Like most plots these days, movie posters have a tendency to copy off each others papers. It’s easy to identify similar patterns if you look close enough. I’ve already covered the similarities in ads for romantic comedies and also spotted the use of the “stink eye” to promote several films released earlier this year. As luck would have it, another trend reared its head this summer. Notice anything simpatico about the following posters?

Jonah Hex

The Last Airbender

Inception

Dylan Dog: Dead of Night

I Spit On Your Grave

Back facing us. Head turned to the right. Weapon in right hand.

Talk about mailing it in. C’mon, Hollywood poster artists. You could at least try to be original.
