Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 44150	Posted - 2013.09.13 13:40:00 - [1] - Quote ...............and you children will never learn to sit still for 90 minutes. Ever. Disney Invites Kids to Bring iPads to Theaters for GÇÿThe Little MermaidGÇÖ Re-Release "According to the appGÇÖs trailer, participants will be able to play games, compete with fellow audience members and sing along with the movie." Thanks Disney. Now us adults will truly stay home.
Khergit Deserters Crom's Angels 1614	Posted - 2013.09.13 14:01:00 - [2] - Quote Wonderful. A new achievement for our culture. Eliminate any patience that might be needed to sit through a 90 minute movie. A hyperactive animated one at that. I'm glad my kids are too old for Disney, that theatre experience sounds like pure hell.
Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 44152	Posted - 2013.09.13 14:02:00 - [3] - Quote It's just so unbelievably stupid I'm a bit in shock to be honest. This is 'the last straw' for.....something, I'm not sure what. ed: apparently they are getting quite the mouse-ear-ful. I'll post what I find out.

Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 44162	Posted - 2013.09.13 14:28:00 - [6] - Quote The filmGÇÖs Sept. 20 theatrical re-release is part of a new Disney initiative called Second Screen Live Yes. "Let's train children to compete" with other audience members to be the biggest distraction during a movie.
Mizhir Red Federation RvB - RED Federation 34234	Posted - 2013.09.13 14:34:00 - [7] - Quote Suddenly, The Oatmeal's suggestion seems to be more tempting We will never forget you Saede! I bet you dont see things like this so often in EVE

BLACK-STAR 492	Posted - 2013.09.13 16:06:00 - [10] - Quote What's wrong with singing along, guys!? The kids will be happy kicking seats, yelling, throwing things, and they'll want to do it all over again! until that ipad slides between the seats, drops and shatters. Fun adventure time turns to whining. [img]http://www.imgbox.de/users/S7AR/star.png[/img]

Khergit Deserters Crom's Angels 1616	Posted - 2013.09.13 16:54:00 - [11] - Quote Mean popular kid: "We're going to the movie on Saturday. But Ashley doesn't have an iPad so she can't come."
Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 44168	Posted - 2013.09.13 16:58:00 - [12] - Quote I'm just waiting for the real writers to start posting analyses of this. Maybe by this evening or something.
Snagletooth Johnson Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 11	Posted - 2013.09.13 20:40:00 - [13] - Quote About to? Dear boy, where have you been for the last 20 years?

Not following you. What other company has promoted such a thing theatrically before ? ed: ......and things like William Castle hiding electrodes in theater seats for "The Tingler" back in the 50s do not count.
Micheal Dietrich Kings Gambit Black 2157	Posted - 2013.09.13 21:09:00 - [15] - Quote ** like this would make me want to bring an assault rifle to the theater. Too soon? Out of Pod is getting In the Pod - Join in game channel IG OOPE**

Krixtal Icefluxor INLAND EMPIRE Galactic 44203	Posted - 2013.09.13 21:32:00 - [17] - Quote "Imagine a theater full of children, with everyone looking down at a bright screen instead of watching the movie," writes PAR editor Ben Kuchera. "Let's hope that the app is silent or you'll be dealing with hundreds of speakers all playing music with different timing, or at different volumes. Hellish." Disney first tested the use of the app in theaters last fall with Tim Burton's GÇ£The Nightmare Before Christmas.GÇ¥ The company says the trials resulted in "positive" responses among viewers, though you certainly wouldnGÇÖt think that based on the 5-1 ratio of GÇ£thumbs-downsGÇ¥ to GÇ£thumbs-upsGÇ¥ on the trailerGÇÖs Youtube page. From Comments: "I'm not sure what Disney is trying to accomplish here. Are they admitting the movie can't hold the attention of a young child and needs an accompanying video game in order to do so? I think that's demonstrably untrue though, Disney movies have always been good at making young kids want to watch them over and over again." http://penny-arcade.com/report/article/disneys-new-play-to-make-movie-theaters-intolerable-begins-with-little-merm I find it interesting that a few are calling this a desperate attempt by struggling theater owners. I call it a desperate attempt by an INDUSTRY that got rightfully burned at the box office this past summer.
Graygor 1kB Realty 1kB Galactic 58468	Posted - 2013.09.14 01:25:00 - [18] - Quote Well thats one way to kill the cinema industry then. Adieu cinema, it was a good 120 year ride. o7 Want to know something great? Kids in Japan are actually well behaved at threatres, because they'll be given a damn good thrashing if they misbehave and be socially stigmatised. "I think you should buy a new Mayan calendar.

Ishtanchuk Fazmarai 1828	Posted - 2013.09.14 09:15:00 - [22] - Quote Apparently Disney is too stupid to manage properly the money they earn. Please, for the good of Disney, don't give them any more money! (The same applies to Electronic Arts, actually. Don't give them more money! Think of the executives, they've got families too and must try to explain them why did they do what they did!) The Greater Fool Bar is now open for business, 24/7. Come and have drinks and fun somewhere between RL and New Eden!

Even in San Fran I only ever encountered live food once at a restaurant. It was live shrimp sashimi. The restaurant was Chinese.

It is sad that there will always be a group of rabid fanboys who will pre-purchase anything at all giving EA huge sales numbers despite the eventually released product. This is why EA can legally declare Simcity a smashing success despite the fact hardly anybody actually plays it. On the other hand Disney has enough money to legally cover anything they say. Like one of my posted articles said, Disney declared the test of this new method, using "Nightmare Before Christmas" a huge success despite the 5 to 1 negative ratio for it in a poll. On top of being able to flood any market anywhere in the world with advertising....they are a difficult one to beat down, that's for sure.

Though trying to socialize kids through technology isn't going to work, that's pretty much reverse. I figured families go to theaters to enjoy the show without distractions, not disney church or shop for apps. [img]http://www.imgbox.de/users/S7AR/star.png[/img]

Now that you mention it, the whole Disney Princess thing is indeed a bit Cult-ish. The Church of Disney. Bring your 'sacred tablet'.
Ariel Dawn F9X 1124	Posted - 2013.09.14 14:54:00 - [27] - Quote You people sound like cranky old codgers complaining about that gosh-darned internet, kids on your lawn, and the good old days. I doubt kids having a more interactive experience with a movie will affect you in anyway unless you're a die-hard Little Mermaid fan that goes to every screening; what if it is more fun?

Yes, we pine for the days of screaming, singing children in movie theaters, JUST LIKE IN THE OLDEN DAYS. NOT ! ed: Don't even think things like the "Fast and Furious" sequels are not going to dive into this as well. It's coming.

I showed this to the singapore office and they retorted that in Singapore if you or your child are unruly in a theatre there can be a penalty of upto $500, expulsion from the threatre and maybe even community service.
