Iron Man 2 Possible ARG/Viral Campaign

[Redd]

But dont you think that a MArvel Ninja would have been here by now?

Or they would have e-mailed us again, giving us a clue?

 

[SpiderRock88]

i appiled for this when it was annouced, still nothing, btw, did you guys fill out the entire thing? cause i didnt get an email after that, someone please let me know if i really have to fill everything so i can do it again lol

 

[Redd]

Yes I filled the entire thing out and right to treat it like a real application.

Because if you treat like a real thing then they will too, and they will respond back.

 

[bossman550]

I really want it to start.

 

[ultrasuperduckman]

Losing hope. But I mean...it's not like we don't have time before the movie comes out.

True TDK ran for a long time. But this isn't the TDK.

So still a good chance something will turn up.

oh alright! cool ima re-do it then lol thanks man

 

[DarkReflections]

when is something gonna happen! i mean, will we get something in the mail or what?

 

[ultrasuperduckman]

I've stopped getting myself hyped over it.

If we would have received something in the mail, we would have gotten it by now.

I have really lost interest in this. Marvel hyped me up for nothing ...

Dont want to get hopes up or anything but my friend who signed up but doesnt follow the virals everyday or checks the hype everyday, said he got a response back giving a date in October. I have yet to see it but im thinking he just mixed it up with another email. He told me he thought everyone had gotten a reply so he didnt bother to tell me. i only see him about 1 every 2 weeks. ill let you know if its really anything when he fowards it. but like i said im not buying it.

if it matters he filled it out correctly or atleast to the best of his ability.

 

[kedrell]

Hell, even if I were to get anything I'd likely dump it along with the rest of my junk mail before I even realized it.

 

[Redd]

I would really take anything right now.

Even a slight change to the website.

I'm really worried that I already did this by accident.

 

[Redd]

^ I'm worried about that too.

But, since that no one else can report getting a e-mail from this viral, I think we are safe.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I considered this viral dead like a week ago.

 

[Redd]

I considered this viral dead like a week ago.

Yeah.

I don't think anything else is going to happen anytime soon, if at all.

Which is sad. I mean they could do a lot of great stuff with a Iron Man viral. I guess now we just have to sit and wait for the next Batman viral. I heard they start filming for it in January 2010.

 

[kedrell]

Meh, virals are a dumb idea anyway. Standard marketing is fine by me.

 

[Nirvana]

Well, I'm glad nothing happened while I was out of town.

 

[bossman550]

me 2 i was in jamacia

 

[Anita18]

Maybe were missing something

No, if we were missing something they'd give us some sort of clue. Not directly on the boards, but on the page. I've spoken with the people directly responsible for the TDK ARG, and if we were down a blind alley for more than a day, they'd change the game a little to lead us down the right path.

I considered this viral dead like a week ago.

The TDK viral had absolutely nothing between the game at SDCC and Halloween. We stared at Rory the pumpkin burning down for a few weeks, but even he appeared mid-October. There was NOTHING at all for 2 months, and then there was a crazy amount of stuff until December. Then Heath died and things were slow until March, and then it got crazy again.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I just don't want to wait around, hoping this viral gets huge when it never does.

 

[ultrasuperduckman]

Wish we could really "call them back" like one might do with a real job application.

 

[Redd]

I already tried that, and I got the same generic e-mail response.

 

[I Am The Bat]

I haven't lost hope entirely... I mean, something has to come from this... Maybe if the questions were all those generic questions (What kind of superhero would you be/What do you see in human kind, etc) then I might suspect nothing to come from it. BUT they had those other questions that require us to look up some stuff... Creating an investment on our part. Once that investment is made, it doesn't go away - When this viral does start it will be like we filled out the application the day before... They are probably gauging the amount of people that will most likely participate (That is probably close to over by now), seeing how much work that will be, preparing, and then implementing the content so that it will coincide and end with the film's release.

Or they could just be blowing smoke up our arses...

 

[ross2287]

Anything new on this? I've still got nothing.
