Well actually, it’s two posters and a banner, though the banner is basically four regular character posters jammed together, so I’m technically not wrong!
But seriously, MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL, your trailers have been pretty damn awesome, but I’m not so sure about your non-moving promo materials. And double seriously: Can we please call a moratorium on these flying f*cking sparks and dirt and debris we keep getting in our posters? The idea isn’t bad, but like everything Hollywood does, it gets run into the ground.
Speaking of being run into the ground: UNDERWORLD: AWAKENING! As retarded as I personally feel this series is, it really shouldn’t be hard to make a poster that sells sex and firepower. It’s Kate Beckinsale in tight leather wielding guns, for goodness sake! But of course, through the curse that is Photoshop, even that simple concept has been killed here. AND DAMMIT THOSE F*CKING SPARKS ARGH!
Yet, neither of those posters hold a candle to the sadness of JOURNEY 2‘s new one sheet. It’s not that it’s a particularly bad poster (it’s silly and dumb, which is probably selling the movie perfectly), but it’s that it has the The Rock front and center giving you this wide-eyed, almost embarrassed look. Like a struggling alcoholic who just couldn’t stay on the action-movie wagon.
Oh, Dwayne. We’re only upset because we love you!
