Yeah, it's a parody of those Aussie tourist ads (we get them here so we're familiar with them), but it was actually made by a New Zealand consumer affairs show called Fair Go. They do goofy sketches like that every now and then, and I guess it goes along with the idea that they are dedicated to exposing the truth behind overly-positive advertising.

VMS took care of the place I live now. thumleft

Originally from these two places. All the videos suck in my opinion and they need better ones but eh.

The official one for Cuba (or as close to official that I can find):

An unofficial Cuba one for a private touring group:

This is the newest ad Brazil had released in preparation for the 2014 World Cup.

Man, I really want to visit New York someday. Even though the things being advertised in the song (big crowds and cut-throat competition) are actually things that I hate. It just seems so big and pretty. A city so impressive that a superhero can spend his entire career protecting it!

I can't really do that. The last big thing to happened here is a chemical plant caught on fire.

Not my town, but it's very close to me. Definitely looks like the place to be, no? Good place to raise a family and stuff.

I don't really want to post a tourism video for New Orleans because they don't define the city too well. New Orleans is not just a party city or Mardi Gras 24/7. To understand the city, one should come to the city. Avoid indulging in the mess that is Bourbon Street and come see the Rebirth Brass Band on Tuesday at the Maple Leaf or take a stroll in Audubon Park. Embrace the local culture and understand why we feel the great importance in defending New Orleans through hell or high water. Make your way down to parkway bakery, grab an abita, and relax: You're in one of the greatest cities in the world.
