AOTC Commercials: Official Reaction Thread (NO SPOILERS!)

OH Man, that's cool! TF.N put the link up to download the new commercial. Don't watch it if you are spoiler picky.

Very cool!

 

It seems as though the t.v. commercials are taking a much different tone than the movie trailers. This third commercial featuring Jango Fett is clearly geared towards a younger crowd. I guess it's time I accepted I might be a little too old for these films.

 

Bear in mind this trailer was seen on Nickelodeon, a kids-oriented network. They may be aiming different ads at different groups on different networks/programs.

 

Ahh, I see your point. I liked the images from the commercial, at any rate. Especially Obiwan fighting Jango with his fists.

 

The final shot in the new Jango trailer is intense.

 

Oooooh! I like that one! And guess what? No dialogue.

 

I honestly fail to see the childish aspect of this commercial. Perhaps because I can't get past the incredible shots shown here.

 

I can't wait to see Obi pummel him in the fist fight. Woot!

 

The Jango commercial rocked! It's designed to show that Jango is a kick ass walking arsenal and it does it's job well. If this get kids excited then so be it. I too, can fell the kid in me getting excited after watching it.

Btw, I loved Jango's "DIALOGUE" in the Jedi commercial "Always a pleasure to meet a jedi" Great deleivery! Jango Fett rocks!

 

The final shot in the Jango commercial was sweet. See Yoda in the bottom of the screen? Cool stuff.

 

After reading this thread through, there is one factor I am not able to understand. Why are you speaking about dialogue that does not fit into Star Wars without first considering the possibility of a good reference when in context, or the fact that the Original Trilogy - which you are basing your belief of a correct Star Wars dialogue upon - might have been riddled with cheesy lines? I do not want to sound aggressive - I am just confused.



Yes, I was disappointed by The Phantom Menace. But, the movie was not ruined by script, dialogue nor acting. It was the overall lack of atmosphere that plagued the movie. This hopefully has been corrected in Attack of the Clones - and if judging from the three TV-spots that have been released, it just might be so. Star Wars Episode II is destined to go beyond my expectations.

"This Party is Over". It might not be poetical, nor epic - but it represents real life. We tend to shoot 'cheesy' lines.

 

Man, the new Jango commerical is very sweet.

I dig the music, which is from the AOTC soundtrack and I dig the way it was set up. Like "High Impact Armor", "Short Range Blasters", "Missle Equipped Jetpack", "Bounty Hunter", mixed in with images of action scenes for each line.

Sweet.

 

That last shot is awesome!!!

 

Wow, that is a rather wonderful trailer!

 

The music is awesome in it, I can't wait to get the soundtrack (I only downloaded a couple of the songs).

That last scene is intense. And when Obi-Wan is punching him, it looks like Jango is just taking it.

 

the new australian footage rocks to. When Jango uses his jetpack and is firing at Obi-Wan its amazing.

 

Mogook: of COURSE Jango's just taking it, he's got "high impact armor"!

 

great commercial! exciting stuff! but my fear is that Lucas will pull a darth maul with jango (meaning we just saw ALL of his footage in AOTC) I know no one can really answer me that question without some kind of spoiling, but it is a concern after feeling a little burned by Maul's 6 or 7 minutes in TPM. The marketing campaign really pushed Maul and it seems like they are really pushing Jango this time.

OMG!! I've read these boards for over a year now, and only after watching the third tv spot and the Aussie footage have I felt the need to post! The new footage is so awesome!! It has me so pumped, I can't concentrate on anything!! I'm relatively spoiler free, so I know little to nothing about the plot, I've only watched the trailers and the australian footage, since I figured they are showing it on TV here soon. Great footage, especially the australian stuff!!

P.S. I thought Samuel's line was really great!! And there are alot of corny lines in the OT, but the only one that REALLY bugs me every time I see it: "I was going to toshi station to pick up some power converters!" It cuts through me like a knife!

 

Wait a minute lono....this is all the footage of Jango?!?!? How would you be knowing this? And I never knew Darth Maul was overmarketed.....me confused?

 

lono is hoping this isn't all the footage.

 

I'm just speculating. I don't know how much cool jango moments there are in AOTC..

Darth Maul was over marketed. His face was on all of the action figures boxes, merchandizing etc. and then it turned out he was in the movie for like 6 minutes. The marketing gave the impression that he would be a major player in the movie.

I don't think so, lono. Of course, I could be dead wrong, but I think that Jango is a central character in AOTC and the Clone Wars. Unlike Maul, who was just a pawn. He served no real purpose other than to be Sideous's current apprentice. Jango seems to be much more important in the grand scale of things, and I believe we will see much of him in the film.
