Liar posted:Has this cartoonish mockery of a poster made it in the thread yet? It was in the last thread, think the consensus was it is a great poster for a video game, okay poster for a movie, and worst tagline of a real movie this year. Just screams calculated and formulaic.

Wasn't the ME262A the first jet if I remember correctly? Are we to believe he is chasing down a jet with a prop plane? I don't really know planes but that seems silly.

Then I tried to describe it to my boss and when I said the words outloud "It's the title Shame spelled out on a girl's back in cum" I realized that this poster is pretty much filth.

Here's what it is, when you stop making profitable and quality sequels you reboot. That's the new blueprint. See Batman, Spiderman, X-Men, Superman (getting a new reboot next year). I predict a Punisher reboot and a Spawn reboot next.

I always thought Henry Rollins should have been cast as the Punisher. He's too old now though. Anyway, Spawn is only a "Will Smith is interested" away from getting greenlit. Spawn is horrible by the way and any film would be horrible. I'm just saying.

Wolverine was a reboot of sorts and first class was a reboot since Wolverine disappointed. I mean I liked it. But yeah X Men 3 (read: Brett Ratner) caused that. I didn't see X Men 3 and I didn't see Spiderman 3 which I felt was in my best interest. I saw Superman Returns but I guess he didn't Superman Return. I have this amazing plan I just made up to reboot Crow. It stars Adam Levine as the Crow and Christina Aguilera plays herself as the villain. They both do Joy Division covers involving dubstep. Katie Perry plays an extra terrestrial with a heart of gold but Russel Brand's part ends up on the cutting room floor based on focus group approval rating of 13%. Somebody kill me I'm through the looking glass.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Whoops, sorry, missed that the lamb was actually called Judah. That's just confusing as hell. The lamb is still Jesus though, right? Pretty sure the story is going to be about the lamb was set up to be sacrificed but because of Jesus' sacrifice he doesn't need to be. As in the practice of sacrificing a lamb for Passover being replaced by Jesus in Christian theology. edit: please post that horse face some more, not being sarcastic. Also that creepy female dragon is wearing a sportsbra I think.

Desperado Bones posted:The first poster makes it look like a drama,probably the dog dies, or is injured, or they have to put it down, you know what I'm talking about*. Second one like it's a funny movie about a dog doing wacky things during the war, with lots of fart jokes. I haven't seen it either but if you don't cry when they have to saw off the dog's leg to keep gangrene from spreading well you just have no soul. It is pretty funny seeing him trying to load his gun with paws, especially since someone is charging him. I won't spoil what happens.

Haha I was thinking about this last night after I recommended it. I was thinking, you know, I haven't actually SEEN the Crow since I was 17 in 1994. I wonder if I should have been so hasty? Still stand by the soundtrack though.

Dissapointed Owl posted:No, you're right Warner Brothers. That's way too classy. I know everyone hates floating heads for some reason but there is nothing wrong with this Blu-ray cover. Why do people want to keep using the same old design when you can create new ones? I like showing the other two stars in this. By the way, it is MGM not Warner Bros.

It might be distributed internationally by Warner Bros. since, you know, MGM is out-sourcing most of that poo poo since they are a failed piece of poo poo studio with no money and only a library to sustain them (I used to work for them), in fact most of their domestic distribution is done by Fox. But that doesn't mean the WB creatives designed their Blu-ray cover. I actually don't know for sure, that is a different building altogether but I'm pretty sure WB didn't have anything to do with that. You are right though, that is a better, more cinematic cover. Sir Lemming posted:I see no need to create a new one. For international they might have an agenda like, showing a Native American's face and a woman's face rather than just having Kevin Costner's (fading) brand carry it alone. I'm sure there is a lot of research to support the decision, and I'm not even saying it is the right decision. I still like it.

Sir Lemming posted: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. I have bad news for you in regards to "artistic endeavors" vs. "movie marketing" This is an artistic endeavor:  This is bait in order to sell you on an idea for the purpose of making money.

Dissapointed Owl posted:There's plenty of examples of movies that manage to achieve both those goals. Just because there's a distinction doesn't mean we can't call out lazy crap when we see it. That's totally fine, and most of the creatives at least on the major studio side try their very best to generate quality. But the question was why when you have a perfectly good cover would you make a new one, I'm just trying to answer that question. Dissapointed Owl posted:Opinions about the cover itself aside, I think I can blame the actual publisher (ie Warner Bros.) for the cover with which they release their movie, thanks. Let's not confuse publisher and distributor. Like I said I don't know for sure who did this but this is an MGM library film distributed by WB. Usually that means the studio who owns the film would determine their own marketing strategy, all WB would do is send it through their established channels to physically get the disc over-seas. But like I said I don't know for sure because MGM might have fired everybody capable of creating a cover at this point, they've practically fired everybody else. kiimo fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Feb 16, 2012 |

Dissapointed Owl posted:Well, that would mean I jumped the gun and came across like a jerk. So. Yeah. Not at all, hope I didn't. Incidentally, I was just thinking how people in advertising might convince themselves that what they are creating is art. It occurred to me what Vincent Van Gogh might think if he was alive and saw that Midnight in Paris poster. I'm thinking suicide bombing.
