Every time I see ads for The Love Guru, Meet Dave, My Best Friend's Girl, and (now) Beverly Hills Chihuahua I want someone to drop an ACME anvil on my head.

I was led to believe this movie is about a gigantic woman who resides in New York City and kills people then relaxes in Central Park after her day of destruction. Boy was I pissed after I watched this.


Jesus and Anakin Skywalker are huge sea monsters who destroy ships and lord over a frightened mass of people! I am THERE! Oh, wait....

^Starring Russell Crowe as The Moon

And:

Russell Crowe stars in "OVERCOMPENSATING" on November 14th


( just wanna state I have nothing against Crowe. I worked at a theater when this was out and had to build a HUGE F***n' standee of this movie so it has stuck in my memory.)

It's about a woman who is seduced by a dolphin who takes human form. But apparently she doesn't wait for the dolphin to take human form before she grinds on it.

The fact that there's a pronunciation guide on the poster itself makes this full of win.

Not really a movie, but always displayed before a movie begins at the theater, and annoying as f*ck because they're just so poorly written/produced... the FANDANGO commercials.

About as bad as this one:


I hate it that we are seeing dumbed down posters that have pronunciation guides on them.

I'll admit it, I did not know how to pronounce Ratatouille before the movie came out.
