They seem to think that if the actors look somewhat sexy on the poster that the film will sell better than if they'd done the story justice. sigh. Clearly the marketing people didn't do their research.

It's like, the guy (I presume he's Four) is at the front looking all manly while Tris, THE MAIN CHARACTER, is in the background sticking her bum and boobs out! Grr. I think it would be a much better poster if Tris was crouching at the front and Four wasn't even on it.<br /><br /> Great post, Zoë!mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13325673973210555338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098049071459822748.post-28320086631201511862013-11-13T02:00:17.545-08:002013-11-13T02:00:17.545-08:00Had to comment again because I can't stop gigg...Had to comment again because I can't stop giggling.
