Adbusting, Iraqi Insurgent Style

Author and game designer Allen Varney pinged me this evening with a wild story from Sky News: apparently some Iraqi insurgents are Photoshopping ads for Hollywood movies and turning them into creepy psyops about the slaughter of American soldiers, then peddling instructions on how to propagate them across the American webscape.

This includes predictable fare, like the Owen Wilson-Gene Hackman fighter pilot flick "Behind Enemy Lines"...



And Mel Gibson hero pics "The Patriot"...



...and "We Were Soldiers"...



As well as less intuitive choices, such as "Fast Food Nation"...



And "The Animal" (Rob Schneider=W?).



You heard it here first.
