You guys may have found this already, but if you haven't, here's a bit of hysterical satire from The Onion. You
know, some fun reading for your weekend. It seems this man is thrilled about Mission: Impossible 3,
but not the movie itself. In fact, he doesn't really mention the movie at all, it's the advertising he's excited about.
The bus ads! The billboards! The tie-ins! Really, you should just go check it out, it's damn funny, not to mention an
accurate portrayal of how bad movies are built up through multi-million dollar ad campaigns to seem somehow less
crappier than they really are. And no, the fact that I write about advertising for this blog isn't lost on me. It's
okay to laugh at yourself. It's crying at yourself that isn't okay. In fact, that's just weird.The Onion is psyched over Mission: Impossible ads
