jjh123horry Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Tonight, Channel 4, 10:20pm Is the 1st Official Broadcasting of The Swarms AdvertChannel 4 might be showing a different thing, the small 19 second blip came up, with a thing saying 'a channel 4 presentation, the premier screening', then it cuts to thorpe parks logo with the swarms battle cry.

Harry.D.C Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Well, I think I may be the first to see it (who has posted) on here! Don't know where this 10.20pm Channel 4 thing has come from, but it has JUST been on Sky 1 (9.20). I actually came on here to say how AMAZING it is! The usual of people looking up, people running, shadows of the swarm everywhere. People on bikes cycling away from it. Camera panning in-between wrecks of buildings and some awesome shots of the ride! All the time the YMAS song playing, and it works really, really well!

Steve B Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I've just seen a new advert for The Swarm on Pick tv. Starts off with people scrambling to get away from the swarm in a street which then cuts to a kid being taken from his bike. Then various shots of devastation (helicopters crashing into buildings ect) followed by different angles of the coaster. It features the you me at six song playing throughout the advert. Not sure if this is the advert to be shown on channel 4 but this advert was very impressive.Edit- beat me to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornflakes Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Just saw the advert, brilliant, just brilliant, I love how all the teasers chronicle the beginning of the attack, and then the advert shows the full attack, I really love it.

Doc Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I got to admit, despite me disliking it earlier, that music does work pretty darn well with the advert in my opinion.Very classy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokesyboy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Love that advert! Must admit the song does go with it... Even though I hate the song! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben1990 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Absolutely amazing! Am I right in assuming that the version posted just above is a slightly shorter version, and that Channel 4 (& More4; Film4) showed a longer version? The one I saw was on More4 and was similar to that above, but it was longer and the THORPE PARK logo was shown at the beginning and end for a considerable time :)Although the area isn't as 'immersive' as I'd have hoped, I absolutely cannot fault the marketing/PR that's gone with the launch of this ride, it's been spectacular- and far exceeds anything we've seen in this country for a LONG time (the campaign, not just the coaster itself).

Alexsutton Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Hello everyone, I'm a regular over at TowersTimes (under the name Coaster_Dude. The less said about that the better really...) and I thought I'd pop over here to share what I just posted. There didn't seem to be a decent quality version of the advert on YouTube, only ones recorded off the TV with a camera so I thought I'd upload a decent one.http://youtu.be/r3hWMEToKrYI'm off to Thorpe for the first time next week and I am super excited!

Bubbles1 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Is it just me or does this seem like a bit of a throwback to the inferno style ads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
