I always thought Ferris Bueller = psychopath was a given

(???)

CoreyChops

Am I the only one amazing offended by Eminem? Ledger made the Joker gold and now this faggot is trying to ruin it. His new CD sucks and he's just trying to take a stab at the media for a "oh by the way guys, I'm still alive, remember me?!".

musicsoup

if you read my comment, you'd know you weren't alone. in fact, if you read any of the comments, you'd know you're not alone.

Considering the majority of us hate Eminem, and would probably destroy him if we could, why did you post this Peter? Did you do it because you wanted to show us what a douche Eminem is? Or do you actually like him? Do you think his new album is good? Do you think his lyrics are witty? Do you think this picture is cool and clever? Do you think his videos are funny? Are you 12? Is it 1999?

Oh no, that's right, it's 2009. And Enimen is still putting out the same crap with the same crappy videos that he was doing 10 years ago. Oh man, he dressed up as the Joker! So did 10billion other kids on Halloween. Big fucking deal "Em." Oh wow, he can make fun of people and they don't realize he's making fun of them. No, Russell Brand does that a lot better than this tool. Eminem embraces the pop culture, makes fun of it, but he is what he makes fun of, he's just too stupid to realize that.

Fuck Eminem. Fuck Eminem. Fuck Eminem.

Gajonka

Humpty Dumpty looks GREAT! EMINIEM is a TOOLBOX, and Peter, did I not see a PAGE III this weekend? Alright!!! yeah!

You rule man, thansk for these, gotta give it up for The Skeletor - a lot of misess though. Artist needs better consultants.

Paisan

Humpty Dumpty looks so creepy. But this will most likely be a B-Grade horror

Quintushalls

How does Carlos Mencia keep getting work??!

SUNand3Stars

I know, Joe Rogan needs to really kick his ass...

Infrafan

Avoiding obvious "Mexican stealing jobs like he does jokes" joke.

Sergemeister

Where can anyone get a 3D hologram poster? Is this up on Ebay somewhere? I'd pay good money for this... and yes Eminem is so emo, lately, and his new album fell short of awesome. I read on Vibe that he recorded one track from that album while he was still using. It turns out to be the only track that was decent, in my opinion. The tracks name is "Beautiful". Hopefully his follow-up is a little closer to Slim Shady LP or his earlier work.

Styl3s

Have you heard the new album? its better then eminem show and encore

songs like my mother, medicine, underground, insane, deja vu, both bonus tracks (careful what you wish for and my darling) etc are all classic em

and emo? im not a "stan" but to say he is "emo" or the cd is "decent" you are obviously not a fan of his because the album is MMLP/Eminem show material

only about 3 songs are "super pop" but what mainstream album didn't have those? im sorry but i can't stand people that know nothing about hip hop or eminem and hate on him just because he raps (that comment is to the majority of ignorant 12 year old post "oh he sucks!" without giving an actual semi-intelligent reason why)

interesting

are the songs better than "we made you"? cuz that song sucks
also eminem hardly looks like the joker in that pic

also there's some really good stuff in that inglourious basterds site

Sergemeister

I meant emo as in emotional. Not anything like My Chemical Romance or anything like that. And, to get things straight I said his album fell short of awesome. I didn't say it sucked. I still think that the only track that was decent was "beautiful". The rest of his songs sounded like he was singing them with his "Triumph the insult dog" voice.

Danisgod6491

That Terminator poster is awesome. I hate Eminem, he's so emo and his music sucks also.

DShelton

The Inglourious Basterds website is pretty sweet.

Styl3s

Meh i like eminem.. people can hate on him but i like his music.

and that 80s art.. i want that in poster form ASAP

isotope

Humpty Dumpty looks like Chucky. That 3D poster is sick though and Eminem can die for all I care.

Palmer

Awesome poster.

HarveyDing

I always figured Bueller for a psychopath, but that inference was because of Matthew Broderick, not the character. Heh, kidding. But still, what would Ferris Bueller appear to be if he weren't in high school and behaved the way he did under the terms of being an "adult?"
Anyways, there was the other article a while back that figured Ferris was a product of Cameron's imagination ala Fight Club.
So...
For all the editorials to come about Ferris Bueller's Day Off's *real* message, here's an something to think about before it's written: it's a movie and people got that Ferris was a meta-character. He talks to the fucking camera! Move on.

Samboni

I want to punch Eminem in the face

yo mommma bitch

u guys are fuckin gay for hating on eminem , shits funny take it for what it is.

Infrafan

I've seen Eminem in The Punisher comics, dressed up as the Joker, and on Family Guy. So, he's co-opting nerd culture while co-opting black culture?

Get out of our lives, Marshall!

Wasabi Steak

Em's always been a comic fan if you've checked his lyrics

His new album is pretty decent. Dre did the job on the beats.

dallegre

I agree. I don't think I could hate Eminem anymore at the moment. He's become the Friedberg/Seltzer of the music world.

Alec_Bernal

Love that Tom Whalen art piece! Humpty Dumpty looks absolutely ridiculous yet I'm posting these posters on facebook as I'm typing this... Going to see Terminator Salvation at the Arclight theater next weekend just to see that bad ass advertisement.

ANGRYBROOMSTICK

wow, Humpty Dumpty looks scary as hell, although in those posters he looks like Chucky.

I can't wait for "Shyam's Secret" it sounds intriguing.

kjell

WTF!? Humpty Dumpty looks so evil. Not expecting that

3D poster looks sick
