through such dreams people change the world. :) Well done indeed. Many thanks for sharing it with us Tom.

*sniffles* I think I've seen bits of it before but wow, a 2 min ad!!

I too haven't checked out JCP in a long time, it might be time try it again (especially with Shears so far away and in a very scummy area)

I agree, definitely MUCH bigger impact with a girl wearing glasses!!!

THIS ad I'd love to see more than that idiotic 'we removed the whopper' ad (and everyone panics *rolls eyes*)

thanks for forwarding the link tom!

Will somebody *please* hire that ad agency to work on PR for NASA!

Yet more proof that the geek shall inherit the earth.

Very nice ad. I like to see animated Polar Bears and the like as much as the next guy but THIS was very special.
