Viral Marketing

I guess ads aren't good enough anymore. Somehow I doubt that all the extra work that goes into this kind of stuff actually gets more people to see a movie. They really do call it "viral marketing."

Anyway, so I never click on ads in Facebook, but this one said something about being "committed to regulating non-human activity on earth." How could I not look? It takes you to www.d-9.com, some kind of alert system for non-human activity. There are other sites, www.multinationalunited.com and www.mnuspreadslies.com

All of this is for some sci-fi movie about aliens coming to earth. The websites are nicely done, with lots of detail, but will I actually go to see the movie? No. I'm so glad I got out of graphic design.
