Love Laurent and not liking anything I'm seeing from Roman or his company, based on track record and the last 15 pages of disingenuous back peddling. Will probably try for Laurent's AP. Will deal with the FOMO if it means not throwing money into the abyss of OCE.

Best news of it all, it will be printed by probably the best screen printer in Belgium and I'll be the guy in charge of quality control

If you look at it like an art print, I agree that the quote is a little distracting. I do think it kind of works in the style of an older teaser poster, though. Credits would be better, but Mondo can't seem to do that now either. And speaking of which, I wonder how they got skunked on this property/artist combo (assuming it gets past the jpg phase).

I agree about the quote. It's kinda cheesy in the way teaser posters from that era (well, any era) were cheesy.

So issues are..

1. quote from the wrong film, and credited to the wrong character
2. cart's wheel is off
3. fruit stand doesn't resemble the fruit stand in the film
