Billboard: Day One
Day 1 of the billboard run has come to a close. Eight hours of freaking big and right out there.
(Click to start a slideshow of our pictures. A million thanks as always to Schmacky.)
For more pictures of the billboard on the go, taken by ModernOne (aka Will), go here.
The billboard also caught the attention of SciFiWire, who wrote a short, lovely little piece on it.
Fans of Fox’s canceled Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles haven’t given up trying to get some kind of continuation going for their show. It looks like they’ve temporarily abandoned the idea of finding a network to give the series a third season and instead are now pushing for a DVD movie.
In one of the more innovative fan campaigns seen in recent years, they’ve got themselves a mobile “Bring Back The Sarah Connor Chronicles” billboard that they’re driving around Los Angeles to get some attention (which clearly worked, at least in our case). Presumably they make sure it frequently circles the Warner Brothers Studio lot, since WB produced the show.
The truck is part of the well-orchestrated and nicely named “Freaking Big Push” the fans are staging in September and October, which coincides with the release of TSCC season two on DVD on Tuesday. If they can actually help, ahem, drive sales of the show on DVD, our guess is the studio might actually give them their DVD movie.
The ScifiBlock also wrote up a nice little article about it. And, T:SCC’s very own Hadley Klein did a little blog post about the billboard.

This is awesome! You guys rock!
However, some people do not seem to get the message: They are interpreting the “experience the awesome on dvd and blue-ray” as a call for a direct-to-dvd movie…

Badass!
how much cash do we need to tip the driver to crash through the WB parking lot gates????

I work at the WGA, and it is parked across the street from my office right now! I guess the driver is having lunch at the Farmers Market?

Taken by a fan? How about taken by Will? I guess taken by a fan works… Or Taken by Modern, hmm.. Gosh I love seeing my photo get re-used!

@Will,
We just linked to them, we didn’t hotlink them, we didn’t post them here. “Ihatemetal” doesn’t exactly tell us that your name is Will or Modern or whatever. If you want the link taken down, then say so.
