The Best of the Worst in Shamless Promotions

Written by admin | Visited 650 times, 7 so far today

There is nothing I love more than terrible movie cross promotions in TV shows.  Thankfully, this one looks legit.

Against all odds, this show just became even more homoerotic.

But this isn’t the worst cross promotion of all-time is it? Let’s explore:

5. RoboCop invades WCW:

Thankfully, the contractors used to build that cage were immediately hunted down and killed as a result of their use of painted styrofoam to build the cage.

4. Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore run unto the field after the Red Sox won the World Series to promote the cult classic Fever Pitch.

This movie is referred to as a cult classic because everyone who sat through the entire thing put their car into a guard rail at 100 mph immeadiatly after leaving the theater.

These clowns tried to make themselves the center of the championship attention.  I was hoping that Papelbon would Riverdance all over Jimmy Fallon’s Yankee face.  Keep laughing into the camera whenever you say something remotely funny pal.  We are as surprised as you are that you put an entire joke together without giggling. Of course, you will undoubtedly screw it up by chortling like a schoolgirl as soon as you get the joke out of your mouth.

3. SpiderMan 2 ads on the Bases -

Major League Baseball smartly nixed this promotion following fan backlash.  However, I have no clue how this made it out of the marketing department in the first place.

2. Red Bull’s F1 Pit Crew dresses up like Storm Troopers

"Redbull, the official drink of NEEEERRRRRDDDDSSSSS."

1. Nike using the Oregon football team as running, throwing and tackling billboards.

Every couple years Nike comes out with some "innovative," disgusting looking jersey for the Oregon ducks to play football in.  Phil Knight throws a gigantic swoosh on their and unveils three or four hideous jersey and pant combination that he expects the media to fawn over.  Of course, we all take the bait and pay attention for some reason and Nike gets all kinds of pub.

The only Oregon ducks jersey I have ever been impressed with was only impressive because this hot chick was wearing it.
