Young Freud posted: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. I own this DVD (like a champ) and can personally attest that that this is true.

NYTimes has an annoyingly difficult to read (at least for me) but interesting look at what's going on with billing blocks on movie posters here. I particularly enjoyed the delicate uses of "and", "with", "as" and "introducing", but its all about as fastidiously specific as you'd expect.

Hell, "The Greatest Adventure Ever Born" sounds an awful lot like "A New Adventure is Born", a la the original "The Land Before Time". Really, the only dinosaur movie I can think of that has a truly unique tagline is...  Actually, there's two unique -and insane- taglines for the price of one. For brain bleach, here's the original "Land Before Time Poster":

When I saw "We're Back - A Dinosaur Story" my favorite movies were Jurassic Park and King Kong (1933) which we had on VHS with a little button in the case that made Kong roar when you press it. My dad tried to warn me it was a Disney movie or whatever, but I was like "No dad, dinosaurs eat people. Lets go see it." I loving hated that movie for the amount of people that don't get eaten.

It has a super cool and powerful end scene for the villain too, as said above. John Goodman is in it and yes, he's great. Kikka fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Mar 7, 2013 |

TheBigBudgetSequel posted:Finally found a minimalist poster that made my blood boil. That has to be a satire of minimalist posters. I will keep saying that to myself to stay sane. As far as the "We're Back" conversation, I watched it recently and it is bad, but it's bad in really bizarre ways. The whole movie is a flashback for no reason. The animation is so wonky that it's hard to tell if the characters are off-model or if they're ever on-model to start with. And there's a little kid who wants to run away and join a circus, because that's still a thing kids threaten to do in the 1990's, right? There's one thing about this movie I have to point out that made me have to pause and get a strong drink in order to survive it: If you are a dinosaur, according to this movie, you are either a big, vicious violent primeval monster (Bakker's beard, even the Parasaurolophus is bloodthirsty!) or a cuddly condescending giant toy that was kicked off the set of "Barney and Friends" for insulting the three-year-old audience's intelligence too much. It's like, "Hey, Paleo-Geeks! This is What Everyone Else Thinks of Dinosaurs!" the movie.  Also, if you give it some thought, the "good" Dr. Whatever-Eyes brother's plan is honestly almost as hosed up as the evil brother's. EvilTobaccoExec posted:I was like "No dad, dinosaurs eat people. Lets go see it." I loving hated that movie for the amount of people that don't get eaten. ^^ This reaction is fantastic given all the hand-wringing by concerned parents over the, I think, three people who get eaten in "Jurassic Park". This, incidentally, is why "We're Back" has that insane, "A Stephen Spielberg Dinosaur Movie for the Whole Family" tagline. Yeah, nobody gets eaten, but I guess a freak circus run by a madman who feeds the cute characters pills that make them insane is perfectly fine for the kiddies.

You know, the original intent was for The Land Before Time to be done without any dialogue. I think that would have been one of the best pieces of animation work ever had it come to pass. The only thing I remember about We're Back is that incredibly bad song that plays about 10 times in the movie. I think it's the only song they wrote. They must've blown all their money on the incredibly lifelike animation

I love dinosaur movies! Sadly "Baby" and "we're back" were neither the kind of dinosaur movie I like. I like badass motherfucking dinosaurs, like ol Gwangi! Click for Gwangi size!  Look at that G rating! Not to mention that mouthful of tagline!  Old school rear end-kicking Tyrannosaur! We're going RIGHT THERE!  So good it was remade!   Look at that giant mechanical cock with "thrust" written up the side! Wait, what?

I honestly think Desperado is quite subdued compared to everything he did after, starting with From Dusk Til Dawn. I wanna say Spy Kids started it all but From Dusk Til Dawn is way sillier and crazier than Desperado. You could immediately counter and say Desperado is way more nuts than El Mariachi. I think I just like his casting choices and not really anything else. Well, he does make a hell of a breakfast taco too.

Spy Kids seems like a better starting point. Given the content of the film, From Dusk Till Dawn is actually pretty subdued. The silliest element in it is Sex Machine, and that's not much more of a stretch than the two mariachis that show up in Desperado who have their own guitar/gun thing going except they've got a rocket-guitar case and a machine-gun guitar case.
