That Pepsi girl is annoying as hell and now that Regal owns the world, we have to suffer through her "cuteness" before every damn movie. So help me tell Regal that we're sick of the Pepsi girl! You also can call them at 1-877-TELL-REGAL.
They only give you 255 characters for your comments online, so here are some ideas about what you might wanna say (courtesy of my friends):
You've had that Pepsi spot before every movie for quite a while now. Can you please change it to something different, preferably without that little girl?
I hate that Pepsi girl. I always try to see movies at non-Regal theaters, just to avoid her. Please get rid of her!
Do you really think we find that Pepsi girl amusing? Please change your pre-feature presentation lead-in soon.
Please change the ads/message to viewers before the film. We all talk very loudly during these lead-ins to avoid hearing that tiresome Pepsi Girl. She's too irritating to be effective advertising.
I've had enough of the damn Pepsi girl in the Western saloon commercial. It was cute ONCE and ONLY ONCE! Knock it off or I'll see my movies elsewhere!
Yesterday I went to BookPeople to get my copy of The Future of Success signed by Robert Reich, a former Secretary of Labor under Clinton. I wasn't looking forward to driving downtown in the heart of rush-hour traffic, but I'm glad I went. (Speaking of Traffic, you must see it.)
When the Secretary was signing my copy, I said "I loved that endorsement you wrote of Bill Bradley." He hadn't really been paying much attention to everyone's comments, but when he heard "Bradley" his face lit up and he looked at me. "As a matter of fact, I talked to him today." Gasp. He talked to Bill Bradley today. So I said "I hope he's running in 2004." And the Secretary responded "Actually, that's what I was trying to urge him to do. But he says it was just very painful when he lost. I'm going to have a meeting with him in a week or so." To which I replied "Oh, you have to urge him to run again!"
So now I have this fantasy that when the Secretary meets with Bradley, he'll mention something about a young woman in Austin at his book signing who was asking about whether he'll run in 2004. And that'll be the clincher that makes Bradley decide he has to try again. (Not likely, I know, but I can dream!)
Presidents' Day is coming up on February 19. In honor of our current President, please make a donation (however small) to a pro-choice organization, like Planned Parenthood. Then send a card to Bush saying: "President Bush, a donation has been made in your name to Planned Parenthood." And please forward this to your friends, family, co-workers, etc.
Here are some pro-choice organizations you can donate to. If there's a local chapter, please donate to that chapter. Remember that your contributions are tax-deductible.
