Toyota Corolla advertises with ninja cats

Toyota's latest Australian advertisement for the Corolla features a showdown between one lone modern-day feline shogun and a constabulary of anthropomorphic ninja cats, whose illicit sardine production facility is deftly robbed through a combination of kick-ass kung-fu and swinging lights.

It is weird.

I saw this last night - I wanted to see where they were going with the "cute cat heads on human bodies" idea - but disappointingly, it went nowhere.

They could have at least said "I CAN HAZ COROLLA???"

Weird, and disappointingly pointless...
Probably also due to the student/no-budget look the whole shot has.

I bet it sounds funnier in Australian.

Swinging the light to distract the other cats while he steals the fish was spot on hilarious though!

Somewhere, a Furry is becoming aroused by this.

It certainly gave that boy a case of the heebie-jeebies.*

*"that boy" being me.

Does the Australian advertising industry have a disproportionate amount of Furrys working in it or are there other evil forces at play here?
First the Cascade beer ads, now this...

Somebody please make it stop, it is disturbing.

Dude, that car looks hot for a Corolla.

Ninja Kittens - cool idea! I wanna see more!

Times have changed. Dependable cars never used to attract pussy.
