Daniel Craig & Taika Waititi vs. Christopher Walken & Fatboy Slim

This vodka ad starring Daniel Craig as “himself” and featuring Taika Waititi makes me absolutely gleeful. As Kitty on Lucifer didn’t quite say, it’s “like porn and my Hello Kitty blanket and a stuffed crust pizza all rolled up into one.” Includes a blooper reel.



The competition under the cut.

Craig doesn't have the same sheer joy and bonkers-ness of Weapon of Choice with Walken. Also, I think Walken's a better dancer between the two of them, so he makes his particular "dance through the hotel" sequence work better.

But yes, the ad is definitely supposed to evoke the feelings of Weapon of Choice.

Walken initially trained as a dancer, so that does make sense.

Craig has a lot of joy and bonkers-ness for Craig though. I love how he does 99.93% of it in his cranky Bond face but occasionally cracks a smile or flounces.

Ah, I see, part of it is supposed to be the contrast. That helps get it in the proper idea.
