This is awesome. Some of it is true and some of it isn't, but great insight. Consideration must be made to who has multiple film deals with the studio (Efron) or a huge deal with a TV show (Kutcher). It is also the publicist that comes in and screws everything up, not the agent. Most of these aren't from getty though, they're unit photography pulled from the film, Kutcher withstanding. That was actually a photo from production. He fought really hard on everything, probably because he didn't want to be in the film. This thing was a nightmare. I was more pleased with how this turned out...  There is actually a lot of work done on this but for once it came out looking natural. I'm not a huge fan of how the sun under Taylor Schilling's chin makes her face a bit distorted but it looks good one-sheet size. With how much work went into it making everybody happy I was glad that it came out looking like they're actually there. For once. Some people have complained about how it looks flat and just a picture slapped up and a title slapped on but that is not at all the case. This could have gone VERY wrong.

westborn posted:Sorry, but with the text hugging the edge so closely and the adopted expectation of centered credits at the bottom, this looks like someone cut off a big piece of the left side of the poster. I don't disagree and I had nothing to do with that decision so I don't feel bad. However I should point out that this is the bar:  The worst.  Like a poster in the classroom of Saved by the Bell.  Like the image but hate the billing block. Hard to read too.

Bloody Hedgehog posted:The phrase "Die Hard" existed long before the film came out. I think it dates back at least a couple hundred years. I remember being entirely confused why they would name a film after a car battery. When I first saw it I kept waiting for the battery part, I mean until it started to get awesome and I forgot about it.

Crackerman posted:As mediocre as the film is I really like the title Live Free or Die Hard. Pity it's called Die Hard 4 point loving 0 here in the UK. I just caught Live Free or Die Hard for the first time about a week ago and I was pleasantly surprised. I don't think it was mediocre at all. Also on the off-hand chance UK or other goons from foreign lands don't know, the phrase is a play on words with an American Revolutionary War motto... quote:The phrase comes from a toast written by General John Stark on July 31, 1809. Poor health forced Stark, New Hampshire's most famous soldier of the American Revolutionary War, to decline an invitation to an anniversary reunion of the Battle of Bennington. Instead, he sent his toast by letter:

TheBigBudgetSequel posted:The character posters are even worse. What really bugs me is that the characters in the actual film, besides Depp of course, don't really look like typical Burton characters. The posters make them look that way, and it's loving cheap and lovely. It was not, it was done by another team. However this film is based on a long-running British soap opera that Depp is a huge fan of. I haven't seen it but I hear it is pretty good and has a distinct campy tone and that is what they're trying to get across.

LesterGroans posted:and clearly a product of the Alice/Chocolate Factory era Burton. I don't know what this means. There are hundreds and hundreds of different comps and many many directions that they go, then meeting after meeting happens and the production team along with the executives choose which direction they want to go and then they cut and paste and spice and dice. If there is any connection to those films it is probably due to the taste of the filmmakers, not any kind of direct correlation to past films. I also should remind everyone that these are designed to be one-sheet size and there is a big difference when you view it that way as opposed to your screen. I'm not really defending it because I don't really like this very much, I'm just saying what happens.

Yeah I just went over and asked, someone said it was British and they are wrong and just made me wrong. So gently caress you, coworker.quote:Dark Shadows is an American-produced gothic soap opera that originally aired weekdays on the ABC television network, from June 27, 1966 to April 2, 1971. The show was created by Dan Curtis. The story bible, which was written by Art Wallace, does not mention any supernatural elements. It was unprecedented in daytime television when ghosts were introduced about six months after it began.

She's pretty good but she's pretty much a steaming pile of poo poo compared to Depp and Bonham-Carter, despite any audience backlash of them working together all the time.

I was eight when Jaws 3D came out. Yes I'm old. My older brother was 17 and worked at a movie theater. They had a very illegal after-hours 3D screening for my idiot brother and all his degenerate friends and my brother brought me. An eight year-old. To loving JAWS. I grew up in Kansas thank god because I wouldn't even go near a waterbed for years.

Bloody Hedgehog posted:Why would that be illegal? I just meant that the owners/bosses certainly didn't know about or approve a bunch of 17 year-old employees and all their friends watching a movie after hours with booze and weed. It was 1983. Think Dazed and Confused. Jaws 3D is atrociously bad, btw and also has a horrible poster in keeping with the topic.

I'm not saying I don't like it, it's just a sharp right-turn from the mysterious, ethereal vibe they were going for. This looks like a campaign for a sci-fi techy movie like Minority Report or something. They exorcised the sense of impending doom is I guess what I'm saying.

Deadpool posted:Your suspension of disbelief is broken by use of a company that actually exists? I don't think that's how it works. I was immediately disgusted because I could hear the cross-promotion meeting happening because I've been to them. It might not offend others, who knows. But personally I don't like mixing a futuristic sci-fi/horror movie with present companies, at least not Verizon because I feel like it dips into a tongue-in-cheek effect that a movie of this magnitude should be above. The fact that I'm even thinking about that takes me out of the story. I suppose it would be one thing if it was an iconic company like IBM but Verizon is way too new, way too contemporary. Plus it is a phone carrier service, what does that have to do with androids? Maybe Allied Signal or some kind of engineering company but not a phone carrier. Blech. I dislike. kiimo fucked around with this message at 04:13 on Apr 19, 2012 |

Die Laughing posted:How'd you feel about Blade Runner? I was too young to recognize what was going on. Walking around the city and being bombarded with ads in the film is a little more acceptable to me (because that happens in real life) than having "powered by Verizon" on your poster but I suppose the fact that it is a viral ad unlocked through a Verizon application make it much more tolerable, I didn't know that. I just saw them on IMP Awards.
