MindSign Neuromarketing is a company that measures people’s brain activity to see the effectiveness of consumer marketing. “At MindSign Neuromarketing they use our brain response technology to provide our clients in the advertising, entertainment, political, and software industries with data revealing what their target consumer is thinking while using their product, and seeing their ads.”
The company posted someone’s reaction to the much anticipated Inglourious Basterds’ trailer and as you can see by their reaction of the axial, sagittal, and coronal planes that person is as excited as I am for Quentin Tarantino’s WWII epic movie starring Brad Pitt and Eli Roth. Seriously how f*cking cool is that technology!
On the Final Destination 2 DVD, one of the special features is they measured a person’s brain activity as they watched the death scenes in the movie to see if they really scared the crap out of people and it did! I thought that feature was one of the coolest things I ever saw on DVD, so I think it is really neat that MindSign Neuromarketing is using that technology to measure consumers’ reactions to trailers and TV shows.
If you check out MindSign Neuromarketing’s YouTube Channel you can so other people’s reaction to other trailers and TV spots and none them were as excited at the different videos as they were for Inglourious Basterds!
BTW both Inglourious Basterds and Final Destination: Death Trip 3D are coming out on August 21st and that is too much excitement for my brain!!! My brain map would be full of color if they measured it about August 21st!!!
Joe Dante, who directed such classics like Gremlins, Piranha and The Howling has created the brilliant site Trailers From Hell. On this site other brilliant directors and writers like Stuart Gordon, Edgar Wright and Eli Roth do audio commentary on their favorite trailers from year’s past! It is really cool to listen how that movie inspired them or little tidbits about the movie. Like for example in the above video Eli Roth talks how the ’80s classic movie Rock ‘N’ Roll High School was almost Disco High School. Could you imagine that movie with the likes of the Bee Gees being the same and becoming the cult classic it became? Maybe with The Village People, but most Disco acts would not have anywhere near the impact that movie made just because The Ramones were in it!!! But it is little things like that that make the site reall y cool! Some of the over 200 trailers on the site with interesting and fun wireters’ and directors’ commentary are Taxi Driver, Hollywood Blvd, The Blob, Rosemary’s Baby and Day of the Dead!
So if you are bored and want something different to do, then check out Trailers From Hell that updates all the time! I know that is how I am wasting my time!
Empire Movie News got their hands on the first three teaser posters from Inglourious Basterds. Even though the subject matter is so ugly, I think the posters are beautiful, blood all!!! The cloudy darkened skies with the bloodied shiny weapons creates such powerful images. If those teaser posters are any hint how this movie is going to be, I think we are all going to walk out in awe in the powerfullness of it all.
Quentin Tarantino's WWII epic starring Brad Pitt and Eli Roth is coming out on August 21st and you can tell how I am so excited about this movie!!!
Bostonite Eli Roth, who spent about 6 months in Berlin, Germany filming Quentin Tarantino's WWII epic Inglourious Basterds, told The Boston Globe that he actually taught the Germans there how to speak Bostonian.
The "Cabin Fever" director said he and castmate B.J. Novak, also a Newton native, had the German crew talking with a Boston accent by the end of the shoot. "It was deeply satisfying to hear German crew members yelling such . . . gems as 'Put in the Steamer'," wrote Roth, a reference to former Sox reliever Bob Stanley. "I tried to teach them 'Bourquie, hit a slapper from the blue line,' but that was a little too advanced."
OMG, how cute! I so want to hear them say "Pawk the caw neaw Hawvawd!" now!
I read somewhere that shortly before Eli left the country to play The Bear Jew, he flew home to perfect his native Boston accent. Sounds like the trip to Beantown worked…at least according to those Germans who are now walking around with the Boston accent. We will truly find out on August 21st when Inglourious Basterds comes to the big screen!
Finally after months of waiting Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds teaser is finally here!!! OMG I knew this movie was going to be f*cking amazing, but it seriously looks better than I ever could have imagined!!! Sincerely my neck is hurting after finally getting to see The Bear Jew swing his bat!!! I can’t wait to see him do that over and over and over again so that he can give Brad Pitt his 100 scalps!
Talking about The Bear Jew, Eli Roth just posted this and the bloody awesome trailer on MySpace.
Welcome back Eli!!! Go set some rest! You and the rest of The Basterds are so going to need it because you guys are going to be so busy with all the promotion you are going to have to do for this WWII epic that has Awards’ show darling written all over it!!!
Is it August 21st yet? I don’t want to wait 6 months to see it. Dang those Cannes people for getting to see it first!!!
