>[celebrity name] >IF. likes to spill the tea.
Is the name of the movie “If,” or is it the name of the character?
This isn’t a very good use of the slang. The character design isn’t particularly tea themed. She looks like a fly or a bee- if she likes gossip, you’d think her catchy tagline would be “What’s the buzz” or something.
I don’t think I like character posters very much. They don’t seem like a very good way to advertise a new IP to anybody that isn’t already kinda familiar with it. Do they exist just to put those celebrity names at the top for normies that care more about the actors?
marketers have brain damage and are stuck in the past and force this single-title shit on everything. this "trend" has been going on for seriously 25 years. someone, please make it stop.
Research shows that the kids these days don’t like things with too many letters or syllables.
And by research, I mean assumptions made by dumb out of touch exec boomers desperately scrabbling to be hip. The kind of people that put the phrase “spill the tea” on a poster because that’s a cool new meme the younger generation likes, slap that on there.
I don't have a problem with character posters in general, but that poster is awful for the reasons you mentioned. The text on it is confusing. The way the character and the title are overlapping looks ugly, too. I wasn't even sure if it's an actual poster or some bad photoshop edit.
I don't know if it was just me, but i saw this poster, next to Phoebe Character poster, and I almost thought there were 2 animated girls that looked the same.
But i looked closer, and i was like, they are the same.
I thought Phoebe would play one, and Cailey would play other, but then I realized she just plays a human.
Also, Clearly she's an insect, that has something to do with flowers,...Why are we supposed to think bee?
Her name is blossom (the flower).
There are at least 13 different bugs/insects/small creatures, that eat (or pollinate) flowers.
We see in the trailer a clip from a synchronized swimming scene that shows that Blossom either has the power to clone herself, or there are a bunch of her.
Even the architecture in the background of the trailer gives me strong Foster’s vibes. It’s very quaint and victorian while also dreamlike because it’s just a little more open and bigger than it should be.
Well, truthfully, she’s an imaginary friend, so she can be whatever some kid imagined her to be. So it could be she was made up by somebody that was really into botany that gave her cool plant biology lore. Or it could be she was thought up by a kid that just kinda thinks flowers are pretty and old timey cartoons are fun, and she operates on Who Framed Roger Rabbit style rules that allow her to synchronize swim with herself only as long as it’s funny or whimsical enough. I’m leaning towards the latter because I don’t think the people making this movie have the style of creativity for the former.
>mfw what I thought was OP's barely disguised AI-slop fake poster turned out to be a weird cross of Drop Dead Fred with Foster Home starring Ryan Reynolds
The trailers for this are some of the most painfully generic “down the check-list” crap I’ve seen in my life, and that’s saying something in a time where every Hollywood marketing campaign is already generic as hell.
this looks fake as hell
what?
I SAID
IT LOOKS FAKE AS HELL
NO
SHE'S REAL
SHE'S MY WIFE
Seeing Phoebe Waller Bridge just kills my interest in this
nothing would piss her off more than a bunch of men sexually objectifying her character without her making a single cent off it.
Pirate the movie, and then draw porn of her character being raped.
Hey,you're right,dude,thanks for the advice!
bzzz

The name of the movie is IF IF stands for Imaginary Friend
Ah okay
>director: J. Krasinski
That thief hack? No wonder it's a ripoff of a popular property. Ripping people off is all this guy does.
Concept already got mogged 5 years ago.
Why didn't they just call it "Imaginary Friend" then? Did they want a single word title that fricking bad they made it incomprehensible and stupid?

no child uses the phrase "spill the tea"
I work with teenagers. They use it occasionally to sound ironic.
Problem is, teens aren't the target audience of this film unless the marketers think Ryan Reynolds is some teenage heartthrob (lol he's not)

Oooh, I want to go to the premiere and be .... so hard while I watch the movie.
>shitty rip-off of Foster's Home
Ryan Reynolds really is terrible at picking his films
That or he owes a lot of fricking money
Or he's doing it for his kids like the guy who played the original Dumbledore
>actually titling the movie IF
marketing nightmare. dead on arrival.
the guy who played Dumbledore did it because Harry Potter already existed and his kids adored the books. what the frick is IF based on?
>what the frick is IF based on?
Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends, obviously.
Lackadaisy ass bug.
Looks nothing like a bee

um... this design is kind of, like, really racist.

>clone
What if, shes just PART of a flower?
Which parts?
Flowers can grow extra leaves, limbs and stuff. Might exsplain her clones?

The gummy bear farting gave me a boner and I wish it didn't.
Swat the bug
So..."Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" as a rip-off live-action movie.
