Viral Marketing Again!

serious.JPGIf you’ve read our news about Cloverfield you’ve come to realize that I am a HUGE advocate of Viral Marketing. It’s the next step in movie promotion and when done right can enhance the movie going experience — but you don’t really MISS too much if you don’t want to be bothered. It’s the next evolution in movie teasers and I welcome it with open arms… as long as it’s done right.

Another example of it going right was discovered semi-recently over at Why So Serious? where a pumpkin that more than resembles the pumpkin from the cover of “The Long Halloween”… in fact it is exactly the same pumpkin. Talk about getting it right… as we all know “The Long Halloween” tells the origins of Two-Face (aka Harvey Dent), continues the story of Carmine Falcone and the mysterious killings to his entire Mafia Clan.

Now what’s going on from what we can tell over at Why So Serious since this pumpkin has appeared the candle on the inside has been slowly melting and going away over time… with a major announcement probably coming around the time that candle goes out… October 31st 2007…. Halloween.

What could be happening in the upcoming Batman film “The Dark Knight” ? What are we going to see when that candle goes out? Only one way to find out… wait til October 31st and visit the site!

Also for a bit of fun, go ahead and wave your mouse over the flame, it reacts pretty well!

  • I know we've been really slacking on updates -- however sometimes it looks like the "we" is a "me". I haven't really heard from Calypso or Tommy in quite a long time and it's been getting tough to update from work and when I'm home I just want to sleep. I'm sorry for the slow updates since the Bigfoot Mania. I'm working on a few reviews (Hellboy 2, Tropic Thunder, Metallica's "Death Magnetic") as well as a few featured articles about Binaural Beats, and other weird things like such. Not to mention the fact that the curiosity of life is slowly wearing thin as I get older... but thats for an entire post I am sure... also I am holding back from doing yet another site redesign because well I get bored... often.

  • So I'm sitting at work and needed a drink so I got up, went to the Caf. checked out the vending machine next to the water machine and saw these: Starburst GummiBursts! Yeah I may be on a diet but this was new and exciting. Could they capture starbursts unique flavor joy in a squishy gummi with a juicy center? Quick answer. YES.
