Here are a couple viral marketing hits that are out and being used to promote upcoming films.
Flying People In New York
With Chronicle coming out on Friday, here’s a video of a team of RC plane enthusiasts in New York City with human-shaped crafts, creating the illusion of people flying above some of the city.
Here is a conspiracy theory website that’s promoting MIB3. “BugEyes126 (@).(@)” who is a 14-year-old kid that “lives in the middle of nowhere and has been following groups of Men In Black Suits who seem involved in covering up alien activities”. There isn’t a lot of content on there now (6 posts), but it is definitely something to keep an eye on as we get closer to the release of the movie!
It is that time of week, where we save you time by telling you what you absolutely can’t miss this week in the Geek world of comics, television, movies and of course, video games.
Chronicle is a new movie hitting theaters February 3rd. It is another super hero movie, but it doesn’t look like another super hero movie. It has that handheld camera look that we got with Cloverfield and The Blair With Project. Let’s look at the trailer that gives us a little, but not too much.
Fatale #2 comes out February 1st from Image Comics. It’ is the continuation of the Horror/Noir story from Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips. I picked up the first issue, because of the hype surrounding it, and I was not disappointed, Marvel and DC Comics have even more competition from the other guys.
Final Fantasy XIII – 2 from Square Enix comes out January 31st. It’s the much-anticipated, sequel to the 2009 hit. It picks up three years after the Final Fantasy XIII, with the previous main character (Lightning) missing, and the search for her as the main plot. If you can pull yourself away from SkyRim, this might be worth checking out.
Hey Dude – Season 2 comes out January 31st on double disc. If you watched Nickelodeon during the 90′s, then remember this show, and its very strange premise: it was basically Salute Your Shorts, the cowboy version.
The Woman In Black comes out February 3rd. Daniel Radcliffe stars in a remake of the 1989 horror TV movie of the same name. Looks like he’s ready to get away from the wizard world as fast as possible, with this movie that has the same visual tone as The Others.
