To us that amount sounds like a lot of extra goodies in our lives but to them it's just a drop in a bucket. I know they've already made a ton of money advertising for this movie and they already have merchandise out for kids in the toys and games dept. so I'm not even going to speculate how much it will make in the end.

Actually just barely started seeing it today. I've seen the toys for ages, but its toys they would be stupid to not be banking on that as soon as possible.

However today was the first time I saw Avengers on Dr Pepper, its the only thing I've seen it on though. Perhaps its because I like Dr Pepper and just noticed it there, but it wasn't on any of the soda around it.

i never understood why its mostly Dr. pepper they put these things on

dont get me wrong or anything but that pop tastes like well medicine ironically considering its name lol

people like drinking medicine these days? how about that pink goopy stuff :P

Soldierone4402d ago

I only drink Pepsi and Dr. Pepper lol, I don't drink any other soda. If im going to hurt my body Im going to enjoy it, or ill drink water lol

But to answer the initial post, I'm pretty sure its because Dr Pepper is its own small company. Since its licensed to both Pepsi and Coco-cola (depends on the area) then its an easy sell. Plus DP targets a younger crowd anyways.

I just noticed it said Red Baron Pizza, that sucks. We always buy Totinos or TombStone lol

This is cool for me, sounds like collectibles in my eyes :P

I just have a question, will this movie be another Paramount movie, or is it Disney now?
