I was in a commercial that Ridley directed back in 1977ish. It was an ad for "Super-Bazooka" bubble-gum. I was the "Bionic boy". This was in the U.K. by the way. I remember that it hit the air right before "Star Wars" came out. I Used to go to the Dominion theater in London to see Star Wars every weekend for months. Then one time they showed the ad before the movie. (I think this pinpoints the time that they first started showing adverts in movie theaters)Anyway, ever since, I have been wondering how to get a copy. Consumer VCR's didn't exist till about two years later. Any ideas? I’m hoping someone out there can help me. I was in a commercial that Ridley directed back in 1977ish.

Also (as anyone who has watched Blade Runner: Final Cut would know) Ridley was actually considering a hat like the one in the bank ad for Deckard.

He would definitely be a good one to direct that Cowboy Bebop live action movie. I just want himn to get back into exciting fun movies though all the ones he's done for the last few years have been decent they just don't compare to Alien, Bladerunner, Legend, The Duelist, and a few others that he did in the 80's.
