There's probably websites that do this for you, but I thought I'd kill some time. Oh wow, those are awesome! Makes my desktop look like the world's most fantastically baffling Netflix UI. Can't find my icons anymore, but oh well.

I feel bad for anyone whose career clearly doesn't pan out they way they'd hope. Doing stuff like this is obviously a paycheque but at what point do you think about giving up on your dream and getting an office job? The fall from grace from T3 (relatively speaking) must have hurt.

She probably feels at home doing horrible b-grade stuff now. She should run with it, and become the female equivalent of Bruce Campbell. E: VVV Touche.

Because her name pretty much declares that there's a 70 percent chance of breasts in this movie.

Mister Chief posted:300 was released in 2006. This film was released in August 2011. Is this the sequel to "Meet the Spartans" or something? Cuz i honestly thought thats what it was at first glance of the poster. Also Tony Cox is all these spoof movies and he sucks. At least Will Sasso has some talent at comedy and Loken and Monk are attractive.

TetsuoTW posted:Campbell has charisma and is a terrible actor though. Fixed that for you. But I don't know, as long as you can get steady work I don't think doing these kind of b-movies is really that bad. I imagine they pay fairly decent and you have a good time on set, so unless you were hoping on getting a serious business career, I can't see what the problem is. Atleast you are still working.

TetsuoTW posted:Campbell has charisma and isn't a terrible actor though. Plus he was in Army of Darkness, and he at least appeared in some blockbusters like the Spider-Man movies. Putting him at the same level as Kristinna Loken, who was a robotic villain with hardly any dialogue in one mainstream movie and a bunch of direct to video crap isn't a fair comparison. Also, a 300 parody? In 2012? Really?

I went looking around for posters... I love this one. I adore it. And I lost the chance to buy it.  I love the pretty art in this one.  I'm trying to ignore the cartoony eyes in Cesare,because I like a lot the artistic style in The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari's movie and posters.

Desperado Bones posted:I love this one. I adore it. And I lost the chance to buy it. It's a good poster. It was re-used as the box art for the 1980's computer game based on the movie, so I know the art well. What I didn't realise was that Bruno "Hitler" Ganz and Isabelle Adjani were in it. I don't normally bother with Kinski movies, but I may have to check this one out.

It's been something that people have brought up ever since it was announced they were doing the new Ghost Rider, and they actually acknowledged that they would love to have Cage in Crank 3 in an interview they did. So there is hope

If you want to find positives, just try to think how they managed to make a fantasy/martial arts TV show at all when they had no money whatsoever to spend on it. I think they had something like three standing sets and one exterior location (which was a dirt service track in the woods) for all their filming.

The CGI is actually decent for their situation too, but there are times you can tell they blew the entire episodes budget for a 2 second shot of a completely stationary Goro standing on a cliff that has nothing to do with the rest of the episode. Also, Jeffery Meek is loving AWESOME.

Remember the poster for "Darling Companion" that just had a dog on it? No indication of what it was about or anything? Here it is for reference:Mister Chief posted:And here's the final poster and it's somehow infinitely worse.  I didn't know Patrick Duffy had gone into film. Also, Diane Keaton's face appears to be a mishmash of several unrelated faces.

Here it is for reference: Her shirt has zero texture, and was there really no other place to put the actors' names but in the center, right between the two people? the dog looks way better though, and apparently grow some legs. It looks like it's gone from being a Corgi to a shepherd-type dog. Still, a vast improvement from the previous poster.
