How would you like to do that? Well, that is what the Simpson’s Movie did this past weekend. Granted, I am sure A LOT more than that was spent on creating the movie. But, the Simpson’s Movie had the 5th best movie opening this year.

As Li points out in her Search Marketing Gurus post today, the producers say their viral-marketing campaign was a major contributor to the movie’s success.
