Saw this ad the other night. Pretty awful.

Was it Sluggo who was making a compilation DVD featuring Star Wars related ads? This one deserves to be included (if only for the cringe factor).

I actually kinda liked this one, partly for the fact that the way Darth Vader is treated is rather indicative of how the franchise is treated as a whole these days.

I was working on a compilation of Star Wars commercials, with help from Sluggo. He was doing a compilation of trailers himself, that I was giving him some help on.

Glad to have this particular ad in much nicer quality (the previous copy I had was a crummy Flash video file, I believe). The main problem that's held me up with doing the commercial compilation was all the varieties of formats I have the material in. Converting it to DVD would be a nightmare, not to mention some of it (particularly some of the older stuff) would look absolutely horrible quality-wise. I was tossing around the idea of just putting them all on DVD in their native formats as a data disc instead.
