639: Tangible Things
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, 9/11 Controversy, and Movie PR
The hosts critique a "fabricated" controversy surrounding a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie poster that featured an exploding skyscraper and a September 11th release date in Australia. They argue Paramount Pictures created the story for free publicity. They also mention a Philip Seymour Hoffman movie trailer that uses a reference to heroin to grab attention.
