This new Adidas commercial... I'm not sure how I feel about it. On the one hand it's really cool, and they did a great job overlaying the new celebrities over the old characters. On the other hand, however, it feels a bit sacreligious...

feels a little forced, but it's fun.
I like it, could stand to see more random shit like it.
On the one hand it's really cool, really, really, really, really really REALLY lame.
Had to fix that for you.

Haha Spanky. I loved this. Also, I thought Snoop shoulda said, "I don't like his testicle face..." "And I don't like you either, beef curtain-lookin' fool!"

At least Greedo didn't shoot first.

no more sacreligious or lame than anything Lucas did to his movies. Anyone remember the retarded musical sequence he awkwardly stuck in Return of the Jedi? ...Yeah, i also have tried to forget.
Ummmm.....Ian Brown.....why?

"Celebrate Originality"?
That was like a cover song commercial. As unoriginal as you can get. ??

I always thought it was Hey Did It
:-P
Two minutes of ripping off Star Wars (a franchise that did a lot of ripping off itself) and the message we're supposed to take away from that is to be original.
Fucking corporate bullshit.

Who the hell was the dude who shoot Guido? (in this ad. I know it was Han)
It's driving me crazy.
I know it's not the guy from Bloodhound Gang, but that's my default answer.

I was down with Daft Punk...
And I always agree with Snoop dogg...he has some sort of power that makes me enjoy anything he's in.
But I lost all respect when the tag line was about being original...
Seriously.

I think it's that one actor from "She's Way Out of My League"
I let it slide because I'm pretty sure he's a Star Wars fan.

And everyone knows it's Greedo, right?
Is Guido some joke that's going above my head?

You are correct sir!
I actually recognized him from his appearances on Are You Afraid of The Dark.
Thank's Jelly Box and IMDB!

I see what you're saying.
But...it's his name.

Lucas has dumped all the excrement he can on his original films. Now he's opened them up for others to do the same.

Dude with the pistol is from a bunch of Seth Rogen movies, Daft Punk dudes, and some non-NHL athlete guy, probably Tom Brady or something. That's really all I got.
Video was well done, audio was kinda shitty, like when the two guys first throw that blue thing, you hear it too clearly, should have had more back ground noise, I dunno, maybe bar sounds.

Look right under the video. Lists them all.

If you don't recognize someone, an equally unrecognizable name won't help.

The DJ at the beginning: Neil Armstrong (not the moon guy, DJ of Jay-Z). The chick at the bar: Ciara. The guy next to Noel Gallagher ("Oasis guy"): Ian Brown ("Stone Roses guy"). Guy who shoots Greedo: Jay Baruchel. The guy getting in the negotiating with Greedo: David Beckham (football player). Guy in the background with the eye-patch: Franz Beckenbauer (former football player).
All in all: besides from Snoop, Becks and the Kaiser a pretty uninspired collection of semi-famous has-beens and whos-thats.
A wretched hive of neverwuzzes and howdeydodats.

I liked the part where Captain Picard and Spock come in. So this is a commercial about football? I love football. I love when they hit home runs and then kick the wickets.

Seriously. Celebrate originality by being unoriginal.
It's basically the catchphrase of the last 10 years.

Ok ok, so they have shitty product to match shitty video. Mind you there's some items there that I do like, just none that I would wear out of the house. For instance, the Vadar shirt that looks like a crappy Halloween costume. Putting that on would make you a mark.
I know, I wouldn't want to get catched fucking a dead crack-whore in one of these tees. But some of the shoes are pretty sweet.
