Most of you probably know Volkswagen's Super Bowl ad "The Force": A miniature Darth Vader trying to do something with help of his force, afterwards getting amazed of himself because a car's motor started while he tried to move it through his force (or he tried to burst it; nobody knows) because Vader's father remote controlled it.
Now it gets spoofy: Marvel copied nearly the whole ad, replacing Little Vader with Little Thor.
There are some other differences: The original Star Wars theme music (VW's ad) was removed and instead, Richard Wagner lets his valkyries ride once again. For sure, the ending of the ad is different - would be obscur if it wasn't - but I don't want to foreshadow anything ;)
If you ask me, this spoof is not genius, but it's cool, though.
Down below the "Little Thor", I added "The Force" once again for you.

Couldn't find out the advertising agency working for Marvel, I'm sorry..
For the ones who are interested: The release day of Thor is May 6, which is not said in the spoof ad (I just had a look at the Thor website)
