That's some surreal shit...
Makes perfect sense why they'd want him in the ad, though.

Old man plays a video game. Comedy happens.
Do you like John Williams? His early work was a little too jazzy for my taste, but when Jaws came out in '75 I really think he came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and an air of consummate professionalism that really gives the pieces a big boost. He's been compared to Jerry Goldsmith but I think John has a far more leitmotif-driven style of composing. In '82 John composed this, E.T., his most accomplished album to date. I think his undisputed masterpiece is "The Magic of Halloween", a theme so catchy most people don't listen to what it means. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of childhood and the importance of friendship, it's also a personal statement about the man himself. Hey Paul!

I saw this over at FSM, the actual commercial is like a minute long. It had potential but it's just him murmuring prewritten lines. Booooring.
In 50 years Herrmann will be forgotten.

I used to love this man.

japanese companies have a lot of money to spend in ads, really.
For some reason, even if this may be scripted some of his gestures really look the same when i have let my parents play
I think he may play with his kids so he knows the basics...

Naugthy Dog is a US company. Or are you talking about Sony?
PS: I haven't watched the video. Fear of spoilers.

He's certainly got all the Indiana Jones gestures going on......
