Big in Japan

Image
Recently, SM Megamall began promoting the upcoming blockbuster "The Sinking of Japan." They bet on this baby so big, that they plastered the posters in between escalator rides. (sorry i can't find an english version, so this will have to do:) Anyways, the marketing guys (whether SM's or the film distributor) wasn't exactly content with the title "The Sinking of Japan." So, some wise guy decided to put a sticker on the top right portion of each poster proudly proclaiming that this movie is the "The Number One movie in Japan!" So, if you're like me who likes wandering aimlessly at malls, and upon riding the escalator you chance upon this row of posters, what would you think? THE SINKING OF JAPAN THE NUMBER ONE MOVIE IN JAPAN Can't help but imagine a whole theater slowly sinking into the abyss while the Japanese continue watching and applauding. Some marketing guys should be fired and put out of their misery.
