I would like all the people who call [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tweetfast1) useless to check out the [Orange](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solutionoriented-holiday-ad) 'This Summer' movie-style voiceover program. U.K. cellphone company Orange has debuted a fun new application that converts statuses with the hash-tag "this summer" into movie-style voiceovers.

The voiceovers manage to turn mundane summer updates into epic faux [movie trailer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/national-advertising-campaign) lead-ins. The person doing the voiceovers is good, and the application manages to pronounce most words right without sounding like a robot. The movie-style tweets can be shared with friends or saved so that you never forget how epic your summer of studying and drinking slurpees really was. The video here has all the info about the Orange 'This Summer' movie-style voiceover application. If this doesn't take over Twitter, I don't know what will.
