I didn't say it wasn't promotion, it is. I said I didn't consider it much of a promotion, as in very little. If that's the best they did in promoting Tennant, then I, personally, consider that a failure. Again, just my opinion.
Wow. Guys, all I said was it "might have helped." I didn't say that it would make it the highest grossing movie of the summer or even number 1 for the week, or create the cure for cancer, but simply it might have sold a few more tickets. Certainly, not everyone knows him but the guy does have a fanbase here. I've read a few comments on other threads here complaining that if you blink, you don't see him in the trailer.
I can't believe my small comment elicited such responses. It was just a thought on what may have helped the flick do a little better since people were discussing how poorly "Fright Night" did.

And it sounds like all we're saying is we disagree and don't think it would have helped at all. I don't see the big deal.
