It's a story about a ball and a lot of letters also I haven't seen a 'narrated by' for some time now: Bill Cobbs's face in the back here is killing me:

Stuff like this blows my mind because it would take 8 seconds while filming to snap a picture like this in front of a green screen. Or, just hear me out, they could hire someone who knows how to use photoshop. How could you think this uncanny valley mess would attract people to see your movie?

Evil Mastermind posted:I wonder what that phone call must have been like. "Listen, we've been trying to reach Mr. DiCaprio all day I don't know if this is the correct person I should be speaking with but we are doing a revival of Growing Pains, Kirk Cameron and Traci Gold are both in and- hello? Hello?" "Mr. Clooney, I'm sorry to bother you between basketball games on the Warner lot but I've been trying for weeks to reach you about a project you'll definitely want to hear about see we're putting a Facts of Life reu- hey hey let go of me don't touch me! I've got a day pass! I bought a tour! George! We've got Molly Ringwald! George!"

For Clooney they need to make a new Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, obviously.

The request was probably along the lines of "Here are a bunch of assets that all have different lighting sources and levels of quality. Here is your miniscule budget for stock imagery to fill in the gaps. We need it by tomorrow fyi." This is the reason most posters are bad outside of just poor creative vision by clients/bosses, btw.

I imagine making a poster for a studio is like trying to work photoshop with one hand while 15 people hover behind you telling you different contradictory things and you have to please all of them while you constantly fight the crippling desire to drink your life away.

In the grand scheme of things a poster probably doesn't make much of a difference to a film's box office earnings, so why bother?

Also people don't really catch the type of stuff folks in this thread point out. They see these posters while walking past them at the movie theater, not scrutinizing them for proper lighting refraction and measuring the actors' limbs.

On the other hand, I walk past a bad poster, like a bizarre groupshot or a floating head and some clouds, or two white people embracing or leaning against each other, and without seeing the actors, the title, the director, or anything else I will know in that 1/16th of a second that I will never watch that movie.

That actually is the tone of most of the movie. Yes the subject matter is extremely dark but it does have a more or less positive outlook for much of it, mostly due to Jack's perspective on things. The Room poster is possibly my favourite non-High Rise/VVitch poster of the year.

Especially if you have actors who don't know the drill.

I mean not in any political way, but in a "if you're going to plaster it with quotes, then do like most posters and just choose a different conceit." The idea that they just poo poo all over the one impactful concept of the poster with what amounts to loving graffiti is just abhorrent.

If you're going to do pull quotes, don't make your pull quotes more prominent in your design than the title of the work.

That Sam Neill poster is better than that Kathy Bates one. He still does good acting sometimes too, like with that Willem Dafoe movie a couple years ago.Palpek posted:Anyway: That tree is either growing a head and hand or they're just floating next to it. I like the placement of the dragon though.
