‘Clone Wars’ and ‘Twilight’ posters hit web
MTV Tuesday released the exclusive poster for Summit Entertainment’s upcoming vampire romance “Twilight.” Yeah, you read right: vampire romance. Directed by Catherine Hardwicke (“Thirteen”), the flick stars Kristen Stewart as a teenage girl who falls in love with a vampire (Robert Pattinson).
I couldn’t really believe my eyes when I first read about this film, and I haven’t changed my mind about it since then. This quite simply has to suck. Sure, I’ll give the movie a fair chance, but it really doesn’t look good.
The first trailer didn’t win me over at all, and this new poster is pretty boring as well. And what’s with the tagline “When you can live forever, what do you live for?” I have some guesses about what the answer to that silly question could be, but the sentence structure sucks. “Twilight” will open nationwide Dec. 12, 2008. Enjoy the teaser poster below.
The second poster we have for you today is for Dave Filoni’s upcoming animated film “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” which will land in theaters Aug. 15, 2008. Exec. Produced by George Lucas, “Clone Wars” serves as a sort of prequel to the upcoming TV series of the same title, following Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi as they run into villains including Count Dooku and General Grievous.
“Star Wars” will have a blast reuniting for another big-screen adventure, even if it’s only to cheer for CGI characters. But the poster looks cool and promises plenty of action-packed, intergalactic battles. Enjoy the poster below.
We’ll wrap up today’s poster mania with a new poster for Nicholas Cage’s “Bangkok Dangerous.” Yeah, the title is awful indeed. And so is Cage’s hair, although I’m getting used to it. The film, a remake of Oxide and Danny Pang’s Thai flick, tells the story of a hit man who falls in love with a woman during one of his dangerous missions in Bangkok.
The poster below (scroll all the way down) packs an acceptable look, but, as I said before, it’s Cage’s hair that ruins it all. “Bangkok Dangerous” hits us Aug. 22, 2008.
