Sparked most likely by the same coolness factor that makes me love the original commercial, YouTubers have added their own twist on the Mad, Mad World Gears of War ad by adding a new soundtrack. Check out my top 5 favorites at the jump.
"Underwater march" from Pirates of the Caribbean. This music fits so well I almost imagine this is what the commercial would have been like if the creators chose a typical instrumental soundtrack instead.
Kill bill theme. Created by the guys at Aeropause.com
"More human than human" By White Zombie. The non-orgasim version would have been better.
"Zombie" By Cranberries. God I love this song and it fits so well too.
"The day the world went away" By Nine Inch Nails. Again the lyrics and the song beat just match so well.
Got a better song to match up to the ad, then create your own Gears remixed ad and send them to us at Dtoid .

And I love it.
Anybody know the name of that song? Maybe we should ban together and buy it on iTunes. Any takers? Anyone?

way better then any others
Why can't people do this to shitty ads that need help, instead of this one which was decent to begin with?
the first one is the theme music from "Neverending Story"
As far as the other videos, I liked the Pirates one, and I liked the Cranberries one. The others didn't match up as well. The Cranberries were the first band I ever saw in concert. That must have been like ten years ago.
Wow, I haven't watched that movie in years. I used to watch it religiously, too. Fucking awesome movie, that's really all that can be said.
Btw, the book of The Neverending Story is excellent if you've never read it, the movie ends halfway through the novel.
SPOILERZ!!!
In the second part, Bastian forces the Childlike Emperess to be his bride, becomes the tyrant ruler of Fantasia, and Atreyu leads a rebellion to bring him down.
I'm totally serious.
NO FUCKIN' WAY!!! I watched that movie a shitload when I was a kid. If you're really being serious that changes things a bit for me.... I mean did you ever watch the sequel? complete crap! but the first one! DAMN!!! you officially just blew my mind.
heres one thought it would go together nicely.
