Wow! Pre-order the Prometheus dvd and get discount on movie tickets!
With just one week to go until Ridley Scott’s return to sci-fi hits theaters in the form of Prometheus, the U.K. has received it early and some very positive word has been coming forward. While some say it’s not exactly what they were hoping for, it’s still a very solid outing that has plenty of profound meeting and not as much Alien as some may have been expecting. Now, it seems 20th Century Fox has one more piece of marketing up their sleeve as they’ve revealed the film will open up pre-orders for home release already…with an extra incentive twist.
The never ending list of my favourite people » Michael Fassbender
Vulture- otherwise known as an Internet representation of my every thought- had a great little story of one entertainment writer’s encounter with the outside world.
But over the weekend, this writer mentioned Michael Fassbender in passing to a group of friends, only to find that no one in the conversation even recognized his name. You know, the handsome guy in the arty naked movie, we prompted. Blank stares. Nothing. Frankly, we were stunned.
What does this mean? How do you not know Michael Fassbender- center of my universe? The writer continues.
Baffled, this writer convened the bloggers at Vulture HQ to help administer a highly unscientific poll, in which we asked random friends, family members, and baristas the simple question: “Do you know who Michael Fassbender is?” The results were shocking (and really pretty fun)! “I don’t think so. Who is it?” “I don’t know. Can I Google now?” “Only that he’s that guy from the movie with the penis. I don’t think I would recognize him.” The more “no”s we got, the more people we contacted, and the answers were strangely consistent: Our non-blogger acquaintances are not at all familiar with the wonderful Irish thespian Michael Fassbender. Not his acting, not even his penis.
There is truly something wrong with the media if there are living souls who do not know Michael Fassbender.
Do you know who Michael Fassbender is? Do your friends, co-workers, and relatives?
