(500) Days of Summer

In this anti-romantic comedy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt looks back at his relationship with Zooey Deschanel’s Summer, a woman who doesn’t believe in true love.

The awesome teaser trailer hit the internet a few months ago and it seems to have worked in putting this movie on everyone’s radar. Fox Searchlight recently asked fans to help choose a poster.

They finally went with this design :



I wouldn’t have chosen final version, I would’ve rather gone with any of the first three. The big 500 collage is far more striking than the headache inducing collage of the final one and the clean design and simpler fonts of the other two are more pleasant to look at! Which would you have voted for?

 

Paper Heart

I don’t know what genre this movie falls into. It’s half documentary, half fiction. Charlyne Yi of Knocked Up started out filming a documentary about love and figured it won’t quite work, so she incorporated a fictionalized account of her real life romance with Michael Cera (who’s been so typecast as the lovable geek he can already be his own genre) into this film. It sounds like an impossible pitch for a movie but based on the trailer and poster she made it work.

Here’s the new poster and I kinda like it :
