Is this the worst movie poster ever or what

"Make the poster look like a comic book cover"
"(Oh god, what the hell is a comic book) ... ok boss"

It's an homage to this.

I was like, no way was this the best photo to use for this movie. Surely there are others?

Nope. Then I kept looking. Then I stopped. Cause I guess they didn't bother to take any press photos with all the actors in the same room.

Holy Christ. This is a contender. Good find.

This one always looked bad in a lazy way, like someone was taking promotional photos on set and the designer grabbed them and was like "quick, just give me any image, we need a poster!":

Loving that they fucked up the color on the top girls hand

I don't know if they did? The hair on the other two has parts that are the natural looking color on the white border so I don't if they're trying to imply that's them coming out of the pictures?

I've never seen this movie. I've never even heard of it. And I don't intend to ever see it or even look it up.

But based purely on this poster, I'm going to pretend it's a movie intended to explain the Lewis Black gag of "If it weren't for my horse, I never would have spent that year in college." Because that makes it okay for it to exist in my mind.

I don't even understand what they're trying to convey

Came in here thinking "hyperbole thread title :lol" but it really is one of the worst movie posters I've ever seen.
Others may display a worse use of Photoshop, but this one is just unbelievably bad on a conceptual level.

What the heck is going on with that pocket with the money in it? Part of it was obviously moved closer to his shoulder, but some of the pocket got left behind. Some say these things are a result of marketing rather than designers, but surely this was a goof.

Plus it looks like his right arm is sprouting out of his sternum. He barely has a shoulder.

Holy shit at that one. For anyone who has watched that film, that is so alien to the actual premise of said film.
