Jacques, Jacques, Jacques your Citroen

Best ad on TV since the Honda Cog is the Citroen C4 Transformer ad, where a Citroen C4 turns into a Transformer robot and grooves on down to Jacques Your Body by Les Rhythmes Digitales. From news.com.au:

The commercial is part of a new European promotion campaign for the C4 small car and features a coupe model that, sensing it is alone in a car park, transforms itself into a towering robot that dances to a popular dance club single.
As its unsuspecting owner approaches the robot turns back into a car.

Wonder what this will do for downloads of Jacques Your Body

That commercial was filmed in Vancouver. I imagine the commercial is doing wonders for the song. It's interesting how many commercials (especially car commercials, since I'm not in the market for a car), are really commercials for the music.

That's all nice and well, but can I plug my iPod in directly? 🙂
It's nice to see LRD come back, 'Sometimes' was a great song. Any idea of what's happened to the guy? The website is dead, and google didn't find much.

You know that a live-action Transformers movie is in the pipeline? Judging by the effects on this advert, Optimus Prime et al can be brought to life in very convincing style.
The big kid in me can't wait.
