And the crazy thing is SLJ actually plays EVE too!

We could totally get him to do it!

I'm also all for Nathan Fillion :D

All sorts of other sci-fi icons.

And then Bruce Willis as a merc for good measure.

Alan Tyduk: Yes... yes. This is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... This Land.
*another fleet uncloaks nearby under command of Nathan Fillion*
Nathan Fillion: I think we should call it... your grave!
Alan Tyduk: Ah! Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Nathan Fillion: Ha ha ha! Mine is an evil laugh! Now DIE!
*third fleet enters the fray*
Alan Tyduk: Oh no, God, oh dear God in heaven...
Bruce Willis: Yippee ki yay motherfuckers!

Zoom out quickly to orbit where a Cormorant sits. Show targeting animation on planet below and then the cormorant fires. Follow tactical rail charge to ground where Panda village is destroyed in fireball. Fade to real life where MR T is sitting at computer smiling.


This scene is the best part, though...

Have Richard Dean Anderson sport a mullet again.

Have him sit there and fiddle with 2 paperclips, some duct tape and an old rusty generator while the MacGuyver music softly plays in the background. When hes done, zoom in on the contraption close up...and zoom out to reveal a Minmatar frigate.

I didn't click it. It was the bee guy again, wasn't it?

I stopped clicking links in this forum ever since that... thing started getting passed around.

Who the spokesperson is depends on what aspect of Eve a given advertisement is pushing, as there are many different aspects.


- Chuck Norris would be good for the "Crime and punishment" aspect (Walker Texas Ranger thing) - show a CONCORD ship with a Texas Ranger emblem on it for the win.

- Kiefer Sutherland good voice over for the cloak and dagger aspect.

- Liam Neeson overall great voice for any advertisement emphasizing the "revenge" aspect of Eve.

- and last but not least, Mel Gibson in any Eve commercial having audio of any alliance leader going into a complete nerd-raging rantalanche over a super loss, complete with foul language.

A pod is scrambled in a lowsec belt. A ransom is sent. This is the message back:

"I don't know who you are, but I know what you want. You are looking for a ransom. I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills -- skills I have acquired over about a 3 and half year career with +4s. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my pod go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you."




Yep. Liam Neeson is your guy CCP.

An interesting examination of the philosophy of EVE. A bit cerebral, perhaps...but if one puts one's thinking cap on it all makes sense. Winning /ad candidates.
