We spotted this ad for the movie District 9 on our way out of the subway station this morning. It’s nice to see QR codes being used, but we wonder how safe and effective it is to have people stop and snap QR codes in high traffic areas at the top of stairs. And how many people actually have QR readers on their mobiles?

A touch better than having the QR codes IN the subway

But this cannot be helpful for my New Yorkian pedestrian rage.

This is really cool! I don’t think it’s exactly dangerous. Not the best choice of words perhaps.

I saw this Qr-Code actually. This creative application is great.

This creative application is pretty great to me.

The code was created with the BeeTagg Services (http://generator.beetagg.com). Create your own.

Great advertising for a suck movie. I saw a test viewing. The shit was horrible. It looked cool.. but plot wise and character wise.. it’s pretty lame. Maybe if your 10 it will be good…
