Sorry , that type of marketing always makes me indifferent to the product being marketed . Impossible to buy cool . Of course the campaign will probably be a huge success ::) :D

Impossible to buy cool..... Don't tell the Harley and Chopper guys that.

Buying stuff is how you become faux cool, not the real thing like Steve McQueen, but he's not around any more so............
Cool is something I've never had a need to be. :)

I have a "Von Dutch is DEAD" t-shirt.
Does that make me cool ?
I value it dearly. Right up there with the "Moto F-ing Guzzi" t-shirts of a few years ago.

OK, let me start this analysis/opinion by saying I'm already on the record for liking the new Indians and I really enjoyed riding (and could own) a new Scout.
I'll add that I've usually enjoyed Mark's work as an actor and have nothing personally against him or his persona.
That said
BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT

It's frustrating now, because I'm trying to teach my sons how to ride a bike with gears, because they have these little automatic shifties—you don't do anything but get on there, just rev it up. They see me doing all the kinds of tricks and stuff I can do on my bike, but they don't wanna mess with the gears. I've gotta get 'em there.
What was your first bike?
The first bike that I've actually owned myself is the new Scout. I was given a bike and then it was taken away from me about 12 to 15 years ago. We won't get into that, but yeah, the Scout is the first one that I've really owned. If I'm under contract or something, I'm not able to ride. Or if my wife is having a panic attack. But I'm figuring out cool ways to be able to ride. We just shot Daddy's Home with Will Ferrell, and Indian plays a really crucial part in the movie. So we got to ride quite a bit. I was actually riding the last three months.
So what got you back into motorcycling? Did you approach Indian?
No, they actually approached us about being a brand ambassador. I was like, "Are you kidding me? I'm very familiar with the brand, I love the bikes, and I love the new Scout, especially."

I think the bolds say it all. He could have given two craps about motorcycles, but Indian approached him with $$$ and he's trying to put the best spin on it he can and act like he really is a motorcyclist.
Sorry bud... I mean, good on ya for making the money and I hope you bring the brand exposure, maybe you'll even discover motorcycles in the process, but in that interview YOU'RE ACTING.
