holtjammy16 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?I also thought that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Great advert. No "from the makers of Colossus" rubbish, no overblown hype such as the worlds biggest helix or such nonsense. Just a few choice shots of the story, the ride and a deep imposing voice at the end. Up there with Inferno, Oblivion and Air IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Top quality advert from Thorpe there - absolutely love it!That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyMoo Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Just posted the link on Facebook for the official advert to impose it upon my friends, and I reiterrate here what I posted on Facebook - In my eyes, Merlin have not a put a single foot wrong with The SWARM, with LC12 teasers/viral marketing at the start, to Les Coogan and the "Police" on park last year, to the epicness of the ride and area itself, and finally this advert... fantastic. Not cheesy, just classy. Spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Hk Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 That advert is amazing! Not a low budget one like we've seen before...it's really simple but powerful and bigs the ride up really well. Literally cannot wait to ride this now!

Doc Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yes they seem to have got this year spot on, from the early marketing to the ride itself. I really do hope Thorpe continues with this kind of attitude.They deserve a pat on the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daboywunda Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 You Me At Six "The Swarm" goes in at 23... But shocking that Radio 1 didn't mention any connection to the ride... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidders Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Not really shocking at all - it's Radio 1! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge2002 Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I don't think they're allowed? Isn't the BBC's policy that they're not allowed to plug any product/brand name on air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aTOMic Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Does anyone know if the advert will be played on BBC1, BBC2 or ITV? Please excuse me if it already has.edit: Woops, long day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
