VIDEO: Taiwanese animation of Super Bowl commercials includes Darth Vader
A. Isaac How do you make a viral Super Bowl commercial? Well, it appears the folks at NMATV have established what the viewing audience enjoys.
Etrade babies…check.
Sex…check.
Beer…check.
Darth Vader throwing the Emperor down a hole. Wait, what?
While I usually enjoy these animations, I have to say, I’m utterly confused as to why Star Wars makes an appearance here. The sci-fi community has moved on from that series right? At least make a Lord of the Rings reference or something. I’d even accept a crack on Harry Potter still attending school despite the fact he’s not a tenured professor at Hogwarts yet.
But Vader throwing the Emperor? Nah, that’s like a weak 1980s pop culture reference. Try harder next time team!
