Damn it, Straw Dogs remake. I wasn’t against the idea of you, since it’s the kind of revenge story that can be told countless times, but don’t trample on the original, willya? Check out the first poster-

Check Coming Soon for a high res version. Now, compare it to the original.

Remarkable how easy it is to fuck up an iconic image, isn’t it?

Well, that’s definitely something that doesn’t look right.
Could it be Skarsgard’s reflection appearing where there’s no glass?
Actually, didn’t realize that. I was just referencing the “Notice something that doesn’t look right?” at the end of the article.
Hah! Gotcha.
Wow, they really threw Marsden to the wind there. If you want Skarsgard front and center then just do a new poster design.
by ‘breaking point’ are they in fact referring to the point at which the spirits of cinema lovers will become truly dissillusioned by the endless raft of needless, souless remakes?
Could be worse. Need we be reminded of the Media parody of this poster?
“Could it be Skarsgard’s reflection appearing where there’s no glass?”
haha…That and the complete lack of gravity… where, after something forcibly hits you in the eye, not one single fragment of your broken glasses drops to the ground…
Let’s remake Network with Perez Hilton and Keith Olberman. Fuck it.
