Poster for Brad Pitt's 'Killing Them Softly'

With James Gandolfini, Richard Jenkins, Sam Rockwell, Ray Liotta, and Sam Shepard. Directed by Andrew Dominik (The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Chopper).

Based on the novel by George Higgins. Originally titled 'Cogan's Trade' which made me wince. When I first heard that title I figured I would never get around to seeing this. 'Killing Them Softly' is so much better.

Very confident poster.

The (new) title and this poster alone practically make this must-see no matter what it's about or who's in it. That is, you could make a movie with just about anybody and just about any plot and, as long as you called it 'Killing Them Softly' and used this poster, I'd want to see it.

Yes. Thank you. I will.

New Poster for 'The Cabin in the Woods' -- A Day Late And A Dollar Short But...Brilliant

Where were they keeping this one? Very nice.

Love the tagline: There is a greater good, and for that you must be sacrificed.

The ID badge:

Gary Sitterson, played by Richard Jenkins.

Really, they should have gone out with this before the release. The main poster they used -- the Rubik's cube cabin -- wasn't that good and I'm pretty sure we only got one version after the teaser posters. The flick didn't do so well, either. A couple cool posters could have made a difference. Sometimes, weak marketing is a head scratcher. Yeah, I know, there were gobs of ads, but that (main) poster was kind of a turn off.

The Visitor

Here is an interview at Sundance with 'The Visitor' director Tom McCarthy and lead Richard Jenkins. I like this trailer. These small films keep me going.
