OT: Funny Commercial

Anyone seen the Spike TV ad with Darth Vader playing golf?
He is putting and uses the Force to curve the ball into the hole!

One of the other guys in the foursome objects and Vader directs the famous choke his way. As this guy falls to the ground, another one grabs a club and charges Darth, but Vader simply ignites his lightsaber! That backs off the attacker very quickly.

I found it hillarious!

They should have hired that guy to oversee the NBA refs.

I dunno... I think some people won't think it's funny. It depends on your environment, which is different for everyone. If someone wasn't brought up on Star Wars, they might not get it. The effect could be drastically different from one place to another.

This has to be the funniest parody that I've seen written on the Internet.

Some moderator will probably delete it.

I would have to agree. I was at a college camp recently, and they made references to movies from a completely different decade.
