There were a lot of mediocre commercials this year during the Superbowl in my opinion. I was let down by the companies that usually put out really funny ads. The one that really stood out to me as one of the best is the little Darth Vader VW commercial. If you missed it you can check it out HERE. It spoke to my inner geek. I don't know how many times I tried to get stuff to move by using "The Force" when I was younger. Heck, I still do it now, that's why I love automatic doors. Anyway, the main star of the commercial did an interview with the 'Today Show' and the kid is awesome.  He had never seen any of the "Star Wars" movies and I think he nailed using "The Force".

On top of his awesome commercial, he is a brave kid all around. He was born with a heart defect and has to use a pace maker, which I can only imagine would be tough at that age. This kid is my new hero.

May the Force be with you.
