I noticed that the map labeled Germany as "Douche Land" or something like that.

I think he goes a little overboard, but it doesn't matter...all movies titled after rock songs (especially 1980s rock songs) automatically suck and flop anyway.

I found this on someone's profile on hotornot.com . I couldn't stop laughing at how poorly-done their photoshop job was.

From film...

From the poster. Not sure who's hand that really is, or how that umbrella is being held up.

I'm a big fan of "Brick", aside from this odd photoshop job on the poster I hope The Brothers Bloom does well.

On the subject of current movie posters.

Vanessa Hudgens hand freaks me out the more I look at it. I'm not sure whether it's the missing finger or the fact that her thumb is about twice the length it should be. (look at your own hand and see if you can get your thumb to stretch that far)

That's actually not a photoshop disaster. That is a Disney genetic glitch. Watch this.

By the way, here is a high resolution shot of the above picture that Michael posted.

This is a fan made pic, but something about that forehead really bothers me.

I'm pretty amazed by the image really. Not so much that Megan Fox is suffering male pattern baldness (abnormally receding hairline). What I'm talking about is the freaking lack of Trajan.

In case anyone cares, the type used on that image is Neutraface.

Is that the font style that Bobby likes, or the history of the Roman Emperor?

Is her red suit that tight you can see her bellybutton and abs? Or is it painted on? And who the hell is Megan Fox??

1. I think the suit may be "Photoshopped" on.
2. Megan Fox showed off her tasty mid-riff in Transformers

Close guess.

Trajan is a type family designed by Carol Twombly in 1989 for Adobe Systems. It was inspired by the lettering carved into the Trajan Column, a certain sculptural piece made many centuries ago in tribute to the Roman emperor Trajan (his full name was Marcus Ulpius Nerva Traianus).

Adobe Systems has bundled Trajan in certain versions of Adobe Illustrator. In recent years, the OpenType version known as Trajan Pro (which features a true large capital-small capital character set) has been bundled in with various Adobe Creative Suite applications.

In movie poster culture, Trajan has become the Helvetica (or Arial) of movie poster title design. It is a default, knee-jerk, no-brainer, go-to font when a designer can't seem to come up with anything original. Trajan, despite being a beautifully designed typeface, has become ubiquitous, over-used and even boring. Yeah. Boring.

Typical Hollywood movie poster these days: some "A-list" actor's bulbous potato head all Photoshopped to smoothness with a title set in Trajan. Hoo-ray.
