westborn posted:I'm really glad this one got included in here, because it's one of my favorite posters of last year. It conveys one of the main themes of the film (that Ryan Gosling and George Clooney's character are extremely similar), and one of the cultural undertones (that Gosling and Clooney themselves are remarkably similar) and it makes a point about the basic plotline of the movie, by making Gosling literally the man behind Clooney's presidential campaign. Not only that, but it makes you think that Clooney and Gosling look alike, when they honestly don't. This entire poster tells you that this movie would not have worked at all if these particular two men were not cast. Hell, it also reflects the naivete of Gosling's character by making him literally wide-eyed in contrast to Clooney. When people ask me if this movie is good, I tell them it's not as good as the poster deserves it to be. EDIT: Goddammit. Vargo fucked around with this message at 02:41 on Jan 22, 2012 |

QuoProQuid posted:David Cronenburg's son releases his first movie, Antiviral in a few days. Antiviral is a good flick you should check out, Cronenberg Jr. is a little more accessible than his father, but still the apple is not far from the tree. Really, I don't think the apple fell off, it dropped onto another branch.

Mondo is so tricky for me, because this is movie poster thread, and therefore it has to be talked about, but y'all get so friggin stupid with it that I literally wince every time it is brought up. So, for now, this seems to work: NEXT TEN POSTS MUST HAVE A NON-MONDO POSTER IN THEM OR YOU ARE PROBATED (Last time I did this it was five, I will keep adding to it every time this derail happens.)

King Vidiot posted:Yeah, he's a British comedic actor, also known for being Roy in The IT Crowd. I kinda feel like James Franco is known for a lot more than just his roles in Pineapple Express and Spring Breakers. Dude makes a lot of movies. O'Dowd, however, is shamefully unknown. If people haven't seen The IT Crowd, he's "Irish guy from Bridesmaids."

So, isn't this film supposed to be about Logan AND Kitty Pryde going back in time? Or did they just decided to remove/downsize Kitty's part entirely?

I laughed out loud at the Dances With Wolves one, because removed of any context or emotion, it just looks like Costner is a kid on a horse going "Wheeeeeee! Fly, horsie! Fly!"

If I had never seen Dances With Wolves, that DVD cover would tell me it's a movie about the special bond between a grown man with a child's brain, and his closest friend in the world, a camel.

zenintrude posted:What no one has told you is that they are essentially slip covers and the real box art is underneath... it's bad, but not as bad as it could have been. That explains why some of them (Silence of the Lambs, Usual Suspects, and apparently Platoon) are basically less interesting versions of the actual posters.
