Imagination Perfection -- in a Hollowed-Out Head...


The most recent edition of the Simpsons makes it's way to DVD in a new "Homer-Head Package..."


For a couple of months now, many a message board has been alive with activity, claiming everything from "how novel" to "but it won't match the rest of my collection... (sigh)."

Not to be outdone, nor to not accomodate the angry hoardes, Fox added in a square card that is detailed below...
Inside the box-head is a little card:

It states:"For all those who fear change...For all those anal-retentive nerds who like their DVD boxes to line up perfectly on the shelf...For all those who dislike storing their digital media inside a hollowed-out human head, have we got a deal for you!Just call:1-800-223-2369for a very derivative, old-style, just like-new before box with almost nothing new or creative to annoy or terrify you. Enjoy!"

The phone number leads to a short joke message, which leads to a phone operator that gives you a website address to order and pay for your box, and SHIPPING FEES.nice.
The web address is simpsonsdvdbox.com

Kudos to fox for appealing to the whining, and for coming up with something new.

I'll jot a blog review over here later on this week.
