A little while back, I mentioned here a series of wonderfully oddball and extremely funny ads for a mobile telephone company in England, Orange.  As I noted, these are basically a series of commercials that run in British movie theaters. The premise is that the company supposedly has a  division, the Orange Film Board, that finances movies, run by recurring character, Mr. Dresden and Mr. Elliot.  Well-known movie stars regularly pitch ideas for films -- or one of their movies is being made, and the executives offer creative input. 



The first one I posted was with Mena Suvari.  Here's one that's just joyously goofy with Sean Astin, not long after the Lord of the Rings movies were released.
