Jun 17 2009'Inglourious Basterds' Poster Goes Two Point Oh
I know the glossy, perfectly-reflective surfaces of Web 2.0 is the hot right now (at least until Web 3.0, which I anticipate will see a return to lens flares and "under construction" gifs), but there are some things that should not look like they're being purchased from the shadowless, lazily-mirrored floor of Apple's online store. Brutal Nazi-slaughterers are one of those things. Instead of white, reflective floor, how about... we can see down into the fiery pits of Hell, and amongst the screaming, scalped Nazis, the Devil himself is using his own urine to extinguish the surrounding flames in a frantic attempt to hide himself from Brad Pitt's band of insane, vengeful killers.
Sorry, I get most of my poster ideas from death metal lyrics.

Well, at least there's a lot of blood in the background. You typically don't see that in Web 2.0 settings.

nope. next, please.
i can't put my finger on it (other than the fact that it resembles loads of previous movie posters?). it just looks shitty to me. doesn't spell spectacular movie for me.
what's with the Valkyrie design? i guess that's what bugs me. lazy artwork who was out-copped by fucking Valkyrie.

Ah...someone beat me to it. Pretty much a rip-off of the UT3 cover art: http://media.bestofmicro.com/,7-B-52103-3.jpg

Hasn't this movie still come out yet?

That's what's wrong with many movies.It just takes too long till they come out.The people take the movie for granted before it even has come out.

Tarantino is a mightily strange fellow... but he makes a decent movie now and again

Any movie that has Heinz Hummer is worth the price of theater admission.
