Now it's just 200. I think if you were gonna do that you'd have to make the sun really strong, strong enough to let you do the whole 2001 in black, even if you can barely see the 2.

Bonus.

That is really cool, it looks like there's some pitch black dimensional window inexplicably shining light onto the surface of Venus or some poo poo. This doesn't happen in the movie but I like it.

edit: more accurately, like it's a closed door with light escaping from underneath.

It runs the risk of beating 4/6 jokes in the movie to death, but I think this works really well at conveying the movie before you see it. Dark, introspective, childish and homophobic.

Wait, you think the film itself is homophobic? Admittedly, I've not seen it in years.

The film depicts a world where 'fag' is just an insult like any other. There doesn't seem to be any explicit homophobia, and even if there were it would probably be part of the satire.

This is a sort of a devil's advocate argument but consider the following: A large number of the characters are, so it is in a meta and then actual way when you consider that joke requires the audience to laugh at it in order to work. But the writer came up with it, and he thought it would be funny to do it, both are aware of the joke being laughing at ignorant idiots, but also at the delivery and content of the ignorant characters. It's like the writer pointing the homophobic finger at the audience, exposing them as homophobic because they laugh, and then the audience pointing the homophobic finger back at the writer for penning it.

Does that mean Mike Judge is actually homophobic, or anyone who watches it and laughs is homophobic, no.

This is like the "Ow, My Balls" clip writ large. The whole purpose of that is "try not to laugh at this, because, if you do, you've proven the point of this movie".

I don't get the whole "future" thing, as "Ow, My Balls!" has been on since the early 90's, first hosted by Bob Saget and now Tom Bergeron.

Also, Youtube is basically "Ow, My Balls!". It's already here. Were living it now. We just need TV's with 30 feeds and child-taking fast food chains.

Just wait until Johnny Knoxville gets a Lifetime Achievement Award to coincide with the release of "Jackass X". And he accepts the award by going on stage and taking a huge dump.

This wouldn't actually be that bad if it weren't for the really bad and incongruous font in the upper left. It looks more like a pulp paperback cover though.

I've avoided all trailers for World War Z even though I have read the book. Trailers always ruin a third act twist which ruins the first time viewing. See: Dark Knight Rises

I don't have a problem with this one at all. The title is legible, and the graphical elements support it well. Using flags instead of a globe to symbolize the world is a nice way to show that humanity is not a unified force, whereas we can see from the poster that the zombies are. Then there's the tilt, which adds a bit of tension to the poster and reinforces the idea that the world has gone awry.*

*It also reminds me of a sinking ship, which is fitting given the tsunami-like character the zombie horde seems to possess.

The perspective on the title text is all kinds of hosed-up though, and the whole thing looks too apocalyptic. Why is Yonkers in the middle of a desert?

I dunno, it seems to juxtapose the massive conflict of the surrounding battle over Middle Earth with the solitary introspection of Frodo's mission- it's a bit more encompassing in that way.
