Zack and Miri Make a Porno MPAA Approved Movie Poster

The MPAA gave Kevin Smith so much trouble regarding the poster for Zack and Miri Make a Porno, that he has to resort to stick figures… Seriously! I like it better than the original design which ended up as the Canadian poster. Should be up in movie theaters this weekend.

    i think this is a Grate Poster.
  • Mike
    Awesome. Fantastically awesome. Well done Smith...
  • Jef Costello
    LOL That's great. My opinion on this movie has changed my views on Smith, I think this could be his best movie since the first Clerks.
  • Captain Awesome
    But Kevin Smith made the movie?
  • Floppy
    Titillating. . . what a perfect word to describe a movie about making a porno. I'm sold.
  • This is an awesome poster.
    It's way better than the Apatow design of the first poster.
    Great use of white space and text.
    Plus, it makes you want to know what's so titilating about it.
    Very effective.
  • I appreciate the accuracy of Rogen's hair. Well done.
  • jomama
    love it love it love it

    I guess these movie posters are better by MPAA standards:

    The MPAA needs to get their act together.

    I didn't even notice the tufts of hair until you guys said that that was what the issue was.
  • Meli
    LOL! That is fantastic.
  • danielsinematic
    hahaha this poster is a giant screw you to the mpaa, i love it.
  • BadWasabi
    The MPAA seems to have overlooked the fact that those stick figures are NAKED!!
  • MrCavanagh
    That is either the best or worst poster I've ever seen. Can't quite make up my mind.
  • that is fucking ELITE!! I just wish he had written "that the mpaa only lets us..."etc. MAKE them the villains (even though this poster is better), let people know that the mpaa is ridiculous. wtf.
  • Joe
    The poster itself is awesome, but it's especially great as a big slap in the face of the MPAA.

    Also, @Mr. 62, those posters are indeed worse than the original poster for this film. Particularly, the first one takes the concept of the original Zack and Miri poster and makes it even more pornographic. Clearly the MPAA is being vindictive about this movie, or Kevin Smith & co. didn't bribe them enough...

    Good Luck Chuck practically got away with murder, in comparison.
  • nick
    haha thats great, to hell with the mpaa, they are abunch of cocksuckers anyways!
  • Bob
    seriously the mpaa is gay, i miss the old poster, but i agree with BadWasabi that they overlooked the naked stick figures
  • fanboy d
    this poster is the bestest. i think this is one of those situations where the restrictions that are forced upon filmmakers are actually a force for creative good becuse this is ultimately far more memorable...i mean i forgot all about the good luck chuck poster and it was EXACTLY the same idea. this i will never forget.

    why does every movie poster designer want homogenous designs anyway? the posters for 40-year-old virgin, knocked up, step brothers are ALL THE SAME. and these people are being paid big bucks.
  • Blackstar
    I get the feeling the title of Kevin's next film will be,

    "The Motion Picture Association of America Sucks"
  • Chimaera
    That is advertising genius at it's best, lol. Gotta love it ;)
  • Solly
    ROFL! I love this poster. Absolutely terrific. Kevin Smith, I applaud you on sticking it to the MPAA - an out-of-touch, arbitrary censorship board that has done more damage film than any other group out there! This is definitely my new comp background.
  • Disappointing. I expected better from Kevin Smith.

    If he had had more time, I'm sure he could have come up with something better.
  • Mikey M
    Drawing stick figures is getting rave reviews from people.
    Ummmm, OK!??
  • Okay, that's a pretty badass poster.
  • Gajonka
    THIS IS DUMB... REAL DUMB.

    ELIZABETH BANKS' REAL LAST NAME IS MITCHELL. BUT BANKS SOUNDS HOTTER. SHE IS A NICE LITTLE TIGHT PIECE OF ASS. SO HOT IN INVINCIBLE.

    HEY, LETS GET AN UPDATE ON "TRICK R TREAT", CREEPSHOW v V OR WATEVER IT IS, SHORTS, KIND -OF.

    I ACTUALLY WROTE THE SCRIPT FOR CREEPSHOW III,CHECK YAHOO MESSAGE BAORD FOR CREEPSHOW ii, YOU WILL SE MY ENTRY FROM LIKE 7 YEARS AGO. THEY WENT WITH A LOW BUDGET THING.

    OK, BYE.

    "Drawing stick figures is getting rave reviews from people.
    Ummmm, OK!??"

    It's not the aesthetics so much as it's the core of the writing. It's a clever poster that plays upon the issues Smith has had with getting this film by the MPAA, unscathed.

    The stick figure of Rogan really captures the look of retard in his eyes. His stick torso could be a little bigger,,,, come on.
  • LiK
    this is sad. thanks a lot MPAA, you fools.
  • Delta Assault
    Is anyone else reminded of the Internet Porn Simulator from South Park? =)
  • ezekial
    Funny poster, but the other one was a lot better. People won't recognize it's this movie when they see the trailer...
  • gocitizen
    I definitely like it, but agree with the point that you pretty much need Rogen and Banks' actually on the poster to sell it to the wider audience. Maybe they could have been photographed standing behind a camera tilting their heads to the side, jaws dropped, trying to figure out the action we can't see.

    I dunno.
  • fanboy d
    add some stick figure animation in the tv spots or throw the new poster art at the end of theatrical trailers and voila - you've marketed a movie
  • Le Pompiste
    This poster should be banned because it uses the word "titillating," which contains the word "tit," AND WE CANNOT CORRUPT OUR YOUTH WITH NAUGHTINESS.

    But seriously, this poster is awesome. I dunno, maybe they could have black-barred the stick figures' genital regions, too?
