From Hollywood hits to Japanese obscurities, from Oscar night to the summer season, he’s got movies on the brain — and on this blog.

A pair of great posters

Just as you can’t judge a book by its cover, you can’t judge a movie by its poster. However, if a poster has some wit and imagination, there’s a decent chance the movie itself will, too.

And that goes double for Steven Soderbergh’s upcoming film, THE INFORMANT!, which so far has had two clever posters hyping its arrival. First, there was this image of a wide-eyed Matt Damon…

I also love the fact that the exclamation point is officially part of the title.
