VVRU: Super Bowl Edition Caleb Hamilton, February 6, 2012February 6, 2012 Volkswagen had a hit on their hands during last year’s Super Bowl with their “Little Darth Vader” commercial. This year, they sorta did a sequel? I wasn’t sure what to make of it because the Star Wars plot twist seemed really out of place and forced (no pun intended). http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UY9GdLw2kG0NBC broadcasted the Super Bowl this year and used that to its advantage to push a few of its new and returning shows. We saw this promo for the new series, Awake, starring Jason Isaacs as a detective who loses his family in a horrible accident. When he wakes up, his mind has created two realities: one in which his wife survived the accident, and in the other, his son. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=TJdEpvJmj2UDisney showed off footage of its upcoming film, John Carter. You can check out the extended teaser below. Another new NBC show that we’ve been seeing a lot lately. Smash, NBC’s grown-up answer to Glee premieres tonight at 10 PM EST/ 9PM Central. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2pOQZ1QUVQ0PROCEED TO PAGE 3 OF VVRU: SUPER BOWL EDITION!Pages: 1 2 3 Features Viral Marketing Viral Video Round Up Viral Videos Act of ValorAcuraAwakeBattleshipFerris Bueller's Day OffHondaMarvel StudiosMarvel's The AvengersMetlife InsuranceNBCSeinfeldsmashStar WarsSuper Bowl XLVIThe Celebrity ApprenticeThe LoraxUniversal StudiosVolkswagen
