TV ads on DVDs?!?

[bagelsncheesey]

The moon thing is true. I've seen the ads on billboards and tv. They will supposedly cast it on the next full moon.

Also, I think advertising in general is pretty common in movies and such these days. I was watching Appleseed Ex Machina yesterday and noticed several Japanese toymaker ads in it, including Takara Tomy (on the blimp thing that flies around outside).

How is that even possible

Good question...I have no friggin' idea.

I think the devil and souls are involved

I think you are right


I am gonna pissed though if I find out that me selling my soul is somehow funding Starbucks images on the moon.

According to your link, it is all an advertising campaign, and is a hoax. I was worried there for a second...

Yeah, I know. I just wanted everyone else to have the same worried feeling 'til they read the article too.

Well then I would like to know what the hell it was I saw......was it part of this elaborate hoax??? it wasn't top notch...but more like those huge lights they use when there is a grand opening somewhere and you can see the lights rising up for what seems like a mile.....somehow they were able to project an image up there....it was fuzzy...but it was there. Oh well...hopefully it was some kind of prank and that will be the end of it. I hope anyway.

Was it perhaps shining on clouds?

You were the Guinea Pig for their 'Beamvertising' Jen, you were the first subject to have an Ad Beamed directly into your brain! Congrats!!

Maybe.

Hell, if it keeps it off the moon, I'm all for DVD adverts.

I hate advertising, so much that I wont watch live TV. I'll record something to my Pioneer Hard Drive recorder, delete all the ads and then watch it.

I also have a rule for ads in the cinema, they're now showing a rake of ads before the trailers, then the trailers and then more ads. My solution? I refuse to buy any product advertised on screen in the cinema.

Screw em!

I feel so used and abused!!! I've been VIOLATED!!!!

Sadly, I was not on anything.....that I know of...I did drink some tap water when I ran out of bottled water....perhaps there is something with that flouride after all.

Dun, dun, duuuuuun!

I get really frustrated with recent anime dvds I bought which won't let you skip the commericals up front, no matter how many times you've played it.

And on a Disney blu-ray the first promo they have for their other blu-ray titles is unskippable.

 

[galactiboy]

I had noticed that on some Anime disks... the annoying part is I kinda like getting trailers (and seeing them before movies) but you shouldn't have to be forced to watch them before a DVD you purchased.

And back to the original point lol) unrelated TV commercials should have no place on movies you buy for home viewing.

I thought you weren't a fan of anime? Or just not a fan of the "anime" look?

On the bright side, porn dvds cum commercial free

 

[FrankenFan]

the first thing that comes on is a anti-smoking TV commercial! Thats just a load of crap!

Personally, I'm for anti-smoking TVs. The reception is far superior and it's so much easier to breathe while watching.
