Can We Just Say

We at the Project like to let you decide. We post it, you decide, everyone's happy. But the Project is bothered by the fact that 2 whole people now have had the presence of mind to snap a shot of this poster, but neither of them had the wherewithal to cough up $15, take the damn thing off the wall, take the plastic off of it and get a really good picture as well as a nice little (and potentially valuable) souvenir. Why not buy the thing? Why drive to the place, bring your camera, snap a shot, run home, upload it to the web, register with a forum and post it, but not bring $15 and fit in buying the thing, and take better photo(s), dust if for fingerprints, hold it up to the light, let Kinkos have their way with it...?

We can think of a few reasons why someone would want the poster to remain distorted and in the Frank and Sons fine establishment. We can even concede that it's possible two totally random strangers also happen to both be utter and complete morons. But those former reasons strike us as way more likely. In fact, if it weren't for Paramount owning themonstrousmovie.com domain, we'd call it-[coubllsht]-a hoax.

Regardless, we don't want to give the wrong impression. Assuming Abrams and Co. can keep a lid on 1-18-08 for another 6 months (cross your fingers), we expect many of the highlights of this little adventure will invariably involve the exploits of people trying to fill in the gaps with their own creative juices.
