Well I'm not saying it's a bad cover, though. It conveys the feel of the movie pretty well.

**Qrazy** · 07-10-2010, 10:54 PM

Simply the best. Better than all the reeeeest.

I think you guys are forgetting that sometimes simplicity makes for a better cover.

I could find dozens of covers with that exact layout. It's a less obnoxious "floating heads".

A Google search led me to discover that the cover adopts the style of Pointillism. Please do show me five covers that do the same thing and then I'll understand your point.

Mentioning Pointillism is pointless (pun intended) in this matter. I was talking about the basic layout. And that's not Pointillism, merely large grain simulating the fog, which is cool, but it's still an image of a man with a gun with the large title slammed across the middle. It's a good example of that, I don't mind the cover, but it's nothing out of the ordinary.

:frustrated: This argument is pedantic and boring.

I always crave simplicity in covers. Criterion Armageddon and The Rock being examples. I don't know why, but I love those ultra-simple looks.

**megladon8** · 07-11-2010, 12:31 AM

I really like that cover for Insomnia.

I am not huge on the cover for The Thin Red Line, but it's nothing offensively bad.

**number8** · 07-11-2010, 03:54 AM

Oh, I agree that The Thin Red Line cover is an odd choice for the movie, but it's extremely well done from a graphic design standpoint. It'd just look uneven without the line.

I'm gonna say bad concept, phenomenal execution.

I really hope Bright Star was better than The Piano because The Piano was fucking terrible.

I disagree, but I am confused as to why it's so highly lauded. Naked Holly Hunter.

It's so bad dude. The scene where a young Anna Paquin gets blood spurted in her face is lolworthy.

You don't deserve that title under your username.

Did you want more adjectives or something?

I don't remember much in the way of details. I just remember Keitel being his typically awesome self and naked Holly Hunter.

**Spinal** · 07-11-2010, 04:14 AM

The Piano is pretty much a perfect film. Well shot. Well written. Well acted. Unique and powerful.

Holy shit. So I'm halfway through Possession, and Isabelle Adjani is pretty much the most perfect woman I've ever seen. Has that right amount of ferality to her that I love in them. I'm sick.

Why can't I meet a girl like her? I need to go to France.

This movie is awesome.

**Spaceman Spiff** · 07-11-2010, 04:38 AM

I kinda feel bad for Dr. Grant though. Especially since this Heinreich guy is such an unbelievable chode. And is it just me, or is this score just a slight reworking of The Godfather's theme?

EDIT: Woah! Look at that! hahahah! So much blood. This movie's great.

My thoughts exactly. Actually got an Adjani film to watch tonight; One Deadly Summer.
