WESTERVILLE, OH and BURBANK, CA--(Marketwired - May 21, 2013) - The Guitammer Company (
Mark Luden, President of Guitammer stated, "We couldn't be more thrilled to work closely with the teams at Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures on the Pacific Rim release. By partnering with them, we expect to be able to reach millions of movie fans, and to communicate the ButtKicker product experience "feel what you've been missing" .
This will be the fourth time ButtKicker has partnered with Warner Bros. first with "Sherlock Holmes," followed by "Clash of the Titans," "Sucker Punch," and now "Pacific Rim." By partnering with Warner Bros. Guitammer and their ButtKicker customers, have been able to reach more of the key 18 - 35 and the 25 - 54 demographics in a compelling and fun way.
Luden added, we are also very excited to announce that starting June 14 and running through July 31st, in addition to an integrated online marketing campaign, we'll be running the "SURFACE LIKE A KAIJU OR STRIKE LIKE A JAEGER" contest. Fans should visit www.thebuttkicker.com or www.facebook.com/thebuttkicker to enter to win.
The prize, valued at approx. $4,500 will enable two lucky winners to be:
Deployed to Los Angeles, on the Pacific Rim danger zone to take control of this global war. The battle is between the Kaiju and Jaeger, though now these roles will be played by the winners. As the Kaiju, they will undergo an incredible jet pack experience, and as the Jaeger's pilot they will be whisked up and away above the Pacific Ocean for an exhilarating flying lesson in a stunt plane.
Launching 30ft into the sky, your 'Kaiju' will emerge from the cavernous waters at speeds of up to 35mph, feeling the same sense of power and speed as that felt by the alien-creatures. They will loom high above the Pacific, just like a gigantic Kaiju though with the added benefit of being in constant contact with their instructor who will help them achieve the very best tricks mid-air. With the ocean stretching far below and the Californian sun shining above, this will be an extraordinary experience -- and a lesson in Kaiju combat that could end in victory!
Meanwhile, ready to defend planet Earth and wired up to an expert co-pilot via a headset, your 'Jaeger pilot' will climb into the cockpit of a stunt plane and get set to take to the skies for an adrenaline-filled stunt flight. They will see the vast Pacific Ocean from a Jaeger pilot's point of view and therefore keep an eye out for any Kaijus who might be emerging from the depths! With expert tuition from the co-pilot there will be the chance to pilot the plane and perform stomach-churning stunts. As they duck, dive, loop and roll, winners will be fully equipped to dodge any Kaiju's terrifying advances.
Slated for release July 12, 2013, the film is a presentation of Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures and will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company. When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes -- a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) -- who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
