Here are some tweets on the film In fear...
  1. If anyones considering going to see In Fear at the cinema, you might as well burn a £10 note infront of your own face.
If you don't want to waste your money, don't go to see In Fear at the cinema


Just seen in fear in the cinema was like watchin that night in camo all over again 🙈



As you can see, the tweets towards the film tend to be more negative than positive, most people on social websites disliked the film and rated it very poorly.




The film being advertised on a social website (Twitter)...

  1. In Fear: New British, and heavily improvised, horror hits our cinema screens this week



IN FEAR is a low budget movie, with very little promotion and advertisement, there are no synergy or cross media convergance and the film is yet to win a single award.

Some of the ways Thor 2 is being promoted is through trailers, merchandise such as action figures and posters. Although I didn't buy any Thor merchandise, I saw posters of the movie on the tube and on buses, I also watched the trailer of the movie on my phone and later on television.

Other ways the film has gained plenty of hype is by social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc flooding with statuses and posts making people aware of what is dubbed to be "One of the best movies of 2013" by many.

The target audience of the movie is mainly at people with an interest in comics/action. Although the movie is mainly aimed towards teens and kids, I believe adults are not far off with interest in the movie because of its action and gripping storyline.

Storyline of the movie:
Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.



Thor:The Dark World
This is the cover of the official Thor game, it will be available on multiple platforms such as PC, Playstation, XBOX, Nintendo, Wii etc to reach a variety of people.
The game is one example of the many synergy partnerships between Marvel and Lego, they do this to promote eachother using another established and widely known brand to broadcast their own. Also, the partnership with Lego easily makes the game more child friendly because of the animation and colour used.
