Keyword rich advertising, definitely, although promotion of movies and such will probably play just as large a role, if not a larger one. It opens up the possibility for an alliance between Google and Newscorp, with Newscorp using Google's video power and Google using Newscorp's social networking power (one of the areas in which Google, with orkut, is still weaker than Yahoo and MS). The one problem would be the bad reputation Newscorp has among a number of techie idealists... working with Murdoch would really screw with the "Don't be evil" slogan.
I don't think Google will go for tv-style advertising clips, though. That might make the thing less popular, and right now I think they are mainly aiming to consolidate their position.
