True or False?

^That's nice, but the Whacky C doesn't look quite right, so I'm guessing false.

thread should be titled "Comedy's Hard, Isn't It Folks"

False.

saw this on Friday, it was wild, and with Lionsgate licensing some titles to CC, this could possibly happen.

Did the art for this a while ago, just added the text tonight. I chose the "old" style CC format just because the tabs would've interfered with the composition...

That's one of the best fan covers I've ever seen. Bravo.

It's great. Just that William Shakespeare's name is not legible.

Yeah, I can see where someone might get it confused with some other Macbeth.

Could be worse -- he could've used his actual signature:

Here's mine. Box details coming soon!!!

not a goof, coming soon

richast2 · #89 Post by **richast2** » Fri Sep 29, 2006 8:21 pm

that looks eerily like the cover to Salo

Cinesimilitude · #90 Post by **Cinesimilitude** » Sat Sep 30, 2006 3:50 am

It would have to say just "Number Two" somewhere, with the jackass logo.

Schkura · #91 Post by **Schkura** » Sat Sep 30, 2006 7:04 am

And both ends of the "C" should be pierced together.

Cinesimilitude · #92 Post by **Cinesimilitude** » Fri Nov 17, 2006 5:53 pm

THIS IS NOT REAL. Just messing around, dreaming of a re-issue of Salo.

That's excellent!!!

Wow, that Salo cover would be positively disgusting (perhaps that would be appropriate?). And Steven, I could only hope Woman Ascends the stairs will be sent out in a clear pack--I'm already so sick of these thick digis...

You're talented SncDthMnky. Did you do graphic design in school or something?

I took a few Visual Communication classes in high school, but mostly just taught myself as I went along on photoshop. Thanks for the comment. I must admit, there are some standard things I fall back on, but I did experiment a little with the blurring techniques photoshop allows on this one.

similar to my samourai cover, but i like it.

portnoy · #98 Post by **portnoy** » Sun Nov 19, 2006 3:30 am

i actually had a nightmare about this:

jon · #99 Post by **jon** » Sun Nov 19, 2006 8:59 am

You were probably subconsciously thinking about the potentially upcoming Cronenberg's Crash for CC. Anyways, still a nightmare...but think about a North Country one, insta-death-in-sleep-nightmare.

1) Its "Van Dammage"

2) Surely Criterion can give us more than a theatrical trailer. Where's "The Twinning Effect II"? Interactive Sheldon Lettich commentary?

3) Great cover. I LOVE that there's no "wacky C" on it. Beats Bicycle Thieves!
