Virgin Hotels "Brilliant" (2014) 2:00 (USA)

This animated spot shows you all the ways Virgin Hotels will be brilliant and revolutionary etc. The spots very Virginy in its animation, although not as irreverent as I'd expected, considering the stuff you can do in a hotel (wink wink). But I wouldn't really call Virgin Hotels revolutionary. I'd call it something Embassy Suites and extended stay hotels in general have more or less been doing for a while. Also, I would have rather seen this 2:00 minute spot broken up into five :20's. Because no matter how fun the animation is, 2:00 minutes of pop punk saying "ready to go," over and over again, makes me ready to go throw my computer out the window
