beanieson posted:Samuel L Jackson is playing Samuel L Jackson, just like always. He actually has a fair bit of range and Stephen in Django Unchained last year was a change of pace. I mean, his characters in Fresh, Jackie Brown and Unbreakable are all totally different. Lakeview Terrace is, to an extent, a comment on his "bad motherfucker" persona. I mean there's a shtick that he's good at that makes him a bit of a character actor but I wouldn't say he's totally limited or unable to show variety in his roles.

The tagline for this fails to make any grammatical sense, no matter which way you slice it.

That's such a bad tag line. You can't have the name of the movie in there. At least go with "Some call it organized crime, others call it..."

Dissapointed Owl posted:It is. I've checked. The closest one for me is a Warren Oates-starring drama called "Cockfighter", which is actually a pretty good little movie. Roger Corman's New World Pictures was releasing it, everyone (rightfully) thought it was unmarketable, and someone in the publicity department proposed the tagline "He came into town with his cock in his hand. And what he did with it was illegal in 49 states." EDIT: IIRC, that was the only reason the movie is called "Head." v v v v v Robert Denby fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Jun 9, 2013 |

My favorite hypothetical tagline comes from The Monkees, who, if they'd ever gotten to make a sequel to their only theatrical movie, wanted to put on the poster, "From the guys that gave you Head."

That's quite nice and atmospheric on top of having Alan Lee's/John Howe's cool designs. At this point I'll give it points solely for not having floating loving heads. E: A higher res version

BOAT SHOWBOAT posted:It's more to do with the fact that it's a cult foreign film than anything to do with age (Spielberg and Will Smith were going to do it a while back before they both pulled out). Spike Lee is a real director though and the cast is fine so this should be worth a watch, rather than just a cash-in. Excuse me, what? Steven Spielberg is not a real director?

Two posters of vastly differing quality for two upcoming action movies. Escape Plan, starring Stallone and Schwarzenegger  Rushlights, making a stern challenge for "worst poster of the year."

His face isn't even the worst thing on there. Look at the girl, her face is just slightly too big and a little off center. It's extremely unnerving. Also, I find it funny that they spent all that time scrubbing the details off the guy's face, but they didn't do anything about those big horrible veins sticking out of his arm. And then at the bottom you can't tell who is supposed to be holding the gun. Is the guy on the left holding it in front of Beau Bridges or is Beau Bridges holding it really awkwardly in front of his face? Really the thing you're pointing out is possibly the least terrible thing on that poster. And that's not a statement I'm making lightly. Also the girl on the poster is seriously freaking me the gently caress out. She's got this creepy little anorexic child body and this weird face that's too large and some how makes her look 45 when I'm sure the actress in this movie is most likely 25 or under. I don't know what it is, but after all the lovely posters in this thread, for some reason this is the one that broke me.

Paul Booth of Influx Magazine was probably handsomely compensated for such a glowing cover review. And by "handsomely compensated" I mean "a production company staffer took him to Denny's and bought him a Grand Slam breakfast".

Do you find your movie watching time cuts into your resenting time? Vagabundo posted:Two posters of vastly differing quality for two upcoming action movies. I just see the prison in the escape plan poster as the only two options they never let loose at the end of cabin in the woods. Such a drat shame.

muscles like this? posted:Didn't Melvin Van Peebles get VD while filming the sex scenes (because he actually had sex during them.) His 14 year old son also lost his virginity on set performing a sex scene as young Sweetback on his father's direction, which is messed up to say the least. Another recommendation for Baadasssss, some of the stories in it are just amazing. Like how they secretly filmed a fire truck that showed up out of the blue to extinguish a car they set on fire, or when someone accidently mixed up the fake prop guns with a real loaded one that the crew used for protection. v Indeed he was. goodog fucked around with this message at 14:22 on Jun 10, 2013 |

When I went one of the extra scenes for Anchorman 2, one part of Will's scene was punching* a dolphin and saying one liners. One of the takes he said "Go back and hang out with George C Scott!" before punching* him, but no one laughed but me  *No he didn't really punch an the dolphin.
