Tiny Skunk. Are there any skunks are small as squirrels? Google says no.

That skunk must be very dense though. Since that system of gears is in balance, I am forced to conclude that:
Skunk + Bucket = Squirrel + Diamond + Anvil
at least as far as weight goes. Obviously, in all other areas (comedic, socioeconomic, etc.) the squirrel wins hands down.

Good Gawd swo, you should warn those at work that they are about to encounter a comment that will make them involuntarily explode with laughter.

The way that tagline is ordered is just confusing, although I've always loved Mila Kunis' eyes.

The bewildering thing is that the cover of Boot Camp was originally this:

Did someone say "This movie will sell much better without a nice rack on the cover. Crop it out!"?

Perhaps they scrapped it because the Photoshopping on machete man's hand is distractingly terrible. Of course, I haven't seen the movie, and maybe what's so terrifying about machete man is that he has the hands of a muppet...

And while you're editing the cover, Tit Camp is also a better title... unless of course you are Bunuel.

It looks like something out of the opening credits of The X-Files.

I can't even count how many laws of physics are being violated on that cover.

It's not the image, but the terrible way its presented.
This works fine:

That red digital background just makes the whole thing look amateurish.

I have a Japanese poster with the exact red image. It's fine with me, and you know, the disc inside ain't a coaster.

Re: Worst DVD Covers...ever! (Part 3-D)
Had to check IMDB to figure out which girl is supposed to be Lopez's daughter (it's the second one from the left). I also found out she was born in Mexico and is presumably Mexican. Does it say something about images of ethnicity in the media that despite all that she looks like a white girl from Kansas with dark hair?dx23 wrote:

No, we're missing the apparent Siamese twins on the right. Where does blondie end and the brunette begin, exactly?
And since when does George Lopez have Adam Lambert's hairdo?

The tagline reminds me of that classic Melanie Griffith voiceover in Shining Through: 'I knew it was a Friday when I said goodbye to Ed, because the next day was a Saturday.'dx23 wrote:
Meanwhile, Chris Tucker turns into a fish, Ice Cube judges you for buying the DVD, and, um, two people smoke, in a car, with the windows rolled down. There's a lot going on - it's very rich.
