HOWEVER, it sure does appear to me as though some of the weight is being supported by his left armpit. Have another look.<br /><br />I like Nemo, but don't think that that particular poster says a damn thing about the story, so for that reason, I knock it a point or two. Still, a strong image.<br /><br />I think my favorite one is for Up. Has the key characters, is one of if not the most visually interesting, tells you enough about the story to pique your interest to while not giving anything away, and I still love love love the title treatment.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724552330122407809.post-30796977728588909872010-04-29T12:22:22.029-07:002010-04-29T12:22:22.029-07:00Whitney - I wrote about the bunny ears in my first...Whitney - I wrote about the bunny ears in my first draft but ended up taking. And you're right about Wall-E. It doesn't even reference the potential romance with Eve. I felt stupid writing that.<br /><br />Rachel - Thanks so much!!!<br /><br />Daniel - I thought about Finding Nemo's poster not focusing enough on the main characters but if you look at the Sharks Tale poster, it's arguably more fish-focused than shark focuses and that doesn't work either. Nemo's has the drama I crave in a poster.<br /><br />As far as Ratatouille...thanks a lot. Now, every time I look at this poster that all I'm going to see.

It even brings to mind A Shark's Tale, which I'm sure is the last thing Pixar intended.<br /><br />Meanwhile, I love the Ratatouille poster but upon closer inspection I take issue with the fact that his right foot is not balancing on anything. This means that the hand holding the cheese is either trapped beyond recovery in the fork, or that Ratatouille's core strength is out of this world and he is able to keep himself upright by pushing sideways on the knife with his left leg. All they needed to to do was add another knife or change his right foot position and it would have been OK.<br /><br />In other words, I see your in-depth poster analysis and raise you an anal retentive observation.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05222052132452709301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724552330122407809.post-72236405315175541392010-04-28T12:26:41.276-07:002010-04-28T12:26:41.276-07:00I have yet to come across another movie blogger wh...I have yet to come across another movie blogger who analyzes movie posters as in-depth as you do.

Get it! Toystory 2! OMG. Brilliant.<br /><br />Also, that WALL-E poster doesn't get across how cute he is. That's a problem.whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06048153758556096552noreply@blogger.com
