The Last Samurai Advanced Movie Poster
Anyone where I can get one? I saw one at a local movie theatre, is there any place that is currently selling it? I've checked quite a few sites with no luck. Any ideas?

It's rather bizarre, no? The awkwardness of the pose (try doing it), plus the fact you can't even see his face?

I know Tom Cruise isn't supposed to be Japanese, but he looks 100% ridiculous dressed as a Samurai. John Belushi is more convincing than him.

Hmmm.
You think he might do push-ups during the inevitable "training montage" in this movie?
Look back at his film roles. At some point in every Tom Cruise movie, the man does a push-up.

I thought it looked cool. But how is this film going to be any different than Kagamusha and/or Ran. It looks to be the same thing: Ancient feudal worriors facing down the encroachment of technology that will destroy them wholesale (guns and modern warfare)

Yeah I know. Its rare that you see anything having to do with Tom Cruise without the big headshot of him.

Yeah but this is just the teaser poster isn't it? I'm sure the regular release version will be a nice fat closeup.
(Marketing gripe #7: When the actors name is in a larger print than the films title.)

People laughed at the preview in my film as well.
The Japanese call him in after leading an AMERICAN army into a massacre.
They want Cruise' character to teach the Japanese army to
use guns instead of swords.
He just gets into the Samurai thing when he gets there.
It's not as ridiculous as it may seem.
Should be an interesting flick.
