I liked the first poster better. The trailer however is still horrendous. This is hollywood you’re trying to sell it to, if anything, you should turn the gay up!
I liked the first one better…more glamour.
Why not put the kiss between Matthew Goode and Colin front and center, instead..
I can’t believe that TF is dictating their shying away from the gay factor.
“Julianstark” , am I missing something? Do you mean that Revolutionary Road has something gay in it or just that the “A Single Man” posters’ design remind you of RR’s posters?

I’m still getting a Revolutionary Road vibe from these posters. They’re all-too-obviously trying to conceal the “gay factor”

Well, it’s a big improvement compared to the previous poster. It has a certain retro feel. I like it.
TWC will hide the “gay factor” no matter what, that’s for sure.

Again, I think it’s less of “let’s hide the gays!” and more “let’s highlight the Moore!”

At least Colin is front and center in this one, where he belongs. JM is good in this, but it’s Firth’s film, and he’s incredible in it.

I liked the last one better. It had more glamor and seemed a lot gayer. This one looks like the press release for a 1970s television movie.

Huge improvement, and is it just me or does firth resemble Marcello Mastroianni in this picture?

Kevin, when I first saw the trailer, I also thought he bore a striking resemblance to Marcello Mastroianni.
