Jul 3 2008'Disaster Movie' Poster Accurately Portrays Terribleness of 'Disaster Movie'

disaster-movie-poster-final.jpg

I guess it shouldn't come as a surprise that when you're dealing with a movie comprised entirely of lazy references to other movies, the poster is basically going to look like a grotesquely visual works cited page, but it seems pretty daring to present what I'd guess is every "joke" in the movie in a single image. They've just totally ruined the gag where Indiana Jones is a midget, and the gag where the Chipmunks look like nightmares, and the gag where Hellboy is... present.

Click the poster for the large version. But really, don't.

My friggin god. They're making pop culture references to movies that are still in theaters that weren't out when the movie was written. They made a movie based on trailers.

This looks horrible. Even for random movie reference films.

......*cries*

Have some respect...if not for our movies then for our collective intelligence please, people who made this movie...please. And what's that there way in the background, it's a car isn't it...it's the Mach 5, isn't it ? T_T.


Bedot's right, they've made an entire movie based on trailers for much better movies. There's also something very wrong about poorly parodying TDK at this point. A bad idea all around, but they could have at least had the brain cells to see the movies they were parodying before they wrote the damn thing :(

if they try to spoof TDK im gonna hunt the director and fucking stab him in the eye.

I don't even understand what character Kim Kardashian is supposed to be. There are so many parodies that she probably just got the leftovers in the wardrobe dept or something.

God, it's like the cover to Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, but shit.

Am I just embarrassingly out of touch with pop culture and movies of the last year, or do some of these references not even make sense? Since when has Amy Winehouse been referred to as a vampire? And why is she holding a prosthetic child?? And what has this got to do with either disasters or movies???

Also, WHAT is funny about Iron Man being Iron Man? Did they run out of humour-based steam and just decide that referring to movie characters as they are in their original contexts is sufficiently witty?

Also, the entire SATC cast needs to sue.

well its good that none of those ugly figures remind me of any of my favorite films. whats up with the hurricane in the background, are they still parodying Twister??

Why does Amy Winehouse have fangs and why is she holding a baby upside down with a giant bottle of booze?
Have we travelled back in time to 1996? Why is there a reference to Twister? I mean, it wasn't funny when it was continuously referenced back then, why would it be funny now? And why does it appear that the car from Speed Racer is being driven by a cow?
Who the hell are all those people behind Batman. And most importantly who the bloody hell are the people who pay to watch these movies? Who? Because I want to punch them in the kidneys SO bad!

They should have called this 2008 Movie. Does it scare you guys that somewhere, someone actually wants to see this flick?

The only actual disaster movie they're parodying is, from the looks of it, Twister.

We need to cut them some slack. In the same way that The Beatles abandoned their initial concept two songs into Sgt. Pepper's, "the guys" decided that instead of making the movie disaster-related, they should stick to what they're good at.

I just wanna know how these vapidly lame movies get funded? What kind of dolts sit there in their hollywood corners office, look at the script to this or Meet The Spartans and say "HAHA!!! That's some funny stuff! My retarded kid loved it!"

Have you ever met someone that loves (Or even LIKES) these movies?

WTF.

This reminds me of the entertainment from the film "Idiocracy", which is set 500 years in the future when these kinds of morons populate the planet. My favorite line is when someone says they have to go to the bathroom to which a moron replies, "Ha ha, the bathroom!"

well, the title is good at least - this movie does indeed look like a total fucking disaster on every level.

My biggest fear is if when they run out of vague genres to remind us of they'll do a parody of their own movies named "Parody Movie". Where they can remind us what it's like being reminded of movies.

Then the universe will implode.

#8, the people behind Batman are the cast of Sex & the City. That being said ...

Highschool Musical, Hanna Montana, The Chipmunks, Sex & the City Sluts, Speed Racer and Juno are very much out of place. I can at least understand Iron Man, Hulk and Hellboy, Indiana Jones (midget or not) and even Lara Croft, the "Enchanted" girl and Po being involved in a "Disaster" situation since in each of those characters deal with "end of the world" situations. Or at least a dragon.

These people should stick to what they know and focus on a SINGLE genre rather than mix and match two dozen movies into one big mess. At least they had the sense with Superhero Movie to follow a single story and toss in a few RELATED gags here and there, rather than toss a shit-ton of pop culture refrences into something just because. Ever see Shrek the Third? It's going to be worse.

Rather than contribute to the comments of confusion and horror (though believe me, I'm confused and horrified-- Amy Winehouse isn't a movie! That black midget Indiana Jones is holding the golden skull of, what, the missing CGI chipmunk? It certainly doesn't look human to me! And why is Hancock just THERE? Is that funny to someone? Is the joke that he's a drunk? Because that's in the actual movie, right?), I do believe I'll say simply:

I cannot fucking believe that they didn't choose to cast a woman to play Zac Efron. Way to miss the fucking boat.

Who are the two random busty girls up front supposed to be? That's not supposed to be Lara Croft. Even these morons wouldn't get her outfit that wrong.

who actually sees these movies? BOYCOTT!

I really need to know, why do these people still think we are going to laugh up our kidneys by the mere sight of a midget. Mike Myers you are hereby guilty of perpetuating the myth that vertical deficiency and lazy scottish accents are funny no matter on the banality inherent in the script. Your sentence is : Love Guru.

sigh

wtf? they spoof wanted too. this movie will be the worst parody movie. hancok who fucked his head with a street light or iron man been fucked up from a cow. is that supposed to be hilarious? hulk been get off his short... ha ha ha.

you know what makes me sad? my brother told me he wanted to see meet the spartans back when it was coming out.

i cried a little inside.

and dude HSM3 comes out like 2 weeks before this. how they hell do you parody a movie you don't know anything about?
