"You have to ensure that the detail is correct"

Or so says whatsisface in this official Lions vid.
That obviously doesn't apply to the marketers who made this, cramming multiple pieces of bullshit into 2 minutes 20 secs.
0:13 - Mt Taranaki. The Lions are not playing in Taranaki.
0:25 - establishing shot of Eden Park sign is followed by interior shots of Albany Stadium (known as QBE stadium due to sponsorship). The Lions aren't playing there (but are sponsored by QBE...)
0:31 - no one's going to need a cooling mist in NZ in June.
0:33 - NZ roads are not the best but there are no unmarked country roads like that linking any of the cities the Lions are playing in.
0:43 - Albany Stadium again
1:02 - Albany...
1:03 - Lansdowne Park, Blenheim, in the South Island. The nearest the Lions will get to Blenheim is Wellington, in the North Island. The Lions haven't played in Blenheim since 1977's 26-match tour.
1:07 Skyline of Auckland seems to be missing a couple of buildings. This stock shot is probably over 10 years old.
1:08 Aerial shot of Jade Stadium. Although the Lions will be playing in Christchurch, it won't be here. Jade was rendered unusable by the 2011 Earthquake. Mind you, by then the Deans stand had been completed which isn't in this shot.
1:40 you do not test sportswear by standing bolt upright in a shop.
2.05 "You have to ensure that the detail is correct". Except for in promo videos, apparently.
