Marvel will have a hit with this advert for Thor. It spoofs the famous Volkswagen “The Force” ad that ran for the Super Bowl and became a huge internet hit. It’s also funny in its own right. If you’ve not seen the original; you’ll still enjoy this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPNjWWQqWCA What do you think?
Not for Ewok lovers
This picture is not for Ewok lovers. I’m not even sure it’s for fans of Darth – what tune could he be singing? Could it be the Imperial March? Don’t those Ewoks look awfully Wicket Wystri Warrick? Could there have been two of them? Is Wicket the last surviving triplet? Oh my! I suspect this […]
Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer
This is a rather straight forward but also rather brilliant trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic. It’s a bit of a mass catch up that shows scenes and landscapes we’re all familiar with, introduces the Sith, the war and then characters will be familiar with. Despite these introductions this The Old Republic trailer doesn’t […]
The Force parody
You’ll recall Vokswagen’s The Force ad for the Super Bowl that went mega viral. Now we have a parody – and it’s a great one. All hail Marin Plourde aka Violent Broccoli for this re-take. Imagine if Mini Vader had actual powers. What if it wasn’t a Passat? Superb! It’s worth checking out Violent Broccoli’s […]
Bloopers and cut scenes from “The Force”
This week Geek Native was one of the cthuzillion blogs who ran the Volkswagen “The Force” video. We’re at it again. Watch as we climb on the Volks bandwagon and bring you the bloopers and scenes cut from “The Force”. Volkswagen would call this “The Making of”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM3s37fZZts My question is; aren’t all kids a […]
Volkswagen’s “The Force” Super Bowl ad
The TV ads which run during the Super Bowl (some sort of ball throwing festival, as far as I understand it) are big business. The Super Bowl attracts the attention of very many eyeballs and so advertisers spend big bucks and showcase their very best campaign messages. I hereby dub this little fellow as “Volksy […]
Alternative Star Wars is sexy and tattooed
The photographs in this blog post are a collection from Robin Cook. These are just a sample, just enough to tempt you to go check out his blog and admire the rest. Interestingly, he calls these “Part 1”. Still not a fan of tattoos.
Sexy Mrs Vader as you’ve never seen her before
It’s true that you should be keeping an eye on Geeks are Sexy. It’s not true that they concentrate on finding sexy geek images – it just so happens that sometimes that’s exactly what they do. For example, there’s this Mrs Vader image they grokked off IGN (which now seems to have been removed from […]
Darth Vader walks with you: Galaxy S on Docomo
This blog would be worse off without great ads from Japan. Starting with a Japanese ad is a good start, adding in sexy tech like the Samsung Galaxy S makes the post sound even more promising and when we can throw in some Darth Vader Star Wars. What do you think? I think I’d probably […]
Beethoven Vader
Richard Grayson is cool. He’s a pianist who gets tossed a curve ball while asking the Crossroads School for tunes to play. That’s right. Someone suggests he plays Darth Vader’s theme for Star Wars. Not only does Grayson step up to mark he produces a Vader theme deep with feeling. Gosh, well, it’s so emmo […]
