Wait... so now we've moved on to global warming and GE being behind all this?? lol!
What happened to the crop circles idea? Cause I don't see the part where NBC or GE or any movie company is advertising the crop circles in relation
to the movie. Could you please provide that link? Most people still don't even know what 'Knowing' is about.
Stereo ~ I'm fully behind you on the idea of new strategies in marketing. Really I am. But what people here are trying to point out is that crop
circles are really weak for advertising unless you at least have something suggestive about the movie imprinted with it. Especially when it's
surrounded by dozens of other crop circles that carry many different meanings. If this was your crop circle for advertising, wouldn't you want to
put it someplace where it would stand out more and really get attention?
The image needs to 'click' with people... suggesting the movie. A jellyfish in the middle of a farmer's field doesn't click with the movie. And
having (or even paying) a site to suggest the idea of a solar flare is still far from enough media attention that's needed to sell a dvd. The few
people who were anticipating this event are already moving on to other theories.
Your idea is really cute, and I admire you for standing with your suggestion. It's been an interesting read.
(Forgot to mention... when the Blossom Goodchild event didn't happen, it just ended up being a disappointment and a blame game. People were too busy
arguing to think about Indiana Jones... same problem might be happening now as well.)
