I just found out about it:

The pronunciation is far from perfect, but it's a nice idea ridulo.gif

Thanks for posting the youtube link, I had seen the commercials a few times and was hoping someone woule stick it up on youtube--I couldn't believe what I was hearing at first..the pronunciations were as poor as those in Gattaca or Incubus..but I still love that Esperanto is a filmmaker's first response whenever he wants to convey something that seems vaguely European-ish, and yet does not sound like any native national language. Would be nice if we could parlay this into something bigger for E-o...
