Codependent Poster posted:Man, movie trailers used to be so weird. Actually, before that. He made his (uncredited) debut in Death Wish as a mugger. He was 20 years old at the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-pu31S4EEY He's the guy with off to the right, in the black leather jacket and carrying a crowbar.

I like how the "Carbon Copy" trailer features the flick-the-smoke-out-the-window-but-it-hits-the-window-and-lands-in-your-crotch-and-you-drive-poorly-and-hit-something gag so memorably featured in "The Big Lebowski". Now maybe that gag has been done a million times. But I still wonder if the Coens swiped it from this movie as revenge. Maybe they paid to see it when it came out, one boring afternoon, and regretted the experience.

falz posted:Apparently my father in law uses the term "black don't crack". I'd never heard it before a few years ago but I guess it's a [racist] thing. It's not a racist thing, it's just a reference to the fact that darker skin tends to show less wrinkling and other obvious signs of sun damage as people get older.

This is the first thing I thought of when I saw that poster: http://youtu.be/l6VWUpyfywc Depsite the video pulling from sitcom openings, I can't believe it wasn't based off this movie.

God, they even have vaguely similar names. Anyway, Carbon Copy looks like the....oh god I don't even know. But at least Denzel had a chance to play the bigoted one later, when he was in Philadelphia.

Choi Min-Sik Click for bigger:  This one confuses me. It says it's all hand drawn using a tablet, but some of them look like stills from the movies with filters or something.

Exactly what it looks like now that you've mentioned it. Also, it's quite busy. I do like that the background looks like it's the wall paper from the hotel room in Oldboy, though.

Yes! Got a Creature poster today. Don't know if these particular posters were even more limited than usual, but they literally sold out in about 5 seconds. I was refreshing the page exactly when they started to come up for sale, and I tried to get Frankenstein as well as Creature, and Frankie was sold out before I could even complete the sale.

Lizard Combatant posted:Congrats, you beat me. Such a rad poster. It was shear dumb luck on my part as well. I had my alarm set for 8:30am, so I'd have plenty of time to be up for the sale, since Mondo always seems to start the sale just after 9am. Luckily I woke up at 7am though, because todays sale started at about 8:20am. I would've had to punch myself in the balls if I missed it by 10 minutes just because my alarm was set late.

Y'know, Paramount has had a rough year. What with the distribution rights for Marvel Studios going to Disney, Dreamworks' distribution going with 20th Century Fox, and their biggest picture of 2013 is a massively troubled, delayed production that's gone wildly overbudget. So, how do you grab people's attention to a movie that could make or break your fiscal year?  There isn't an  emoticon big enough for this.

What's left to do with zombies at this point? What's to offer that Walking Dead currently doesn't cover or hasn't been covered with other zombie movies? Blowing them up with tanks?

Unfortunately it has been proven time and time again that keeping information from the public on a film with no equity translates into them not caring about it and the box office suffers. Brad Pitt has a lot of equity but as mentioned Paramount is hurting right now and this might come off as a trick and it is a big gamble. It's like the trailer that shows you beautiful and magical things but doesn't give you a story. Sure filmmakers like it but what you end up with is Tree of Life grossing $13m domestically. Which is why you see this  Get replaced with this  when it isn't tracking well. I've never seen this film. Most of America hasn't either. It looks confusing and kind of hard to wrap your brain around exactly what the story is. Unfortunately I feel like the same thing is happening with Cloud Atlas.

It's Terrence Malick, so I assume it's just a lot of people staring off into the middle distance while you can hear their inner monologue.
