Actually saying "unethical" was a bit much.

Well let's assume the future was won by Randian acolytes and 'ethics' are an amusing thing people participate in reenactment societies for, like Civil War battles and the like.

Well, the look & feel of everything seems to be good, & the cast is good enough. I'm just hoping the script is good enough to warrant any fanboy hope(mine or others).

I'm going to pretend it is just some sci-fi action movie and hope there aren't any noisy dudes sitting behind me snorting and stage whispering about some comic books or novelizations or whatever dot com theories around some detail in the backround in one frame of alien^3

I'm enjoying the fake commercials, but mostly because thy're content-free w/r/t the movie. I have the problem that I always do with trailers in that I usually enjoy the experience more having walked in without much foreknowledge.

the latest david commercial is p awesome. the TED talk was a little eye-rolling but still fun as a poitless teaser.

I still wonder a bit exactly how much they ARE giving away. I have this suspicion it's far less than it seems.

maybe im a particularly suspicious soul, but this level of marketing generally bespeaks a less than awes movie.

― A Little Princess btw (s1ocki), Monday, 30 April 2012 22:59 (twelve years ago) link
im perhaps being solipsistic but ive been assailed with marketing for this thing in a way that seems quite excessive, which leads me to surmise that reviews and word of mouth for this will be poor, but they've decided to throw a great amount of money at marketing in order to achieve respectable numbers regardless. this pet theory may of course be bunkum. i tend to be often wrong.
