They say you can’t spell “Movie Poster” without all the letters required to spell both words correctly and many other things in this week’s episode! This week the scumbags get into the big ol’ world of movie poster design but before getting into something people want to hear they talk about other stuff! Stuff like Seinfeld, the glory of Jason Mantzoukas, movie theater etiquette, proper technique for punching moving cars and sharks, type-based projects which are super-cool and some slide presentation apps which are trying to be super-cool. Top all that with a steaming pile of Jerry King cartoons and we’re good to go! After the break they get into how movie posters have changed from their inception all the way to this modern, Photoshop-dominated, sewer of hog feces we call show! They take a good look at the fine folks over at Mondo Tees and the Alamo Drafthouse who are carrying the torch of quality movie poster design and discuss why their posters are better than nearly everything generated by Hollywood. After that they take a look at how some movies get totally different posters overseas, watch a video breaking down the science of how movies are phoning it in and wrap it all up with a way too easy horror movie poster quiz. Mix all that together with a grown man’s beard and a bottle of DayQuil and baby, you got yourself a stew! Enjoy!
