I returned home from Comic Con to a package in my mail from Dreamworks/Paramount containing a set of mini bobbleheads based on the characters in  Tropic Thunder. Click on the photos to enlarge.

At Comic Con, I actually got a chance tp see a screening of Tropic Thunder, and it was hilarious. I was one of [...]

Earlier today I posted about the cool comic con branded keys at my hotel. but I forgot to tell you about the Pixar branded Up elevator. The entire elevator is covered with a cloud print.

And in another elevator we found this Windows computer error.

Just checked in to my hotel and San Diego and was handed a hotel key with the Watchmen logo on it. Turns out, this is just one of eight comic con branded hotel keys which are available at participating Comic Con hotels. The keys include Watchmen, Terminator Salvation, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Chuck, Wonder [...]

In a Hail Mary for the ages, 20th Century Fox has that thing above cruising around the West Coast in hopes that it will make people pay to see Murphy in next month’s mini-alien bonanza, Meet Dave. I saw the trailer for this $100 million movie a couple nights [...]

Thursday we posted about the life-sized Incredible Hulk Statues that Universal sent to multiplexes nationwide. And of course, as always, The Arclight in Hollywood has something cooler. 52878 has posted photos of the Iron Man Mark III Suit which is on display now at the Arclight. Did I mention that The Arclight is probably the [...]

Yesterday when I discovered that 7-Eleven is selling new Iron Man collector Slurpee cups for around $3.50 (which includes one fill of any machine beverage). I’m not usually one for cheesy movie promotional items, but this one is pretty cool. However, I must admit that walking down the street drinking out of Iron Man’s head [...]

The faux army patch pictured above was passed out to the cast and crew of Zack Snyder’s Watchmen, following the conclusion of an epic paintball battle on the New York Backlot, which involved smoke bombs, paint grenades, and “automatic rifles that rattled windows and left fluorescent dotted lines of fire along walls.” According to a [...]

These photos of a promo statue for The Incredible Hulk popped up over at Cinematical and were apparently snapped at a toy fair. In what’s probably a clear indicator of the Hulk’s size in this June’s reboot starring Edward Norton, note the lady and decked-out Humvee to the statue’s right (as well as a [...]

UK-based company Synthetic Dimensions has gotten the rights to create a fully licensed lenticular 3D recreation of the original Star Wars Poster. I’m not exactly sure how they’ve done it, but they used the Synthetic Dimensions’ proprietary Syndimation process to convert the original 2D painting used in 1977 to promote the Star Wars. This unique, [...]

Moviefone snagged the official teaser poster for Quantum of Solace, and I say mehhh. This poster takes advantage of the minimalism that’s so trendy right now, and so exquisitely exercised by Funny Games (this poster is mine, whether the remake sucks or not, do not care) and milks it until its literally dust. Playing [...]

Move over Cloverfield Monster. Godzilla beware, a new monster is running amuck in Japan. Don’t worry, it’s only one of the coolest movie promotions of recent years.

I’ve written about some of the cool Juno t-shirt promos that Fox Searchlight passed out at the advanced screenings. But check out this killer Hamburger phone that was sent out to select critics. The box art features the quote from the movie:
“Can you hold on for a second? I’m on my hamburger phone. It’s just [...]

Most of us are aware of the viral baked cakes sent to the media to promote The Dark Knight, but back in December soft rocker John Mayer received something arguably cooler. Inside a package from a fictional company called Gotham Novelties, Inc., he discovered a limited edition Joker t-shirt and a [...]
