Nov 25 2008'He's Just Not That Into You' or This Lazy Poster
Movie poster designers, there's been a misunderstanding. When myself and other internet people complain about the overuse of Photoshop, we generally mean that the stars are being airbrushed into a featureless oblivion, or that it's very apparent that no one is actually in the same room for the photo, or that Ben Stiller's head has quite obviously been thrown on a different body, and we're suggesting that maybe Photoshop shouldn't be used quite so heavily and lazily. We never meant to not use Photoshop at all, instead choosing to just do a Google image search for each star, grabbing the first image you find of them smiling, and dragging the variously-sized images into a rectangle. That makes it looks like a romantic comedy Atari game where each pixel is a random actor.
Anyone else who watched NBC's Ed notice this reunion of Warren Cheswick and Diane Snyder? Anyone else watch Ed at all?

Yes! Ed was an awesome show! Why isn't it on DVD yet? C'mon iwatchstuff guy. Use your powers and connections to make it happen.
As for this poster and film... No thanks... I've had my fill of romantic ensemble pieces about thirtysomethings trying to pull off twentysomething with Definitely Maybe and Caffiene.

Great. Now I've been scarred by another stupid romantic comedy poster and I'm reminded of how much I miss Ed.

I used to do that with porn pictures in Microsoft Paint when I was like 16 and the internet was new, so that I could just water my keyboard with ease.

They filmed part of this movie in the row home next door to me in Baltimore. Thats not enough of an excuse to go see it.

I watched Ed! Because my parents made me... I hated that Warren kid. The rest of the show was okay, but if he had a major role even my parents would moan and groan.

Ed. One of my favorite shows ever. So sad that that series is not on DVD.

I thought "He's just not that in to you" was for borderline unattractive women that couldn't figure out why they couldn't get past the female friend zone? If that's so... then why are all the women in this movie attractive. I'm sure Jennifer Aniston wonders all the time why she never receives any attention from men.
