You know what I really like about this commercial? Kid Vader is a girl.
That’s a kind of daring decision, especially since they never showed her face. It would have been easy to portray a male Star Wars fan, or even make Vader gender-neutral. The only change would be a non-pink bedroom.
In fact, her gender almost had to be a conscious decision.

Kudos, Volkswagen!

But, it could be a boy in his sister’s bedroom. Either way it made us think!
Being said, you should watch this one too…

@EmJ, great “behind the scenes” video. The floating baby at the end was excellent. Thanks!
