Empire's New And Improved Collection Of Badly Photoshopped Movie Posters | X-Men: First Class (2011)
X-Men: First Class (2011)

Stars butchered: James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, Oliver Platt, Kevin Bacon… the list goes on and on.

What went wrong where: The bobble heads, ah, the bobble heads. There’s so much that’s so squiffy with this one that we think it’s probably more fun for you to spot the blunders yourself. Besides, we already were pretty harsh about this one when it first came out…

What makes it more embarrassing is the fact that this poster may not be the worst the film’s marketing department released – who can forget the silhouette-floaty-faces, after all?

Did they fix it? Well, they kind of did. The French version of the poster looks pretty damn good and then there’s the reflected-pool posters, which we’ve always liked.

The You can count on me cover that I was always familiar with was this one http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0203230/ Far better than the one you claimed was an improvement (which isn't) More

The cover for Henry's Crime on DVD is awful, I'm not sure if looking at it online truly does it justice but here it is on amazon: http://amzn.to/mK5no4 when it's in your hand the colours are all over the place (especially Keanu) and there's just no WAY all 3 of the cast were together for that shot. Awful, just awful. More

6 Everybody’s Fine (Except the camera)
If you tilt a digital camera, the picture does not tilt with the camera. It stays paraller to the horizon. Unless DeNiro already took the photo and then tilted the camera on a flash of a second. Cause everybody seems to be in the excat same position in both of them. More

I wouldn't be too hard on the Takers poster, the whole cast probably couldn't get day release when the group shot was scheduled. More

there's nothing wrong with the snakes on a plane poster More

10 RE: RE;
I remember the VHS cover on Titanic always use to freak me out. Kate Winslets Neck was just too weird and at a wrong angle and the way Leo was hugging her just bugged me. More

11 RE:
I've just spent a good fifteen minutes going through these on my lunch break, chuckling quietly to myself in the hope that no one saw. I don't think I succeeded - thanks Empire. More
