Qwest - Every Movie

A tired man goes into a cheap motel in the middle of nowhere and asks about amenities. When he asks about entertainment, the girl responds "all rooms have every movie ever made in any language anytime, day or night."

This Qwest ad aired in 1999 and 2000 and was before website such as YouTube or cable services such as OnDemand were available.

It was shot at Roy's Motel and Cafe, a historic Route 66 landmark in Amboy, California, in 1999.

I remember feeling really upbeat about the future when I saw this commercial in 1999.

rainy night, looking like blade runner, girl walks into newspaper stand asking for an obscure book and the he tells her "we have every book ever written"etc.

Other one was a diner in the middle of a desert and a customer asks the owner what's on the jukebox and he says"Every song ever recorded by every artist" etc.

they were great commercials, but I can't find them anywhere.

Time travel? She is referring to any movie made at that time ( once everyone has fast internet -2012 and not the case, see the link if you want to get upset). As far as ad is concerned. Yes that is right, I download ANY MOVIE MADE, IN ANY LANGUAGE(almost) AT ANYTIME (on demand not future) - webpass,net, takes me 7min to download a 700mb rip using Piratebay/uTorrent. Sad not everyone has what I got

Everyone is ignoring the obvious. "Every movie ever made in any language anytime, day or night" means Time travel. For example: all 7 harry potter movies. All three hunger games movies, The good spider man and batman movies. It would also be a boon to collectors. Just imagine watching lost films like 1913s 'Saved from the Titanic' starring Dorothy Gibson who survived the sinking. Sentimental Tommy the Paramount 1921 blockbuster or The Gulf Between, the first film ever to be shot in Technicolor?

Probably because it is Willem Dafoe. . .

The voice-over actor at the end sounds like Willem Dafoe.

At Roy's Motel Cafe in Amboy that same front desk in the motel lobby is still there. It was built in the lobby so it has always been too big to remove. You can come and see through the glass windows. Roy's Motel Cafe is going to reopen soon. It is currently Roy's Gasoline.
