Petition to Never Use Classic Rock in a Destiny Advert Again
Signed.
After seeing the Japanese add, I cant even laugh at how shitty the American one is.
Who do these adds even appeal to?
EDIT: Lets not make assumptions about musical taste. Any form of popular music would have been inappropriate. Pop, rap, rock... most popular songs.
EDIT 2: Once again, this is not an attack on classic rock or any particular genre. This is about misleading advertising and out of place music in shitty commercials. All the money they spent on it... its trash.
EDIT 3: And actual quality Destiny advert: https://youtu.be/jS1BM9XRgvw
And another decent one: https://youtu.be/clRpcIHpmoY
EDIT: I gotta say, I am amazed how few people get the thread.
The vast majority of the posts on this thread essentially boil down to thinking I am insulting a 70s Rock Band and like Dubstep. As though the entire point of the thread flew over their heads and was completely lost on them. I guess I cant expect less from children.
But I will say this: I was wrong about the advert.
The advert is still an embarassing and misleading schlock epic: money burning on the screen, portraying Destiny as a game of one liners and awesome fist pumping ACTION when in reality, its a very slow moving old school sci fi universe that is highly confusing and has no one liners or bro action AT ALL.
But I thought an advert like this would be completely ineffective. I thought it would be a massive failure around here. But I was wrong, since apparently all it takes is a popular song and some schlock get people excited.
Damn shame that.

How could u insult Led Zeppelin?!
-
Yeah, because the soundtrack to Gaurdians of the Galaxy was terrible, right? Sci-fi and classic rock go well together, period.
-
1 ReplyDoesn't like Led Zeppelin All wrong. Muted in the name of good taste.
-
Name another game franchise that's gotten the rights to use any of Zeppelin's music. It's okay, I'll wait.
-
go back to kiddy garden.... classic rock is amazing, too bad you don't have good tastes and or were born to this newer shit they call good music.
-
5 RepliesLed Zeppelin > any other band or group
-
1 ReplyACDC-"highway to hell" would have been more suiting
-
Classic rock is real good music, and i dont even listen to it. Its like saying, get grunts out of halo.
-
Zeppelin was once considered the heaviest band in the world.
-
8 RepliesHas anyone stopped to think that maybe it was the Titan who was playing that song in his helmet to ramp him up? To get ready for an @$$ whooping? Oh no lets bash the trailer about a song that the character likes to listen to. How about we give you crap about the music you listen to during a raid.

2 RepliesClassic rock music and space fit so perfect. Hell even Jazz! Have you not seen Cowboy Bebop son!
-
2 RepliesI think its cool theyre using zeppelin songs That means they can use ten years gone for year 10 :)

1. I just watched the Japanese ad, (yes AD, NOT ADD), and its okay at best. Typical Japan stuff. 2. Zeppelin shits on all other bands. Unless its Queen. Cause they both live on an equal playing ground. 3. You're an idiot with bad taste for hating on Zepp. 4. This is now a threaded petition to ban OP.
-
This is about misleading advertising? You mean their not going to make me sweat and make me groove? :(
-
I think that the first live action trailer's music was appropriate. The second one, not so much. The Japanese ad was funny because, well, it was Japanese and the mindset of Japanese advertising.
-
I've liked the Zeppelin music in the Live-action trailers. I did not think it fit with the other one where it was all in-game footage.
-
Uh NO...
-
2 RepliesBecause Led Zep is awesome I must disagree.
-
mm yes because meghan trainor would be [i]soo[/i] much better
-
It's a typical ad aimed at reaching a large audience. I didn't love it but its definitely nothing to get too worked up about.
-
Looks like everyone agrees...that you're wrong.
-
I like the ad and music. Hype was real
-
Classic rock can fit, just feels they choose the wrong song. Back in Black of Highway to hell might have fit better.
-
2 RepliesOne thing I noticed from that destiny trailer is....... WHERE ARE MY BADASS EXPLOSIVE ROUNDS ON MY LAST WORD BUNGIE?
-
1 ReplyNo. It was awesome.
-
Was that really classic rock though?
