I keep waiting for the day I come across a minimalistic poster for Planes, Trains & Automobiles that's just the Ghostbusters poster, but with the ghost swapped out for a pair of pillows.

Merle doesn't have a kicking rad mowhawk, will not watch. Seriously, Yondu's got a kicking rad mowhawk and with all the artificial hair on Glenn Close, you'd think they'd spring for a giant murderhawk for Michael Rooker.

Mister J posted:From a page back but http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrapposto Not the most successful or really even intentional form of the stance but standing off axis is not an entirely unheard of concept in design. Also regarding the minimalist posters, I would love to see a better version of the back to the future one. It's a nice concept with a boring execution.

Compare and Contrast: Last Friday' s home double-feature edition. ACROSS 110th Street vs.GALAXY OF TERROR. Guess who survives the flick group-shot version.  Mortified Anthony Quinn DVD version.  Best tagline version.  Best Italian title version.  Lurid, if slightly inaccurate version of icky space-worm rape scene version!  Alternative title obvious ALIEN rip-off version  REALLY obvious ALIEN rip-off version  Obligatory Italian Oh-God-Look-at-Erin-Morans-Giant-Eyeballs version.

Sup 2010/2011 Borders employee  Sadly my store didn't do nearly as well, but we still had quite a bit of Doreen Virtue sales and the like. Then again yours couldn't have done that well either since the company went under that year. That was a really fun couple of months-- letting the stacks go to hell, telling customers to go gently caress themselves when they wanted you to find needles in a haystack, and scooping up awesome media at bargain prices.

I liked The Conjuring a hell of a lot, but I really could've done without the movie arguing hard in favour for the Warrens. It's like it's saying "Ok this is just a movie, but they do the REAL work guys".

boom boom boom posted:My favorite part of the movie is when everyone's down in the basement except the college intern, and suddenly thousands of birds start flying around the house. The birds leave before everyone gets out of the basement, so the only source there could be for that is the intern. Now I think what happened was like one bird flew into a window or something, the guy freaked out, so when everyone came up he was like "There were birds EVERYWHERE!"

Pretty annoying blog set up but this is an interesting post about how 80s poster art got passed around. http://tenaflyviper.tumblr.com/post/91300849855/lets-play-six-degrees-of-old-horror-movie-poster Edit: Don't look at anything else on the blog though, the guy is a real rear end in a top hat about other stuff. muscles like this! fucked around with this message at 22:49 on Jul 19, 2014 |

Hell, the public library I work at runs on that poo poo (Indigo Children, 2012, maya's, Erich von Däniken). We also have a section "reality/true stories" that's very tellingy put next to fiction, but that's less "The Amityville Horror" and more "Lifetime movie channel" type stuff.

That whole poster just looks like a MAD Fold-In to me, with the fold being right at the ski pole covering the woman's (non-existent) nipple.
