The sheer incongruity of this poster is amazing (and hilarious).

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

Time to get Don Johnson to reprise his role on Miami Vice and get a remake of Jurassic Park going.

This one is especially annoying because Jurassic Park is one of the big hits from the wave of early '90s films that ended the neon '80s look.

It does appear to be humorously aware of it though. They added gaudy 80s earrings, pink glasses, hot pink lipstick and nail polish to the generally tom boyish Laura Dern character.

I mean, it still sucks and all, but I'm pretty sure it's aware that it's not a neon 80s movie. It's saying, "What if it was?"

These fan poster people should start doing posters for imaginary films, that way they won't suffer from their usual number one problem of being terrible representations of the films in question.

I dunno man, having now seen a few hundred of these loving "fan posters" I'm disinclined to give them any benefit of the doubt at all.

Yes, Drive, in which Ron Perlman is third billed. Not seventh. There wasn't anyone else relatively known in that movie, right? Just Gosling, Mulligan, and Hellboy.

But if it were an 80's movie, where in the nine neon hells are the dinosaurs on the poster?

On that note:







I like how the first two are like, "Hey kids! Dinosaurs!" And then only the last one is, "Oh, and you're also going to have to deal with all this violent, scary stuff along with the dinosaurs."

Because it made gently caress loads of
money. This is why Dredd will not get a sequel.

Suitability of the subject matter has absolutely nothing to do with it.

That looks like it could have been for home video release or DVD release. But yeah, it looks pretty recent and similar, no doubt to capitalize on Jurassic Park.

Honestly, it looks more like a DVD cover, which would make that image after JP. It's that old "make this similar movie look like a recent more popular movie" that you see all the time in video stores and Redbox.
