For several years, my iPhone voicemail alert has been the "FOR THE MEMORYYYYYYY OF A LIFETIIIIIME, REKALL, REKALL, REKALLLLLL!" audio clip from the movie.

It's a good'un.

I'm not even sure that's the moon. It looks like he's on an asteroid that's about to collide with the Pacific Ocean.

Asteroid surfing would be awesome, don't deny it.

I also think humans never went to Mars in the new movie because they spend all their money building an elevator that goes through the Earth.

Well, at least they put effort into this one. The rest of them look like stock photos.

Well, that would true to life for certain ads.

They don't. In the original story by PKD, a trip to Mars never happened, either, so this is actually closer to the source material than the Arnold movie, which will forever hold a special place in my heart.

It kind of makes sense doesn't it? Obviously Rekall cares as little about having nice posters as most movie studios. :v:

Sorry about the quality of the crow pic, I only have paint here.

Aweseomcrow aside, it's not only creepy because of the whites of the eyes, but the idea a bird could turn its eyes to you (instead of turning its whole head comically because birds can't really do the former) feels immensely creepy.

Have $250 to $350 to spare for a poster?

http://www.movies.com/movie-news/mondo-struzan-the-thing/8439

quote:

Drew Struzan's THE THING poster will be available this Friday at the Summer of 1982 screening in Austin.

Not only is Mondo releasing a new poster for The Thing, but they're reaching all the back to 1982 to do so. They're releasing a limited edition, screen print of Drew Struzan's original artwork for the poster. No titles, no taglines, no names; just Struzan's glorious painting.

Every print will be personally signed by Struzan, and they'll be on sale at Friday's Movies.com-presented screening of The Thing (hope you got tickets!), with the remainder of the run going on sale online at a later date.



$250 for that or $350 for glow in the dark.

Is there a word for artsy slice of life ensemble posters that let you know immediately just how depressing a movie is going to be? You know with all of the headshots of actors looking pensive or wistful or contemplative. Take for example Fireflies in the Garden:




But then there's this one which is actually kind of cool:


Oh and don't watch this movie if you haven't. Sure enough it was a depressing slice of life ensemble movie made even worse by the fact that something like 45 minutes was cut and nothing makes and sense and there's no resolution.

I'm guessing he wanted a line that fit the aesthetic he designs towards, not one that would summarise the film itself.

Growing up in a German-speaking country it always amused me how they had change titles because the german equivalent would sound silly or make no sense.

"Glühwürmchen im Garten" sounds like a cute children's flick. :3:

Teaser for Taken 2 is out



It's a simple design and gets straight to the point. It's Liam Neeson beats the poo poo out of Europe, Part 2. Simple and effective.



And here's the first poster I've seen for Spike Lee's latest, Red Hook Summer.



I haven't the slightest clue of what the movie's about, but it catches the eye and it certainly makes me interested in it. It's just a shame that the majority of his movies recently have been pretty lovely.

I don't have a clue how that movie could have a sequel, yet at the same time I'm thrilled it does.

And speaking of movies that don't need sequels but should have; where's the Inside Man sequel you promised, Spike Lee? :argh:

I like the plot to this film. Remember that guy we hosed with earlier who came by and hosed us royally. Lets gently caress with him again. They should call this movie Taken: The Refucking. Also got to love a dad who calls his daughter twice to tell her she has is about to be kidnapped. I wonder if he does every once and a while for shits and giggles .

The unluckiest family since The McClane-Gennaros.

I was hoping Liam was kidnapped and the mom and daughter would have to find hidden reserves of inner strength and kickassiocity to rescue him. But this plot looks good too.
