"Target is getting ready to launch a pretty funny ad campaign that included quite a list of celebrities, but of particular interest is the one with Lord Vader and Heidi Klum. I'm not sure when the Target campaign goes live, but we have permission to give you a sneak preview now!"

here's the link to the qt clip: http://www.theforce.net/holonet/newspics/target/heidarth_genvir.mov

Yumm, Heidi Klum. She is so hot. Anyways, that was a pretty funny commercial.

So. ridiculously. random!

but entertaining none the less.

 

[munkle]

I'd go to the dark side for a night with Heidi Klum!

 

[virividox]

hahah odd combo but entertaining

 

[~Shard~]

Darth Vader is such a bastard. I admire him.

 

[Foxer]

He, and other Star Wras characters, will also be doing Sportscenter commercials soon for ESPN. I read this a few weeks ago.

 

[~Shard~]

All thanks to Mr. Lucas's master plan, no doubt...

 

[redAPPLE]

and it is about... what?

 

[PixelFactory]

Target is promoting thier Holiday Sale for Thanksgiving. They are giving you a free wake up call so you don't miss when the sale starts. Pretty smart campaign. Ad in the Star Wars stuff and Lucas is reminding people that Episode 3 is coming soon and sells some more merchandise during the xmas season.

 

[wdlove]

A very cute commercial. Certainly not the usual Lord Vader, isn't exuding presence of power and the Dark Side. It sure will help to hype the coming of Star War's 3 nest year.

I think in the unrated version, as well as breathing heavy, a red light saber shaft should start slowly rising from his lap....

I'd go over for 3 1/2 minutes with Heidi Klum

Ha!

Now I will show you the true power of the dark side.

It will take me at least a month before I can watch my SW Dvds or watch the epIII trailer without thinking of this.

Glad to have contributed...

yeah, more proof that lucas has lost his ***** mind.


in a couple year they'll release a "special edition" of that commercial which stars Giselle Bundchen instead of heidi. Lucas will just say "well, we didnt have the time to get who we really wanted, and i think giselle is more vader's type."

Yep, it's pretty much all about he money with Lucas now (and has been for quite some time.) Do you know how much money a person would have spent if they bought every VHS and DVD release of SW that he put out?! The Special Edition, the Special Edition with extra features, Ep I on VHS because he wasn't going to release it on DVD, then EP I on DVD, now the original trilogy again, on DVD - and I'm missing a few iterations and permutations in there as well. Once Ep III comes out, then he'll release that on DVD, then he'll release Eps. I, II and II in a box set, then re-release them as "Special Editions" with extra footage and crap, then he'll release a master box set with all 6 movies on DVD in it, charge people $200 for it, and then do it all over again when HD DVD comes out and people need to "upgrade" their SW collection. Give me a break.

with all that $$, you would think he would do something about that god-awful neck of his. looks like he has an extremely long chin or something.

Either that, or it's all plastic surgery and he's actually a Rodian in disguise!

That would at least explain why he's "greed"y...

 

[Sun Baked]

Yes, you'd at least expect him to sign with GE.

... Or move over to the REAL dark side...

I think I'll have them wake me up just for the fun of it, definitely vader, I wonder how I can record that conversation.
