Disturbing Teaser Poster Rumors

[Artmaul]

Well guys, I spoke to one of my contacts tonight, and they have declared that the banner image of Anakin outlined in Vader silhouette in front of the Death Star background with smoke is in fact the real deal, or at least a close representation. I say the latter simply because this person hasn't had time to see the image posted on the internet, but what he described is actually dead on.

Now if this information is inaccurate, I will be highly pissed off, because DP knows I am reliable when it comes to this shit, and it will only be a case of yet another one of my insiders with their head in their ass.

I was also told that theaters have these banners already, and that you should start seeing them up by next Friday, with a teaser 3 weeks away from today. Doing the math, this puts the teaser release on November 5th, which happens to coincide with the opening of The Incredibles.

I should have one of these babies in my hands by next Friday, and if that's the case, then we can be guaranteed of the teaser release.

The teaser description given out at TFN is also supposedly right on the money.

All for now...

Thanks for the info man.

Well, it 's like I've been saying lately...

The AOTC teaser poster was pretty bad.

Anakin's braid on wrong side, wearing Jedi clothes that were the wrong color, and a red lightsaber just thrown in there.

Even though this one isn't much better, at least the visual makes sense.

I have trusted Artmaul in the past and I don't see why to change that now.. so did art department have a day off when this was created?

[Zidious]

but I'll take [TF.N] over a bunch of elitist geeks

Then please do.

I'm guessing someone got a description of the real poster then made a picture and sent it to Josh.

I thought same and that is only reasonable explanation.

Or if that poster we have seen is the real deal, then the art department should be fired... even I could do better one and my photoshopping skills are pretty amateur.

Edit; Anyways, I requested few teaser posters for Finnish SW -portal from our importer ... if I'll get them, then we'll know for sure.

One of my best friends actually knows Tom, and he is as tight lipped as they come. So, any information from Tom should be disregarded. He loves his job too much.

...and to think, this will all end come next May. * sheds a tear

No it won't... don't forget the tv series.. there are lot of things to be spoiled!

[Ziggy]

Bleh. I loathe the idea of SW becoming watered down and "Trek-like".

Unless they can somehow maintain the movie quality on TV, which I doubt, most people aren't going to be following the series with half as much anticipation as the features.

I still hope that any live-action TV series plans will be scrapped.



The pre-film excitement ends this May. *sheds a tear as well

[Artmaul]

Well, I honestly don't believe a comic artist would necessarily know that kind of information. No offense to Tom, but my source has proven to come through for me personally in the past, and with this kind of stuff.

But, if what I am hearing is erroneous, then I will apologize. I am a man of my word, and I am not doing this based on personal opinion or some other motive usually shared by wanna-be insiders.

I share what I do with MF, because I like you guys, and I trust my sources.

Sometimes shit happens, and things aren't 100% accurate, but such is the inherent flaw in a gossip line.

[Artmaul]

Well, I'm at a point where I am indifferent to this stuff. So I guess that's a good qualifier for me to come out and speak for or against something.

I have a very blaise attitude toward anything Star Wars so that I can ignore what I don't like, and love what I do like.

I would love to drop the rationalle behind why I trust my source, but that would serve no purpose in the long run.

Well its Friday.....So lets hope that all goes the way it should be.

[bearvomit]

Josh just posted that the poster is a fake. big shock huh?

"Interesting ... just heard from a friend. This isn't the one ...

JG"

[Artmaul]

Well my contact hasn't come through yet. It is still unconfirmed that the poster is a fake. Despite what JG says. Based on who my contact is, I am still betting money on him versus anything Josh Griffen is told or says.


I'm actually getting a little pissed off here. It seems that I am being mocked by a few people. Read my first fucking post. There is nothing stated in there that has not been officially debunked.

I give real information. If it turns out wrong, it ain't me. So save your fucking sarcasm for somebody else. You people are lucky MF exists and is a hub of the net's most reliable SW peeps. Go back to TFN and swallow everything Josh Griffen has to tell you.

And one more thing. Josh Griffen thought I was full of shit. That's why I left



Final update. No poster yet, but the real poster is similar to the Vader silhouette. It's darker, and slightly different. A better composite job. This is what I said in my first post. Same background.

For those who hate the design, I'm sorry.

For those who only hate the shitty photoshopping, everything's ok.

[Artmaul]

From what I understand:

Background is same
Composite is better
Layout is same
Smoke still there
Darker and richer.

Keep in mind this is info from somebody who doesn't have much time to analyze differences.

[Artmaul]

That's a possible take. I just know that the real deal is very similar to that. How similar depends on my source's own point of view.

[CoGro]

I thought I read that Cinescape reported it was a legit concept teaser poster, but was rejected.

I personally think the idea will be similar but the design different.

Anybody, can make that statement.......It dosnt require any insider contact to state something like that.

Second of all........Josh's info on the trailers in the past has been right on the dot, from the start .. more people over at TF.N has insiders contacts than over here so save you'r shit for somebody else fool. I dont care about no fucking teaser poster .. the trailers are the one's that matters.

Anbody, can join the website and say that they got insiders contacts .. unless people have been around for over a year I don't trust their socalled *insiders contacts* more than I trust thier mothers statements on this matter. You havnt even been around for a year and allready claming to have insiders contacts .. which you clearly havn't!! So save you'r shit about TF.N and Josh for you'r fucking family shithead.

[Raz Zaphon]

sidious you shouldnt have said that im sorry its out of my hands now

[Insert Username]

Second of all........Josh's info on the trailers in the past has been right on the dot, from the start ..

Wait, you mean you've seen the trailer?
Or that you haven't seen it and just believe Josh is right about it?
Because I don't think anyone knows shit until they've seen it.

[Artmaul]

Sidious, you're a fucking tool. You don't know shit about me, and you are cordially invited to go suck TFN's cock since it is so great and reliable. It's assholes like you which actually prevent insiders from not posting spoilers because you are ungrateful cocks who troll the internet for bones of information, whivh even if right, you forget about immediately, always begging for more.

Hey dipshit, do you know how to read, or are you only good at sucking dick?

Sidious :

Make another post like that and you're history. If you've got a problem with another poster take it to Comms, or if you're game enough take it to FYDS.
