Hey there internet people!

Do you have any suggestions for internet marketing? What sort of things do you see online that make you excited for a movie? What would you like to see? What turns you off? If you belong to a fan community, what gets them going?

Inquiring minds would like to know! Your input could lead to a significant reduction in eye-rolling and shuddering in the near future.

I agree with mgafm; I go NUTS when I see concept art! I can think of at least 3 movies I didn't care at all about until I found some concept art online that completely changed my mind.

Also, Phonixa mentioned Coraline, which I TOTALLY agree with. That site also has this little treasure hunting game where you click around the site to find keys, and even though it's a little elementary I didn't care and played around with it a little.

Also, free clips on iTunes. If it sounds even vaguely interesting, I will download anything that's free on iTunes. I really liked the one about the making of Hellboy II; it wasn't that spoilerish, and we got to see the costumes and sets (which were obviously cool since it was Guillermo del Toro, but I think I'd be happy to see any costumes and sets for anything since I find it so interesting.) Watchmen has also had some cool internet stuff up like the contest on Youtube to make a Veidt commercial (I watched all of the winners and had a lot of fun with that) and a production diaries that showed the level of detail going into the movie.

WHEW. Sorry for the novel!
