If anyone is reading this, this is my first blog EVER! (Drumroll please). Here I will be talking about my daily life and what random thoughts pop into my brain (usually film,DVD or music related).
My first thought is thus, crap UK movie posters. Having recently left a job at a cinema, I saw my fair share of crap and uninspired movie posters. The most recent one that I have seen since leaving the cinema is for the new (much hyped) JUNO. The film has been recieving critical acclaim across the pond and has been dubbed the new LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE. A lofty call and one I will review when it arrives here early February. Having recently purchased my new Total Film magazine, it has a new poster on the back cover, and how bland it is! It has the main characters standing still and two colours in the piece, one blue (I guess representing the sky) and green for the grass. How old do film companies think we are?! At least have some initiciative and do something different and be able to market the film. The classic 80's films (which I will always harp on about, please forgive me!) had some amazing posters. Examples I hear you cry, INDIANA JONES TRILOGY, EMPIRE STRIKES BACK,RETURN OF THE JEDI, BLADERUNNER,THE GOONIES. They had proper posters, not something lazy hacked together on Phontoshop 1.0. Get some initiative Hollywood and make some decent posters!
Catch you on the flipside
