Movie posters that make you want to kill everyone on them

Display here the movie posters that, instead of making you want to watch a film, make you wish everyone in the film would die a horrible death, like this one:

even the exploited women? shame on you

lock thread - it gets no better worse

this thread will have so many better responses than that one, very very shortly

I guess the 'exploited women' are actually two very well-paid actresses glamourising the exploitation of women so I guess perhaps they can die too

just can't rouse myself to get all that enraged about the poster - doesn't seem smug enough for that

Nie wieder Sex mit der Ex

is this the german title for forgetting sarah marshall? because I love this title. "No more sex with the ex".

'Maennertrip' is certainly better than 'Get Him To The Greek'.

took me a couple of seconds to work out what that film was called. IIIRIIIEIIID?

I don't want to kill them but I feel incredibly bad for everyone involved. It's this year's The Room or Snakes on a Plane.

yeah that movie sucked.

SB for wanting to kill Morgan Freeman.

What's with the kid in the ball?

You're talking about "Unstoppable"? Weird. I thought it was pretty straightforward, inoffensive, workmanlike, occasionally bland but mostly serviceable thriller. Not at all like those other movies.

Though Whoopi Goldberg had made a verbal agreement to star in the film in 1993, she attempted to back out. Abramson filed a US$20 million lawsuit against Goldberg, which they settled very quickly. Goldberg agreed to star in the film for $7 million,[2] $2 million more than the originally agreed-upon amount.[6]

Jesus, she was making 7 million a picture in 93? Sister Act must've been bigger than I remembered

Pillbox atm. Any movie poster that says 'look how many omgfamous people we jammed into this movie omg' can get fucked.

Pillbox also otm

Hey, I have a great idea! Let's put together the ultimate big-budget romcom w/ ALL the actors from ALL the other romcoms & we can lead a massive marketing blitz into a Valentine's Day release. Sounds great, right? Totally sure-fire. Well just wait for the kicker: This movie will actually be titled Valentine's Day. Honestly, how could we lose?

valentine's day fabulously otm

Also, this movie looks so offensive/stupid. "It turns out being gay was really expensive.... so I became a con artist." Awesome logic there, Jim Carrey!

All posters that trade off the star power of ONE PERSON and indicate NOTHING AT ALL about the film, e.g.

http://thisdistractedglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/Vanilla%20Sky%20poster.jpg

http://www.dvdinfo.ch/movies/K/KI/kid/the-kid-10.jpg

This last one shits me more than any movie poster on the planet, mainly because (as per the title) it's about a kid and not Bruce fucking Willis.

Also that twattish face he is pulling leads to urges that run dangerously close to the sentiment of the thread title.

http://www.posters.ws/images/862514/tomcats_video_release.jpg

The other thing that makes me want to kill everyone about most movie posters is the shithouse photoshop jobs on them. Gah!

http://www.moviepostershop.com/peters-friends-movie-poster-1020370137.jpg

<3 some of these folk but they are doing themselves no favours here

How did anybody think this is a good look?

http://www.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Dilemma-movie-poster.jpg

OMG. OMG. This is all over the subways and everywhere and it sends my o/h into a fit of depression and/or rage every time he sees it. Me too, although I don't use the subways as much. Ugh.

imo main dilemma is how did vince vaughn get so ugly so quickly

really loathe the spate of movies that have really generic, simple, all-embracing titles that lay claim to an entire concept - you just know that the movie is a hollow, pandering shell in which that concept will receive a really un-nuanced, corporate-friendly, nuclear-family-affirming moneyspinning shiteating parade of you-knew-what-was-going-to-happen-and-bought-the-ticket-anyway

blow them all into space. they suck and they think you're stupid. be less stupid.

Yeah, somehow. I must ask though - what have you seen lately though that's inspired this little rant?

god so many posters look exactly like that Tomcats one.

hmmm should I see this movie... oh shit Horatio Sanz AND Jake Busey?!!?!?

I don't mean a concept like 'Vertigo' or 'The Conformist' btw, I mean a concept that is a situation, usually with sexual undertones, that is common contemporary parlance and not an age-old, much-nuanced facet of human thinking, hence can be neatly 'summarised'.

the rebound. date night. the hangover (ok I lolled a couple of times, even as my soul escaped my mouth). the back-up plan.

maybe these terms deserve those movies, on second thought

n.b. not seen, just seen loathsome grinning posters

They should get Herzog or somebody to re-title these tube poster romantic comedies...Nights of Unholy Torpor: Port of Call Blackpool.

Not a movie, but:

Although I'll take the dolphin shitfest over seeing this smug fuck's face plastered at every train station. That was a rough few months.

http://www.wildaboutmovies.com/images_2/ClickMoviePoster.jpg

look closely you'll notie that the dolphin has an equally smug expression on its face

omg

Ugh, all those Zooey pics make me grind my teeth.

I love that hyper-crinkly illustrated Cosby.

Don't want to kill the cast of this one. But if they ever made the sequel Comic Sans........

new year, new adam sandler poster to loathe!

http://i.huffpost.com/gen/359341/JACK-AND-JILL.jpg

now that adam sandler has settled into being a boring shlub, it's great they found a new way to unleash the shrill hellbeast within - and feminize it to boot!

why does Sandler even bother to make movies any more

OK, mostly just want to kill Judd Nelson

I am a very nice person but if I ever meet Adam Sandler I am going to punch him right in his stupid, smug face.

Careful, Dr Morbius, I'm in that movie!

It supposedly takes place in Georgetown University in Washington DC, but apparently they wouldn't let the film crew shoot there, so instead they filmed part of it at the U of Maryland where I was a student and pretended it was Georgetown in the movie. One day I was walking across campus and ran into several people with big movie cameras on tripods who stopped anyone from walking across the field if their shirts had an advertisment on them. Mine didn't, so they let me pass. I had no idea what film they were making.

About a year later, the movie was released and a couple of people swore they saw me walking by with my backpack on in one scene. I watched it on VHS but didn't see myself anywhere. Many years later I learned I'm visible only in the widescreen version that was shown in theaters but chopped off of home videos of the era to fill a 4:3 tv screen.

pan and scan casualty, so sad

http://meansheets.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/1987-leonard-part-6-movie-poster1.jpg?w=450

this is so perfectly wrong

http://www.moviegoods.com/Assets/product_images/1020/233279.1020.A.jpg

hahaha wait isn't that saving silverman

yeah but they changed the title overseas

another fun Steve Zahn title-changing fact: Joyride was called Roadkill in the UK.

I think a general litmus test is to see how movie posters hold up after eliminating all references to the movie in question. Allow me to demonstrate:

http://soupofturtles.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/bill.png?w=449&h=606

^^ could've told me that was an original painting for sale on etsy and i would've believed it.

i don't know a thing about the movie, but joe don baker getting third billing suggests great things.

http://www.filmofilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Whats-Your-Number_p3.jpg

Just die.

Apparently this movie is in some countries called "Sex List".

The whole premise of that movie is so stupid.

I could care less if my prospective new gf had 19 sexual partners before me. I would, however, find it creepy that she's keeping count.....

so instead they filmed part of it at the U of Maryland where I was a student and pretended it was Georgetown in the movie.

Haha, wow, College Park looks SO much like Georgetown! Not as bad as the surprise Georgetown Metro stop in "No Way Out," but yeesh.

"I think a general litmus test is to see how movie posters hold up after eliminating all references to the movie in question. Allow me to demonstrate:"

MOAR!

That Leonard Part 6 poster is so epic.

fuck you movie poster there's nothing funny about Dane

"Friends don't let friends date psycho women from hell"

wow.

http://img.movieberry.com/static/photos/15086/poster.jpg

I don't think a picture of Dane Cook exists that makes people not want to kill him.

I sort of meant this as a call to arms for ILXors everywhere to start contributing examples by the bucketload. So c'mon people!

> Haha, wow, College Park looks SO much like Georgetown! Not as bad as the surprise Georgetown Metro stop in "No Way Out," but yeesh.

Indeed. Whenever UMD students watch St. Elmo's Fire, they invariably can't help but laugh every time they try to pass off College Park as Georgetown....

also Jessica Alba is apparently taller than Dane Cook? god what a terrible photoshop

Sarah take 2 steps forward, please!

for the uninitiated..

LEONARD PART SIX

what the hell is going on with affleck's face here
http://s3.discshop.se/img/front_large/93243/the_company_men.jpg

That is a photoshop of horrors. Tommy Lee's face looks stretched or flattened out in a weird way too.

I don't even hate Ed Helms but that is such a dickish poster

That was an okay film, the poster isn't really representative of it at all. (It seems to be implying some kind of Todd Solondz-style ironic and detached take on the subject, when the actual movie is pretty good-natured and sweet.)
