Here's the best looking movie of 2007! The webby for best poster goes too...

Dear god by MetiphisLabs	Apr 18th, 2007 07:23:59 PM
It's the holy version of What about Bob.
I sure recognize Krasinski's expression... by Burgundy82	Apr 18th, 2007 07:24:27 PM
It's the same look Jim gives to the camera about 3-4 times per episode...
Lame by superdavit	Apr 18th, 2007 07:25:08 PM
It looks as bad as RV, sans the RV.
Robin Williams..... by LargoJr	Apr 18th, 2007 07:25:56 PM
Squeezing out films faster then Stephen King can pinch off a new novel. Ah what the hell... I still like him. And Mandy Moore IS adorable
I Wonder... by LargoJr	Apr 18th, 2007 07:29:22 PM
...if Mandy is a good Catholic and takes it in the pooper to save her virginity till after marriage?
Robin Williams on a Poster = Flames on Optimus by Mullah Omar	Apr 18th, 2007 07:30:18 PM
I overdosed on Williams' shtick years ago. Seeing him on a poster has the same effect on me as one of those Mister Yuck stickers.
WILLIAMS LOOKS YOUNG by THE KNIGHT	Apr 18th, 2007 07:32:06 PM
Or maybe it's the sidekick...
Not only is it crappy... by quadrupletree	Apr 18th, 2007 07:32:09 PM
But a horrible photoshop job retouching it. Mandy Moore's skin looks like she has leprosy and Jim (from the Office) doesn't look recognizable. I had no idea who he was from the picture...
wacky by supermarch	Apr 18th, 2007 07:33:17 PM
tentpole written all over it kill me
The toilet just called by Bobo_Vision	Apr 18th, 2007 07:33:27 PM
It wants to know when Robin Williams career will arrive. I said soon.
every comedy nowadays has a red title/font by Westonian	Apr 18th, 2007 07:34:07 PM
if i was ever involved with the marketing of a comedy thats one thing I would never do. something besides red font would make it instaintaniously non-cliche
Any poster featuring Mandy Moore's tits... by Lenny Nero	Apr 18th, 2007 07:43:35 PM
...is okay in my book.
Opening weekend gross: $30 million by Garbageman33	Apr 18th, 2007 07:48:45 PM
Why are people SO stupid? Why? Instead of red states and blue states, there should be people that like Robin Williams states and people who want to bludgeon Robin Williams states. Then, the people who want to bludgeon Robin Williams states would totally get all the good movies. Like Smokin' Aces. Oh wait, that was a crime against humanity. Um, let me think about this some more.
Krasinski's expression by INWOsuxRED	Apr 18th, 2007 07:51:59 PM
isn't acting. He knows this movie is going to suck, just like all the rest of us. Nobody even told him they were going to take a picture.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ by jimmy rabbitte	Apr 18th, 2007 08:00:20 PM

Actually, a lot of "Office" castmembers are in this... by Uga	Apr 18th, 2007 08:02:13 PM
No surprise, as Ken Kwapis has directed a number of "Office" eps. So as much as I hate Robin Williams comedies, I'll see this.
So I guess Robin Williams is doing this by TimBenzedrine	Apr 18th, 2007 08:16:49 PM
because Steve Carrel is too big a star.
krasinski gets a feature deal? by HypeEndsHere	Apr 18th, 2007 08:18:55 PM
butter my ass. i've got no fucking chance in this industry.
"goes too"?!? by tonagan	Apr 18th, 2007 08:25:13 PM
(shakes head) However, the gaffe is forgiven since I thought I was the ONLY person who enjoyed "Vibes".
Indeed... by Quintus_Arrius	Apr 18th, 2007 08:27:10 PM
... this will suck... hard...
Mandy Moore = All-Natural Alternative to Cialis by Dr Gregory House	Apr 18th, 2007 08:29:54 PM
Erection-capable for 36 hours. Oh...what's up with Robin Williams cockblocking? Who does he think he is? Chris Hansen?!?!
Looks bad, I guess by BizarroJerry	Apr 18th, 2007 08:38:08 PM
But I'm just happy to see Hollywood out something with a priest who isn't molesting a kid. At least, I think he isn't. And who said "Krasinski gets a feature deal"? He got a part in a movie. Big difference. He's likeable and funny on The Office, why can't he be good in something else? I mean, no one probably is in this flick, but in something else.
Bashing Catholism=Dead Horse by uss cygnus	Apr 18th, 2007 08:40:22 PM
Oh, look. Another film bashing the Catholic faith. Never seen one of those before. How origninal. Is there a mole in the priesthood, too?
Robin Williams is actually good by veritasses	Apr 18th, 2007 08:45:42 PM
when he's not doing the annoying, hyperactive, stream of consciousness, trying-too-hard-to-be-funny schtick. Basically he's good in dramas.
uh.... by HypeEndsHere	Apr 18th, 2007 08:53:36 PM
i said "Krasinski gets a feature deal?". he can be good in something. he's just sort of bland in the American Office. he displays no virtuosity that warrants a film deal. the office is the first thing he's really done. so that's why i'm kind of confused.
Vibes by mr. brownstone	Apr 18th, 2007 08:56:27 PM
how high you must have been to enjoy that. or maybe you were five. I remember watching it on Showtime in 89 and thinking it seemed 3 hours long. ; )
John Krasinski by Anna Valerious	Apr 18th, 2007 08:56:51 PM
He looks so much like Will Kemp...um, anyway...I do enjoy his voiceover work as well, as he played the Gilbert Grape squirrel in an episode of "American Dad" and will be playing Lancelot in "Shrek 3". This...well, I'm a Catholic, and I'm not sure what the movie's going to be like, except I know it's about a wacky priest who gets too involved in an engaged couple's life. It should be less offensive than "Saved"...
Mandy Moore= Hot Chick by teethgnasher	Apr 18th, 2007 09:04:25 PM
Mandy Moore is the shit.
The World According to Crap by ArcadianDS	Apr 18th, 2007 09:05:12 PM
Just a few tiny letters away from blockbuster.
It's got Robin Williams so it's garbage by jimmy_009	Apr 18th, 2007 09:21:16 PM
And that's that.
Kurzinski Valentine by thelivingdoll	Apr 18th, 2007 09:22:05 PM
You said it! From Wedding Crashers to RV to Norbit to EVERY RECENT COMEDY IMAGINABLE! But I don't think funny when I see it. I think sadness.
TOO SOON! by Pageiv	Apr 18th, 2007 09:43:01 PM
What will Pam say, Jim?
It doesn't look like a 90's sitcom poster by JonQuixote	Apr 18th, 2007 09:43:29 PM
It looks like an 80's comedy poster. Like CLASS or THE MONEY PIT or something. Just slide Robin Williams over into Krasinski's slot and put Rodney Dangerfield in the middle and BAM! We know exactly what we're getting.
Krasinski is one lucky bastard... by BackRiverCatfish	Apr 18th, 2007 10:10:27 PM
...he gets to pretend he's banging Mandy Moore in this movie and he gets to bang Rashida Jones in real life!
Sounds absolutely delightful! by GenericGeek	Apr 18th, 2007 10:13:57 PM
And it's directed by Ken Kwapis! Finally, some recognition, whoever he is!
Do you think the family is in a giant sack by Jor-El23	Apr 18th, 2007 10:27:50 PM
...or did they just get shrunk down?
Remember when Robin Williams was funny? by SpyGuy	Apr 18th, 2007 10:48:13 PM
I mean, laugh-out-loud funny, like when he did that special at the Hollywood Bowl and GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM. Now...he's just kinda sad to watch, like any number of fading stars that are past their prime and never evolved as the years wore on. Perhaps Robin has realized this as well, which is why he's blatantly taking on projects for the paycheck instead of holding out for quality material. Until then, unfortunately, we're forced to watch him trot out that tired Jack Nicholson impression in interviews for instantly forgettable projects like this one.
no by Rupee88	Apr 18th, 2007 10:50:28 PM
well maybe he was funny as Mork but that was because I was 10 years old.
Trick question!!!! by TheUglyBaby	Apr 18th, 2007 11:00:57 PM
Robin Williams was NEVER frickin' funny!!!
did he blow all his money on coke? by INWOsuxRED	Apr 18th, 2007 11:19:32 PM
he is in like 8 horrible movies a year, with at least 3 of them being pixar style animation crap. Most people could live off of what he gets paid for one horrible movie a year. Why torture us with so many more??? WHY??????
mmmm.....Mandy Moore....... by Jimmy Jazz	Apr 19th, 2007 12:07:44 AM
Drool.
.... by Carnotaur3	Apr 19th, 2007 12:23:54 AM
He's actually better off making Mrs. Doubtfire 2.
wow by El Borak	Apr 19th, 2007 01:07:01 AM
that's horrible
Mandy Moore is tested VERY high on... by Motoko Kusanagi	Apr 19th, 2007 01:07:55 AM
...the strokability scale
That's some big feet Mr. Williams has by BenBraddock	Apr 19th, 2007 01:40:36 AM
No wonder he's smiling
Kwapis also did the awesome Follow That Bird by Lance Rock	Apr 19th, 2007 01:56:52 AM
which featured the last interesting screen performance by Chevy Chase. Ken did Sesame Street proud!
Dr Gregory House by Horace Cox	Apr 19th, 2007 02:06:04 AM
Dude, that Chris Hansen comment is fucking hilarious! I guarantee that alone will be funnier than ANYTHING this alleged "comedy" will have to offer.
uss cygnus: Check this out! by Some Dude	Apr 19th, 2007 02:20:57 AM
The number of negative portrayals of priests in films/TV is far less than the number of actual creepy molester priests in real life. In other words, Hollywood has a lot of catching up to do before you are allowed to cry. That said, this does look like a shitty movie.
Calm down Quint by Freakjuice89	Apr 19th, 2007 03:01:35 AM
Maybe this film wont be a comedy classic, but bashing it based on it's poster? You should know that a movie's marketing and the actual film are two different things. I'm sick and tired of the Robin Williams bashing. Lets face it. The man is talented, won an oscar, made some of the funniest films and stand up routines in the last 30 years, yet will NEVER get respect. There's more to life than picking on a SUCCESSFUL comedian.
RIP Robin Williams, Eddie Murphy, Steve Martin by Hideo Kojima	Apr 19th, 2007 03:06:50 AM
All three were at one point on the cutting edge of comedy and now they are just hollow men cashing the next paycheck.
VIBES by darwinwins	Apr 19th, 2007 03:21:42 AM

Damn you Michael Bay
Give me dramatic Williams over comedic Williams any day by Mullah Omar	Apr 19th, 2007 03:38:10 AM
The guy clearly has talent, but I can't recall the last time he managed to harness it for one of his so-called comedies. It would be hard to imagine writing this a few decades back, but . . . Robin Williams needs to stick to dramatic roles.
Give me a Tabasco enema over any Robin Williams any day by BannedOnTheRun	Apr 19th, 2007 03:48:38 AM
Imagine no Robin Williams. It's easy if you try.

Hey Mori! I remember seeing Vibes in the movie theater by The Ghost of Marcus Brody	Apr 19th, 2007 04:28:32 AM
I think it was a double feature with Firewalker starring Chuck Norris and Lou Gossett Jr. and you're right, Vibes is awesome.
Still waiting on Mork movie by Dazzler69	Apr 19th, 2007 06:48:36 AM
I think Robin is still funny. He just needs better choices, just like Jim Carey.
rip off by wengweng	Apr 19th, 2007 07:39:12 AM
this looks like the poster for this: http://www.apple.com/trailers/ independent/sleepingdogslie/
Robin has so much potential by majortom25	Apr 19th, 2007 07:40:00 AM
As an actor hes pretty good but why does he chose all these bad movies? HE was awesome in that movie where he was a photo clerk . I am just so depressed that he choses all these bad movies.
Caught Williams' stand-up a few years back... by Blanket-Man	Apr 19th, 2007 09:00:37 AM
And I've never laughed so hard at a live performance - and I'm not even an RW fan, really. Back in the late 1970s, I was firmly in the Steve Martin camp in the Today's Funniest Comic debate. Hard to believe the crap they both put out on the big screen nowadays, though.
Why can't movie posters by Black And Gold	Apr 19th, 2007 09:09:11 AM
line up the actors names with the pictures of the actors? I mean, does Robin Williams' name REALLY need to come first? Is he that arrogant? Are we that stupid to not recognize him? I find it so annoying for some reason. Meh. Mandy Moore is my dreamgirl.
Mandy looks more 'Ned and Stacy' era Debra Messing by Pound Sand	Apr 19th, 2007 09:43:54 AM

And that's saying a lot since it came out the same year as Superman Returns and Running With Scissors!
Robin Williams Dumber Than A 5th Grader by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Apr 19th, 2007 10:57:44 AM

FONT AND COLOR by AdrianVeidt	Apr 19th, 2007 12:22:38 PM
Can someone explain to me why nearly every comedy has big, capital red letters on white background? (scary movie, not another teen movie, wedding crashers, etc., etc. etc.) Is it a studio thing?
It only hurts when he talks... by Death Sticks	Apr 19th, 2007 12:46:27 PM
Robin Williams has been doing that same painfully tired, cliched "southern evangalist/preacher" bit for over 30 years now... do we really NEED to see an entire film's worth of it? When will studios stop putting him in movies and just let him go and die peacefully on the next version of "Hollywood Squares"?
Bet Mandys lips are better to look at by Chiziola79	Apr 19th, 2007 12:49:31 PM

I love it when... by MrTrilby	Apr 19th, 2007 01:13:28 PM
...the position of the actors' names doesn't correspond with where they are in the picture. I know why. But it's still funny.
AdrianVeidt - Re: Font and Colour by Spandau Belly	Apr 19th, 2007 01:20:28 PM
The establishment of packaging conventions helps idiots quickly navigate through the three films that Blockbuster has on the new release wall. All comedies are white background with puffy red lettering and the actors making exagerated and radically different facial expressions. IE one person person looking extremely happy and another looking really fed up. (see above poster) Action movies always feature a black background and a scowling man with an explosion and frequetly a woman looking pained. Any movie that has a poster that looks different from conventions will not attract as many people to pick up the box or debate going into the cinema and seeing it. All they'll think is "ewwww... that looks foriegn". Conventional posters also help warn smart people that the movie also will be conventional.
more fun with poster conventions! by Spandau Belly	Apr 19th, 2007 01:39:11 PM
All historial epics must have clouds parting and a clear shot of a sword to warn audiences that this film will not contain any pistols or sports cars.

Both Robin Williams and Steve Martin by Sepulchrave	Apr 20th, 2007 04:06:29 PM
