I like the Better Life poster, just for the picture...so maybe great shot, but not good for a movie poster?
And the Robert Pattinson poster is just cashing in on the Twilight fiends.

Don't tell me, Arthur's not a drunk in this one, right?

I'll go with Gooey. Honestly, what the fuck is all that other stuff?! Also...Helen? wtf?!

As much as I hate the stupid Pattinson poster with what looks like Pattinson jealously murdering two people in molten metal and sparks, I think the Arthur poster is even worse. I don't like Jennifer Garner. I hate the expressions that she makes with her stupid face and that poster is one of her worst looks ever.
It looks like she's trying to smile for the first time in her life but she's never even heard of a smile before today. I want to punch her in her face and that's a crazy thing to want when Russel Brand is sitting there begging for a fist to the mouth as well.
Helen Mirren is not in such filth and I would appreciate if you would put up the original poster before she was photoshopped in.

You know, Jennifer Garner seems to be losing some of her youthful angularity, and is coming into a nice bit of curvishness - so yay.
And that is one crazy life-changing passionate Anne Hathaway kiss.

If they fuck up One Day so help me Satan I will burn Anne Hathaway's smugness to the ground.

I am heartened by the One Day poster. I loved this book and have been given free copies to give out as part of World Book Night (a night where 1 million books have been given to selected givers to give out for free in the UK) so am pleased to see a lovely poster. However, does rather give away that they are romantically linked which apart from a one night stand at uni (which this could show?) it doesn't happen until later in the day. Um, spoilers.

I heart Julie.

Julie, if they screw up One Day, I'll give you the matches.

Not sure where to post this since it's unrelated, but speaking of leggy, WHERE IS THE CHUCK PICTORIAL RECAP!!! There were plenty of worthy screen captures for the C.A.T. Squad!
Also, I like the Gooey poster.

The gooey poster is really kinda steamy.

I have no problem with cashing in on Pattinson for that poster. He's a good looking boy and there is no reason why he should not use that to his (and the film's) advantage.
I do object to the poster with the tepid and ubiquitous Hathaway and Sturgess. Isn't he actually a good actor? Yes. He is. Why do the powers that be (and the powers who clearly hate me and want me to not go see films) insist on pairing lame-ass female starlets with actual good actors? And they pair douchey guys with real, live good actresses.
Why can't they get it right? The proper equasion is Douche and Bland go together (Kate Hudson and Matthew McSweaty) and Solid Actor w Solid Actress (um...Ruth Gordon and Bud Cort...? I keed with you, OK, how about Daniel Day Lewis and Madeline Stowe).
All this is to say that I hate that poster and "they" need to start consulting me on casting matters.

The One Day poster is how you do sexy/gooey. Not Blue Valentine. Take note.

I just finished reading One Day and the ending pissed me off so much that I refuse to see the movie.
Also it looks like NY in the background which irks me even more. The book was set in the UK and France. Not every goddamn movie needs to be set in NY. We get it...it's a great city. Let's move on and let some other cities have a moment.

What the hell did they do to Helen Mirren's legs in the Arthur poster?! She looks like Cotton Hill!

LANDA! What the fuck are you doing hanging out with sparkle-motion and withered spoon in the heart of a supernova?!
Get the FUCK out of there! Now!
I don’t care if you turn out to be the only redeemable part of that pap; I don’t care – you should be the leading light in an entire cast of leading lights; you should be given quality material to work with and to shine in; you should be making me SMELL the awesome off you from the screen in a film that is just as awesome – NOT one that makes me want to vomit because the smell of awesome and faeces together is inherently vomit-inducing.
LANDA!, listen to another fellow famous Austrian thespian and: GETOUTOFTHERE!

I think that the poster for One Day is gorgeous. I miss Jim Sturgess.
