Battlestar Galactica Meets The Simpsons
In honor of Saturday’s premiere of The Simpsons Movie, here are some of the classic Battlestar Galactica-Meets-The Simpsons drawings by cartoonist and graphic artist Dylan Meconis.
Folks in the scifi marketing biz could get some pointers from the amazing marketing campaign behind this movie, which has gotten a gargantuan amount of press. Among the crazy ideas was Mr. Burns’ hostile takeover of the CEO blog on the Jet Blue website. Genius!
Most of the press, though, has come from taking product tie-ins to a whole new level. Do you think Starbuck might be hiding some Duff’n D’Oh Nuts Ice Cream from Ben & Jerry’s in her stein?
More “Battlesimpsons” after the jump, including the picture of the Tighs which may be my favorite. Perhaps their picture is one of the best because they could probably transfer seamlessly into the Simpsons universe. Since their codependent and destructive relationship seems like the type of thing one might find in a dark Simpsons episode.
