But after posting my review, I was reminded that there were a series of teaser posters for Pandorum that took a much more funky, surreal approach:

I don't know if these were any more enticing to the average moviegoer (probably not - and doesn't that last one look like Aerosmith's Steven Tyler?) but I do think they were more eye-catching, at least. But the fact that they vanished from theater lobbies to make room for this:

...wasn't a great move. Having seen the movie, I think it's a shame that they couldn't figure out a better way to sell what's actually a pretty cool film. Of course, it wouldn't be the first time a worthwhile movie went ignored in theaters but Pandorum seems to have invited failure more than most.

So true about that final poster. I stared at if for a long time before I could even figure out what it was. Even worse, the film has so many strong images to choose from that they ignored. I really liked Pandorum. The twists really work and don't feel pushed and as derivative as it's playing field seems at first, it does a great job of adding its own signature. I was so afraid that they would botch it up at the end but everything fell right into place.-Unk
