As Chris Sims at ComicsAlliance correctly notes, “Hasbro has produced one of the single greatest toy commercials of all time. There are martial arts. There is movie footage. There is rap music.”

I have watched this four times already.

  1. Rapping combined with superhero toys and white kids with faux-hawks and Bieber hair: only slightly lamer than rapping white Christian clowns.

    20 years from now, people will look back on all the footage from commercials to reality TV from now and say, “Why does everything slow down and speed up for no reason? Was there a problem downloading the video?”

  2. So that’s why they didn’t include the Astonishing Ant-Man and the Winsome Wasp in the movie. The toys associated with them would be too small, and quite likely a choking hazard.

  3. People have not learned jack shit from 20 years ago (aside from the idiots that recycle bad 80’s music and fashion trends) so I doubt that 20 years hence anyone will garner fuck all from an action movie.
