Art darth vader what martial arts styles would you attribute to famous fictitional characters?
Ok, this is not a serious topic, but at least it isn't "can sponge bob beat barney in a cage match"?
It has to be a REAL existing or historical style- "gun kata" while interesting and the most effective martial art ever, is still fictitional.
1- indiana jones
2- the terminator
3- batman
4- BA baracus
5- shaft (richard roundtree- not the sissy sam jackson one)
6- darth vader
7- rambo
8- conan the barbarian
9- conan o'brien
10- spiderman
not looking for any answer really, just opinions. its fictional characters there is no right or wrong. I guess just explain why.
Indiana Jones - Old school boxing mixed with street fighting mixed in. Something like what Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey were doing.
The terminator - Not sure he really had one. Mostly just brute force.
Batman - A cross between karate and jujitsu with ninjitsu's stealth and a masked face.
BA baracus - mostly boxing, from Mr. T's days as a Chicago bouncer
Shaft - Never saw any of the old Shaft movies. My guess would boxing and some karate thrown in as it starting making it into mainstream in the 70's.
Darth Vader - Iaido/Jujitsu/karate - similar to what a samurai would study
Rambo - Whatever they teach Special Forces/Army Rangers
Conan the barbarian - Iaijitsu, Kenjitsu, (He did learn off of a samurai sword in the movie) and Medieval Sword fighting
Conan O'brien - not a clue
Spiderman - Probably cross between Wu Shu flips and movement and Ninjitsu from walking on walls and using his webbing to travel up buildings
Though not a serious topic, this question made me think quite a bit...
Dark Marketing is slowly making its way into the advertising lexicon, and for good reason. Rock bands like Nine Inch Nails and burger giant McDonalds have unleashed its brand engagement and reinforcement capabilities with results marketing chiefs can cheer.
But, for many in the industry, the term is still more likely to conjure an image of Darth Vader opening a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos instead of what the concept delivers: legions of brand enthusiasts actively participating in an artfully designed and carefully executed brand marketing campaign that spans countries and continents.
It's powerful stuff.
Here's a brief primer, and, for brands that can, a "how-to-market darkly" checklist.
Let there be Light
Dark Marketing isn't sinister, but it borders on covert. At its core is the alternative reality game (ARG), a complex, creative and purposeful scenario that brings brands to life.
ARGs are interactive narratives that comprise fiction and nonfiction, mystery and detection and scripted and unscripted activities that invite participation. The games unfold on (and are made possible by) multiple forms of traditional and online media. ARGs may use telephones, e-mail, outdoor signage, t-shirts, television, social networks, music, blogs and more to introduce an engaging storyline, motivate behavior, reveal game clues and advance the narrative in ways that hold player interest.
Take, for example, Microsoft's "I Love Bees" campaign used to promote the launch of Halo 2, a hit video game. It's a great illustration of how ARGs go under the radar of traditional marketing to rally consumers to the brand.
Microsoft launched the game by FedEx-ing jars of honey to several Halo players. A few days later, the promotional trailer for Halo 2 referenced a Web site, ilovebees.com/xbox.com. The Web site provided lists of pay phone numbers, GPS coordinates for the phones and times when each listed number would be called, driving the curious to find the phones and answer the calls. The calls delivered additional clues that advanced the ARG, promoted Halo 2 and reinforced the brand.
From the start of the game until its conclusion (with players earning a preview experience of the Halo 2 game), players and observers visited the I Love Bees Web site for updates on the narrative and new clues about the game. Independent Web sites and forums sprang up, generating game theories, conspiracies, storylines and, of course, marketing buzz.
Not for Everyone
ARGs work best for brands with target markets that enjoy the aspects of interactive, social games with online components. Commenting on why "I Love Bees" was so successful for Microsoft, James Hilton, creative director for AKQA, the agency that developed the ARG, said, "It worked well for Xbox because its audience is inclined to investigate further, hack into sites and solve problems." There must be a good fit between the brand, the meaning the brand wishes to communicate, the target market and the story and plot that anchor the ARG.
After determining fit, roll up your sleeves. ARGs demand substantial work -- from initial conception through planning and execution. Further, because the storyline can change depending on response from players, ARGs require agility, quick writing and responsiveness from game architects (known as puppet masters) through the game's conclusion.
Additionally, if player response takes ARGs in unintended directions, marketers charged with tightly controlling brand meaning may find themselves taking unwanted risks.
Finally, compared to some marketing options, an ARG's reach can be small. For example, measures of Audi's success with an ARG referred to reaching 500,000 people. A display ad on the MySpace homepage, for example, could have reached millions. Of course, the attention and involvement components are entirely different for these two examples, and it is important to consider the entire range of benefits and disadvantages associated ARGs and other marketing activities.
Getting to the Dark Side
ARGs engage brand enthusiasts, drive publicity and create buzz. They allow brands to tell their stories creatively, interactively and virally. If you're ready to give one a shot, follow these guidelines:
Have a story to tell. ARGs are first and foremost an interactive story that should be captivating, dynamic and inviting.
Ensure that there is a clear match between the brand, the target audience and the notion of an interactive game.
Plan, plan, and plan more. Begin by assessing how the ARG can facilitate accomplishment of the brand’s marketing goals. Then figure out the back story (the pregame narrative), the primary narrative, and the forward story. Perplex City (http://seasonone.perplexcitystories.com/story.html) offers a detailed overview of its architects' planning process.
Reveal the story narrative over time using obscure clues and messages that will require player interaction to decipher the scenes.
Include plot lines that are nonlinear and can be revealed sporadically. The development of the narrative must not be predictable and must not rely on a linear unfolding of events to make sense.
Design a story that will enhance the sense of reality in the story. Players should not be reminded of the game but should be invited to make the game part of their reality.
Utilize a variety of media, and carefully design game elements to leverage the characteristics of the delivery medium. Past ARGs have utilized code on T-shirts and posters, Web sites identified in video trailers, posts to blogs, e-mail, text messages and mass media advertising.
Be prepared to change the direction of the narrative in response to player input and response to past clues and events.
Commit to the ARG and its management. ARGs take time and continued involvement and management as the story unfolds.
Consider an agency with ARG experience, including 42 Entertainment, Mind Candy and McKinney & Silver.
Measure the effectiveness of the ARG based on the objectives for the promotional campaign, not just according to game participation.
As TIVO, iPods and the Internet continue squeezing traditional advertising methods, dark marketing strategies will become a bigger part of the mix.
And for marketers that get it right, this dark side promises plenty of sun.

I don't undrestand how can I have so many ha-ters
Knowin I'm there father like my name is darth va-der
I can get you hemmed up while I'm bein tay-lored
Then I slide off to the side like a fa-der
Homey I'm the president, governor and ma-yor!
I control everything, like a dic-tator!
Get you biz marked up, turn you into va-pors!
If you got a problem get you swallowed like a cha-ser!
Model on my arm no homey I don't have to pay-her
All I have to do is tell her where I wanna take-her
Catch us out in italy, then we in jamai-ca
Caught up in the rapture, like anita ba-ker
When I roll up to you niggas like a ska-ter!
Move if you wanna when you see that red la-ser!
No matter how you move and that infrared will chase ya!
Then I keep it movin, homey see you la-ter! mims!

[Verse 2]
I'm tryin to keep it cool, if you wanna, you can move, if you wanna
Tryin to have a little fun, maybe move a couple numbers but
When you movin numbers, all the haters start to wonder
Then they talk behind your back, in the breath they speakin under
Man I'm hot, like the sun, like the middle of the summer!
Strike down in a flash, nigga you can call me thunder!
Chicks call me phil drummond 'cause I give 'em diff'rent strokes!
Bahh, bahh, bahh, bahh, bahh, beat it up, like a drummer!
They can call it one-hit wonder, but I guess that means I'm one-up
Light a match, play with fire, that just means you gon' get burned up
In the river, where you turn up, 'cause thye see I'm on the come-up
But it's our, turn, now, if you want it, take it from us
I don't need no goons by me, if you want it come and try me!
We can do this broad day, in the middle of the lobby!
Niggas say that they the shit, when they barely just a potty!
When they problems turn to prol'ly and they prol'ly turns to sorry!
Tell 'em!
[Chorus]
Move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna move-move if you wanna move
Move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna
Move-move if you wanna if you wanna if you wanna move
I missed Christina singing AND the Darth Vader commercial, so thank you so much for posting! I just watched both, Christina did suck and the Darth Vader was definitely cute! I really enjoyed the game this year, it was Zac's favorite team and I was able to clothe the entire family in Packers gear! It was even better that our team that we supported won:)
