They got in the mood for the holiday themed ad by talking about their vacation plans this year...
"We do what we always do — we rent a private jet and go up and then we call all our single friends and we say 'ha ha, how does it feel to be alone at Christmas' and then we dump jet fuel into the ocean — but only where there are endangered species."Other ads in the series feature The Office's John Krasinki and James Marsden of X-Men and Superman fame.
More and more kids that grew up reading comic books and ruining grading curves are ditching the idea of going to MIT to become an engineer for NASA and instead are taking over film and television studios. You can see the results of this in the geek trend that has been embraced by Hollywood over the past couple of years, with its big budget blockbuster movies based on super-hero comics and video games, Judd Apatow movies like Knocked Up and Superbad that celebrate the average Joe, and a slew of new geeky TV shows like Heroes, Chuck, Reaper, Aliens in America, and Ugly Betty. It seems this geek love may now be spreading to the fashion and advertising industries as well.
I love it! Embrace your inner geek people! I'm gonna go watch some Battlestar Galactica.
