Okay...ok...now we all know the answer to Clara Peller's question from those commercials back in the day ("Where's the beef?") It's right where it should be I guess...right with Marvel's Avengers! ROTFLMAO!

Seriously, all I can say is God bless Marvel and Europe if they're marketing ground beef patties via The Avengers...as long as folks can afford to eat! LOL!!

"THEY ARE USING GROUND BEEF TO PROMOTE THE MOVIE!"

NO ,
THEY ARE USING THE MOVIE ,TO PROMOTE GROUND BEEF!
THERE IS A MASSIVE KIDS MARKET OUT THERE AND PARENTS WILL PROBABLY BUY RELATED PRODUCTS FOR THEIR KIDS.

Walt Disney will exploit every market,so prepare to lose personal ownership of these characters

Cross-merchandising has really gotten ridiculous. It has no influence on me seeing anything- in fact, for movies I dislike or have zero interest in, I'll buy another brand so I don't have to look at it.
