In Rant About 3D Movies, Stan Lee Says What We're All Thinking About Inbound Marketing

In a rant about 3D movies, the creator of Spider-Man hits on something we're all thinking when it comes to "inbound marketing".

I said it earlier today, but “inbound marketing” is bullshit. It’s a dumb term being used to repackage stuff you already know in an effort to sell you things you don’t need. Ditto with “content marketing”, and before it, “social media”.

You know what’s a lot like the shenanigans going on with “inbound marketing”? 3D movies. They’re nothing new. You know when the first 3D movie was shown? 1922. 1922! So 3D is just an old technology that’s being trotted out like this new, amazing thing, when the results have been pretty terrible.
