    Bit over the top Max, but whatever...

    Seriously imagine being a creative team who said I know what, why don't we make a film about kings cross to promote Eurostar. The idea was liked and the client actually paid for a great director to make it. I mean seriously thats pretty cool from where i'm sat.

    I mean it's not like it's a completely new idea, Channel 4 paid for films to peddle a film channel, Canel + do the same. I'm sure Marvel comics didnt need to much persuading to make all these superhero films. Brand behind films isn't that unique an idea.

    • The Channel4/Canal analogy doesn't work. Its the vehicle promoting the product, not the product promoting the vehicle.Koopsy
    • its completely cynical, underhanded and undermines what should be an artistic venture, while you are talking about 'great directors'.max_prophet
    • about great directors. I know it's not new, doesn't mean it's good.max_prophet
