jk, I don't mind, it's a bit jarring but they gotta get the word out, make advertising dough, etc. etc.

I don't know? Oh man, a 20 year flash-back...
Yeah, when I arrived at the site I realized that Wicked is saving marketing bucks by only putting ONE ad in the NY Times a year and not advertising here!
But hey, this is why we don't have to pay for these message boards!

Posted: 11/7/08 at 10:06amI think it's sneaky way to promote a show -- BWW should be an objective site when listing its features, latest news articles, etc., etc. It's fine to advertise openly but this is almost like jamming the show down everyone's throat. Beware, Shrek monitors, readers may throw up and avoid the show.

It's not a big deal. It'll probably only be around for a couple days, it's cute, and let's face it, if Gypsy, [tos] or Xanadu did this, you'd all be ecstatic.
Let's have some perspective here, people.
#37re: And suddenly, it's green
Posted: 11/7/08 at 10:13amActually, I don't think I'd feel any different if it were for another show. Even though we all realize that Shrek paid for it; it certainly SEEMS as though BWW is endorsing it: and they shouldn't be endorsing anything.

Posted: 11/7/08 at 10:17amIt's purely advertising. That's like saying a TV station that runs commercials endorses every product it runs ads for.

HEY!
It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that
It's not easy being green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky
But green's the color of Spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like an ocean, or important
Like a mountain, or tall like a tree
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful
And I think it's what I want to be!
:)

Posted: 11/7/08 at 11:50amSo has anyone joined this Shrekster thing? I did, out of morbid curiosity. It's actually pretty entertaining, although you don't have to join to see any of it.

Posted: 11/7/08 at 3:36pmI didn't even realize it was for Shrek at first. I just thought it was a post-Halloween thing BWW was trying. So Fail on you Shrekster. You and your lame marketing attempts. :P

Hideous or not, it worked! We're all talking about it...
Well done, I say.

Posted: 11/8/08 at 12:10amNot if they're being paid to run it for a certain amount of time, they can't.
