They Won't Stay Dead: Ancient Movie Promo Sites

For some reason, it?s been a rule on the Web for ages that studios leave official movie sites up way past their expiration dates. Some are WAY, WAY past. I?ve never been able to figure out why, but I?m glad these time capsules still exist to let us know how far the aesthetics of the Web have come in a very short time (Dig that ?frameset? in the URL!). I actually like the Lost World site. It?s a pretty neat conceit for a film done that long ago.

Battlefield Earth ? http://battlefieldearth.warnerbros.com/00_site.html
You?ve Got Mail ? http://youvegotmail.warnerbros.com/cmp/0frameset.html
Wild Wild West ? http://wildwildwest.warnerbros.com/cmp/frameset.html
Lost World ? http://www.lost-world.com/ingen/index.html
Space jam ? http://www2.warnerbros.com/spacejam/movie/jam.htm
Major League ? http://majorleague3.warnerbros.com

Do you know of other movie sites that refuse to die?

I'm a big nerd that who has an unhealthy love of bad movies, games and bad beer. In the midwestiest place on earth. This entry was posted in Internet, Movies and tagged Friends of the Retroist, Space Jam. Bookmark the permalink.
