I like this one because even before I scrolled down enough to see the title I knew exactly what movie it was. I didn't realize that shirt/suspenders/tie combo was so iconic.

feedmyleg posted:However, it's much more iconic for someone who has seen the film, overall most of what it tells outsiders is essentially "this movie takes place in an office where people wear ties" - which you essentially already get from the title. Something that simply and cleverly conveys the idea of being stuck in a corporate hell would be much more appropriate and interesting. Or being a faceless cog in a machine, or having an oppressive amount of red tape between you and any decision, etc. For a theatrical poster yeah, but this is specifically made for fans of the movie.

I'll never understand the obsession goons have with fonts. At least it's not comic sans or impact right?

jojoinnit posted:How often does this question come up in this thread? I think it's every twenty pages or so, I'm not sure. I'd have to go through the old one to get a clearer picture. It's a fair question though. I know it would be difficult to get all the actors together with hectic schedules and all, but why cant they just take an hour on one of the days where they're shooting a group scene and take a picture? It seems so simple but I'm sure it's wildly impossible for some reason.

My only minor complaint is that the clouds that make up the radiation symbol don't really look like clouds at first glance. They look more like big black holes until you get a chance to look a little closer, but like I said that's minor. Pretty good poster.

That poster for The Artist is infinitely better than that blu-ray cover. Wouldn't it have been cheaper just to stick it on the the blu ray instead of paying some graphic design dropout to photoshop something so generic?

TetsuoTW posted:Yeah, he wrote a letter to the Internet basically saying "look guys, I appreciate that you love my stuff so much you want to share it, but it feels weird seeing other people do what they want with it and I'm kind of personally attached to it, so if you wouldn't put it online that'd be cool. Thanks." And it just goes to show that asking nicely and keeping a level head will go a long way on the Internet, even with the jaded 4chan types, since I don't think I've ever seen a Far Side cartoon online ever.

Yeah, thinking more about it, I guess you could call it a horror comedy. I see it more of a horror thriller though, but maybe that's semantic.

I liked Cedar Rapids but that cover in no way conveys anything about the movie, in fact it conveys the exact opposite. It looks like they were trying to make it seem like The 40 Year Old Virgin or something on the cover when it's actually a dark comedy and pretty depressing most of the time.
