And according to the site where I found this:


It actually does a great job in making me ignore the movie. The poster is too 'epic action' generic for me.
I like the "poster within a poster" part, but the weapon behind the back is pretty overused.

I'm kind of wondering which poster you're looking at, because the bow is not behind her back.
You're right, I'm not going to debate semantics, but it still looks like these.

Also, I can't help but see the red olive branches of the Battle Royale logo on the ground in front of her.

So I work in a DVD rental shop and Cass has absolutely one of the worst covers there. The people renting this must have googled the movie beforehand because I refuse to believe anyone would rent this based on the cover only.


Cass, no!! The leading angry mobs thing has got to stop!

I don't see what's good about this poster. It looks like a bad Photoshop job, granted, it's not the usual bad Photoshop job, but it's still bad. Filter upon filter with no sense of layout.
I like it because it looks like Corman's House of Usher.

What is going on with this one? It looks like comic sans and really breaks the mood.
Technically it is a comic book though.

There is nothing wrong with this poster. Every constituent just says

Much like a blowfish inflates itself to scare away predators, the cover to "Legend of the Sea" does a wonderful job scaring off adults and children alike (Though studies have shown that the sight of Rob Schneider's name is actually a stronger deterrent than a set of sharpened spines).



I personally love the lossy compression on the main character of the film, compared to the crisp secondary characters he shares the box with. The only other thing as pixelated as him seems to be the background.
Haha the scariest part is definitely the ROB SCHNEIDER

As a Christian, I can say that there has NEVER been a watchable "Faith-based" film. The worst being Fireproof. A lot of good that did, seeing as how my wife cheated on me and left me :smith:
What about faith-included? I liked Secret Sunshine and Amazing Grace, although faith is only a part of the story. Higher Ground looks pretty decent (haven't seen it yet though). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8y7edoPgX8

This was a fairly bad movie, but the poster does a nice job of hiding that fact.


And here's the cover it got for VHS release.

For comparison, Benny and Joon. Quirky and wacky back when it was fresh, and well done, too.
It wasn't 100% fresh, considering he was using comedy routines from the 1920s. :colbert:

Forgive my ignorance, but is this a sequel to Sukiyaki Western Django or something because I know Tarantino had a part in that movie. Or is Django just a general term?
Django is an early and well-known spaghetti western that spawned numerous unofficial "sequels." Sukiyaki Western Django is a loose remake of Fistful of Dollars, and the title of the film is just a pun. Django Unchained has nothing to do with any of that stuff, much like Inglourious Basterds has nothing to do with Inglorious Bastards.

He means the trope of the villain getting caught, and it turns out getting captured was a vital part of his plan (whereupon he hacks the gibson/makes a masterful escape). Bonus trope points if the good guy's leader pitches a hissy fit saying "he did this RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES", or if the good guys were dumb enough to put some vital macguffin in the same building as the supervillian.
Like Avengers, Dark Knight Rises, and Skyfall?
