The franchise is famous for smearing it's logo feces(Carlin term) everywhere. And he Last Jedi film is no exception. The show doesn't come out for another 3 weeks and I'm already sick of it. It's being plugged everywhere. From IP providers to cars. Here's one from Nissan:



And that doesn't even include the advertising for the actual film. Gaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Mel Brooks nailed them in Spaceballs:



Man I can't wait for this to be over. Probably by Valentine's day. That's a different merchandising venue. Unless there's going to be Star Wars chocolates.

And that just goes to show you how wrong one person can be. It will NEVER be over. EVER. NEVER EVER....EVER

And just wait for when Disney gets a hold of the ownership of the Star Trek franchise too. They will blend the two of them together and feed it to babies via little vr head sets for toddlers.

That's one surefire way to make Star Trek watchable.

I can definitely go complete Vader on the TV. Watching the hockey game last Sat. ALL the commercials in one break had a SW theme to them. WTF? That Nissan commercial isn't the only one. I've seen two. There's probably more.

Love everything Star Wars, even these adverts, I think they are fun. Lucasfilm pretty much was the first company to take merchandising to the next level anyway.

And OP

Just to annoy you......

Another one is out in May 2018!

There was a freakin shaver commercial. Slanging an electric razor with the star wars logo on it. I just shook my head.

Like who really sees these commercials and says, I need to run out and get the POS!

I'm missing all this stuff.
But then again I don't own a television or watch TV for entertainment.
Makes life less stressful and more pleasent not being lied and pandered to all the time.

Honestly I have not noticed. I have seen two commercials and that's about it. I missed last years Star Wars at the theater, this year I plan on seeing it at City Walk IMAX 3D in Hollywood. I don't usually go to the movies anymore, but I will for this.

I didn't even know there was a new Star Wars movie until I saw this thread.

Don't forget those storm trooper tighty whities You begged me for last year.

That was one thing that was better under Lucas. Sure there were ads for toys and other merch, now it seems like Disney is giving anyone who can pay the rights to use Star Wars where ever they want. The car commercials really bug me.

Too late.

I forgot them earlier when I forgot my pants too.
