Jason finds this poster for the film version of Scott Smith’s excellent novel The Ruins boring, but I think it’s pretty great. The figures are so un-posed it’s almost disconcerting, I’ll grant you that, but it’s a bit like a poster for Deliverance using a shot of the four guys on the raft during happier times. I think that’s a terrific idea.

I love that poster. It’s like, “See how happy and carefree they are? Heh, heh, heh…” What a perfect snapshot of the puppylike entitlement that gets them in trouble.
