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.

I always thought Henry Rollins should have been cast as the Punisher. He's too old now though. Anyway, Spawn is only a "Will Smith is interested" away from getting greenlit. Spawn is horrible by the way and any film would be horrible. I'm just saying.

Got this in today, the artwork is ok, nothing terrible or good although it looks like Ewans left eye is about to pop out. I had never heard of it before so I decided to look it up and found this poster that just messes with my head.  Then I found this awful poster which looks like the cover to a trashy romance novel.

Yeah, it's something ridiculous that Stan Lee wrote. They were CIA agents that were killed by the Red Skull while they were on a secret mission to Algeria, leaving Peter to be raised by Uncle Ben and Aunt May from a very young age.

Jedit posted: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. I don't think Comic Sans looks very good as a proper comic book font. I mean, I don't wanna sound spergy but the original Sin City font isn't that bolded and ugly. Comic Sans just automatically makes me think about googly eyes and ms paint colors.

kiimo posted:Here's what it is, when you stop making profitable and quality sequels you reboot. That's the new blueprint. X-Men hasn't had a reboot. First Class contradicts a couple of things from the other films, but it's pretty obvious it's meant to be in the same series, right down to Jackman as Wolverine and Stamos as Mystique. And they're talking about doing X-Men 4, which will hopefully ignore X3.

Wolverine was a reboot of sorts and first class was a reboot since Wolverine disappointed. I mean I liked it. But yeah X Men 3 (read: Brett Ratner) caused that. I didn't see X Men 3 and I didn't see Spiderman 3 which I felt was in my best interest. I saw Superman Returns but I guess he didn't Superman Return. I have this amazing plan I just made up to reboot Crow. It stars Adam Levine as the Crow and Christina Aguilera plays herself as the villain. They both do Joy Division covers involving dubstep. Katie Perry plays an extra terrestrial with a heart of gold but Russel Brand's part ends up on the cutting room floor based on focus group approval rating of 13%. Somebody kill me I'm through the looking glass.

I looked at your concept and I think it can be slightly improved. Adam Lambert is the Crow. He is killed in the middle of being absolutely fabulous, and is empowered with the powers of being the Crow, whatever that means, so he's undead and has the power to rock or something. His mentor is Lou Reed, but Adam Lambert rejects that, because Lou Reed is way too dreary and sees everything in black and white. Lambert thinks undeath needs more colour and being gorgeous. Lou Reed sulks away and Lambert finds a better mentor, Rupaul, who teaches him the powers of Charm, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent. Lady Gaga and Katy Perry are Lambert's rivals, and they act as recurring feuding partners with Lambert in making the world absolutely fantastic and amazing and delightful in their own special ways. Everyone is always much happier when the three of them appear together. The second act has them joining forces to defeat something terrible and poo poo, like I dunno Creed or Nickelback. Gaga and Perry are respectively nearly killed by the assistant of a mysterious villain (the assistant being a zombified Johnny Cash), but are afflicted with some dumbass dark disease so Lambert must confront the dull villain to save them. Rupaul reveals a whole new power to Lambert which he harnesses to fly across a rainbow stream to another part of the undead world. He ends up in a cemetry. Holy poo poo, Lou Reed is the mastermind after all! Lou Reed reveals he was trying to groom Lambert to be the harbinger of doom and gloom and make the world darker etc etc etc and too bad Lambert was too darling to be into that kind of poo poo. Lambert is like, "bitch, please" and with a flick of his little finger destroys Lou Reed's negativity and dresses him up in an Alexander McQueen and some beautiful Jimmy Choos. Lou Reed cries and learns to move on from being so boring. The movie ends with a gigantic Glee party with Lambert singing alongside Gaga, Perry, and Henry Rollins too, because why not.

Ez posted:Oooh ya got me. Except I wasn't talking about sperging in this thread, I was speaking about goons in general. Typography is hugey, hugely important. It's an art. A lot of 'goons' have taken to recognising one or two standard fonts and ranting about them, much in the same way that many of them in CD cling to the "praaaaaactical effeeects" bandwagon because it's the fast-track way to looking like a Film Connoisseur. However, rather that than the other instance on here were someone was raging "why does it even matter" that Papyrus was on the Avatar poster, and that it wasn't important. This why we have such terrible posters now, because execs know that people will swallow any old poo poo and that the details don't matter. It was mind blowing to see someone post 'lol u care about something' when discussing art - albeit commercial art. Desperado Bones posted:But then we have this: I like this. Immediately evocative of the TV movie, and actually quite chilling. I really like Radcliffe and I'm excited to see him in this. The posters showing him beardy and sleep-deprived is a GREAT way to break him out of Potterdom. echoplex fucked around with this message at 14:20 on Jan 28, 2012 |

Having actually worked for Todd McFarlane in recent years, at his offices in Phoenix, I can assure you he is still trying to get a Spawn movie going again, admist his other projects. I can also tell you that Todd is cool as poo poo and I can't knock on him for living every kid's dream. I mean, toys, comics, videogames, baseball... he really is a kinda inspirational figure even if you don't like the majority of his work.

Oh man, I miss being near a good poster shop. There was a an amazing place in Toronto I would go to all the time. They had tons of rare stuff, good prices on it too. Back when I was supervising an animation studio there, me and a few others went to that shop and loaded up on classic posters to decorate our offices. I think my favourite was this Temple of Doom variant poster:

Jack Black is one of those guys who can either be surprisingly great or just intolerable depending on the material. Loved him in some things, hated his guts in others. Maybe I'm bipolar for him or something.

He's very good with the right script (High Fidelity, School of Rock, Orange County) but horrible in too many things. He seems to mostly be after easy paycheques these days what with all the animated work he's done.
