Shouldn't Kill Bill 3 be what Tarantino does after Django Unchained? It's been about the amount of time he said he wanted to let pass in between doing it. Maybe when that happens we'll see the Whole Bloody Affair release?

This is awesome.

Aside from the morse code (which would mean nothing to people who haven't seen either movie/read the book), the poster perfectly expresses that it's a vampire film involving children. That, and it's bloody (no pun intended) gorgeous to boot.

EDIT: Well this is odd. I went on Olly Moss' website, and it looks like the version veonenergee posted is edited.

And there's even more, cause they're all sequels to the Air Bud movies!

The "A good old fashioned Orgy" poster was faulted for it's photoshoped pile of 'unkowns'.


Other countries fixed this by making a complete mess out of it:


But I've noticed there's actually a clean and clever simplitic poster out there, too:

The bad thing? Scriptina. I'm very sure the "The" is with the font Scriptina.

What I find off-putting is that the word "The" is in the flashier and more eye-catching font - how does that make sense?

If only my parents had seen that poster before they rented the movie for me. When I was 7. You were scarred by IT as a kid? Lucky you...I still can't watch Watership Down :gonk:.

I'm studying Graphic Design, and worked in a studio during December, we love to freak out about stuff like that. But yeah,overused fonts can make your whole work look cheap and amateur. Hell, using the wrong font can change the mood in your design.

No no, I was putting that in the potential marketing guy's mouth. I think Elizabeth Banks pretty much looks like just like an angel.

It's going for a comic book look (since it's a graphic novel), and comic sans is a font that is originally intended to be used in those little boxes in comic books.

Although they could had used another type of Comic book font that wasn't Comic Sans. Like the Red Tails poster did. My boss would always avoid Comic Sans like the plague.

In case you didn't know, Sin City is a comic book and the whole movie was designed to look like it was a comic. For it to use Comic Sans in boxouts is not only acceptable, it's the best possible representation of the movie.

And you won't hear that said again about Comic Sans, I imagine.

Comic Sans is largely based on the artist of Watchmen whose name is escaping me's handwriting in Watchmen, and he's come out as saying that he is both flattered and ashamed of that fact.

That plus it's more or less the font used in the comics.

I imagine "the untold story" is meant for people confused by the fact that this is like the fastest remake ever, and can use a reminder that it's not a movie they've already seen.

Well not quite, it's been 10 years since the first Spider-man movie, and it was only 5 years between Hulk movies. But people actually watched the first (3) Spider-man movies so they shouldn't think they can get away with it so easy.

ASK ME ABOUT BEING ALLERGIC TO POSITIVITY

I don't understand why it matters how long ago the first/last Spider-Man film came out.

If it's a good film then you've got another good Spider-man film, and if it's not then you just shrug your shoulders and move on. The original films still exist.

Here's what it is, when you stop making profitable and quality sequels you reboot. That's the new blueprint.

See Batman, Spiderman, X-Men, Superman (getting a new reboot next year).

I predict a Punisher reboot and a Spawn reboot next.

I'm not saying that. If it's a good movie, it's a good movie. I don't even like the Tobey Maguire one.

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.
