I think it's safe to say The Force Awakens has been spawning some of the best tie-in commercials ever. Earlier this week we were treated to an incredible Verzon TV spot, and before that Energizer released a memorable commercial. Now the British telecommunications provider O2 has gotten in on the craze with a brand new TV spot that features the three Droid stars of Episode VII. Once again, the commercial plays out like a scene from the film itself, showing R2-D2 and C-3PO walking through the desert on what we can assume is Jakku. Later BB-8 appears and the three meet near some moisture vaporators. This ad is especially significant because it is only the second time we've seen Threepio in action with his new red arm(the aforementioned Energizer commercial was the first). It's also great to hear new dialogue from the one and only Anthony Daniels as Threepio. I also don't believe we've heard BB-8 speak, or beep, this much before.

Bravo to O2 for creating yet another stunning TV spot! Hopefully plenty more ads are coming soon.

ReplyDeleteBB8 The jar jar of the future
ReplyDeleteNassau. Way off! Jar Jar truly was an insult. Bb8 is actually quite clever and inventive! Have to disagree.

ReplyDeleteIs there an action-axis in other galaxies?... First BB8 enters from right... Then, it enters from left... Who in hell have directed this? A side of me CAN'T believe JJ were behind this commercial. I can't, I can't.... Lucaspalm!
ReplyDeleteIdk Anthony Daniels' delivery is rather poor in this imo.
ReplyDeleteChopper doesn't count.
