You’re telling me Peter Parker is ...... Spider-man!?

I can see how that would be a Ned Beatty moment for some people but it's in the context of a love scene. She's not forced at gunpoint to give Vince Gallo a blowjob. I never really thought of that as demeaning and the prudish fake shock reaction is just ridiculous and silly. People have filmed non-simulated sex before.

She was also dating him at the time

I like this poster for Four Lions, mainly for the large amount of times 'funny' is quoted. Also the colours aren't too harsh on the eyes.

Here I go being extremely picky again, I mean that's an okay poster and all, but the composition is throwing me off and nothing looks like it's centered. It all looks like it's veering towards the right because of that giant bird and the "FUNNY" quotes aren't centered in the same spot as the rest of the poster. Big rule: Even if everything else in your poster is perfectly centered a la snapping in Photoshop, it's gonna look 'off' if you have one giant black foreground object that takes up a huge amount of right-side space and things need to be spread out or else it's going to look lopsided.

This might seem like a simple and academic question, but what's wrong with that? Why would being symmetrical be a requisite for the design? Is it a "balance" thing?

I completely disagree with you, Suzuki. I think it's a great poster. I also think that you're trying to pass of your "Big rule" as legitimate design truth instead of your own spergy opinion.

Here, I whipped something up real quick trying to illustrate what I'm saying, if it makes any sense...



The crow itself is perfectly aligned, the quotes at the top did end up being aligned with the title/body even though I suspected it didn't, but a lot of the dark, foreground weight is in the right side with not much darkness along the top or the left side to balance it. Where the red lines are is where I kind of see this the most. Overall it's not something to get up in arms over but it really does immediately draw my eye towards the bottom right and I miss all of the information along the top if it does that, which takes away from the quotes being pretty clever. It's not so much apparent in full view and more apparent when the picture is opened in a new browser window with nothing else around it. v:shobon:v

Not everything has to be completely symmetrical. But the weight of this poster being completely on the right threw my eyes, and if I didn't scroll down posts to see the stuff at the top first I probably would have seen it last.

VV No problem! Apologies in advance if this makes zero sense to anyone but me. VV

As for the first one, I have no idea why they decided to spell it "klown", except perhaps because it resembles the english word closer. The movie is called "Klovn the movie" in Danish, literally "Clown the movie". It's based on a TV-show, which again was inspired by Curb your Enthusiasm.
As for the second poster, the actor on the right is actually body painted and buck naked.
You want to see something :nws:? They did make another poster for Klovn the Movie: :nws:http://i.imgur.com/faPQe.jpg:nws:

Not to really add anything else to this poster, but I am now incredibly interested to see what role Jonathan Lipnicki is playing in this movie. I forgot he existed.

For all the creative rights Steven Soderbergh gets for his feature films (even internationally) he doesn't seem to have any hand in marketing.

The thing that bothers me about this poster is that the best looking guy in the movie (Matt Bomer) is the one with his face obscured. Were they worried that he is too handsome?

I think I had heard it, but it took putting the two side-by-side to finally see it.

Is there a reason in the movie for it*? I haven't seen it in awhile.

VVV *Yeah, for Dali. Seems like a reasonable conclusion.

Those moths are a significant plot point, but I don't remember any Dali stuff in it. I think it may have just been put there as an Easter Egg by the person who designed the poster.



Edited in content:

If you're living in the US, go to the midnight IMAX screenings of Prometheus and get this limited edition poster.



Probably a first in first served basis, so make sure you get in early, you lucky bastards.



Also, new poster for Looper. It's a teaser poster for the UK.

I'm pretty sure the "women making the skull" on the moth is supposed to represent both Buffalo Bill's victims and his motive. The women make up the skull much like Buffalo Bill's skin suit, which he's is making for sexual reasons.

Wow, I really enjoy both of those posters! The blue and pale yellow colour scheme of the Looper one is great and I like the composition. Too bad I have no idea if I actually will enjoy Looper since I haven't heard of it until now, but this poster is doing it's job because now I have to see it in order to see if I can justify buying this. :v: And the Prometheus poster looks suitably retro, wish I lived in the US to snag one-- I think all the marketing for Prometheus was pretty good in general, good stuff.

Oh this is beyond cool. I never knew that Dali picture existed and now the Silence of the Lambs moth's pattern makes a totally different type of sense.

The Looper poster basically reads as a high budget Primer, and what do you know, Shane Carruth is linked to the film as some sort of advisor to the time travel effects. God knows what that means, but Looper's director is the guy who did Brick, which I enjoyed, when I could hear the dialogue.
So, I'm looking forward to Looper.
