The version of this in our theater is cropped to just be the photograph, making it anyone's guess what the movie is.

Both pretty good, but the Criterion release looks much prettier on a t-shirt.

I looked at your concept and I think it can be slightly improved.

Adam Lambert is the Crow. He is killed in the middle of being absolutely fabulous, and is empowered with the powers of being the Crow, whatever that means, so he's undead and has the power to rock or something. His mentor is Lou Reed, but Adam Lambert rejects that, because Lou Reed is way too dreary and sees everything in black and white. Lambert thinks undeath needs more colour and being gorgeous. Lou Reed sulks away and Lambert finds a better mentor, Rupaul, who teaches him the powers of Charm, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent.

Lady Gaga and Katy Perry are Lambert's rivals, and they act as recurring feuding partners with Lambert in making the world absolutely fantastic and amazing and delightful in their own special ways. Everyone is always much happier when the three of them appear together. The second act has them joining forces to defeat something terrible and poo poo, like I dunno Creed or Nickelback.

Gaga and Perry are respectively nearly killed by the assistant of a mysterious villain (the assistant being a zombified Johnny Cash), but are afflicted with some dumbass dark disease so Lambert must confront the dull villain to save them. Rupaul reveals a whole new power to Lambert which he harnesses to fly across a rainbow stream to another part of the undead world. He ends up in a cemetry.

Holy poo poo, Lou Reed is the mastermind after all! Lou Reed reveals he was trying to groom Lambert to be the harbinger of doom and gloom and make the world darker etc etc etc and too bad Lambert was too darling to be into that kind of poo poo. Lambert is like, "bitch, please" and with a flick of his little finger destroys Lou Reed's negativity and dresses him up in an Alexander McQueen and some beautiful Jimmy Choos. Lou Reed cries and learns to move on from being so boring.

The movie ends with a gigantic Glee party with Lambert singing alongside Gaga, Perry, and Henry Rollins too, because why not.

Even as a joke this is such an offensively bad idea for a movie in every single way that it hurts my head to imagine it existing.

I quite like most posters for Lars von Trier films, they're often as delightfully twisted as the films themselves.



There is so much innuendo and imagery and allusion in this poster. It's ridiculous.

Note that closing the scissors is impossible without their faces meeting; likewise, it's impossible for their faces to meet without closing the scissors. That's one of the themes of the movie!

I really like this alternate cover for that lovely movie:



Almost makes me want to give the black and white version a try. Almost.

While I love the movie, I love it even more in black and white. It's very much a feature length Twilight Zone episode without the Serling narration.

I've seen it and I'm into the movie when I watch the trailer. I think it's giving me Beetlejuice and Mars Attacks! vibes, which is a good thing. However, those posters are pretty awful and clearly a product of the Alice/Chocolate Factory era Burton.

I doubt Tim Burton cares enough about the movie posters to make sure they perfectly represent his movie.

Well, remember that the poster's don't replace each other, they supplement each other. While some of those posters will make you see Safe, the ones that you hate might make a more reluctant person see it.

Still better than the trailer for Cabin in the Woods. "You think you know the story" ... well, yes, I do, since your trailer gives away the big twist in the movie, you loving morons. I hate it when they do that.

Sure, but then they'll completely misinterpret it and see Heathcliff and Catherine as heroic, exemplary protagonists rather than selfish, destructive assholes. If you're going to miss the point that badly, you might as well not read it in the first place.

Teenagers. :argh:

Interestingly, Heathcliff, Edgar and Catherine have a very similar relationship to Edward, Jacob and Bella. It's worth some further analysis.

i) Why would a bathroom have a separate toilet cubicle.
ii) the cubicle door probably wouldn't close, even without the guy there.
No, my bathroom looks a lot like that. The door's so someone can shower while someone else shits without the showerer being disgusted. However, our door opens outward.

If your bathroom smells on a constant basis, you're doing something wrong.

I don't want to continue this derail, but I feel a need to defend myself. I'm talking about when two people use the bathroom at the same time, one showering and one using the toilet. The enclosed toilet space prevents overlapping odors. Thank you goodnight

That was dissappointing. I love the Great Gastby but the movie (judging by the trailer) seems to be all falsh with little substance. I know that it is Lurmann's style and all but it just feels like a retreading of Moulin Rouge with the plot of Gatsby thrown in there for some reason.
The movie might be good but the trailer doesn't fill me up with any hope. One of the other big problems from what was shown in the trailer is that the Great Gatsby is about the personal. It is narrated by a character that talks about his experiences and what he witnesses. From the look of the trailer it seems that Lurhmann is more interested in the wider picture, so that it looks like the Nick (the narrator) is just another supporting character who doesn't have to be in every scene.

To me it looks like the bombastic city of New York and the totally baller parties in West Egg mirror the way Gatsby attempts to make himself look all cool. Expect a scene of him breaking the gently caress down in a bleak place with little color.

I haven't the slightest clue of what the movie's about, but it catches the eye and it certainly makes me interested in it. It's just a shame that the majority of his movies recently have been pretty lovely.

If you want a film that sticks to the game's canon, watch Resident Evil: Degeneration. It's not terrible and there's a sequel coming out later this year.

Plus it stars Leon, my favourite RE character. :allears:

Actually, it's somehow more terrible than any live action Resident Evils, but check it out anyway because that's a feat.
