Gandalf The Grey: Office Wizard

Written by Paul van Veenendaal on July 28th, 2008 | 2 comments

While making the video game “The Hobbit“, published in 2003, Sierra Entertainment created the spoof video “Gandalf the Grey: Office Wizard“.

The spoof of the Los Angeles-based video game developer and publisher, a subsidiary of Vivendi Games, is based on Reebok’s legendary Terry Tate Office Linebacker viral from 2002, where retired NFL Linebacker Terry Tate enforces the office rules at the Felcher and Sons’ headquarters the only way he knows how: with bone-crushing tackles and hard-core trash-talk.

  Think you are very right: this is certainly a Terry Tate copycat campaign.
