Paper Jam Dipper posted:Tarantino is more about paying homage to the 70s instead of making movies based in the 70s. I mean it's refreshing to see that general aesthetic and soundtrack without Tarantino, regardless of when it's set.

Yeah that movie looks alright. I just want Clive Owen to get more work, dude hasn't been in that much stuff lately, at least not in any bigger productions and it felt like he was a bit underused in The Shadow Dancer despite being a pretty good movie.

Any idea why the movie would already have this crappy score of 4.7/10 on IMDB? It says 58 reviews, but the film hasn't even been publicly released anywhere yet, has it?

It looks like that score is from user votes- maybe it's drawing in internet hatred for some reason.

That poster is boring as hell but like others have said authentic. Looks like it would fit right in anywhere from 1975 to 1982. Speaking of authentic 1970s movie posters...

Once people have actually seen the movie the score will probably go up to the median iMDb score of 7.8.

That's something that was clearly designed by committee and put unrealistic pressures on the designer due to a whole lot of people not understanding their job and the push-and-pull when it comes to theses things. And that resulted in a whole lot of compromise.

My favorite part is the train in the foreground being on seemingly the same track as the crashing train on the collapsing tracks in the background.

So the movie features Johnny Depp in old makeup and a big beard, while Armie Hammer is in drag? Who are these two guys in the middle?

SuitcoatAvenger posted:Check out this clusterfuck of marketing: that is some Baby's First Photoshop poo poo right there. So they are in a panic mode with this film too? Now they have resorted to "let's just throw everything against the wall, SOMETHING must stick!". I've seen about 3 different trailers for this and I still couldn't tell what the story is. Of course sometimes it is good not to tell everything, but I'd like if there was more to it than "Bill Fichtner tries to ____, Indian-Depp and Hammer try to stop him, action follows". But then again, it's Verbinski burning away Disney's money in a somewhat nice fashion so I can't be too mad about it.

Kush posted:Of course sometimes it is good not to tell everything, but I'd like if there was more to it than "Bill Fichtner tries to ____, Indian-Depp and Hammer try to stop him, action follows". This, big time. From what I can tell Lone Ranger is shot by Fitchner, resurrected by Tonto(?), and they team up to seek revenge. Oh, and Helena Bonham Carter is in it and has a leg cannon. Oh, and apparently there's a train sequence because every trailer has been built around showcasing it. It's like they're so banking on "Johnny Depp in makeup" that they don't feel the need to actually show anything of substance about the movie itself.

It's like a goddamn Asylum poster. You'd think with a budget as big as that movie has ($250 million ), they'd allocate enough for some loving decent posters, but I guess not!

There's a full brass band playing on top of the train in between the surfing horse and a full blown gun fight.

Do Tonto and the Lone Ranger spend all their time hand cuffed together? Is this actually a remake of the Laurence Fishburne/Stephen Baldwin vehicle 'Fled'?

Oh lord. It looks like everything has suddenly appeared from their own dimensions to a new one with no relation to each other. Rageaholic Monkey posted:It's like a goddamn Asylum poster. You'd think with a budget as big as that movie has ($250 million ), they'd allocate enough for some loving decent posters, but I guess not! I think it also comes down to a clear vision they should have had (and probably did) even before the film has started shooting. I mean, if you look at the Man of Steel trailers and posters, everything looks so carefully planned. Everyone of those lens flares and color schemes look like they have a point and they belong. Even Wolverine has those Japanese style posters and themes, even if the trailer makes the film look a little flat and pointless, they still try. With this, they have once again fallen into the pit of "Westerns are so hard to sell". Surely they should have known this from the beginning. Westerns are always their own thing, they all look the same; dusty, dry, washed out colors. Some people find those things boring and somehow "lifeless". Now they had the advantage of Verbinski and Depp team and surely that's how they started out. Then they probably had some analysts going "people aren't responding to zany Indian-Depp as well as we hoped". There you have your first and biggest problem. They then start throwing in everything they have. Now it's over the top action film with huge setpieces and crazy western action. Like Wild Wild West? SHIIIIEEET. Now there's some mystique and weird spiritual things, maybe otherworldly things and characters! Like Jonah Hex? SHHHHHHHIIIIIII- IT'S EVERYTHING, LOOK! GO SEE IT!
