Yeah... that Harry Potter poster is slick, but OCTOBUTT-NUMB-A-THON's Poster is The Bomb... er.. Bond.. er AMAZING!!!

Published at:  Nov 16, 2006 5:49:18 AM CST

Hey Folks, Harry here... Got a treat for you. Tired of photographic posters? Want something to make the heart pitter patter? Well, here's a poster that feels almost custom made for me. Heh. That's right, the final poster art for OCTOBUTT-NUMB-A-THON is here.

Crafted by the blistered animating paws of Cartuna (D. Campbell MacKinlay) comes this year's Event poster. Obviously inspired by James Bond, the number 8 - meaning OCT - thus OCTOPUSSY, but with butts. Ah... Genius. The geek mind is really as complicated as that puzzle John Lithgow gives that kid in THE MANHATTAN PROJECT.

The Poster - if you notice from the shape - is BRITISH QUAD shaped, in honor of that from which we draw inspiration. You see... Bond was British. Yes, this will be printed 30x40, thus making it exceptionally difficult to find a frame ready made in the U.S. of A. Sigh. Click on the poster for a bigger image:











Progress report on BNAT? I'm nearly done with the programming. Tally at this point is 7 new 4 old & lots of guests.

    Yeah, I want to know what I think too. However, the studio set up a screening in Austin last week and gave me 30 minutes notice, and I was in a meeting at the time. I'm dying to see CASINO ROYALE - so much so, that there's a press screening tomorrow night at the second shittiest theater in Austin - and I just point blank refuse to see it there - so I'll see it at the Alamo Village at midnight. That'll be a cool screening to see BOND at.

    oh, i guess that is a good reason

    by antonphd

    i was worried you guys didn't like it and didn't want to say anything because you thought Daniel Craig and the old/new approach has merit worth another go and that you didn't want to write a review that while fair might inadvertantly create bad word of mouth enought that it might overly effect turnout which could hurt the chance for... another chance at this kind of Bond. hey. i'm one of those people who saw Layer Cake and instantly thought 'now this guy could be a cool James Bond'. i'm rooting for him to knock it out of the park. but i'm nervous, cause i want my Bond Begins movie with Daniel Craig to be awesome.

    by keepcoolbutcare

    and the yellow pumps with pink strappy thingy that goes between the hallux and pointer toe (is there some kind of proper anatomical term for that particular area?) make that poster a winner. Nice work Cartuna.


    but where's Capone? Or are we to be blessed (cursed?) with a Herc cameo?

    Favorite part is definitely Father Geek on the jet pack. Somehow it's like a natural thought I've always had.

    So, so close to the deleted character from Kill Bill that snorts the magic cocaine.

    Herc is on the poster...

    by dr. butthole

    ... but not listed as a star. Hmmm...

    Has there ever been a real picture of Yoko on the site? You share a lot of your life on here and I would understand completely if you wouldn't put her photo here. I just want to see if she has bleeding eyes and a jasmine dress in real life. Er... uh... never mind...

    Merrick is not on the poster?

    by amazing inframan

    Poor Merrick. Maybe his nasty ass avatar was too much for artwork meant for public distribution? Or, maybe they just forgot the bastard.

    alamo is the only place to see it. i tried to finally see borat last night and it was sold out at the village. granted i had been drinking at a bar and lost track of time but still. oh and whats the worst theatre in austin? gateway 16 or cinemark pflugerville? i say gateway due to its lack of leg space and shitty not quite stadium seating

    have fun giving each other reach arounds nerds

    by wolvenom

    Be a site to see for sure... watching all you sexless nerds spill over on the seats next to you groaning, smelling of dirty socks, and stroking each others lightsabres. Going to have to spray that theatre down with a hose afterwards. Just make sure you call your parents to pick you up at the right time when its done. Remember harry dont estimate on different size t-shirts to hand out. Just make them all xtra xtra xtra larges and you'll be fine.
