'2012' Viral Marketing Becoming Too Feasible

March 12, 2009 Comments

No, I'm not buying the disaster film's websites that claim life on Earth is ending in the year 2012, but I would believe these videos of Woody Harrelson ranting about living on a super volcano were real if he didn't begin them by introducing himself as Charlie Frost. I think I'll follow along with the series just in case it devolves to Woody shouting about the worth of hemp products. Then we'll know he's just lost it.
