Article Excerpt:

First things first: This is not in any way an endorsement of the Bing search engine/decision engine thing. I've never used it, and I'm no more inclined to after seeing this commercial than I was before. But it's a movie-themed commercial, so I thought I'd share.

In fact, it's a highly specific theme. The ad is a spoof of The Shining, and the crux of it is using Bing to find a better hotel than The Overlook. Decent premise, I suppose. I wouldn't be upset if this was a theme they stuck with for a while. It's better than the DirecTV ads, in my opinion, especially the Chris Farley one.
