This, ladies and gentleman, is how careers are launched. It used to be that if you directed commercials (Michael Bay), music videos (David Fincher et al) or television (Michael Mann), that you'd eventually get called up to the majors.

We can't be too far off from a rash of viral videographers signing movie deals, if web personalities like LonelyGirl can get a contract, right? All it takes is the right creativity at the right time.

I'll admit that the production values in this spoof aren't that high, by the effect is tremendous. John McCain, struggling to make up ground in the campaign for President, hires some of Hollywood's big directors to make some last minute political ads. So here are three of his new commercials, "directed by" John Woo, Kevin Smith, and Wes Anderson.
