Roswell47 Posted March 5, 2011 I love how they don't acknoweledge that they've been away for 6 months. This time they've actually recorded casts and then just deleted them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forbin Posted March 5, 2011 This has bugged me forever too. It's not just that the tagline is bad, there are a ton of terrible tag lines. But they put it all over their marketing like it was pure gold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vimes Posted March 5, 2011 Aaahh, meaningful discussions intertwined with non sequitur segway.... I really missed this. Thanks guys! The discussion about the Mechanic/Dynamic/Aesthetic approach really picked my curiosity; any link for the paper mentioned by Chris? Something along the line of the Kangaroo Jack Tagline stunt happened to me : a trailer for "Nick of Time" on the French channel M6 tried to convey the 'profound' dilemna of Depp's character by saying : "Now he must choose between saving his daughter and killing the future president". It ran for two weeks, everyday, at prime time, and nobody around me seemed to be bugged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
