I'm curious as to the Japanese title. I see the possessive character in there so it's "of" something, but- literally all I know of Japanese I know from Godzilla posters.

Going through Google Translate and separating out the characters, it literally translates as "Planet of Sand", which I think is a carryover from the book. I believe there's a more recent push to use a katakana title for foreign titles, because the Wikipedia article actually gives me "De-yu--n".

It reminds me of the localized title for Apocalypse Now used to be "Revelation of Hell" (or "Hell's Apocalypse Record").

デューン/砂の惑星 translates to Dune: Planet of Sand, I think.

Yeah 47 Ronin looks fun. I'm one of the folks who really like Keanu, and I'll watch just about anything if Hiroyki Sanada is in it (Sunshine, The Last Samurai, Twilight Samurai, Speed Racer) and hell, 47 Ronin has loving Shang Tsung too.

Seriously, he's a child actor turned bodybuilder turned character-actor. He's been in a bunch of films, such as Conan The Barbarian (see above), Any Which Way But Loose (where he fights Clint in the climax), Red Dawn (where he plays the Spetsnaz commander), the Jerry Lewis' Nutty Professor, The Ultimate Warrior (where he fights Yul Brynner), with a career going all the way back to Ghost of Frankenstein in the '40s. He's like one of those quintessential "that guy".

What a terrible poster. You can't even see his face. Now how do I know who plays the main character of Rocky Balboa? Nice use of colour, idiot, glad to see you're stuck in the 1940s, ignoring the rule of thirds and bathing my eyes in boring-rear end white. Man, Mondo have really gone downhill on this one.

American Horror Story has always had amazing casts. I still need to watch season 2, and I'm really hoping the writing on it was better than season 1. 1 was good, but not as strong as it could have been.

I thought the first episode of Season 2 was kind of weak, but the second episode picks up pretty quickly. I thought it kept the momentum going all the way up to the last episode or two. The "epilogue" in the present day was pretty weak, other than that I liked it a lot more than Season 1 overall.

They will likely continue to do so, knowing full well any action they take will give the film immeasurably more attention and exposure than any poster or trailer.
