Currys & PC World Megastores TV Ad Director's Cut

[itsakr3wthing]

lmfao @ 0:34, R2, haha

[Omnitrix8]

PC WORLD ARE JUST MONEY GRABBING THIEVES. ORDER ONLINE AND THEY WILL WITHOLD YOUR MONEY WITHOUT DELIVERING THE GOODS! ITS HAPPENED TO SO MANY PEOPLE!

[MultiObligation]

Do NOT take your custom to PC World/Currys/Dixons, they're just money grabbers who don't honour warranties and aren't interested in providing a proper service, they just want to flog you some expensive shit and never see you again.

That said, it's a very good advert and you can see why people are tricked into dealing with these thieves.

[richardmckenzie01]

DEar PC WORLD

PLEASE COULD YOU TELL ME IF MY LAPTOP BATTERY IS PART OF THE RECALL OR NOT. I HAVE CONTACTED CUSTOMER SERVICES, THEY TOLD ME THAT COMSUMABLES ARE NOT PART OF THE SALES OF GOOD ACT.

[WillShakespeare2007]

Enjoyed the advert but you have to wonder is Lucas would actually draw the line anywhere at selling what used to be a great film series. It is now embarrassing to say you liked Star Wars even as a kid.

[GrashFilms]

George Lucas will find a way to ruin this.

[delticsi]

this is the best advert about the wonders of technology so far

[Ent666mbed]

That really felt like R2/C3PO banter. Classic.

[MGSmainthemeBACK]

there's r2's opinion of the force unleshed 2... what a crappy game, but awesome commercial, glad they didn't used cgi shit!!

[bucsanszki]

FENOMENÁLIS!

[Gregor0the0biker]

I think the noises that R2-D2 are awesome!

[andrewkingham]

I love this ad, but Currys/PC World have some of the most retarded staff alive. Don't ask if you can "help me", you won't be able to. Just go back to smoking outside.

[benpetben]

1:00

[masamiya081356]

cool!!



[Seagerash]

R2D2 gives better customer service than PC world and Currys....

[richardmckenzie01]

They send me spam and when i reply to aske to remove the spam they blacklist me

[335925]

I went to currys to by a TV last saturday , after a long time talking with the seller I decided to buy the tv when I was making payment they told me that no have the tv in stock , they promissed me that the tv will arrive thursday following week I was very excited waiting my new 50 inches tv plasma 3D , but they rung me telling that they no will have the tv for thursday and I am waiting the tv arrives , I dont know how long it will take , I am not happy with currys and pc world .

[DonBelliott]

@335925 is it the 50 inch Samsung? Had a lot of problems due to demand.

[achievements4all]

the 13 people who disliked the video are the various Currys PC World Megastore managers. They disliked the video because R2 and 3PO broke into 13 different stores before going home :D

[lolmattt]

This commercial makes me happy :D

[richardmckenzie01]

I bought a laptop from currys, exdemo, took it home it was password protected i tried returning it they wanted £50 to remove THEIR password.

I also bought a keyboard within 3 weeks it fucked up, but they claim its wear and tear

[tiktok360]

hahaha r2d2 screaming :D

[tiktok360]

hahaha r2d2 screaming :D

[justmeandyoumusic]

0:42

[squareeyes2010]

0.57 what would you suggest? lol

[Coldwrath]

Madness?....THIS IS Currys & PC World Megastore

[richardmckenzie01]

Of course c3po was built by Darth Vader. I think that if he was in charge he would be able to operat a better customer service

[3889615]

On muuten helvetin hyvä mainos....

[richiunit]

I bet Currys & PCWorld really do leave everything on at night!

But NO annoying staff approach them wanting a sale commission!!

[monikatech]

very cool video!!!

[MJHDvideos]

Great ad! :)

[2009stephaniie]

0:42

WOW!!!!!!!!!

LMAO

press it over and over again

LMAO XD

[inr21sevier]

hahaha yes r2d2 hates the ps3 oh ya you go droid! @YourMegastores

[gweggypoos]

0:36

REALLY missed a trick not putting Han in that fridge.

[theseamus]

this commercial is better than the prequels

This is the essence of star wars

[okobi]

@theseamus You dis the prequels because you love them so much.

[Lightnation63]

Best ad ever seen!

[Bambilicious1251]

This is a really sad thing to say but I almost cried when I saw these two back together again after all these years. I think it was the Han & Leia theme music that set me off.

Whoever made this advert did a great job!

[MrGBH]

This still freaks me the heck out.

[lDontForget]

0:43 Fucking LAWL.

[NasriBoi10]

My uncle made this tv advert so its my favourite tv ad ever and its soo awesome and funny :) i love C3PO

[underworldmad1]

that was the best advert ever !!!!

[karadan100]

That advert cost Currys....Wait for it.....

48million quid!

[advancedflea]

@karadan100 Try 2 million.

[gamevidsproductions]

0:58 the funniest thing r2 has ever done

[SammyJoeTube]

BEST. ADVERT. EVER!

[0001NAMGP]

Excellent stuff! There should be more stuff like this on TV. =)

[daftbottv]

I don't know what it is about those two... maybe it's because I've been up so late, but anytime I see Threepio and Artoo i get really happy. I've never heard of this place but now I'm gonna seek them out when I build my next gaming rig.

[cluckingmad88]

This is like a nerds greatest dream star wars, pc world and currys all together. We need more adverts with sci-fi legends!

[suki9992]

OMG what an awesome advert. So true to the characters. How they pulled it off I can't imagine. Well Done :)

[Lagerlot]

Comet should get Shatner to do a star trek ad now!

[CMTOM]

Too awesome

[Sk8Dyrdek]

My uncle is my best friend and when I was little me and him would watch Star Wars every day. I still watch it, but haven't with him for a long time. Oh how I miss those days. ):

[greasyleftwing]

this should end with the two robots askin for a product n bein told there arent any in stock

[tristianhill1]

0:47. I actually LOL'd. Really funny

[kaptenmax]

............GEEEEORGE LUUUUCAAAAAAS !!! I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS.

[MaskedMan66]

Utterly delightful! Amazing how many movie refernces they worked in. Avery heartwarming ad, especially when the droids are dancing.

[Abzdefgee]

I love it when the camera flashes and R2-D2 goess wahhhh

[spidey8vader]

C-3P0 and R2-D2 are without doubt the best double act ever.

[UhClaire]

R2-D2 loves Henrietta Hover. Henry will NOT be happy.

[MaskedMan66]

@UhClaire So THAT'S where Artie-Deco of "Hardware Wars" came from!

[atmtrooper]

Respect to both R2 handlers from the R2 handlers club and Rebel Legion UK well done boys

[Thingimibob1]

Why can't all adverts be like this, instead of that stupid Lloyds advert with the train and Churchill the nodding dog?

[Perer90]

I think adding a couple of Jawas taking a few resistors and capacitors out of something would have topped it off...

[BenMatthews7825]

LOVE IT :)

[IHazMuffinzX]

Thats awesome. (: 

[NinjaKMoovies]

Sorry, since the 70s - everyone KNEW 3CPO was gay. Read the MAD Magazine with the Star Wars story... back when MAD was funny.

[webboffin]

Am I the only one who is missing this supposed hand at 0:32?

[velanapontinha]

@webboffin There is an elbow, not a hand. I think it's a cameraman.

[ljoch88]

@webboffin

saw the hand lol !

[webboffin]

9 Siths watched this advert.

[MrStonecold69]

i always knew C3PO was gay

[RDarth]

UK commercials are so much better than ours. Best Buy could never think of this.

[patch0file]

That was outstanding.

[littledragon88]

If you look at 0:31, you will notice a hand controlling the small robot on the left corner of the screen, just next to C3PO's right knee :D!!!

[TheDrumSounds]

truley epic LOVED IT!

[KigamiTV]

Thumb up if you have spooted the hand at 0:32

[neoduke007]

now that's a good advert! :O

Someone put a lot of work into planning that, getting the budget aproved for that, getting the costumes, etc... :O

One of the best ads I have seen in a loooong time and I'm not even a particularly big Star Wars fan

[sydcansam]

Hand at 0:31 controlling vacuum :-/

[daftbottv]

@sydcansam what are you talking about?

[FarfetchdForDinner]

@sydcansam YOU MEAN THEYRE NOT REAL?! Actually, it makes me laugh to be able to be able to unintentionally see how they did it xD

[Rhetorikol]

@sydcansam Haha! Good find!

[helohelo]

what kind of bullshit of this? Starwars is a movie about a type 3 civilization, the shitty electronics in that store is like stones and sands to us.

[BarryDennen12]

So what if it's a shameless cash in? It's really cute. Haha. 

[ejicon]

Awesome... Do I smell a 1 Million dollar budget for this?

C'mon FRY'S ELECTRONICS..... Where are YOUR ads? :D

[MatthewDuggan1]

@ejicon times that by 48 and you there!!!

[FluorescentTeddy]

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!

[MosesHall84]

George "whoring out your childhood memories" Lucas Strikes Again!

[EmperorOfMars]

How rude!!!

[gjk1980]

6 people are dickheads

[adster]

George Lucas gonna sue somebody!

[triforceman12]

@adster Uh... Not if the company got permission (with some sort of monetary offer to George Lucas) from George Lucas...

[springbrucesteen]

that echo in the washing machine is superb

best advert ever

[proceedapathy]

:|:|:|

[gimmesomechange]

"Well what do you suggest?"

*R2D2 destroys the screen* LMAO.

[BruceGoose03]

Very awesome! I like when R2 saw the little pink vacuum and was all excited. I think R2 has a robot crush!

Maybe those two can make some "Rock, robot rock."

[mallinersha]

Scared of BestBuy much?

[shapowal]

@mallinersha

Heard of BestBuy much?

[mallinersha]

@shapowal

Yes, thanks - bestbuy. co .uk /page/custom.aspx?PageName=Sto­re%20Locator

[MidnightBlue6969]

@mallinersha why would an advert ,aimed at the UK market, be scared of an American company??

[mallinersha]

@MidnightBlue6969

Because BestBuy now opening stores right next to them across the UK maybe? Come out from under your rock, it's warm outside.

[bongorocks]

@mallinersha

It's true, Best Buy have launched over here. Thought they were going to take the UK by storm. But the US model has not worked. Their store opening programme is severely stunted on the back of v poor slaes. Simply hasn't caught the imagination. They are losing the battle big time.

[reusol]

PC world is not one of the greatest stores ever. it is the shittist, filled with people who know nothing

[bugface11]

OMG

LOL AT 0:59 they broke the T.V

[elektronikjunkie]

theres a person hiding @ 0:33 :D

[IbenStark]

@elektronikjunkie Its a face on a display.

[elektronikjunkie]

@IbenStark nope its a dude hiding behind a hoover ;)

[elektronikjunkie]

lol at the person hiding @ 0:33 :D

[story07]

R2 just owned by nikon lol

[MonsieurSansHonte]

Hmm.... Adidas?

[48GMo24]

R2 vs. Camera made me LOL

[FanMadMovies]

fantastic ! Better than movies  , 1,2,3 ...lol...

[da404lewzer]

@FanMadMovies LOL

[jdoakley88]

anyone noticed the hand?

[Ikeaunited]

@jdoakley88 yeah i spotted it too mate....ruined it a little bit...wen C-3PO was talking to the robot carpet cleaner

[Relic23]

@jdoakley88 What hand?

[Relic23]

@jdoakley88 Nevermind, I just saw it, lol.

[1974cpdmm]

Love it! Glad to see a club member's droid made it to the big times!

[kramkidder1]

Were's Security when you need them...

[shortinos]

It's awesome.....it's a shame their customer service is shit.

[ImLikeSoOffendedYeah]

Lol they should have bought whateverhappens!

[lifesgamble1]

VERY APPEALING TO GEEKS AND STAR TREK FANS ..... ENJOY YOU TREKIES LOL :)

[droidbait]

@lifesgamble1 trekkies? how very dare you say this is star trek! this is star WARS!!!

[supermansamuel]

Lol I went there and played eminem toy soldiers uncensored version on the loud speakers, fucking hilarious XD

[alfish18]

Superb!

[dm1782]

Best advert ever....

[MagicAlDF]

Threepio trivia: in all of the original trilogy, Threepio's right leg is silver below the knee, to suggest a mismatched replacement part. Revenge of the Sith is the only movie showing him in perfect condition and polished to a mirror shine, requiring ILM to remove the camera crew's reflection frame by frame.

[LDtheBrachio]

AWESOME!!

[PhsykoOmen]

lol R2 doesnt like TFUII.

[thedrivingmind]

Good ad, shame they're over priced tosh!

[invasion100]

fantastic - classic!!

[Goolz]

still wont make me shop there.

[charlychoc1]

AMAZING! whole family was glued to the TV

[steveofclaygate]

Love it!

[MrDisc000]

theres more than a Hand at 0:32

There's also a full man behind that hoover watch it blown up very carefully ;-)

[csharpconsulting]

Genius - sounds, colors, original quotes

[lohphat]

That advert director has more comedic timing that hack Lucas EVER had. They should have fired Lucas for the prequels and hired this guy.

[PhsykoOmen]

@lohphat yeah ok,dont forget you have mr Lucas to thank for the whole thing in the first place.

[sw35xm]

This was amazingly funny.

[SunridgeLodge]

Goosebumps all over again....luv it!

[Thekaratekid101]

Who else sees the hand at 0:32?

[simongargette]

very splendid!

[zakariashartley]

I used to work for these bastards... however, this is a boss campaign

[LaughingPsycho]

Anthony Daniels will appear in any old shite. Good advert though.

Currys/PC World obviously want to increase sales to 40 year old virgins.

[www501stlegioncouk]

OMG THAT IS THE BEST ADVERT EVER!!!!!!

[flyguydotnet]

Brilliant!

[daveghaxton]

Is the dialogue straight from the films and is it Kenny and Anthony involved?

[kiwikind]

@daveghaxton It's all new dialogue, and that is Anthony in the suit. But R2 was remote controlled, and his "dialogue" was taken from the films. We tried to make it as authentic as possible, hence using the transitions, real music and sfx.

[daveghaxton]

@kiwikind In that case,well done......its a fantastic ad.....

[Starkiller2187]

Cool extra footage!

[markenfaktor]

Congratulions! This is the new markenfaktor advert of the week!

-> Find us on Facebook...

[boldboy73]

George, you're such a sell out. You are the new Kerry Katona.

Only with a beard.

You raped me, George Lucas. I hope you're proud.

I have made my own video for you George. It's on my page.

Not that you'll have time to watch it, what with you making that new Darth Vader ad for Farmfoods.

[sabrina19908]

Bloody british tv at its best!! lol fantastic ad bring on the next 1?? :)

[ElvenStain]

well this was pretty good commercial
