Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters

Cartoon Network launched a guerrilla marketing campaign to promote this film in January 2007. Dozens of electronic devices with blinking lights were surreptitiously posted in various locations in major US cities. When lit, an image of a Mooninite extending its middle finger appeared. On January 31, 2007, the Boston Police received several reports of suspicious devices, including one near a subway station, on a bridge support beneath a major highway. Bomb squads and emergency personnel were deployed. The two men who installed the devices were arrested and charged with several counts of placing a hoax device to incite panic, a felony. Turner Broadcasting, Cartoon Network's parent company, and Interference, Inc., the marketing company that created the campaign, reached a settlement with city and state officials to resolve any civil or criminal claims. The companies agreed to pay $1 million to the Boston police department, and $1 million to Homeland Security. Jim Samples, head of Cartoon Network, resigned. The two men who planted the devices were sentenced to community service.

In the opening scene Meatwad is seen holding a guitar right-handed. Then the viewpoint shifts and he is seen holding it left-handed. Finally returning to right-handed when the view shifts again.

Just like the TV show, we quickly see a skull and crossbones and a voiceover (provided by Matt Maiellaro) yelling "Skull!"

The fake airing of the movie for April Fools' Day 2007 (in which almost all of the film is shown in picture-in-picture), is missing the scene before the production logos (most likely to save it for the theatrical release). The official airing retained this scene.
