Take a look at the cover.
haha, maybe shitty covers can become a running gag for gondry.

There's a big sun in the background.  Sunshine, get it?

They should use the original posters and put out multiple covers.

Yech.  Makes the movie look like a romantic comedy.
more than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. one path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. the other, to total extinction. let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.

you can even tell from that poorly compressed jpeg that carrey's face has been airbrushed to shit...plastic, featureless shit.

incidentally this goes against everything gondry wanted carrey to look like specifically for this movie: no makeup

Remember when Roger Avary got pissed off about the lame Rules Of Attraction DVD cover and had a contest to design a new one, resulting in many superior downloadable and insertable covers?

More directors should do that.

I'll hold out some hope that that isn't the final DVD cover art.

their  mission has been accomplished.  MOMS EVERYWHERE, have we got a movie for you!  <--- calling out from the shelf at blockbuster.  

directors really need to have more control over this stuff.  i mean, seriously.  dont they care at all about the presentation of their film?
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

No, not if it will sell it/garner it a few more rentals.

I've learned my lesson!  I know how the world works.  Money doth make the world go 'round.  Do I get my cynical filmmaker-wannabe wings yet?  :-D

well if that doesnt fit the definition of 'selling out' i dont know what does.  compromising your presentation to appeal to a larger audience.  it wouldnt be bad if they could find a way to appeal to the masses with something that actually looked good, but they cant seem to do that.

Dude, I think selling out is a little different.  They didn't change the movie.
