King Mark 3,631 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I don't like posters with full bodies. The feet are wasted space IMO.No actually,they have to make the actors smaller in full body rather than huge heads taking all the space,so there's more room for a detailed background.K.M.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted April 19, 2004 Author Share Posted April 19, 2004 No, they couldn't, because I couldn't. The posters are far more detailed than they are given credit for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Yes, Mark, the one in my avatar. I see the other posters as jumbled scenes with random bits of the movie strategically placed throughout. Woot. I've seen it before. The US one is more unique, at least for Harry Potter. It creates a distinct feeling, one that befits the maturing series, which is much more than I can say for the others. It's intriguing, mysterious, and dark; the kids' expressions are right on, and the dementors in the corner are quite frightening. More creative than the others, this poster is simple yet effective, with the best tagline yet for a Potter film: Something Wicked This Way Comes.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Did you see the second international poster? It has all the the qualities you just described, but looks a lot better! It's better than the first internat'l poster, but Harry looks seductive for some reason, and the wind is kinda cheesy. I like the simplicity of the US one. Who thinks Buckbeak should have been in one of the posters.I agree, we haven't seen much of him, and even less of Prongs. That's probably to avoid spoilers though.Ray Barnsbury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskobolus 3 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Harry looks seductive for some reasonRay BarnsburyMaybe they realized the powerful box office potential of religious people in large groups and are trying to get all the priests to go see this movie.

Morlock 11 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I heard a few hours ago on BBC that there are a few characters were cut out of the third movie. Not only the Dursley's, but they said that a rumer has it that Dumbeldore has been entirly cut out of the picture, which I find very hard to believe. Did anyone see this or does any know anythign more about these rumers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I'm guessing you're meaning the fourth film, not third. I really wouldn't trust this at all. They would never cut Dumbledore out completely; he's far too involved in the plot of the whole series let alone the fourth book.And to previous posts that must have popped up in the last 24 hours; I don't consider the Potter books to be children's books. Yes, they were originally aimed at children, but they are complex, detailed books that hold far more than simple fantasy stories. So I think the US cover for the books are ridiculous.

Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Well, it's probably their mistake or it's simply not true. It's a little strange to say that now, after we've seen countless images and clips of Dumbledore in the new movie. Quite silly, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 That's what they said. They might have heard wrong. And it's always possible to see stuff in trailers and stills that weren't in the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Not that much. There were shots of Dumbledore welcoming the school (as if they'd get rid of that); Dumbledore arriving at the Flight of the Fat Lady; Dumbledore talking to teachers/Percy in the Great Hall at Halloween, with students asleep around him; that little magic trick with the candle and some more. (Or not, that's probably it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 11 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 They used the third movie's trailer and said something to the effect of 'Well, I guess these scenes won't be in the movie, despite being in the trailer'. But I'm pretty sure they were just passing on rumers about the fourth film, and mistakenly attributed them to PoA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
