SOUTHLAND TALES gets a nifty final poster!!!

Wasn't this thing supposed to be set in the future? by Beldo84	Sep 12th, 2007 12:50:46 AM
And I guess it was when it was originally made...
SMG will always be Kendall Hart from 'All My Children'! by Boomers_Lips	Sep 12th, 2007 12:51:52 AM
she needs to go back to that show ASAP!
Really like it. by Khrono	Sep 12th, 2007 12:52:38 AM
Been rooting for this picture for a long time.
Like it too by SpencerTrilby	Sep 12th, 2007 12:59:25 AM
can't wait either: looks weird, and the cast is so fucked up it could end up being either a sham or a real theatrical experience. Haven't seen Donnie Darko yet, so I don't care for the director but I wish he delivers.
calling The Rock "Dwayne Johnson" by Amy Chasing	Sep 12th, 2007 01:04:59 AM
brave of them. I'd be calling him "Sir". nah, I've heard The Rock in interviews. he's cool
Seann William Scott- worst beard in human history! by Will Not Reply To Your Post	Sep 12th, 2007 01:08:54 AM
Always. And it looks worse when the hair on his head is dyed blond! He might as well just rub coal dust on his face.
TRAILER??? by robzass	Sep 12th, 2007 01:11:36 AM
Wasnt there supposed to be a trailer a month ago?
That shit sucks! by Traumnovelle	Sep 12th, 2007 01:14:55 AM
It's a veritable whos who of underwhelming B-list goombas. And the top part should read "From the writer/director of Donnie Darko...remember Donnie Darko? That was pretty crazy, huh?" That would hook people better, maybe. Without the blather of internet sites like these, I would have no previous knowledge of this film, and if I saw THIS poster in my local theater lobby, my eyes would skim right over it without registering a drop in my memory banks. It is bland and dull and it showcases some really, REALLY bad actors. But maybe it's good, who knows! I don't want to be a big old negative nelly. Maybe it's the long-awaited breakthrough performance from the guy who drank pee in American Pie 2. Strangers things have happened. None come to mind right now.
Except for Timberlake, that fucker looks harsh!! by Zeotron	Sep 12th, 2007 01:18:40 AM
what is he in this movie? looks like a maniac ferris wheel operator on the poster.
they should just call this by howlermonkey	Sep 12th, 2007 01:20:58 AM
let's just pick some random b-list actors: the motion picture
Confusing... by lucky_cosmonaut	Sep 12th, 2007 02:05:48 AM
I find the tone of this film to be very confusing. Kelly touts it as a surreal Phillip K Dick inspired Sci-Fi epic, the clips on YouTube make it seem like a black comedy, and this poster makes it look like a political thriller. I'm keen to see it, I'd just like to know what I'm in for.
I wouldn't watch this if it was free. Not this by GQtaste	Sep 12th, 2007 02:23:23 AM
piece of shit. I'd rather watch Beaches, Santa w/ Muscles.
I dig how the "stars" on the faux-flag are the cast by Vanderhorst	Sep 12th, 2007 02:25:24 AM
I'm all for this movie, but reading the cast list out loud with gravitas is funny on its own
A cornacopia of shitty actors by Bobo_Vision	Sep 12th, 2007 02:59:54 AM
Bleh.
Ugly! by can-D	Sep 12th, 2007 03:18:33 AM
But the poster from darko was also ugly so. I miss the time where real graphics people worked on film posters. Rip Saul Bass. I want to see this flick though since like forever.
I'm There! by Colier Rannd	Sep 12th, 2007 03:21:12 AM
Donnie Darko was, ultimately, a superhero movie to me. I wonder if this will be the same? And part of me wants to see Frank come back.
Richard Kelly got good performance from Patrick Swayzy by pokadoo	Sep 12th, 2007 05:12:00 AM
He also brought us Seth "I like your boobs" Rogan. Hilarious as that cast list is, I'm hoping he strikes gold again. Been looking forward to this film for a while!
Me Likey! Quint is there a release date yet? by Yeti	Sep 12th, 2007 06:14:51 AM
Didn't even recognize Timberlake in the top right corner.
'This is the way the world ends' by Monkey Butler	Sep 12th, 2007 07:54:22 AM
More like 'This is why the majority of mature adults think you're a pretentious hack'. It's bad enough that a fricken video game quotes Eliot, but you just know that The Hollow Men will have absolutely zero relevance to this movie. Richard Kelly is an absolute joke. Only 13 year olds think putting random (but now very, very cliched) poetry in film marketing makes it deep.
not in production for so long, in Limbo by Lance Rock	Sep 12th, 2007 07:56:56 AM
didn't this debut at the 06 Cannes fest?
wait the Rock might actually be in a cool movie? by Geek Sodomizer	Sep 12th, 2007 08:35:24 AM
the poster sucks btw.
still looking forward to this. by PVIII	Sep 12th, 2007 09:00:38 AM
after reading the prequel graphic novels (which I thought were great btw), I'm even more psyched. Not looking forward to the musical scenes though...
oh and just give us the trailer already Kelly by PVIII	Sep 12th, 2007 09:02:16 AM
otherwise you're just a big liar telling us it was going to come out last week.
Christopher Lambert is in Southland Tales by The Biomind	Sep 12th, 2007 09:39:02 AM
I find it strange that they show Mandy Moore so huge on this poster. And there's not a glimpse of Christopher Lambert at all. Does Mandy (who the hell is she???) Moore really sell more tickets than the former Tarzan-Highlander?
anyone else think it's going to be bad? by ChapaJ	Sep 12th, 2007 10:34:49 AM
I loved Donnie Darko, but does anyone else think this is going to suck? I have a feeling it's going to be Kelly's Idiocracy. Poor Mike Judge just couldn't follow up Office Space. Southland Tales has been in studio limbo, just like Idiocracy. Never a good sign.
if this is akin to Judge's 'Idiocracy' by PVIII	Sep 12th, 2007 10:37:35 AM
then count me in. That movie was awesomely hilarious. Except for Dax Sheppard. I hate that guy.

just to depict how funny/ sadly correct 'idiocracy' is
That's a bland poster. by mr.brownstone	Sep 12th, 2007 11:18:52 AM
Shoulda done something more eye catching and graphics/theme oriented like Lord Of War or those first Crank posters. http://www.impawards.com/2006/ crank.html and http://www.impawards.com/2005/ lord_of_war_ver2.html
By nifty you mean absolute shit, right? by zikade zarathos	Sep 12th, 2007 12:27:34 PM
Because Christ that's horrible.
It's too busy looking by Neo Zeed	Sep 12th, 2007 12:45:33 PM
There's too much stuff going on and the credits/title are too small.
All that flag is missing is the stars. by El Scorcho	Sep 12th, 2007 02:01:34 PM
Get it? LOL!!!
good poster, seriously? by reckni	Sep 12th, 2007 05:36:20 PM
This movie is going to blow, I mean it doesn't even have a trailer. Then again, Idiocracy didn't have a trailer, and that mess was kinda funny.
What the fuck IS this movie? by performingmonkey	Sep 12th, 2007 06:20:01 PM
A confused mess of ideas, it seems.
I don't like it by tendermelon	Sep 12th, 2007 06:37:51 PM
maybe this movie will suck
they also left Will Sasso's name off of the cast list by tendermelon	Sep 12th, 2007 06:44:48 PM
sucks for Will Sasso. The poster seems awkward and distracting. Too much going on and marketed to crap.
