Besides that being a racist change, sm I the only one who despises movie posters with dozens of people looking in random directions? Can we just have nice artistic posters, please?

They do make the kind of posters you like you just don’t see them outside of promotional material.

The reason being is that the many faces orange blue posters literally are gaming (most people’s) brains into engaging with the poster.

Humans like faces and are drawn to them.

That being said, I’ve seen some really nice dune posters where it’s like a backdrop of the desert with the mc and lots of negative space

Yes, love those posters. And with dune, for example, they’re much more prominent. You’ll really find that one. For Disney stuff? No chance.

What would you say if I told you they are artistic, it’s just not a style you like

I mean, sure, they are. But they’re formulaic and uncreative corporate art

Disney’s treatment of Finn was the second most painful part of the echoes of the force trilogy

I mean there are quite a few differences in that poster.

It is ridiculous to expect Designers to take into account how large specifically black people must be and that they are the only ones that can’t be changed if a poster gets redesigned internationally.

The Chinese poster obviously emphasises battles and military and in this case that was prioritised.

If they did it to be racist wouldn’t they just remove me, or make him actually small? He is still quite big.

Companies don’t get enough flak for pandering whoever lines their pockets.

It happens to be popular today in North America to appear inclusive and progressive and they feign it and it somehow works.

These companies don’t give a shit about you or your issues. They just want to cash out on you thinking that they do (and you thinking that they deserve your support).

(And yes, I get it, any support is good support) just keep in mind that these companies care more about the money and will always pander to their audience.

The boys at Red Letter Media coined a term for this: “Passive Progressive”. Hits the nail on the head for me!
