| FatalW1shes User ID: 18009481 United States07/21/2012 04:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'd go on the angle that perhaps this was a false flag because the government hates white people and Guns. I mean this kid bought 5k worth of gear in 2 mos with no job. Yeah its easy for college kids to get credit but the fact that he shot for a period of time and didn't get captured until he was in the parking lot..... Something smells. That's for sure. We don't know a motive or anything but no way was this marketing. There is a danger of the movie being pulled out of the theater. I think you are off the beaten path.

The event at a movie theater on the French capital's famed Champs-Elysees Avenue was supposed to include director Christopher Nolan and stars like Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine. But on Friday afternoon, workers were pulling down the red carpet display. Some could be seen carrying away a large mask that had adorned the facade of the theater.

You dont read very well, I said I STARTED on the path of astrology and chose ASTRO THEOLOGY INSTEAD cause astrology was too much for me . Astro theology is different than chart astrology. Its like a foot doctor compared to a heart surgeon compared to a urologist. Youre a condescending control freak and honestly sir, read more carefully and get a life. Im a very successful man that has a country home and a vacation home and Im happy. If you read my post I said that OTHERS ARE SO GOOD they can see if they will have a bad day or not and exactly what will happen Yes, I can look for a trine , sextile transit in my chart and choose a good night to go. Thats astrology 101 and you can take it further into more detail but in my post I said I chose not to apprentice further. I prefer not to rule my life by that cause it gets exhausting. I dont agree with corporate Hollywood and this gives me a chance to refrain from supporting the film. |

I don't know how this will all shake out but one fact is obvious... innocent people are dead. If you don't think so, please have the courage of your convictions and go to Aurora and wear a HUGE sign saying the whole thing is fake. Don't be surprised when people try to beat you to death.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1331430 United States07/21/2012 06:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some theaters were sold out of tickets for the midnight and other screenings weeks in advance. WB doesn't need to create a marketing scheme as WOnk suggests. Fan boys and word of mouth helped advance ticket sales. As another reply said, if anything the shooting has made seeing the film less desirable to me personally. So, no. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1243271 United States07/21/2012 06:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | :tinfoilhat: Quoting: Wonkish I do not believe that the individual chose to murder those individual's because he was a low-life OWS supporter(not that I doubt that they are capable of such actions); instead, I believe that the shooting was part of a viral marketing campaign. While this may sound crazy, please take a couple of minutes to ponder this post. Do I believe that individuals died as a result of this individual's actions? Yes I do, but I think that the shooting was planned so that Warner Brothers could receive more press concerning the new Batman film. If Warner Brothers could some how create a sense of urgency in the general public that would cause them to see the film, then they could make more money from the film than they would have been able to had they not carried out 'the plan.' Warner Brothers was considering pulling the film from theaters, and what do you think the general populace would do in response to this news? They would flock to the theaters hoping that they could see the unedited version of the film---they want to see and attempt to understand what caused Holmes to go on a shooting spree. Now we see that Warner Brothers has changed course and will now allow moviegoers to see the film as it was originally produced: "The Dark Knight Rises" will play in theaters as scheduled, as Warner Bros. has decided not to cancel any screenings of the film after a shooting early Friday morning that claimed 12 lives and left 59 wounded. The massacre at the Aurora, Colo., Century 16 theater is among the largest mass shootings in U.S. history. [link to movies.msn.com] you are sick!!! |
