New Wicker Man poster is pretty sucky


From IWatchStuff: When designing this poster, there were a couple options for the image. One was, as seen in the film, an enormous, flaming, wicker figure looming over the countryside, a human being sacrificed in its innards. The other was Nic Cage wandering around a field like a buffoon. I think we can all see they made the right choice. Even when it seems wrong, the right choice is always Nic Cage.

Oh, that's hella lame! That could be a poster for anything. He looks like a reporter in pursuit of an elusive story.

The poster's probably accurately promising what this movie is going to deliver: lots of footage of Nicholas Cage running around in people's back yards.

I'm getting a bad vibe off this whole project.

Yeah I'm now thinking that this is going to be a HUGE stinkfest. I've seen and heard enough at this point to determine that they killed the spirit of the original.
