Around the time that Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer was released, the ads on NBC.com were changed to say that "Las Vegas's best casino just got more 'fantastic.'" Subsequently, corinthianlasvegas.com was updated with Fantastic Four cards and slots, and a link to a preview video was added to the Deluxe Rooms page. Similar ads on primatechpaper.com were added to mention an employee screening, and a link to a preview video was added on the about page.
