I gotta ask what is this really. I know what it's supposed to look like, it looks like it could be close-up of a drawn face or a printed page that, out of context, is being made to look like the abdomen of a naked woman.

Everytime I see that poster though I think of the rumour that Spy vs Spy from MAD was going to be made into a movie.

I swear the UK trailer I saw said "Spy versus spy". Either I'm misremembering or it was probably changed for legal reasons.

The tag line doesn't make sense to me, 'hero' still means good or at least it has good connotations. It isn't the 'Super' that makes it good.

Yes, "Not all supers are heroes" would make more sense to me.

Not a movie, but the UK cover of Charlie Stross's Halting State does something similar. I'd link it, but I don't have time to put it on imgur and I'm not sure if a direct link would contravene the image leeching rules. A quick Google Images search will find it easily enough, though.

Oddly enough, the poster/cover for Nothing To Lose is not as bad if you take a closer look at it. I mean, Martin Lawrence even starts to look like Martin Lawrence!


I think this is also another one of those odd billing situations. Notice how Martin Lawrence gets credited first at the bottom (on the embedded image).

I think he's pretty great in Fright Night actually, he plays up the sexual predator angle of that character quite a bit. So it's a shame the last 3rd of it basically has him playing the Boogeyman.

My understanding is that Danny Dyer is a twat who churns out lovely movies to appeal to people who think the Fast & Furious movies are too intellectual.

Also he suggested that a man who got dumped should cut his girlfriend's face "so no-one would want her". Well, perhaps it was a ghostwriter, but still.

So is this film title supposed to be as in "laugh out loud" (which everyone, except your gran who has never seen a phone or a computer in her life, knows LOL means) or "lots of love" (which supposedly only David Cameron here in the UK thinks it is)?

In all seriousness, though, I'm really excited for this. The poster's a little strange, though . . . It looks like two of them only have one leg.

Apparently a teaser's going to be attached to The Dictator. They're really getting the word out on this one.

I think the last two might be standing sideways-on. It made me think of a barbershop quartet, but I can't find a picture that shows what I mean.

Hey, buddy, there's only so many sci-fi stories you can write. There's bound to be two stories where there's a space traveler at the top of a mountain throwing a giant boulder at another space traveler standing next to a giant crevice.

I honestly can't remember whether that happened in Solar Lottery or not. I don't want to rule it out because I'm sure there was a chase scene on an asteroid/moon or something like that.

Okay he would have to have his knees over a bar like a trapeze artist to fit in that bell. It wouldn't be loud at all because it would be him striking the bell and frankly it doesn't look like it would even hurt that bad because his arms aren't even tied behind his back. The ropes would hurt worse than the bell.
