It's a rejected Sony ad for going green. Don't know why it got the boot.

I personally don't like the ad.

I make my own green choices and certainly don't want to be threatened to make those choices.
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!

Not Sony. It's a European campaign founded by a UK environmental activist group. There was lots of negative fallout over it.

Hard to imagine that a group of executives sat in a screening room and watched that and thought that was a good idea.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10:10
On Friday 1 October 2010, 10:10 released a short film in which schoolchildren and office workers are summarily and gruesomely executed for not pledging a 10% reduction in their carbon emissions to participating employers and educators.[43] Although originally planned to be shown in cinema and television advertisements, 10:10 removed the film from their website and YouTube later on the same day following negative publicity[44] and apologised for "miss[ing] the mark".[43]

Sony was one of the main supporters.

i love the idea, but can definitely understand it not being good for general public viewing. :)
