Considering the acclaimed director, the star power and the substantial budget, there has been a curious lack of poster promotion for THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON.

Fortunately, JoBlo reader 'Jesse W.' has rectified that, sending us nice snapshots of the two faceful solo posters and the oddly shaped side-by-side banner. Click 'em for largeness (and Brad's eyes following you everywhere), and make sure you've got some time on Christmas Day to check out David Fincher's reverse-aging love tale.

Extra Tidbit: F. Scott Fitzgerald's original short story "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" was less than 30 pages long.

I think the backwards Brad Pitt Poster is pretty cool but nothing to rave about.

Nothing to do with the plot, and they could have done something wayyyyy better than this. Where is Drew Struzan when you need him??

Why?
I'm so sick of these close up face posters that this and star trek have for example! It's like the studios said if you don't like our photoshops, we'll make it worse.

i saw Cate Blanchett's poster as soon as i got out of the BOLT screening. Pitt's poster is really cool, since he is born old to die a baby.

Mischief_3lf, the title sounds like an Edgar Allan Poe story, no? Kinda like The Purloined Letter. lol

But it's not a mystery.

Syang, we're agreed. Blanchett is very unique looking but it ain't bad. Not at all.

Well I have absolutely no idea what this movie is about. I never heard of it till now (I don't keep up on movies much anymore). But I thought these posters where great. It got my interest because they're so mysterious. And then with a title like The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, I'm really interested now. Is this a mystery movie or something? Ok it may not be but I'm just saying from the loo...

Ok it may not be but I'm just saying from the look of the advertisement, this looks like what it's going to be. Like I said I never heard of this before so this is just a first impression but I'm curious to check out more of this based on the pictures. Seriously to me, it looks like some weird scherlock holmes type think. But then the advertising could be extremely misleading.

UGLY
Cate Blanchett is a goddess, but even her beauty can't make up for these ugly and uncreative design. With so much star power and good story material, how did those guys manage to make such forgettable posters?

Posters are kind of ugh, I hope there's more.

And is it just me or does Brad Pitt look like he just walked in on Rosie O'Donnell and Rosanne going down on each other?
