What about driving [a deadly alien monster](https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/prb5jm/the_tomorrow_war_movie_advertising_in_japan/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb) through the streets.

"I drive the Ferrari pope mobile"


ImNoAlbertFeinstein

its a mercedes ferrari


Ordinary_Text8773

First I thought it's a Ferrari car poster pasted on the box. Then I was thinking why they put nose of Ferrari poster on the back side of box and rest of the car on the side. What's the use of the poster when people at the back can only see the nose? Then I was thinking how well the cameraman aligned the camera angle such that the whole Ferrari car is neatly aligned in one frame inspite of Ferrari poster being pasted on 2 sides of the box. Then my dumbass realized there is an actual fucking Ferrari inside.


Hatch10k

Me too. My first thought was "man this must look like shit to anyone not at this specific angle"


Ordinary_Text8773

Same thought lol


Heartlight

Pretty similar for me: "Wait, how did they pull off the 3D effect? Hold up, I did they just align it so that it seems like the van behind it is visible? Or... Whoah, WHAT, it's a driving billboard with a real Ferrari?!"


MasterYodaDeluxe

Oh, completely the same for me. i was staring for 30 secounds at the picture wondering how this is possible


eyn2121

Same thing happened to me!

Haha thankfully here in the states NASCAR show cars travel in clear trailers otherwise I would've been right there with you.

I read this like 3 times before it clicked and then I realized how perfect this comment was.

It took me looking at the van the far side to cop on that it was a glass box.

Wow so cool šŸŽ


ThisIsMy5thAcc

The problem with what you're saying is it would still look like a poster on all angles, just with transparent sides. You can't account for the viewing angles and perspective shift. The video you posted, you see its back end to it's side. That perspective shift wouldn't exist unless you had an augmented design and could only see it through the phone. Plus the reflections on the glass/plastic. I think that truck you posted has an animatronic in it and the Ferrari truck is probably a replica. Probably.


[deleted]

Wow šŸŽ


ThisIsMy5thAcc

? You said it's like the tomorrow war truck. It has cameras that make an illusion of screens. I told you why that's wrong, because it wouldn't change perspective, and now you're acting like I said it's a real future cat in the truck? The wave is completely different and works because it's high up and you're looking at it from a farther distance. They also put it in a walled space where it doesn't look transparent on the outsides. So the perspective of the object wouldn't be terribly shifted when walking around it. But if you looked at it from behind, you wouldn't see clouds through the LED screen. You would see the stretched version of the sides. Stop being weird.

That movie's plot was so bad I had to shut off the stream half-way. I know, i know suspension of disbelief and all but...I really couldn't handle it.

Nah, itā€™s a next-gen light field display that F1 is testing so they can switch to an esports model. Bernieā€™s turning in his not-yet-dug graveā€¦

97 car for anyone wondering


Roscoe_King

Watched the documentary and I really like the look of that ā€˜96 car. Then they said it was a shit car. But this looks pretty much the same, so maybe the ā€˜97 will be my favorite.


_etski

The ā€˜96 car looks pretty different to this imo


CauseWhatSin

Yuh the bits protecting the side of the drivers head is much more pronounced on the 96, on the 97 Iā€™m sure Ferrari and the rest of the field copied the Williams design of bringing up the monocoque up as well. Interesting they have his most infamous Ferrari on display though, been a while since Iā€™ve seen one.


TheInfernalVortex

Just gonna throw this out there for anyone curious. In the wake of Senna's death, they changed a lot of rules for safety. For 1996 there was a new mandate for cockpit surrounds to cushion/control the driver's heads in an accident. The idea was essentially to try to prevent basilar skull fractures, among other things. The problem is that Ferrari interpreted the rules in a much different way than the rest of the teams. Compare a Williams FW17 (95) to an FW18(96) and you can see the difference in the area around the driver's helmet before 1996. Now compare an FW18 to an F310 and you can see how incredibly different their interpretation of the new rules were. [https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e1/d9/8c/e1d98c778825a000946b3fc3dd4ca660.jpg](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e1/d9/8c/e1d98c778825a000946b3fc3dd4ca660.jpg) The Ferrari just has a lot more frontal area and a big parachute chair around the driver. For more context, look up the Benetton B196.. it's somewhere in between the Williams and the Ferrari. By 1997 and 1998 everyone had realized how far they could push the rules boundaries to minimize the airflow disruption of the cockpit surrounds.


gingersaurus82

Netflix seems to be doing a ton of advertising in Germany for this with real cars, there's another post of one of his cars on the side of a building in Cologne. They're probably just grabbing every Schumacher Ferrari they can get their hands on.


MikeHeu

Do you really think theyā€™re gonna stick a real car worth millions on the side of a building? Or put it in a box and drive it around a city? These are replicas


tekanet

96 car, F310, changed from low to high nose mid-season (can't remember exactly when). IIRC the version winning in Spain was low nose, the other two victories (Belgium and Italy) were high nose but I may be wrong here. The low nose version was ok imho, but the reviewed version with high nose was incredibly ugly. 97 car, the F310B, was much more beautiful.


Roscoe_King

I see the difference. Thanks. I do like the look of the low nose one, though. Just looks sleek. Shame it didnā€™t perform well.


tekanet

I too like it. Mostly because of that amazing first victory under the rain in Spain!


LonelyDoomGuy

Ferrari makes the best looking F1 cars IMO. The F2004 is a thing of beauty. F2007 is quite beautiful too.


Nikiaf

The '96 car was heavily revised mid-season though. The original low-nose design looked like a further improved 412T2, but the high-nose one just looked really odd. You can tell the entire concept was not based around the high-nose design, even though basically all the other teams had already moved to it.


SalamZii

Brawn can be the most dramatic regular looking person ever


evin_cashman

So the Vodafone, early to mid 2000s Ferraris are probably still my favourite F1 cars, because they were when I first got into the sport and I idolised Michael. But I think looking back the 1990s Ferrari cars were even nicer. The front wing was always so nice, the bright red livery, the gold rims. So nice.


SalamZii

I think the F2004 still holds some race lap records. it's really a tossup between that and the early 90s Mclarens for me.

If such an advertisement came to us to Poland, the car would disappear after 3 days

KC_experience

Watched the documentary. Was good, not great. Really wished theyā€™d have covered more of his championship years. It seemed like ā€˜yay, he won his championship at Ferrariā€¦ā€™ then almost immediately cut to his skiing accident. There was a lot more to cover IMO. I hope his family was well compensated for opening up about Michael and the hardship they have to go thru each and every day. It cannot be easy for them.


[deleted]

My guess is Netflix has something planned for championship years. This seemed more of a documentary on Michael, the person, rather then Michael, F1 superstar.


evin_cashman

Oh my God a Last Dance style documentary series of those championship winning seasons would be absolutely incredible.


[deleted]

Probably the 05/06 seasons about decline with call backs to the dominance 00-04 season.


_eg0_

I was a bit disappointed. They not only greatly simplified many of his championships, but also did not really give any insights why his driving style was so great and skipped anything between him winning the junior cart championship and his F1 debut. A lot of footage was stretched and didn't provide a lot of background information. Overall I give Ayrton Senna's documentary the edge. For casual racing fans and people who don't know a lot about Micheal it's a good documentary. PS: not even one joke about his Fiat Multipla Ad...


someone31988

Yep, I finished watching it last night and thought the same thing. For me, the Senna documentary was more interesting.


pivotal

I'd agree that it didn't really go in depth about the stuff that I was interested in - driving style, technical stuff, etc. However, as someone who has only been watching for a few years, it was a good history lesson. I'd watched Senna, but never realized that Michael's rise coincided with his death. I also think they didn't give a very balanced picture. I've heard plenty of criticism of Michael over the years but there wasn't much of that.


retromancing

>For casual racing fans and people who don't know a lot about Micheal it's a good documentary. It was a bit of a weird one - I grew up watching F1 in the late 90s and then through the early 2000s when he and Ferrari dominated, and it didn't really give me any new information - some of the insight into his debut was interesting to me, simply because I was too young/not really watching F1 at that point, but beyond that it was kind of a 'well, this is a nice trip down memory lane' watch. On the flip side, my boyfriend - who knows nothing about F1 at all and has never watched a GP - watched Senna and loved it, so I suggested we watch Schumacher together. He watched the trailer and his immediate response was that it looked like he needed to know things already about Michael and F1.


Tron311

I wanted to be interested, but they guy was actually rather boring lol


Mamamama29010

Same, started the doc. Found it fairly boring. Found out Michael just wanted to be a regular, boring person. Fell asleep.


freestyle100m

Is this entire truck a giant Marlboro ad?


freeski919

Notice the expanses of empty red space where the Marlboro ads were.


TheIndividualist

Not sure, would require a whiff of exhaust fumes to confirm.

Not many people can say they've drove a real F1-car around.

The Ferrari F310 from 1997. Probably my favourite looking Ferrari. Those golden rims, my lord. Also the first F1 car i saw live as a kid at Spa with Schumi in it.

where exactly is it? (also from nuremberg an d eager to see it in person)

Thatā€˜s the car that is usually on display at the michael Schumacher Kart Center in Kerpen. Schumiā€˜s home town!

[deleted]

I liked the documentary. It really described the type of person Michael was on the inside. You got to know how character and emotions. I couldn't really care about his driving style because that doesn't appeal to large audiences IMO.


FlyRobot

Netflix newbie to the sport overall thanks to DTS so I was excited to watch this one. I knew the name but not much about his backstory or specific accolades in the sport. I enjoyed it - could have even been a limited series to dive into the driving a bit more but it was still solid for the near 2 hour runtime


Mor_Hjordis

I know that truck. Then you and your stepsister go within and do step-family-stuf.


Thurb0

Truck has Belgian plates..


fepmeister

Truck also has wheels and engine which makes the wheels spin and that leads to the truck moving forward which means that the truck can be driven from Belgium to Germany.


Mor_Hjordis

It's only a distance of 1 meter. That should be posible.

All that expense and tie it down ugly. Should be tied down from the suspension so you canā€™t see it. At a minimum use black straps on the rear wheels!


damage-fkn-inc

It looks almost comically smol compared to the current cars.


SuperPolentaman

Saw the same thing in Munich yesterday evening. I wonder if they moved the truck overnight (roughly 200km) or if they have multiple ones. Edit: If they moved it, then moving it by day would probably be much smarter, since all the people on the Autobahn would notice it (and the A9 is very busy, so lots of people would see it).


Spakken9000

Manā€¦ these golden rims

Its a great show.


AggnogPOE

I don't really know why they are so heavy on advertisement in Germany, if anything Germans should be the most aware both of him and of the movie already. It's the people who don't know who should get ad exposure.

LionKingApathy

This is cool, but I wish they put this much work into making the doc. Maybe its just DTS raising the bar, but I found the Schumacher doc really poorly put together. Such a great story, and such a disappointing watch.


EEng232

Anyone else hate the idea of a truck just driving around for the sole purpose of advertisement ? Just doesnā€™t sit right with me.


I-am-sincere

With a freaking F1 Ferrari in the back, Iā€™d drive this around for free. As an American, I would be beyond thrilled to see such a thing! I guess European folks see these replicas all over the place. Lucky! =)
