Well, if is some kind of scripted marketing ploy, I suppose we, the core constituency, have an assigned role to play not unlike what we are actually doing.
Dawn's mysterious PR consultant is likely counting on us to raise a clamor and be like the fans who are photographed pitching their tents impatiently outside the theaters fighting for tickets to this "world premiere" screening. That would make this one case where it's definitely OK to complain, and the louder the better. To extend the iPhone analogy, at some point (hint, hint...) they might let a supposedly "stolen" photograph slip out and we could have a controversy about whether it's authentic or not. Somebody on the inside at DSN could be observed showing it off in a bar after hours... |
