Calico Heart posted:Maybe not the right thread to gripe about this, but I am so loving sick of reboots of movies just removing a single word from the title. I have no idea what they think this accomplishes. Actually - for horror or action movies, I can kind of understand that it makes it punchier or darker or some crap, but for Paddington Bear? Christ. Or how about when a title is like a common phrase that is missing words, or lacking punctuation. Like, "No Good Deed" or whatever. Also that one that was posted on the last page "are you here". Leaving off the punctuation just makes the title read poorly (especially since they changed the name from You Are Here, which actually makes sense). I'd be happier with "R U HERE?" for some reason. I guess people don't want to have to sound like idiots when they say "I'm going to see Are You Here?" Something like that.

With J. Edgar it's immediately clear what the movie is about. I think it was the correct choice. "Hoover? It sucks!"

Recently my grandparents have been transiting to a nursing home, so there's been a lot of cleaning up. My mom and my aunt brought this home last night: Well, those logos sure are interesting...  Oh my!  Some of them are fairly water-damaged, but my movie-night crew and I are going to go catalog them tonight!

My mom and my aunt brought this home last night: Well, it was a bit of a bust. Most of the posters were advertising the VHS/DVD release.: The Whole Nine Yards (2000) My Dog Skip (2000) Thick as Thieves (1998) Boiler Room (2000) Down to You (2000) Magnolia (1999) Diamonds (1999) The Ninth Gate (1999) Mansfield Park (1999) Topsy-Turvy (1999) Beethoven's 3rd (2000) Scream 3 (2000) Isn't She Great (2000) Simpatico (1999) Whatever It Takes (2000) What Planet Are You From? (2000) x 9 copies Girl, Interrupted (1999) x6 copies Superstar (1999) City Hunter (1993) Project A Part II (1987) Double Jeopardy (1999) Somewhere in the City (1998) Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life (1997) Topless Women Talk About Their Lives (1997) Fireworks (1997) I Went Down (1997) Man on the Moon (1999) Unfortunately the poster I was most interested in, Man on the Moon, was pretty water-damaged. The Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life poster was also fairly damaged and I was not gentle with it in the slightest.

Some good movies in there though. If I were in your shoes, I'd be tempted to keep Magnolia and Topless Women Talk About Their Lives (Kiwi pride) assuming they weren't too water damaged.

I know that Dracula has been known, on occasion, to turn into a vampire bat and fly away. But i've never heard of his CAPE turning into a mass of bats! Truly, this is Dracula Untold.

It was actually given to me at a 24-hour movie marathon, in exchange for a collection of movie soundtracks. Sadly, I don't have the wall space to display it, so it's been tucked behind an old CD tower for the last few years.

The poster itself is pretty uninspired, but if you wanted to pick an image that defined The Big Lebowski, I don't think they could have done much better. The tagline is shite, though.
