This is a Volkswagen Super Bowl teaser commercial (because those exist now) featuring a bunch of dogs barking out the Imperial March . It was sent to me by Geekologie Reader Robert, who you might remember made the original AT-AT dog costume . Apparently he sent his plans to a girl who made her own, and is now reaping the benefits. People: they will rip you off. Reminds me of the time everyday somebody finds an article on Geekologie, posts it on their own site, links to a different source, BUT DOESN’T BOTHER CHANGING THE FILE NAME I MADE FOR THE PICTURE. I know, I know — first world blogging problems. I’ll still f***ing cut you. Hit the jump for the video.

Because 900-year old Jedi masters can’t survive on Dagobah swamp stew and dragonlizard dicks alone, here’s Yoda in a Japanese advertisement for Nissin Cup Noodles . I’m not really sure what the relationship between Yoda and ramen is supposed to be, but my guess is a sexual one . You suck ass, George! Hit the jump for the great, now I’m hungry.

This is a short commercial for the Nintendo 3DS release of ‘ Ocarina of Time ‘ starring Robin Williams and his daughter Zelda, WHO READS GEEKOLOGIE and was named after Princess Zelda in 1989 after only the first two games had come out. Thankfully, he’d only played the first at the time and not ‘ The Adventure of Link ‘, because there’s no way he could have played that one and not named her ‘Seriously, F*** That Last Palace’. I still haven’t beat that shit. Hit the jump for the commercial, along with a 4:00 interview of the two talking about why she was named Zelda, in which Robin clarifies it’s not because of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife (although that is where Miyamoto originally got the name).

Nice Stark mug. Remember Volkswagen’s Superbowl commercial featuring the lil Vader who couldn’t harness The Force that captivated audiences and stole our hearts ? Well this is a Marvel parody advertising the new Thor movie that, from what I’ve seen so far, may or may yes suck Zeus’ proverbial lightning rod. I’m talking about his wiener, folks. It shoots lighting and can turn a lover into a tropical storm. I grabbed it once over the dividing wall of two urinals and turned into a low-pressure system . True story. Hit the jump for the lil Thor in action.

This is a short commercial for the new 2011 Dodge Charger, which advertises the vehicle as the leader of the human resistance against robots . They really should have run that by me first aside, I’ll allow it. And not just because I’m hoping to score a free one for posting this, but I did park my car at the bar, take a cab home, and forget which bar it was at. That was almost five months ago. I f***ing hate walking. Hit the jump for the anti-robot advertisement.

This is a fan-made commercial by 29-year-old Ben McCambridge (who spent $6K of his own money to create it) for the PS3 called ‘Kids’. It shows young children cast in the following roles to demonstrate all the fantasy-fun to be had playing video games : 1. Middle school bully beater-upper 2. Astronaut 3. Football All-star 4. Hobbit 5. Soldiers at war 5. Promiscuously dressed teen trying to sneak out of the house to meet her boyfriend while her mom and step-dad argue in the kitchen Admittedly, the commercial was very well made, I’m just not sure about the message it’s sending. WHEN YOU’RE SIX-YEARS OLD YOU DON’T NEED HYPER-REALISTIC VIDEO GAMES TO HAVE A GOOD TIME. Wanna be an astronaut? Sit in a laundry basket with tinfoil wrapped around your head. Want to play Lord of the Rings ? Get a couple friends together and hit each other with sticks in the woods. You’ve gotta use your imaginations while you’ve still got ‘em! LIFE DOESN’T GET ANY EASIER. Soon you’re gonna be older and actually NEED video games to escape from reality. Plus booze. Can’t forget about the booze. *glug glug* Oh yeah, f***in’ loving life over here. Hit the jump for the worthwhile commercial.

This is a fake-ass commercial for Super Harmony, an eHarmony knock-off for people who are or want to date superheroes/villains (NOT ugly people ). I tried applying, but they were all, “dammit GW, you’re more of a demigod than a superhero .” And I was all, “I LIKE DUDES IN TIGHTS!” The video isn’t particularly knee-slapping, but it did have a couple moments. What it didn’t have was Emma Frost, Rogue or Supergirl in the dating pool, making it far less a pool you’d actually want to get in, and more of a lukewarm hot-tub filled with superdudes daring each other to take their bottoms off. *dives in off patio lounger* Hit the jump for 2:30 of superdatin’.

Cheer up bro, that’s a good lookin’ samwich! Because you should never make people wait to see the 1-minute commercial you’re paying $6-million to air during the Super Bowl, this is Volkswagen’s Star Wars inspired ad. I don’t want to ruin it for you, but I’m pretty sure that kid not only tried to Force-choke a baby-doll , but his dog as well, indicating some rather serious psychological issues that should probably be addressed before it’s too late to turn back to the light. “He’s Vader, man, it’s already too late.” IT’S NEVER TOO LATE! “Ever tried the Taco Bell drive-thru at 3AM on a Wednesday?” GAAAAAAH, you have a point. Hit the jump for the commercial you can now ruin for everybody else during the actual Super Bowl.

This is a commercial for The League of S.T.E.A.M. (Supernatural and Troublesome Ectoplasmic Apparitional Management), a Victorian-looking ghost elimination company. I thought it was pretty cute. If you like what you see, they have a series of shorts on Youtube of them catching spirits or whatever the hell a bunch of steampunky ghostbusters do. And speaking of catching spirits — toss me an airplane bottle and LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED! Happy 4th of July weekend everybody! Hit it for the video.

NOTE: Commercial for the WTF You’ve Got To Be Kidding Me Blanket is after the jump. The Better Marriage Blanket is an actual damn product , officially signaling the end of mankind. Or maybe just flatulence -related divorces! It’s basically a comforter with a layer of activated carbon sewn in so when you rip a squirty one your partner doesn’t have to smell it. Unless they’re into that sort of thing, in which case I have a blanket beyond their wildest dreams. Hit it for the I know I shouldn’t be surprised this exists but I’m still disappointed with humanity.
