I don't know why it took that specific poster, but it really points out how goofy the 2 is in the title. Definitely should have gone with a subtitle instead.

No way, a subtitle is always the lesser alternative.

In a surprise twist Liam Neeson gets taken instead.

I recall reading somewhere that this was a possible plot for the sequel but the trailer obviously dispels that.

That is both disgusting and freaking amazing.

I'm not looking forward to The Dark Knight Rises at all (I'm putting most of the blame on Bane's costume somehow managing to look stupider than his luchador getup), but this actually makes me want to see that movie.

It's the Dutch poster, but I had to look it up myself.

Apparently, "bioscoop" is Dutch for "movie theater". The word comes from the Greek words for "life" ("bios") and "to observe" ("skopos"). I guess it's where you go to observe life.

Someone needs to make a film called Bioscoop, and it'll be about Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin running a Dutch movie theatre.

In South Africa it's referred to as a Bioscope. My dad still calls it that sometimes only to get very confused looks by people who have no idea what that is (I doubt anyone in South Africa still refers to it as such except for the older generation).

It's "bioskop" in Indonesia, being a former Dutch colony and all.

Television is the retina
of the mind's eye.

I was at a theater in Burbank and I overheard one employee explaining to the other that someone had to pay the theater to put that poster up, unlike all the other ones. Craptastic vanity project I guess?

I know a few of us were going crazy with hating on the Dark Knight Rises posters and banners, but they could always be worse, like with this poster for Black Mmail. No, that's not a typo. The extra M is probably for manliness or something.
