i thought the worst artwork where heads were unnaturally "photoshop'd" onto bodies belonged to the Star Wars original trilogy. but now i've seen the cover for the Longest Drive, and that one took the cake. Kurt Russell doesn't even have a neck there.

That's very bad. This one always cracks me up too:

SPiRAL

Yeah, that one's pretty bad.

The cover art for Universal's WEIRD SCIENCE is pretty bad...the heads of Anthony M Hall and Ilan Mitchell-Smith are about 2X the size of their bodies and are not even facing the right direction. Universal should have used the original poster art. It would have been just fine...

Bruce should've sued

^^Wow, that is just horrid.

How does this topic come up and nobody mention Season 3 of M*A*S*H?




I'm no Photoshop expert, but damn....

Bobbin

Haha, it's the Six Flags guy!

Flynn

That link is hilarious. And what's up with Bruce Willis' picture? That's just ridiculous.

The British cover for Infernal Affairs 2 is pretty bad:

Rypro 525

it looks like they took the pose of Nixon on the stairs of the plane, but 2 guns in his hand, and photoshoped the star of hte movie on.

Hard to really tell on this image, but this has always been a favorite:



Reinhold made fun of it on Letterman once, if I recall.

Michael Corvin

That is what I was going to post. Here it is. Radar with boobs and Blake with a left handed salute.



And then there is this one. The heads look right, but check out that magical non-spilling beer mug! Bad photoshop all around on this one.

TheVelvetRope

I've always loved this one. The heads are fine, but it's clear the actors were all photographed separately, and how can you not admire the half-assed fake money they've photoshopped into Nick and Rachel's hands?!

UAIOE

Well...they do say the Army changes a man.

The woman's head is all out of porportion with the rest of the body. There is a shot of her running on the back of the case that looks normal, and prooves that is not her body.

Catch that Kid also disturbs me
Original poster:

DvD cover:

And I can't find an image of the back cover, but the heads are the exact same as the previous two images, just different bodies. It's like they paid the kids for one photo shoot and that's it.

these covers really crack me up. can't believe how studios green light these. aren't they supposed to have an ample supply of talented graphic artists who do this for a living? and i guess actors don't okay the covers, because half of these don't look very flattering.

Mr. Cinema

Look, it's Edward Furlong!

Reminds me of this "knit your own" things at Target..there was one where you knit a dog toy and the dog on the front has the toy in its mouth. You can tell the toy is fake because its "lips" don't curve around the toy sticking out of its mouth and its obvious that its just a dog sitting there panting.

Anyway...

The recent "Tommy Boy" DVD release has some doctored head shots on it. They arent planted, but you can tell they are fixed in some way.

salamander2

the cover for MODERN PROBLEMS and RACE WITH THE DEVIL is really bad.

The Infidel

I remember there being a debate after this came out about whether it was really their bodies. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it.

The Infidel

Michael Corvin

Pretty Woman looks legit to me. The only thing that stands out to me is them being the exact same height.
