With The Road almost in the bag, I thought I'd do a cover for my favourite comedy of the last 10 years or so. I can't even begin to describe how much I love this movie. I may have an addiction problem to be honest.

Excellent. :thumb:

I think I would put 'Samuel L.' on one line, and have his surname below.

EDIT - Just watched the trailer - it looks hilarious - now on my 'To-Buy-List' :D

Oops, my bad. I'll get on that right away.

And yeah, it's truly hilarious.

Great start! I also love this movie, top 3 Will Ferrell movie for sure.
Just one thing... i would replace Damon Wayans for Steve Coogan since he is a big deal in the movie :)

Looking cool! :D

Maybe you could make the guys a little bit bigger and shuffle things around to bring the text up top?

Having it fade all the way to black on both the top and bottom is a bit dark for a comedy, maybe bringing the white title text to the top will let you keep things a bit brighter up there without having to sacrifice legibility?

Listened to some of Tim's suggestions and this is what I came up with. Better or worse?

Looks way better! I noticed there are no gallery images - will upload stills, png's and a TT.

I'll upload everything else once the category has been added.. will save extra work for the staff ;)

You could fade them out a bit more towards the bottom (but leave the PD badge intact).

I'd like to see you re-arrange the text a bit - names at the top, then TT, then tagline. At the bottom their exploits (a$$/Gator text). Sorry if this has already been requested, but I'd just like to see how it would look. ;)
