    I'd love to know if Shaq has ever turned down a product endorsement.

      Right??

      The dude has been retired all these years and yet he's the #1 athlete endorsement target for companies. That's gotta say a lot - he's typically willing to do it and when he does, it makes a big difference.

    Of all the things for Shaquille O’Neal to endorse this honestly makes more sense than anything he’s done recently lol.

      I don't know, man... I believe that a 7-foot-something, 300+ pound former elite athlete needs some Icy Hot. Haha.

    Unless the ghosts in the new Ghostbusters movie are blue, I don't understand the marshmallows. Slimer was green!

      That certainly would have made more sense. I still can't figure it out, but I'm lacking a lot of context, having never seen Ghostbusters movies or tv shows before.

    When you do the capsule countdown, can you sell the reveal order a little more? When you place them in order, you're giving away the ranking, and it makes the countdown less dramatic. Ok I'm done nitpicking lol.

    • @ConsumerTimeCapsule
      @ConsumerTimeCapsule  3 года назад +1

      I used to do that every time, but I changed it up to keep things moving quicker. After experimenting with it, I think I'm on your side, though.

      @@ConsumerTimeCapsule This may sound strange, but I don’t really watch this channel so much because I’m interested in the products themselves, but rather the interaction, and reactions, you guys give to the silly and whacky items. Y’all have great chemistry and it’s good natural drama, lol.
      As an aside, I just ate a B-King Ch’King and it’s fabulous. Is there any chance on reviving some of the fast food reviews, now that things are opening up again?
      I still love your Einstein Bagel implosion review, oh and of course the Little Caesar’s pretzel pizza. Sadly I was unable to get my hands on a Cheeze-It Calzone before they went out of stock. But I love all your reviews of these things!

      ​@@farflethepollicle5722 What a great response. Thank you. I'm kinda having a channel existential crisis right now, so shoot me an email at consumertc@gmail.com - I'd like to pick your brain some more if you're cool with that.

    Since you were such a big fan of basketball, are you going to do any Space Jam 2 related capsule countdowns?

    • @ConsumerTimeCapsule
      @ConsumerTimeCapsule  3 года назад +1

      I'm sure a Space Jam product or two will find its way on a review, but I was already out of my basketball phase by the time the first Space Jam came out. I was more of a Larry Bird & Magic Johnson era guy, so once they retired, I lost a lot of interest. I watched the "All New Dazzling Dunks and Basketball Bloopers" vhs tape so many times that I wore it out back then. Bring that back and I'd be a lot more into it. Haha.

    Are the Ghostbusters products are very very strange right now as far as release strategy goes. Originally the new Ghostbusters film was going to be called Ghostbusters 2020, and it was supposed to be released last year. But it got delayed for obvious reasons. So then they changed the name to Ghostbusters afterlife. But they had hundreds of brand tie-ins for the movie. Because Ghostbusters is such a huge franchise. But all of those Brand tie ins had to be delayed as well. In the movie has delayed several times at this point. And now it's actually not coming out until November of 2021. Which is strange because it's after Halloween. So I don't really get the logic in that.

    • @ConsumerTimeCapsule
      @ConsumerTimeCapsule  3 года назад

      That's ridiculous. I hope that there's going to be mostly new stuff and not rehashed old stuff from Ghostbusters' past promos. This cereal was a fine start, but I know they can do better.

      @@ConsumerTimeCapsule I think a lot of it will be rehashed stuff, because nostalgia is trendy, and people like that. But there are some new Ghost characters in the latest Ghostbusters, and they are pretty cute. And cute obviously means they want to market the hell out of them, so I'm sure they will create a lot of new tie-ins to exploit the new adorable ghost characters.
