These videos are all very amusing, true.

What strikes me is that a mainstream retailer like J. C. Penny is finally starting to understand and is actively attempting to exploit the power of viral media. With Michigan trying so hard to break into filmmaking, maybe Michigan could focus more energy on prying open this particular niche [[where potential customers want to watch these new ads for their entertainment value alone) instead of trying to compete against an entrenched Hollywood on their traditional turf.

It seems to me that niche is underserved and likely to grow. Michigan has a lot of quirky talent [[Tim Allen, Hell, MI, etc., etc.) that might just be able to get a toe-hold in this burgeoning market.

[[I have no personal interest in this other than wishing Michigan to thrive.)
