Jim Carrey`s parodies on Matthew McConaughe`s Lincoln commercials boost sales by 25%
The first one is "I've been driving a Lincoln since long before anybody paid me to drive one" video (500,0000 views by now):
Then there was "Sometimes it’s better to take the long way" (The "Bull" commercial, 1.6 million views by now):
And finally "Sometimes you've got to go back, to actually move forward" (The "Intro" commercial, 1.4 miillion views by now):
And then parodies started to appear one by one...
Ellen DeGeneres`s show (4.9 million views by now):
Conan O`Brien`s show (300,000 views by now):
Southpark`s parody (300,000 views by now):
And once again, the one with Jim Carrey who keeps dead-serious look (well, most of the time) while cracking jokes like "Sometimes you have to go back to actually move forward... I mean take a big step back, like from winning an Oscar to doing a car commercial.", or when Carrey's kids tell him he was driving five miles an hour, and he replies "Not bad...for a Lincoln".
Still, beautiful, movie-like quality of filming make it just as good, if not better than the original:
The result? Lincoln sales have improved by 25 percent in October, with the MKC crossover being the bestseller. So it`s always good to be able to laugh at yourself after all.
