As part of a marketing scheme for the upcoming indie film Thor: The Dark World, Comedy Central has produced a 30-second spot parodying Beck Bennett’s AT&T ads which a) I love, b) are hilarious and c) are never not funny. Featuring Tom Hiddleston as Loki as Beck Bennett’s sarcastic kid-talking salesman, the children and the God of Mischief discuss superheroics and Loki’s never-ending quest for redemption from his past is once again called into question when he’s put to the ultimate test.
Personally, I hope this is the first of many, because that was adorably hilarious (perhaps even “adorkable”). And also because who doesn’t like seeing Loki bully some innocent children for our entertainment?
Either way, sip your morning coffee, watch the video and enjoy a nice giggle at a child’s expense.
Update: Now with more, straight from Michael Zorek, father to the adorable little girl Diana seen in this ad (as well as Jeremy, the young man in the red shirt):
And, if you’ve never seen what they are parodying, here’s an AT&T promo that also features Diana:
Life is too good sometimes.
