- Bill Green has been sucked in by the poster for Grindhouse.
- Warner Bros. has announced a ton and a half of promotional partners for the new, CGI Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles flick.
- Ghost Rider apparently won the weekend box-office race, but I’m expecting this to drop like a rock in its second week.
- Director (and I use the term loosely) Michael Bay says the ads for Transformers won’t spoil much. What’s to spoil? Big robots bring their war to Earth, wackiness ensues.
- Some people are beginning to feel that the Berlin International Film Festival is, because of its timing after the Oscar nominations have been announced, becoming just another part of a movie’s marketing campaign as opposed to a true artistic festival.
- Marketing guru Hugh Mcleod is doing some pimping for 300.
- There’s some question as to whether the Number 23 poster ripped off a Lou Reed album cover.
- While I like the new poster for Grindhouse that’s been released my statements about the recent trailer stand here as well. [Via]
- James has been putting up a bunch of good movie-related ads lately. Check out one for a Spider-Man 3 contest that revolved around Valentines Day, one for Reno 911: The Movie, and one for Amazing Grace. And, as we get closer to the Oscars, make sure you’re keeping up with his complete archive of the online For Your Consideration ads.
