So I Was Delivered A Heart On Ice in the Mail…

A Styrofoam container showed up at my desk the other day. It looked like an ice chest, and it was filled with all kinds of goodies. Both normal and grotesque. And it was enough to get me more than a little giddy about the upcoming movie Repo Men:

Let me walk you through my grizzly adventure. Here’s what I found, waiting at my desk:

I open the lid:

    You Can Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S III Now, but It’ll Cost You

    It’s “friggin’ huge,” as my colleague Jared Newman recently quipped, and Samsung’s Galaxy S III is also going to be friggin’ expensive if you’re in the U.S. and want firsties. While the phone’s stateside launch date is still “early June,” Amazon has started taking pre-orders for the international version.

    wow. The movie doesn’t look great but they certainly earn some points for creative (and expensive) promotional swag :)

    so THIS is the genesis of all those stellar movie revies for less than stellar movies (read: any positive review for Van Helsing). I hope they didnt buy your vote.

    Um, no, styrofoam does not buy my vote. Home entertainment system? Maybe. But why are you both assuming this movie’s gonna suck? I think there’s some intriguing dark genius at work here – mixing the current health care debate/recession fallout/foreclosure crisis with an all-out horror yarn. I’m seeing this next Monday, and I really think it COULD be good. That said, no, nothing could save Van Helsing. Not even a home entertainment system.

    For the record: we get tons of swag for everything and anything on a daily basis. None of that stuff sways our vote one way or another.
