    Speak Up › Dark and Fleshy: The Color of Top Grossing Movies

    Even (especially) as a color-blind person, I am intrigued by this - it's a list of top grossing movie poster colors broken down by rating. You can see that as you move from G rating to R rating movies, the colors become much more black and fleshy.

    Quoted: Speak Up is an open forum to discuss matters related to Graphic Design.

      neat picture, but this looks like the kind of conclusion that could be drawn from a small data set to prove the author's biased hypothesis. he needs to analyze WAY more movie posters than just 25 to draw any conclusions of statistical merit. 25 movies is most likely such a small % of the entire catalog of movies in existence, i'd say this article is fairly low in the credibility department.

    The Incredible Hulk | Reviews | guardian.co.uk Film

    Awesome 1-star "Hulk" review by Peter Bradshaw at The Guardian, written entirely in Hulk-speak.

    Quoted: "Hulk. Smash!" Yes. Hulk. Smash. Yes. Smash. Big Hulk smash. Smash cars. Buildings. Army tanks. Hulk not just smash. Hulk also go rarrr! Then smash again. Smash important, obviously. Smash Hulk's USP. What Hulk smash most? Hulk smash all hope of interesting time in cinema. Hulk take all effort of cinema, effort getting babysitter, effort finding parking, and Hulk put great green fist right through it. Hulk crush all hopes of entertainment. Hulk in boring film. Film co-written by star. Edward Norton. Norton in it. Norton write it. Norton not need gamma-radiation poisoning to get big head. Thing is: Hulk head weirdly small. Compared with rest of big green body.

    Apple - Trailers - Horton Hears A Who - Trailer 2 - Large

    The preview trailer for "Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!" looks great. Please oh please my don't do a poor job with my beloved Dr. Seuss!

    Quoted: A new CG animated feature film from 20th Century Fox Animation, the makers of the “Ice Age” films, based on the beloved book, first published in 1954, by Ted Geisel, who wrote under the pen name Dr. Seuss. Seuss books are among the defining works of family literature, have sold over 200 million copies, and have been translated into fifteen languages. The “Horton” series (“Horton Hears a Who,” “Horton Hatches the Egg”) are consistently among the top-selling of all Seuss titles — generation after generation. HORTON HEARS A WHO is about an imaginative elephant who hears a cry for help coming from a tiny speck of dust floating through the air. Suspecting there may be life on that speck and despite a surrounding community which thinks he has lost his mind, Horton is determined to help.
