Jan 14 2009'Outlander' Poster: Where's the Alien Freak Thing and/or Viking Armies?
What you're seeing is the dumbest way to market a movie in which a space man and vikings team up to fight a horrible alien dragon-beast. I know the star's floating head is classic poster philosophy, but this is selling a pizza with a photo of the crust. Let's not be stupid.

Jim Caviezel looks like he's been Christian Baled in Photoshop. Now that I think about it, those two would make a delicious manwich.

Clee Shay: do you realize that there is actually a sloppy joe called a manwich?
Did you mean that they look like they could make a delicious sloppy joe?
Or did you mean it the gay way?
Maybe you should discard that term and revert to using 'man sandwich' instead.
Or never say anything like that again... your choice.

AHAHA best movie plot ever. I wonder how they pitched this.
He DOES look like Christian Bale in this picture. Maybe the film makers are trying to trick all the Batman "fans."

Christian Baled. What a great verb. I'm gonna have to start using it.
Manwich too. Sorry, whistle.

If they would have thrown some vampires in the mix this movie would have been a hit. So close, Hollywood.... so close.

I might be wrong, but I think he's the Silver Surfer

I think this may be a more appropriate poster:

Although it is overly photoshopped.

Gee, Whistle, you think Clee Shay might be a girl? Or a gay guy. Same difference, I guess. And I can't believe you've never heard anyone use the term "manwich" in a non-canned-meat-product kind of way. It kind of makes one think that you never hang out with chicks (or gay guys).
:)

Whistle, in this instance, I would be the meat in the manwich.
Twunt.

usually i read this site for the absurdly funny posts and comments.
but sometimes you all really are a bunch of geeks.

Y'know what they say...a sandwich is a sandwich, but a manwich is a meal.
I mean that in a purely heterosexual, sloppy joe-related way.
