One of the commercials you did forget was the Burger King "King" vs Darth Vader. Otherwise, hilarious.

[CoolG777]

i get the "corporate lapdog" point, but let's face it, DV is now so iconic, he's on a par with Dracula, Frankenstein, the Wolfman etc. They've been used in advertising for virtually everything and i think it just goes to show DV's popularity. As for spin-offs and commercials ruining SW for kids....remember the Star Wars Holiday Special? unfortunately i do. lol MTFBWY

[RetinaBurnBlog]

@CoolG777 That is a fair point, but I think the difference with those iconic horror characters is that in almost every medium they're in, they are presented differently. If you saw them in an advert it would be harder to say that the character (both visually and symbolically) is the sole creation of 'X'. Furthermore, they are characters taken from novels, and so fair game in how people portray them. Darth Vader is the product of a film, and a specific 'world', a world that doesn't mesh with ours

[AbdulhameedKosa]

I want This Link

@ 1:01

[RetinaBurnBlog]

@AbdulhameedKosa I can't post links but search "Darth Vader Heidi Klum" on YouTube and you'll have it.

[mattisawesome777]

Some people just need to laugh... Jesus christ...

[The72113]

LOL SWEET

[SneakyVodka]

the currys and pc world one is rubbish

[trocoman]

This made me laugh, I thought It was fake but real adverts? To be honest George Lucas and his Star Wars legacy doesnt need this kind of propaganda. Its lame.

[MrJimj865]

Most of these adverts are terrible but i don't think it affects the films, its not a real person they are capitalising on or anything

[23Siro]

This makes me sad :(

[funniestevercomedy]

I wonder how many kids have watched Star Wars and been like "ooh, there's that guy from the advert!" Sad times.

[SkinGrindCleaver]

star wars is the shittest film ever made, well no maybe that award goes to Grease but i refuse to buy anything what Darth has commissioned.

[AidanMusik]

@SkinGrindCleaver

epic troll fail

[SkinGrindCleaver]

@AidanMusik bitch

[Devilock79]

I really liked Darth Vader before he sold out.

[kakarrot22]

Vader: Luke

Luke: What?

Vader: I am an entrepreneur!

Luke: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[fatboyzoid]

I didn't realise how many there were until I saw this!

[Onethousandsunflower]

It does soften the effect of the movies when u see the characters in adverts! but the film is so old now! not sure if it matters!

[RetinaBurnBlog]

@Onethousandsunflower The films may be old but that doesn't mean the fans are. With all the re-releases in both the cinema and on DVD/Blu-Ray, what about the new (younger) fans?

[HezekialtheAvenger]

@Onethousandsunflower They are re- releasing the films in 3D which will be alot less menacing due to the over advertisement of Darth Vader.

[Bra23we12]

@1k sun flowers.

It's important not to denigrate our heroes because they are the sum of our aspirations. True: Darth Vader is an anti hero, yet the character has elements we might respect.

There's a guy I know who lost his testicles and most of his upper left leg dragging a mate behind an APC in Afghanistan. He said the hero bit didn't last much beyond the days news and his coming home piss up. He's a chip fryer in Macdonalds now.

If we sell our hero's

We've sold another piece of ourselves.

[fastedu1]

what about Darth Niles?

[BetterTheDevilYuKnow]

Darth Vader FTW xD

[N3RDtuts]

I can't believe he sold out :'(

[ladylifecoach]

Good montage, you can't help but feel a little sad that movie icons are used in this way though :(

[VenomzEU]

Darth Vader Disliked this video lol.

[Tejoz]

@VenomzEU LOL

[DavieJones2nd]

lol

[MrChristophe156]

Say what you like about the corperations, but you can't deny that the football advert was funny as hell .

tunes one was ok

[TheDPclan]

Stormtrooper Son: What's for dinner dad?

Stomtrooper Dad: Wookie steak

Stormtrooper Son: Is it any good?

Stormtrooper Dad: It's a little Chewy

[occoldjosh]

@TheDPclan you- mum, this food is stale  your mum- So is your banter son, so is your banter.

[Jabikz]

No mini vader? :(

[RetinaBurnBlog]

@Jabikz Sadly, no. It's because he's not portrayed as the 'real' Darth Vader unlike the other adverts. It's an excellent example of how to capitalise on the Star Wars franchise without reducing it to a parody of itself.

[possessedsheep666]

ov cows

[qfas89]

Now I know where he get money for new Death Star.

[AlmegaOpha]

I'm not a SW fan, but I do respect the Vader villain and this makes me cringe.

[RetinaBurnBlog]

@AlmegaOpha Likewise.
