Yeah, I like the concept but, you're right, the 8-bit aspect of it makes the skull look too cartoony.

I loved that poster they had for its festival appearance. Just white poster board with a VHS taped to it and V/H/S sharpied above it.

Didn't AxleBlaze win one of those?

Yes, yes I did :)

Hahaha, I got dragged to see Catfish because my friend thought it was a horror movie.

Catfish remains one of the worst marketed movies I've ever seen.

Expendables 2 is really trying it's darnedest to convince me that it'll be a movie worth seeing. The problem is that after the last one there's very little that can convince me of that (including goons saying it's good because that's I went to see the original in the first place).

Let Me In was a movie that was obviously very aware of the original and took alot of influence from the original but it rather than being the same movie is used the original as a starting point to be it's own thing. The original is a story about a boy that meets a little girl that happens to be a vampire. The remake is a story of a boy that meets a vampire that looks like a little girl.

I had the exact opposite impression of the original from y'all. I assumed that the kid was gonna end up like the dude at the beginning, that the girl had been doing the same thing for centuries; getting a little boy to fall in love with her and then using him for a few decade before moving on.

It's easy to get this from the original but it wasn't intentional. The original doesn't really show that much against them being together. Alot of the darker aspects can be inferred by following things through but are still not shown. In general the relationship isn't shown as being as bleak in the original. The remake goes out of it's way to assure you that this is bad.

The author of the book and the original movie didn't even really consider that there was anything bad about the relationship between the two main characters. He thought the ending was a happy one. In the book it's even made clear that her caretaker is a creepy pedophile and the things with Oskar is different. I mean death of the author and all that but that was the original intention.

I've been staying away from remakes since for a while,and because I loved Let the Right one In I've been staying away from that remake. Is it really good? Really,really good? I won't come back here to scream at you guys? :ohdear:

Your results may vary, but I like it more than the original and I quite liked the original. It really compliments the original too because it shows how you can make a movie that's similar but how some slight changes in tone make it a completely different movie. There's also a scene in the remake that is probably the best thing in either movie.

I thought the topless Salander teaser poster went a much longer way in making me want to see Fincher's Girl With The Dwaggy Tat and the rest was just kind of standard stuff. The trailer was also really great.

TGWTDT has the rare distinction of having trailers that were way better than the actual movie. Those trailers for me so hyped and the movie was pretty meh (more due to it being based on a lame story than anything related to Fincher).

Goddamn the early 2000s were the dumbest time in music.

So it's fine for Borat and GWTDT to do it but when SoaD do it it's dumb?

If you're referring to the title, it's so named because it's basically a proper release of a bunch of low quality demos that fans were pirating at the time (all rerecorded at studio quality).

The minimalism thing isn't bad in and of itself it just that the vast majority of examples of it are badly thought out and smug about their lack of effort. The Great Dictator manages to express alot about film with just a few black shapes on a red background. It's what most of the minimalist things are attempting to do but failing at because they suck.

and I have this one:

Except it's signed by the three leads.

Also while looking for a picture of the Kill Bill poster I found that there are an amazing amount of lovely minimalist Kill Bill posters out there. I think this might be the worst one:

Very jealous. Who's missing?

Some of the signatures on my poster are hard to make out but I think it's signed by Tarantino, Uma Thruman, Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, David Carradine, Michael Madsen, and two that I'd pretty much just be guessing about at this point (though I think one is Sonny Chiba and the other might by Daryl Hannah, but I'm really not sure anymore).
