I'm asking the question "Is Paramount advertising enough for the new movie?" I was at my local Wal-Mart last night and there were 5 guys some around my age (36) and some maybe younger- they were looking at Transformer Toys and I asked them if they are going to see the new live action G.I.Joe movie. What they said next shocked the Hell of me! They said "What new live action G.I.Joe movie?" So I walked them over to the toys hanging on the pegs. They asked "When is this coming out?!" So I told them Aug 7th. They said "Unreal- that's pretty cool!" So I wonder if Paramount needs to have more TV trailers! So what do you folks make of these guys unaware of RoC? :S

driving on the freeway, I see two large digital bilboards advertising Rise Of Cobra movie. I'd say they are making a good effort at advertising. Plus, they did spend the big money on the Superbowl ad time.

ROC has the support of the retailers. You can go to Walmart, Target, etc. and see ROC back packs, ROC party supplies, etc. so people who go to these stores probably know that there is an ROC movie coming out.

Plenty of Tv spots so I think is pretty good exposure.

When's that movie come out?
On topic, I think they are doing a good job, I'm seeing a lot the TV Spots on different channels and shows. Also posters at train stations, and all the in-store products.

Man, I see Rise of COBRA stuff EVERYwhere, and I live in the boonies. Plastered all over the internet, signs up, store promotions, 7-11, Burger King, etc... it's everywhere.
Hell, we're up to 10 TV Spots already and there's still 2 weeks until release. I think they're doing a really good job. Justin |

I only get to watch and hour and a half of television a day when I get home, but I see at least one commercial every night between 9 and 10 PM.

Every 7 Eleven has Rise of Cobra posters and liquid armor slurpee ads all over the place...there are a lot of 7 elevens around here...most the stores have ROC stuff out...even saw ROC gift bags at K-mart...strange how transformers guys (assuming they saw Rise of the fallen) wouldn't know about the movie seeing as the trailer was on before ROTF...the week/few days before the movie i'm sure yahoo and such will have the trailer playing on it's home page...
