Dissapointed Owl posted:It sort of looks like they were compelled to ape the Braveheart blu-ray cover for some reason. Which, incidentally, is not bad by any means, and pretty accurately reflects "this is a movie about William Wallace" without throwing unnecessary crap in. But it's hard to see any reason to deviate from the well-known DVD/VHS box art: It might be just a tad on the cheesy side, but it's one of the better examples of the "main character + floating stuff and some fire" trope. Everything is well-placed.

kiimo posted:I know everyone hates floating heads for some reason but there is nothing wrong with this Blu-ray cover. If it's still the same movie and there was nothing wrong with the original cover, I see no need to create a new one. The only logic behind it seems to be "argh, this old thing will never sell the way it is, we need something more hip and current!" which of course is the archetypal bad-reason-to-do-a-thing in any artistic endeavor. Naturally this is all the more annoying when you're of the opinion that the new one is worse, and I'd say it is. The original cover looks like one coherent and well-composed image that shows a bunch of stuff related to the movie, whereas the new one looks like a bunch of images slapped together. It's not the worst thing ever, it's just... worse. EDIT: The one that was just posted above is much more acceptable, even if it's still arguably unnecessary.

Man that Avengers poster is weird. The whole thing is stylized enough where you'd think they could just go crazy with the contrast and HDR on everyone and have them all come out looking roughly uniform, but somehow it still has that copy-and-paste effect. And as for the sizes of the characters... I don't even know where to begin. Dissapointed Owl posted:If I remember correctly, there wasn't much RAH RAH AMERICA at all. 'Captain America' was a pathetic propaganda pawn for buying bonds, his powers came from a foreign scientist and his team consisted of several different ethnicities and nationalities. But if you aren't seeing the movie in the first place, all you know about it is the phrase "Captain America" and that probably gives off enough of a "this movie isn't for me" vibe on its own.

demolina posted:What are people's reasons for not liking the minimalist Jurassic Park poster? I'm really taken by it and wondered what the main issues with it were. It kinda feels like somebody took the actual Jurassic Park logo, then arbitrarily said "this needs to look about 34% more hipsterish". I don't have a raging vendetta against that aesthetic like some people do, but it's just so unnecessary here. Just the original logo on a black background would be better in every way. The E.T. one is good, but I don't like the color scheme. It seems unnecessarily bleak and doesn't capture the magical feel of the movie at all. Needs more blue.

Physical posted:I just hope she is good in it. Her voice acting on the Simpsons episode was kind of lame and I'm not sure whose fault that was. Aside from possible qualms with the quality of the writing, Simpsons-style guest voices are always hit-or-miss because voice acting is very different from regular acting, and the talent only occasionally crosses over. Especially for someone like Lady Gaga who probably wouldn't even consider herself to be a "real" actor. Most of the legitimately good Simpsons guest voices have been legitimately great actors who figured out how to adapt to the medium.

It was such a wasted opportunity creating an entirely separate character with an entirely separate revenge plot to become Venom, instead of just using Harry. But apparently it was just THAT important to have Of course, that would have pissed off comic book fans because Harry probably never becomes Venom in a comic. Just one more way that movie was spoiled by trying to please too many different people.

computer parts posted:Man of Steel, at least in some of the beginning. The entire last hour, if not more, was fighting. Entire scenes could easily have been dropped from that portion, such as the redundant battle with two minions who were basically just weaker and more forgettable clones of the main villain. Or the weird little Daily Planet side story that served no purpose other than to awkwardly evoke 9/11.

For real though, I'm never too shocked by "whitewashing" in Hollywood movies because I realize that certain market realities exist and big-budget movies are probably never going to buck the trend... but SIGOURNEY WEAVER, seriously?!

Meatwave posted:I've got to single this one out for being especially bad. At least other minimalist posters concentrate on some sort of key object that's unique to the film. This is four lovely circles. But you see, it's "minimalist" because you can recognize what movie it is just from the use of four circles... that happen to be wearing colored ninja headbands. It looks like the beginnings of a South Park / TMNT crossover.

"Live, Die, Repeat" would've been a good title because it tells you exactly what the movie's about and is, at the very least, just as catchy and memorable as "Edge Of Tomorrow". "All You Need Is Kill" is amusing in its quirky way, but I feel like that could've gone the way of "Snakes On A Plane", where the internet loves it but it doesn't translate into actual success.

Charlie at least had amazing sets and some pretty good Danny Elfman musical numbers to back it up. And it still got the essence of the story right. Its main flaw was not having Gene Wilder. But Alice was just a big greenscreen nightmare that turned a well-known, beloved, unique story into something indistinguishable from any other fantasy movie. This new thing looks good though!

Perestroika posted:Honestly, if they wanted to make a good Hitman move, all they need to do is remake John Wick with a bald guy in the lead. Coincidentally, "a bald guy" appears to be literally the only criterion the casting director used to select the lead actor for either of these movies.

90% of making a passable Hitman movie is the casting. Get someone who looks good as a bald guy in a suit killing people, and you've got a movie. Not a great one, but still something. But somehow they keep failing at that one basic thing. Never mind that, though. Watch this helicopter explode!

I think it's zoomed in just far enough to make it somewhat unclear if it's a chef outfit or just a white shirt. The color palette also definitely screams "fashion ad". Whether there's a reason for all this, I don't know.

Every attempt at a Hitman movie somehow commits the same fundamental, but easily avoidable, sin: they pick a random actor and make him bald instead of actually picking a threatening-looking bald guy. He doesn't even have to be a good actor he just has to be good at being bald. How do they not get this.
