I'm sick and tired of seeing the new Star Wars movie being advertised fucking EVERYWHERE. From toys to clothes to candy, food and coffee creamer packaging to lip gloss and mascara to a fucking Verizon commercial. This is the most massive shilling I've ever seen for a movie.
Welcome to the next 20 years

Phantom Menace was a million times worse. You're getting off easy in terms of marketing with Force Awakens.
>>62773042
I know right? It's like they're trying to make money or something. So lame.
>>62773042
>This is the most massive shilling I've ever seen for a movie.
How old were you when Phantom Menace came out? That was a lot worse.
>>62773082
This. Seems like most babbies here aren't even old enough to remember prequel marketing
a month ago this board was flooded with
>WHERES THE TRAILER
>Anyone else concerned its opening in two months and we've seen nothing
>No commercials, no marketing? Fuck it must be bad
Now:
>I'm sick and tired of seeing the new Star Wars movie being advertised fucking EVERYWHERE.
>>62773082
Fucking this, it was horrible.
>>62773291
The "wheres the trailer" shit were all made by shills trying to create hype. /tv/ was actually making fun of those threads and always degenerated in shitposting generals.
>>62773082
How can you expect people who were born in 1997 to know how bad it was in 1999?
>>62773337
/tv/ went along with all of it and gobbled it up like horse cum
>>62773042
>Not buying SW mascara
What are you a faggot?
>>62773368
exactly bruh these niggas so young and a nigga ain't even that old too
>>62773368
I think I need to lie down
>>62773057
Fucking love French vanilla. Tastes amazing.
>>62773042
>I can't emotionally handle Capitalism
>>62773042
I don't mind the advertisements, I've seen worse, but the threads on /tv/ are annoying.
Yours too btw.

man, I was 10 years old when Episode I came out. I really can't remember the marketing that well for the movie, its kinda a blur.
I do remember some weird commercial where the taco bell dog, some pizza delivery girl and Col Sanders were fighting driods and shit with light sabres. Anyone else remember that?
I seem to remember my friends older brother who was 18 buying a bunch of toys and shit.
The extend light sabres came out around that time, every kid owned one.
>>62773521
I was 19 at the time, and yes I remember those Yum! Brands commercials. Some pretty lame shit as I recall.
Although I did get to witness the humor of collectors buying bag after bag of Lay's potato chips in order to get the UPC so they could send off for a ghost Obi-Wan figure. Cause you know they were totally going to be worth a lot of money someday.
>>62773082
It was not worse, atleast back then you could get away from it on the internet, now the internet is where Star Wars ads are most prominent, and then you have the whole shill component which really didn't exist then and the fact that Disney has bottomless pockets for funding while George Lucas did not.

>atleast back then you could get away from it on the internet

You sound like an ineffectual dweeb.
>>62773042
it's called marketing senpai
>>62773082
H-ha ha yeah this
I was totally in my teens/an adult when this movie came out like everyone else quoting it
“Star Wars” fans can now wear their hearts on their sleeves.
Hot Topic has joined forces with another retailer, Her Universe, founded by “Star Wars Rebels” voice actor Ashley Eckstein, to launch a collection of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”-themed clothes.
Aside from celebrating female nerdom, the clothing line is also meant to encourage fans to share their love for the sci-fi franchise on social media using the hashtag #MyStarWarsStory.
The new collection includes a Darth Vader dress, leather jacket and sweater; Leia dress; BB-8 and Boba Fett bomber jackets; “The Force Awakens” tour t-shirt; and R2-D2 sweater.

>>62773042
Stay mad,goy.
>>62773732
You fucking autists bring it up here more than any other website. Seriously. Even if it is bitching about it, there are always 3-4 TFA threads on /tv/
You all do it for free.
>>62773938
Only in the relatively improbable case the movie is a total flop.
Disney will want as little talking as possible about it and the mods will comply.
>>62773856
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>62773396
She's just asking for a cunt punt.
>J. J. Abrams
They finally get rid of George Lucas and replace him with someone almost as bad. Might as well have gotten Roland Emmerich or Michael Bay.
>>62773938
Never
Have you seen some of the garbage threads that are babysat? It's clear the site(or a mod)is being paid off
>>62773732
Are people not able to get off the internet like they were back in the 90s?
>>62774037
I mean look at right now

>How old were you
I wanted to see how many posts it took for someone to say the exact first thing that popped into my mind. I mean the internet's larger now so we can actually be less inundated with this movie just by going outside if we choose. Wasn't so with TPM.
>>62773906
That is one ugly jacket, damn.

>The Chihuahua was a chihuahua dog fighting the dark side around the time of the Battle of Naboo to free the tacos.
>He tirelessly devoted his life to the pursuit of tacos. This dedication has allowed him to heighten his natural skills of navigation, negotiation and general deviousness. He put his considerable talents to work fighting the ultimate evil in the universe. Because, he rationalized, when the universe is free, the tacos are free. During that time, he was working on the Jedi mind trick.
>>62773042
It's Star Wars + Disney. Did you really NOT expect this?
>>62773873
This is the only one I'm okay with, the rest need to burn with that shitty store.
>>62773732
>shill component
> grassroots advertising on 4chan for a Disney backed Star Wars film
You are substantially overestimating the importance of this site.
>>62773856
*b-burn down hotopic*
>>62773042
the jews can't afford their kuck propaganda and degeneracy of the last pieces of americana to fail
>>62775243
This. Disney throatfucks the public with every one of their marketing campaigns.
For example: Frozen.
I rest my case.
>Force Awakens
>advertised everywhere
>it's only Kylo Ren, storm troopers and the occasional chick
They really don't want to advertise the black man, don't they, I've literally seen nothing of him in marketing.
>>62773082
Why aren't all these kids at school?
>>62777453
Such a white knight. Which is pretty ironic.
>>62773368
i'm 24, i can't even remember what the marketing for that was like, but i remember blair witch and the matrix and they weren't even bigger
>>62773368
Nice try shill lmao
>>62773042
You can thank the Jews for that.
Marketing for Revenge of the Sith was worse.
Literally the entire marketing was "Hey, Darth Vader is in this one". He was splashed over every single piece of merchandise and advertising.
>>62777818
And then he kills children. Lmfao I wonder what it was like being a parent and watching that character arc with your kid.
>>62778218
My friend says it was a gradual progression to the child-killing scene.
I disagree.
Thoughts?
