Focus Pull: April 2008
http://focuspull.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
The little details of the big picture. April 1, 2008. The Sincerest Form of Flattery. The upcoming documentary American Teen. Examines the various cliques within the senior class of an Indiana high school. The theatrical poster pays tribute to the artwork for another film that dealt with teen cliques, the '80s teen classic The Breakfast Club. They did a very good job on matching the poses, but my favorite nod to the John Hughes film remains the original poster for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2.

Focus Pull: Check Your Local Listings
http://focuspull.blogspot.com/2008/02/now-playing-to-your-subconscious.html
The little details of the big picture. February 28, 2008. Check Your Local Listings. An amusing side effect of the modern multiplex is the crowded marquee. Take a couple of proper name film titles and a verb-based film title, and then fit them in a confined space and titter at the accidental phrases that occasionally result. While this sort of thing has been fodder for 'funny photo' forums and obnoxious catch-all humor sites for years, last summer's release of the film Knocked Up. Well, now it looks like...

Focus Pull: July 2008
http://focuspull.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
The little details of the big picture. July 29, 2008. True Blood vs. Jennifer's Body. The image on the left is part of HBO's multi-faceted viral marketing campaign for their upcoming vampire show True Blood. Just two days after this poster debuted, 20th Century Fox unveiled the teaser one-sheet for the upcoming film Jennifer's Body. Although the two projects have very different stories, the marketing approach is strikingly similar. Which used the familiar lip-licking closeup back in 1995.

http://focuspull.blogspot.com/2008/10/porn-identity.html
The little details of the big picture. October 6, 2008. The upcoming release of Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Brings the subject of adult entertainment to the multiplex. It's not the first to do so, having been preceded by The Amateurs. 1997), and Boogie Nights. 1997) However, it did get me thinking about Hollywood and the porn industry. In particular, the influence that the former has on the latter. Done in 60 Seconds. I Know Who You Did Last Summer. There's Something Inside Mary. Occasional...

The little details of the big picture. November 27, 2008. Check Your Local Listings, Part 2. One of the more popular pages on this blog has been my roundup of funny movie marquee juxtapositions. Cramming multiple film titles onto a theater sign often results in some unintended humor. In the nine months since that original post, I've collected a few more examples for your amusement. The script for the Will Smith movie Hancock. Was originally called Tonight He Comes. Would these be known as PILFs? The Lodg...

Laquo; #1560: District 9. Stanley Cup Playoffs: Wings/Sharks. April 29, 2010 by Caitlin. You may not know this (you do if you follow me on Twitter, since you’ve been reading a lot of it lately), but I am a hockey fan. Like all crazy sports fans, there is always one team I can’t stand. In this case, it is the Detroit Red Wings, who I am convinced made some sort of pact with Satan and who I am. So tired of seeing hoist the Stanley Cup. Tagged Detroit Red Wings. On April 29, 2010 at 7:20 pm. I watched that ...
