'Charlie Wilson's War' - Here's the poster

October 30, 2007 |  4:30 am

Comingsoon.net premieres the "Charlie Wilson's War" poster. CLICK HERE Notice its emphasis on smart ironic humor over snooty Oscar pretentiousness. Good ploy.

Quite honestly one of the worst posters I've seen in years.
Misleading, horribly airbrushed and grammatically incorrect.
I'm so hoping this film just quickly disappears, everything about it is turnoff.

you are all bitter haters! this film is gonna be great and tom hanks will be fantastic as usual. that's all.

Ugh!! This year's Dreamgirls! also... Tom and Sasha's Dreamgirls! Over-hyped! And did any of you heard that aotricious and laughable southern accent by that woman with a Joker-like smile? "I have been a firm supporter of the Afghan war.. something, something," laughable! Well at least let's hope this movie will be hilarious... in all the wrong senses!

What a mess! Clumsy text. Clumsy grouping.

Tom Hanks, obviously stung by the Da Vinci Code haircut crisis, was determined to show that he was okay this time. Even if it meant nearly turning his back in the poster.

I know Phil won an Oscar, but do we have to stick him in the middle, looking like Elvis Costello's chubbier brother?

Meanwhile Julia stares pensively into the middle distance and wonders - "I came back, for this?"

Can you imagine the posters they rejected?

P.S. I mean the second line on top. And I'm not thrilled with the bottom text. Same snark as THE HOAX, which probably turned a lot pf people off. Still, hoping for the best.

That second sentence is a question. Why the hell isn't there a question mark? Besides that, I like it. I think you're right to have high hopes for this one Tom.
