That's such a piece of crap, but there are enough real lovely posters without going through every fan made turd. Like this:  The Rock is a terrible guardian. He's piss-bolting away from that lizard, leaving the kids behind with their legs trapped by the giant iguana eggs. This one isn't particular original or anything, but I really like the colours:  I've not seen this film, but I heard it's not actually about a skeletal tyrannosaurus and I lost interest. Amazing poster though.  R. Mute posted:One of the articles in the OP mentions that this scene was going to be the original poster. Alas, the MPAA. Yes, and this poster deserves to be seen.

Supercar Gautier posted:I do like the design of that Statham one, but cutting off the top of his head is kind of a composition no-no, I think. Your brain tries to extend/finish the image of the head in weird ways when that happens. Or at least, that's what my brain is doing right now. I know what you mean, it just keeps on going.

feedmyleg posted:True, but I think even there, there's a missed opportunity there to do something thematic with the poster. It bucks the obnoxious trend of just picking one non-representative image from the film and making a poster out of it, though. You may be able to pick up something to do with the "square" corporate atmosphere from the presence of the suspenders, or perhaps the claustrophobic framing, so at least it works on some level beyond most. This sums it up really well, a good minimalist poster should also tell you something about the film. Also, those Polish covers for the Chaplin DVDs looked like a Best of Hitler box set.

Really?! The entire cast is on the poster. Don't get me wrong, I hate Lucas and this film will likely suck, but the poster isn't that bad. From it I totally get that it's WWII and about the unsung hero black pilots.

Mister Chief posted:There have been three Punisher movies which all bombed. They're not going to make another one for a long while. As for Spawn, I doubt you will ever see another Spawn movie with any sort of real money behind it. That IP is just too 90s I think. People always say that, but we can't be stuck in this stupid '80s time warp forever (at least I sincerely hope not), they're gonna have to start ripping off the '90s eventually if they wanna keep up the trend of total creative stagnation. I hope it's soon because it can't be worse than the '80s, I hate the loving '80s. e: not that I like Spawn or anything, it's just inevitable.

StickySweater posted:Have you seen Dark City? Legitimate question. Maybe I'm just willing to give it a pass because its desire to look "late 90s wicked cool" is done really well in the movie. I see what you mean though with video card font and flashy lights. Yeah I have, though admittedly not since the wicked cool late '90s. But still, the film was totally noir and that cover art totally isn't, it looks cheap and a little tacky. I like the city scape itself, but the fonts and the colour scheme are awful. Floaty heads don't have to be terrible when they're appropriate, but here it really solidified the 'computer parts box art' resemblance to me. The Triumphant posted:The DVD cover's really bad though I always used to laugh at this cover in the video store for how crummy it looked. Viggo looks like a Muppet.

GonSmithe posted:30 minutes? Try 30 seconds. It's clever how it makes people watch the site like hawks and make snap impulse buys. They don't have to worry about stock piling up, but their prints are so nice I doubt that would happen anyway. Looking at some of the ones I've missed though is bumming me out, guess I'll have to settle for rastering some of the higher res previewd.

Darthemed posted:On topic, it's always nice when a poster for a bad movie lets you know in no uncertain terms that it is a movie you should not see. Oh wow, for years now it seems I've been under the illusion that Twins and this Junior movie were the same film  I vaguely remembered Twins being about Arnie and DeVito as twins and Arnie's the surrogate for DeVito's kid for some reason.

The Triumphant posted:Inglorious Basterds felt like such a huge step forward for the guy artistically that it's honestly hard to see him going back-- that film was just miles more subtle and actually mature than what came before it. Yup which is why I'm secretly hoping Django isn't a spaghetti (even though I'd still enjoy it) because I love a 'good' Western far too much to see all the amazing potential there wasted. Pretty excited for this drat film.

Shanty posted:I can't say it deserves a scoff as such, he's on to something with Basterds being a step away from Tarantino's famous back catalogue. I assumed he was referring to art direction? Which was stunning. But yeah, I'd generally agree that it's amazingly subtle in parts. Sure, the Brad Pitt sub-plot felt like it was from a different film, but everything else? The same kind of great wordiness as Death Proof but with far superior writing.

Hedenius posted:The way you worded this implies that spaghetti westerns are not good. Explain yourself or there will be... consequences. Whoah whoah whoah, when did people start using 'spaghetti' incorrectly. The Sergio westerns are the best westerns and thre dollars trilogy are some of my favourites. I always thought 'spaghetti' was the term for the cheesy pulpy westerns that also came out of Italy? Or am I wrong? I'd also agree with who ever said that a lot of American westerns were a bit bland, the best American one I've seen is No Country for Old Men (  it's a western).(also, another vote for 'Jackie Brown is the best Tarantino') Lizard Combatant fucked around with this message at 01:28 on Apr 13, 2012 |
