In todays newspaper (Columbus Dispatch) there is a 3/4-page Simpsons ad that includes the movie listing ads from all of the local theatres. In the ad, the SIMPSONS showtimes at all theatres playing the film are in pink, the same color as the doughnut in the ad.

I've never seen anything like this before. Rather clever!

our theatre...the marcus hollywood ultrascreen 14plex in appleton wisco had a midnight show of the simpson's movie. we had the exact donuts advertised on the one-sheet for free for the first 150 customers. we also did simpson's movie trivia for prizes. it was recieved pretty well
