I mean, at least you won't get something as obvious as the BK placement in <I>Iron Man</I> (I kept expecting RDJ to say "Mmmmm. Now that's a tasty Whopper." on his way to the press conference), but it's still annoying.<BR/><BR/>That said, I loved that stuff when I was a kid (collectable glasses, toys, Underoos, whatever), so ... I dunno.Dylan Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15550687762896316858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-74869057280822292502008-06-10T12:41:00.000-07:002008-06-10T12:41:00.000-07:00a friend of mine invited me to see indy but i refu...a friend of mine invited me to see indy but i refused on principle. the whole marketing campaign really annoys me. i can see 20 ads on tv for the film but none of them are the actual movie ad. just ads for indy inspired whoppers or toys or laundry detergent.<BR/><BR/>which now that i think about it would be sorta cool seeing as how dirty indy gets on his adventures.<BR/><BR/>my friend HATED the new indy!!Jason Quinoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324204128133025864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-11613837467987578122008-06-10T10:20:00.000-07:002008-06-10T10:20:00.000-07:00You better post about the Indy thing before the on...You better post about the Indy thing before the only word you can muster is "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"-https://www.blogger.com/profile/16065629845969834028noreply@blogger.com
