Around 2003 in Chile, when the original trilogy of Star Wars began airing on television there, they did this funny thing to avoid cutting to commercial breaks. They stitched the commercials into the films themselves. Here is one of them, with the English dub added in. pic.twitter.com/wC7N2vPNvv

Still love this scene from The Force Awakens where Rey catches the Cerveza Cristal. One of the best in all of Star Wars. pic.twitter.com/eo1hzyac6t

How I imagine the person in Chile who came up with those Star Wars Cerveza Cristal ad insert ideas must feel watching them go viral 40 years later. pic.twitter.com/yNnkqvv7VT
