Starting to see the new TV ads with the critics responses attached to them. Much needed!!

When did you see them (during which show, and on what channel?) I was hoping they'd run another ad during "Lost" this week, but they didn't.

"Hamsters is nice."

There was one awesome one during "Veronica Mars." I posted about it just an hour or two ago here: http://fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=13516

Had "Two thumbs up" and a bunch of other goodies!

Edited to Add: It was after 8 pm, this night, on UPN. I was worried Uni had decided the film wasn't worth 2nd week ads, but looks like they're still behind us. Yay Uni!

Saw it during a rerun of CSI on Spike TV; then turned on the TV Guide channel and saw a fifteen-minute except from the Sci-Fi Channel special above the program crawl. Shiny!

Wednesday is traditionally the point where studios start to hype the weekend. Looks like Universal is doing their best to drive up the second-weekend take. More power to them!

So this a 2nd one where it shows that people have been saying good things about it? Or the same one that has been playing for days?

As thrilled as I am with Universal's support of us, I have been dismayed by the amount of Serenity ads I have seen on tv, as compared to the amount for other movies.
They could at least load them up on the tv stations they own, like NBC.

Oh thank god! I need to start asking my students if they're seeing them! These ads are much needed!

FYI, I did see the new commercial as referenced above (two thumbs up, etc.) while watching Leno. I was excited to see it and thought it was an appropriate place for an ad. Hopefully, we'll se more.


Keeping the faith.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


Shiny!

New tv ads w/ critics comments will help get people into theatres this weekend, but that doesn't mean we can let up for a minute.

Keep up the efforts Browncoats!

OH Hurrah! Does anybody remember which critical blurbs are featured in the new adverts??? Besides the two thumbs, I mean. I've seen such *great* quotes on the 'Boards and I hope Universal has used some of the good ones (except, maybe not the kitten-killing threat cuz then animal rights people --notoriously missing sense of humor -- will start an attack campaign that would not be helpful).

So, transcript for us, in case we never see the ad?
Help?

Are you kidding? An attack ad campaign would be *fantastic*! Controversy and the free advertising that goes with it. Wow, I wish. That's what pushed "Flight Plan" up last week--a dopey attack by some flight attendants' group telling people to boycott the movie that got play on every media outlet.

If only we could get a picture of Nathan in bed with Brad Pitt... there's be no stopping this movie ;-)

Disturbing image. My brain is melting.

someone sent me this pic:

http://www.iesb.net/movies2/Nathan%20Fillion,%20Ruth%20Anne%20and%20Ad
am%20Tudyk-IGC02.JPG


which, to me, is not as disturbing as the Pitt/Fillion picture described above.

Imagine the interest if there was an unsubstantiated report that Katie Holmes was really pregnant with Nathan's love child and she hooked up with Tom Cruise to legitimize her claim of being a virgin until finding true love (updated ala Bush from 'until marriage').
