I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty excited for the release of the movie “Bourne Ultimatum.” It’s top on my list of “must-see” movies for this Summer, and if you’re as excited as I am, you’ll probably be interested in “The Ultimate Search for Bourne with Google.” Universal Studios and Google have teamed up to promote the movie and prizes are involved!
If you go to www.google.com/bourne you’ll be forwarded to www.searchforbourne.com where you’ll be invited to join the search.
The search starts on Monday and as Google Blogoscoped pointed out, Google has previously done something like this to promote The Da Vinci Code in which case Google Maps and an iGoogle Gadget were involved.
There is in fact a gadget that you can add to your iGoogle page, and you can find that here.
Prizes:
Among the prizes are an iPhone, a Volkswagen Touareg2, and trips to London, NYC, Paris, and Tangier.
Wish me luck… I think I’ll be in on this one!
Each to their own. That’s what I always say. It’s terrible, the state Hollywood is in though, making these movies out to be some kind of genius, smart action thriller. The Bourne series is nothing more than hyped up mega-fluff. All filler, nothing of substance whatsoever. And audiences today lap it up. The most ridiculous scenes, such as knife-fighting and fist-fighting that looks like some kind of new techno dance. That’s what it comes down to these days. Nothing about story, all about stylised slick delivery. Not to mention CGI in the majority of frames. Oh dear
I really like the Bourne series and it is among my favorite films. I guess everyone has different tastes though.
