It depresses me that films like The 400 Blows get into the Criterion Collection but Cobra and RoboCop don't. The system is broken. vvv Wait a minute, I knew that, the hell was I thinking? I have the drat thing on DVD somewhere. Slim Killington fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Jan 18, 2013 |

That's because it's actually two posters and they couldn't make up their mind which to keep, so we get a top with no bottom and a bottom with no top. Throw the text in the middle, no one will notice!

I don't care how old a film is, there's no excuse for promoting the format with typeface that's almost the same size as the title. That's just tacky. But I guess that's acceptable seeing as how this is a 3D release for literally the gayest film ever made.

I actually had to look for Steve Carrell when the original poster was put up, I thought he wasn't on it.

Tewratomeh posted:I like the idea of what they're doing with the film, but calling it "World War Z" at this point, with the direction they've taken it, is meaningless. I'm worried about this, but for different reasons than you I think. The novel is a telling of how numerous countries dealt with the growing problem and it provided what was, at the time, a unique take on the genre: zombie apocalypse in a different country. That I think is the most interesting thing about the novel, experiencing what's happening in Russia and Israel and China and so on. I feel that the movie is going to be almost entirely centered around the United States and Brad Pitt's family there, with the other countries relegated to "updates" via news clips and things to that effect. That will entirely miss the concept of the novel, and I'm banking on that happening.

It's a good still. The still conveys the mood and feeling you're talking about. The still is a tiny part of the poster, which is a horrible total product. Yes there's a great still in it, but the poster itself still has two feet of black space and poor typeface and layout management. It is a beautiful still, yes, in the middle of a poo poo poster. Dropping even the best imagery straight out of the film into the middle of a black sheet is about the laziest thing a human being can do. That poster took all of four minutes to design. A film that is that memorable deserves a hell of a lot more effort.

FauxGateau posted:My favorite movie art would be them literally cropping a scene from the movie. If this means Aguirre, that frame in some format is literally the only thing posters of the movie have ever been made of. They're all just that picture. Also thanks thread for bringing this movie up, I thought after suffering through it the last time I'd never have to see it again.

penismightier posted:For a pretty good forums poster, you have horrendous taste. Aguirre is one of a handful of classic "you must like this" cinema that I just can't take. I recognize its merit and even celebrate its achievement, but it is absolutely insufferable from end to end. I feel everyone's allowed to have bad films as guilty pleasures, as well as a few classics they're allowed to hate.

I'm getting a big Gilbert Grape vibe off of Leo in that, which is helping me imagine this film as a successor to it. vvv I hate the Catching Fire poster. It's the boring, safe approach to that film and it lacks any sort of heart whatsoever. It's literally a picture of her face with the film title because that's all it needs to be to put asses in seats. Anything would have been better than that. Maybe I'm just grumpy from having it stare me in the face every time my train stops. Slim Killington fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Dec 3, 2013 |
