Most people want to try to do something cool to make the news. However, a wise old friend once told me, “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” Now, something from the past is coming back in a major way! Remember when Chilean TV hilariously added beer ads into the Star Wars movies?

After some 20 years, it’s going viral and has returned. This is hilarious and awesome, and I think more networks should do this!

Chilean TV Hilariously Adds Beer Ads Into ‘Star Wars’ Movies

First, we can all agree there are too many TV commercials. However, this would settle everything. This is a solution that we can all support. The advertisers will make their money, the networks will make theirs, and we will get to enjoy our movies! Nothing ruins a movie more than interrupting it every 10 minutes for 5 minutes of ads.

User @heyitswindy on X/formerly Twitter shared some of those, and they are nothing short of hilarious. They captioned, “Around 2003 in Chile, when the original trilogy of Star Wars began airing on television there, they did this funny thing to avoid cutting to commercial breaks. They stitched the commercials into the films themselves. Here is one of them, with the English dub added in.”

At first, it seemed like a joke—like someone on the internet dubbed these ads to be funny. However, that’s not the case! They are ads and are intended to be so. Why is this not more common?? People would love this! I think we wouldn’t be cutting the cord like we are in masses if TV did this. Can you imagine how different it would be? There are truly endless possibilities.

See more of these videos below! We need to bring them back. See more examples here. Wait…should Dave & Chuck The Freak start doing this?

Andy's Top 5 Star Wars Songs

Well, today is composer John Williams’ birthday so here is a list of my favorite Star Wars songs.

  • Duel of The Fates

    It doesn’t get much better than this one in terms of Star Wars tunes. I listen to this one right before I go for a jog. Sure my jog doesn’t necessarily warrant such an epic sound… but even the slightest amount of jogging is so difficult for me, this is appropriate

  • The Imperial March

    The theme song for the bad guys. Had to add this to the list. This is also the song that’s in my head when I’m in line to get fast food.

  • Yoda's Theme

    This one is great, and it’s the song that’s in my head after a day where my diet actually goes well.

  • Anakin VS Obi-Wan

    This one is great… and this appropriately captures the emotion of a day where I know I have to clean my bathroom.

  • The Emperor

    This is the Emperor’s theme. So evil it’s the song that’s in my head when I clean my cat’s litter box.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
