"The Event"

Postby Elision » Aug 29th, '10, 13:34

Okay, I'm ready for a lawsuit or some shit.

I'm sick of watching Burn Notice (one of my favorite shows) and at the bottom of my TV, the large, capital backwards E comes up... My heart skips a beat every time... But it's just an add for this fucking stupid new show called "The Event".

...Most of America knows what the fuck the backwards E means. Hell, here's 2 screenshots I took from simply searching for "backwards E" in the Google search engine:

Now look at this bullshit (fastforward to 4:05)

Note the backawrds E. But those who have seen the on-screen ad's for it can agree with me when I say that they're really pushing the backwards E. It's the first thing that pops up, followed by "THE EV<already backwards E here>NT" joining it about 5 seconds later.

I've had it with this show and I haven't even seen it. I hope it fails miserably... I really do.

This is the saddest thing I've ever read in my life.

Eminem doesn't fucking own the backward E for christ sake. You hope the show fails becuase it used something Eminem uses? Wow.

Seriously, this is one of the most pathetic threads I've read.

No, not saying it's owned by him or anything.

But, they know what they're doing. They're using the same font and everything. They know that you're thinking about a juggernaut in the music industry every time that big E comes up on your screen.

I dunno... It just gets to me.

I highly doubt they use the backwards E in the logo to draw in casual Eminem fans.....smh

They must have thought it looked cool and decided to run with it...it does have a funny resemblance though.
