I imagine that they browse these forms and laugh at all of us grasping at straws. Like that time someone tried to analyze a license plate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLadyGator Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) I'm honestly worried that them "updating the site" slightly means they aren't going to announce anything this week. I mean, why update the site for a day or two when you know it's going to change to include the icon(s)? My bet is next week now. This is getting ridiculous though. They are so enjoying our torture. The only bright side is that I ordered my FFP+ with Express yesterday! Edited June 23, 2017 by TheLadyGator 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunnylvr Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Frankly, I'm annoyed. There is no reason we haven't gotten a little something more by now. It's not funny It's not suspenseful.. it's just annoying. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So chances are that we probably won't get that much needed announcement, so when can we speculate that they'll actually announce something? This time next week?

Drummanmatt Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Probably when they get round to lighting all the candles on the website, at which point they announce everything in one go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystiquephreeq Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Has anyone tried to see if there are any clickable features. And since I don't have an actual computer: Can someone post what the regular site looks like? I only have access to the mobile version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I clicked on The Shining link on the side, it asked me if I wanted to take a survey about the website/event so I did. On the "other comments" section I wrote about how this whole "no announcements" game is getting really old and needs to stop. Not that they'll actually listen and do something, but it's better than nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked through the code, and I didn't see any mentions of anything interesting. Although, I'm not much of an expert in that realm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wow Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 My guess is the next announcement is the Icon, and then after that Blumhouse or Saw, and then Evil Dead at comic con Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottEdmondson41 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Meh, I don't really mind because well back in my day (lol) it all got announced all at once in August, and we loved it. I would be fine with that even. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLadyGator Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 My fear is that they try to drop a large announcement 1 month out without any notice, like Beyonce's Lemonade album.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
criticalanalysis Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Their Marketing department sucks, period. Shout at me all you want but they're an absolute atrocious disaster. Far too much control over something they shouldn't even touch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They take an event with a rabid fanbase that they could run relatively cheap (or free) programs with, but instead decide to post "cryptic" responses or self indulgent pictures on Twitter. Social media is a very importantly tool right now, and they kind of just shrug it off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, with how big HHN has gotten, the event needs it's own marketing team. USO's marketing team doesn't seem to care about HHN very much. They should at least give the twitter back to Aiello. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeoriaBJJ Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Nice to see Critical Analysis getting some love around here! LOL Agreed with everyone above. An HHN marketing team would be a pretty sweet gig! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenoftheBunnies Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I might be late with this, but I was listening to a Scarezone podcast the other day on my drive and I remember them saying there was a really big hint on the tickets page. I can't see anything on the surface though. Anyone look at the coding on that page yet? 2 minutes ago, mz_ said: Universal will go back to releasing everything in August at 12 midnight! Get ready!

We've been far too spoiled with the announcements starting in March/April. If it goes to August you'll have people ripping their hair out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems weird that theyre starting their big marketing initiatives so close to the event. Im with CriticalAnalysis, Universal Marketing seems to have made a miscalculation with their strategy here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b-wolf95 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I think Marketing is dragging their feet with the icon reveal because that's the only think that hasn't been leaked yet. So to whoever leaked the event, shame on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
