German Ad Makes Words Spit Flames

TJ “I Told You So” Swafford dropped a link to this interesting Audible.de ad in our Soflow group forum this morning. It’s a cross-promotion with Eragon in which words flow out of some suspiciously iPod-looking earbuds and smash together, giving phoenix-like birth to a dragon.

The copy reads “Lebendige Worte” or “living words.” We’re not sure what the narrator is saying but dragon visuals and German-speak have a way of demanding one’s strictest attention. We also like the gobbledygook mash-up of disconnected letters that turn into a fire-breathing monster. We shoot for the same type of effect when we throw together scathing diction.

Do we now want to watch Eragon? No, but that’s because we were burned by Dragonheart, which ruined live-action dragon films for us forever.
