neat Star Wars themed commercials

Here’s a crossover commercial featuring Colonel Sanders from KFC, the Pizza Hut girl, and the Chihuahua from Taco Bell as they team up to battle the evil droids from Star Wars.  Can you imagine Colonel Sanders with a lightsaber?  And the three of those people battling an army?  It’s all in the video.

Would you play Darth Vader in a round of golf for money?  It seems like a bad idea.  But these guys tried it, and, well, you can see what happens.  There are several other Star Wars related commercials for Spike TV in this video.

There is much to be learned…

trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic

Recently I came upon a new Star Wars trailer, for Star Wars: The Old Republic.  The story picks up after Knights of the Republic, but is set 3,000 years before the timeline of the Star Wars movies.

For fans of the Star Wars movies, let me warn you that this will make you want more.  This trailer is action-packed!  (And it’s not for the faint of heart.)   The story sounds good, too.

The trailer is for an upcoming MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) video game.  I wish it were an upcoming movie!  That’s certainly nothing against video games, but I just don’t have time to play an MMO that much, and this premise would make a great movie.

I’ve heard that the Star Wars movie series is supposed to be over, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more made.  There is so much story still unused, and even if it features all new characters, such a movie would still be awesome.  This trailer is proof of that.

caption contest, Santa and Stormtroopers

It’s a Monday, and it’s December now, so how about a Christmas-themed caption contest?  It sounds like a plan to me.   It works like always (if you aren’t familiar with them, I’ll explain).   I’ll post a picture, and you write a caption to go with it.   The caption can be dialogue from the people in the picture or analysis or commentary or just something funny to go with it.   Since a picture is worth a thousand words, there’s a lot of potential.  🙂

For this week’s picture, here’s Santa Claus being escorted down an escalator by Imperial Stormtroopers.  I have no idea what’s going on there, so perhaps we can figure something out.
