One thing I've noticed this holiday season is that I've heard the Star Wars theme more often than Christmas carols. I swear, it's as if every other commercial is some form of tie-in to the new Star Wars movie [1]. Bunny pointed out this article [2] about the various Star Wars branded products for sale and man, Star Wars makeup?
Seriously?
There's even a picture of a plastic bag of apples with a graphic of Darth Vader. Darth Vader! Come on! Slap a picture of Pricess Leia on that bag of apples! Everybody knows that apples come from (or rather, used to come from) Alderaan!
Sheesh!
But really, enough with the Star Wars branding and music! I'm beginning to miss the traditional oversaturation of Christmas carols this year!
