I spend about an hour and a half on the train and another 40 minutes walking round trip to school five days a week so I've become fairly jaded to the 1,000s of signs and videos I see from point A to point B except for when I'm intentionally seeking them out to practice my Japanese reading skills. This afternoon was an exception:
On the way to work I saw a muted version of this commercial on one of the many screens in the train
After that I noticed all these

This completely ruined it for me. Originally, I thought to myself, "Hmm, I usually like Kevin Costner and that ending has been used before, but I still like it. Maybe I'll check out Turkish Air next time I fly." By the time I got off the train to get home I never wanted to see any Turkish Airlines branding again.
Thanks for taking away everything I could practice reading from and the six or seven commercials I usually zone out with to make my trek home a little less tedious, I owe you one. Please grab my attention with something that peaks my interest next time rather than repeatedly bashing me in the face with it.
A little trivia: Coca-Cola comes out with a new product in Japan on average of every 21 days to compete with the over saturation here.
