Posterplex

It's been a good week for posters, but apparently none of you care. If box office numbers are to be believed, people have stopped caring about movies. Maybe I should transition this column into being about nothing but DVD covers. How depressing.

Well, you go ahead and cozy up with your cheaply packaged DVDs, there's nothing like walking into a movie theater and seeing a kick ass promotional poster. You can't get that kind of movie geek buzz by sitting at home next to your Wal-Mart purchased home theater.

This time I've intentionally avoided the temptation to contrast Sky High posters with Fantastic Four posters. Why? Because no one really cares about Sky High, so what's the deal with everyone covering it? Seriously, that movie looks horrible and the posters are no better. Kurt Douglas can do better. You won't find those Sky High character posters here, but you will find plenty of others.

I understand what The Human Torch is doing high up in the sky, but how does invisibility translate into the power of flight?

I'll face the fear, if it means a seat next to Rachel McAdams.

Nothing like a blank wall to catch your eye... whoops your arm's off.

Which one is the dog again?

Bad Santa 2: Santa teaches little league. Pink elephants for everyone!

Kevin eats soccer hooligans. All of them.

Posters that also perform a public service. A guide to getting free drinks!
