Harrison Ford is a great guy, great actor... but he's also 69 years old. It's bad enough he just did another "Indiana Jones" movie. Now he's playing video games? Come on, now.Ford is in a Japanese commercial for "Uncharted 3," which many critics are already hailing as the best PS3 game of the year, and the premise is simple: Turn on the game, hand the him the controller, and start filming. There's a longer seven minute version that shows him literally playing through a scene in the game, laughing out loud and declaring how "fantastic" and "remarkable" the game is.
The 30-second cut used for the commercial is more subtle. It's understated, ironic, funny. Bearable. But that unedited version is almost too much to watch. It's not completely clear how sincere he is, and at times it appears he really is enjoying the game and involuntarily telling his characters to move faster, but there are clearly forced moments throughout.
By the way. At the end of the commercial, it definitely sounds like he says "So gay." We did a little research and discovered he's actually saying "Sugee," which is Japanese for "Awesome." In case you were wondering.
