I'm prepared to get flamed, but I just don't see what's so "amazing." This is like that episode of How I Met Your Mother where Marshal is like "O my god celebrities buy groceries! I buy groceries too!" Why wouldn't a celebrity use the internet like anyone else? I'll admit Zelda seems like a nice enough person, but I just don't see why it is so amazing that she uses the internet. I guess I see the whole "You don't get to talk to celebrities everyday" aspect, but no one here is really having any sort of conversation with her. Even if they were, I'm still not sure just talking to another human being is really that extraordinary. Threads like this always creep me out a little bit. Normally I wouldn't say anything and just ignore it, but my filter didn't kick in until I was about two sentences in and at that point I was committed.

All that said, I do like the commercial. I'll be buying it on Sunday.

It's not that hard to figure out. People like celebrities who are down to earth, especially if they're female, pretty and geeky at the same time AND lurk Gaf. There aren't many people that fit that description (that we know of). A random gaf poster managed to get the attention of Robin Williams daughter via some fetish-like duck marriage joke thing. It's crazy, creepy, and awesome all in one. If people can't appreciate how cool that is then I don't know what to tell them. And gaf isn't just "the internet" it's definitely a place people go who are a bit different than just your average celebrity that goes online.

I love his beard, quite stylish, and the overall ad is quite funny too.

 

[Dyno]

Zelda, welcome to GAF. Now would you please share your insight and skill-rate your dad's ability in Call of Duty multiplayer. Does he have mad skills or is he a headshot magnet?

Zelda has a sense of humor unlike some Gaffers here who immediately think everyone is being creepy.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Hey, Zelda. I give great ocarina, if you know what I mean.




And tell your dad Bicentennial Man was good. Eff the haters.

To be fair I never said anyone was creepy. I said I get creeped out a little. I'm the type of person who can't sit through an episode of E! or Entertainment tonight or whatever because I find it kind of sad. I tried to explain how I kind of get some people's initial attraction, but I just don't see the "amazing" factor that some people are getting here. No disrespect to any individual Gaffers was meant.

No disrespect to Zelda, but I wouldn't say she was a celebrity. I don't think that's why people think it's cool she made a duck joke either, it's that she looked at the thread and decided to comment on it.

 

[Trurl]

Aw mang, I used my post earlier in this thread to respond to a troll instead of doing something awesome like Chinner. Lesson learned.

 

[friskykillface]

lmfao what a thread , just read the Zelda twitter thing :O haha

 

[AbsoluteZero]

FTFY

 

[KittenMaster]

Yeah, this. I only got to see like the last part of the movie but I thought it was very endearing.

 

[apana]

I wonder if she got to meet Reggie.

 

[Eradicate]

lmfao what a thread , just read the Zelda twitter thing :O haha

 

[LiK]

Yup, great movie.

 

[Busaiku]

What just happened.

 

[Chet Rippo]

That boy ain't right.

 

[StuBurns]

What just happened.

Duke Nukem Forever was released.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

I shouldn't have gone to sleep.

 

[Busaiku]

Duke Nukem Forever was released.

But I still have so much to live for.

 

[olimpia84]

epic thread!

 

[How About No]

Ha ha ha what

This thread is now absolutely crazy

And I'm going to have to apologize to Zelda for GAF's behavior

Cute commercial btw

 

[MisterHero]

Don't worry about it

her ninja handmaiden will escort you out of her garden

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I think Zelda sat in the row behind me and my wife at the SW Ep 3 employee screening but I can't remember for sure. I know her dad was behind us sitting next to George chatting with him.

 

[Pollux]

This thread just gets better and better....

 

[StevieP]

Don't worry about it

[Cow Mengde]

Wow, I take back what I said before about being ashamed of GAF.

Hey Zelda, if you're reading this, go contact Reggie and tell him to bring out Xenoblade and Last Story for North America.

 

[StuBurns]

But I still have so much to live for.

I know your pain, I've personally been waiting for a celebrity to have a hot daughter named Yorda before I can pass calmly...

 

[barkers crest]

Looks more like Saria.

 

[El Sloth]

This thread...

I don't know what's going on anymore. It certainly started out innocent enough.

you know this thread was super-creepy as all get out but then it kinda became coo'

alright this thread is right back around to totes creeptacular gj guys

This has been my reactions reading this thread.

Edit: To echo previous sentiments in the thread: Bicentennial Man was a great movie.

 

[M-PG71C]

I will pay Zelda $100 to go kick Reggie in the balls. Paypal and all. The man needs it for not bringing Xenoblade and The Last Story Stateside.

MAKE IT HAPPEN, WOMAN! I can dream, right?

That was a...interesting commercial. Only in Europe, eh?

and another code R
and Disaster
and last window.

All these games are already in English.

 

[heringer]

People calling other people creepy are the real creepies for taking some jokes so seriously and get all serious because there's a famous chick reading the thread. Apologizing to Zelda for GAF's behaviour? Oh, c'mon, heh.

To quote our lovely princess:

I may be wrong but it seems like dorks/geeks are usually easy-going, fun & have a sense of humor. Nerds? They take life WAY to seriously.

 

[ciD_Vain]

LOL oh man, this thread is pretty damn epic.

 

[How About No]

ALTTP Zelda is pretty awesome.

Pfft a goddang impostor is what that is.

THIS is the REAL ALTTP Zelda:

...I like the newer one more

Edit: She could sign up for membership and it will still take 5 months for her to get approved lol

 

[Cygnus X-1]

Ohhhh boy. This is unexpected.

 

[ZeroRay]

The fuck is going on?

 

[astroturfing]

what the hell did i miss?! Robin Williams' daughter lurks here? no wai!

Zelda tell your awesome dad to add me on PSN (same username) if he wants to cause a person to die from being starstruck seriously! i won't ever spam him or anything. it would be the coolest thing ever to see xXxMastaSniperRobin51xXx or whatever join message pop up every now and then. my mind would be continually blown.

boo if he doesn't have a ps3 though! BOO. he can afford all platforms dammit.

Amen to all those games, truly! NOE is a far better branch, by far. They'll be getting my support from here on out.

This commercial just has to come to North America. Look at what everyone has been through so far!

 

[The Elite]

Nicole Kidman didn't comment on GAF after doing her DS commercial. Zelda > Nicole.

 

[TheOddOne]

Maby Chinner *is* Nicole Kidman.

 

[sixteen-bit]

The fuck is going on?

I think Zelda Williams reached dream girl status.

 

[Eiji]

Maby Chinner *is* Nicole Kidman.

:O

 

[Revolutionary]

I think Zelda Williams reached dream girl status.

Well, at least this one's over 17. A first for GAF, no?

 

[heringer]

Maby Chinner *is* Nicole Kidman.

You be carefull now. People assuming Nicole Kidman was coming on to Zelda will take this thread to a whole new level.

 

[LiK]

Chinner is actually Tom Cruise using Nicole Kidman's old account.

 

[Eradicate]

The fuck is going on?

 

[Dennis]

What did I miss?

Something is going on here

 

[KittenMaster]

The fuck is going on?

I think this is now a girl advice-AGE thread or something.

 

[Neuromancer]

Anyone else get shades of The Fisher King from that commercial?

(Robin William's most amazing movie by the way)
