Lady in the Water on a Poster
With an all-new trailer last week and this brand-new one-sheet housed over at JoBlo's, it seems that Warner Bros. is just getting ramped up on their "Lady in the Water" marketing. Normally a "poster report" wouldn't be all that exciting, but this is actually a pretty cool poster. (Sue me, I'm a Shayamalanafan ... "The Village" notwithstanding, of course.)
"A modest building manager named Cleveland Heep (Paul Giamatti) rescues a mysterious young woman (Bryce Dallas Howard) from danger and discovers she is actually a narf, a character from a bedtime story who is trying to make the treacherous journey from our world back to hers. Cleveland and his fellow tenants start to realize that they are also characters in this bedtime story. As Cleveland falls deeper and deeper in love with the woman, he works together with the tenants to protect his new fragile friend from the deadly creatures that reside in this fable and are determined to prevent her from returning home."
Written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan ("Unbreakable") and co-starring Bob Balaban, Sarita Choudhury, Jeffrey Wright, Freddy Rodriguez, and Mary Beth Hurt, "Lady" swims into the theaters on July 21st.

They were just saying that writers and directors should just make an effort to be more orginal instead of always playing it safe. What is this need we have in our society to put others down to make ourselves look more intelligent? "Goodness". Not every suggestive comment is blantant critism. Fact: Hollywood is lacking in originality (X-Men 3, Harry Potter 4, Mission Impossible 3, Indiana Jones 4, Pirates of the Carribean 2, Super Man Returns, Posideon) Lets, at least, try to give people credit for acknowledging the problem. How can it get better if we spend all your time attacking the messagers. Please, try to put your frustration into helping to inspire productive discourse instead of condemning those who acknowledge their concern. Sincerely, R-lay (Reply to this) |
