Samsung hits comedy gold... again

Samsung knows a good thing when it sees it. The company struck gold with its TV commercials mocking iPhone users late last year. The commercials depicted rabid Apple fans that wait in long lines to snap up the latest iteration of the iPhone.
 
Over the weekend, Samsung upped the ante with a print ad that directly went after Apple's new iPhone 5.
 
And now, Samsung is ready for a second round of "Apple Mockery" TV advertising. If the first commercials were amusing to you, this one is sure to tickle your funny bone as well. 

Here are some choice quotes:

"They're saying this phone is going to be like a precious jewel"
"All I'm saying is they should have a priority line for people that have waited 5 times"

The characters are properly casted, well written and played.

Some of my favorites are the girl ("I heard the connector will be all digital. What does that even mean?!"), the older man saying a youthful phrase "I'm psyched!", the girl with the puzzled look in response to "Yea, but they make the coolest adapters.", the guy holding a line for his obviously older parents holding Starbucks-like coffee cups (Again, no accident here what the message is.), the "big screen!" guy, the normal looking guy saying "We've moved on" to geekier friend and of course the guy saying "We're going to get that for sure... not this time but the next time. Right?"

Well done Samsung.
