I Find Everyone in This Just Dance 4 Launch Trailer Incredibly Upsetting

Their faux-joy is causing me physical pain. That's probably not the intended effect, right?

I'm not sure if this is core enough for my likings. Have some coffee shop hipsters talk about it, then come back to me.

Only if said hipster draws a slice of apple pie on a 3DS and tells me that he/she isn't a gamer.

It is a simple thing to tell which trailers are posted by Alex by only reading the subheading. 100% snark every time.

Alright terrible trailer aside, can I just say I hate the white shadow people they have on screen for the Just Dance games? I can't even tell you why but they actually make me angry. I HATE THEM.

There were about 1000 different stereotypes flashing across the screen in the blink of an eye. And I didn't relate to any of them.

Hate, loathing, disgust ... the English language has failed me as those words just don't do my thoughts regarding this any justice whatsoever.

The only thing this trailer says to me is that if I buy this game, I am already like those people in the trailer, or I will turn into them. The first one is an insult. The second is a warning. Either way, I'm not buying this.

Your acknowledgement of the trend is not incorrect, but I wonder if this particular news post is the place to bring it up.

I mean, this ad is objectively gut-wrenching.

Snarky headline? I don't even need to check who wrote it at this point.
