Title: Recalled movie posters
Post by: Dread_Pirate_Mel on July 08, 2011, 12:28:43 AM: This subject has come up several times in various threads but I don't think there is a dedicated thread to it.

In any event, I've updated the Recalled Posters on MoviePosterCollectors (http://moviepostercollectors.com/MPC_Showcase_Recalled.html). Take a look and see if I've missed any significant ones or have any incorrect information.

Does anybody know why (or if) the Rocky Horror 10th Anniversary was recalled/withdrawn?

Also one seller is claiming that this Saving Private Ryan poster (http://cgi.ebay.com/Saving-Private-Ryan-Recalled-Orig-Movie-Poster-DblSided-/220796727648?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336882b160)was recalled. Is that correct and why?
Title: Re: Recalled movie posters
Post by: holiday on July 08, 2011, 01:14:05 AM: It's true that it was recalled, but I don't recall the circumstances. I bought my copies from Dan Rickard, and I think I have the original recall letter from the studio. For the life of me, though, I can't recall where it is. I'll try and dig it up.

Bruce last sold one in August 2010, for $22.00.

Here is the copy Bruce last sold:

And here is the current ebay "recall" copy (they look identical, IMO; both are 27x40, contain the same text, lack a ratings box and NSS information, are DS and rolled.):

I can't put my hands on the recall notice, but as I think about it, I believe it was recalled because of a printing issue in the poster - the color in the original version was not correct. I have both the recalled version and the final version and when I have a chance I'll pull them to find out what the story is.

Post by: Dread_Pirate_Mel on July 08, 2011, 03:03:03 PM: Updates:

Rocky Horror: I always assumed that the Barbie Dolls were used without authorization. I Googled that and several other sellers, including Emovie, are saying or speculating that was the reason, so that's what I'll go with unless somebody says otherwise.

Predator 2: Someone wrote me and said it was withdrawn because the poster says "Christmas" but it was actually released in November, according to IMDB. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100403/)

Last Castle: FoxNews on Sept 14, 2001 (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,34295,00.html), reported that Dreamworks withdrew it because the flag signalled distress, so that's what I'll go with.

Private Ryan: Hopefully it's something more interesting than coloration. Not much of a story there. Gotta give the people bread and circuses....

Post by: marklawd on July 08, 2011, 04:29:07 PM: Heres one I acquired recently - the withdrawn "Amex" style quad for The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle from thirty years ago. This is a stock photo.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v645/marklawd/GreatRocknRollSwindle-Amex.jpg)

It's not hard to understand why American Express sued Virgin - the poster run was ordered to be destroyed and I believe Virgin had to also pay damages of £30,000. In case it's hard to read the three blocks of wording are headed The Artist (The Prostitute), The Business (The Swindle) and The Record Company (The Pimp).

And here is the current ebay "recall" copy (they look identical, IMO; both are 27x40, contain the same text, lack a ratings box and NSS information, are DS and rolled.):
This goes a little off-topic, but is a good thing to point out here. Just because a poster doesn't have a ratings box or NSS does not make it an international version. Usually, it just means that the film hasn't been rated by the MPAA by the time the posters get printed.

So for a standard Adv/Regular campaign, 99%+ of the time you will have some combination of the following:
1. Adv (no rating), Reg (rating) - the standard approach
2. Adv (rating), Reg (rating) - the MPAA got their grubby mitts on the flick well before release
3. Adv (no rating), Reg (no rating), Reg (rating) - a common occurrence for bigger pictures, meaning that the MPAA got the pic at the last minute (Indy Jones and the Chrystal Skull was like this)
4. Adv (no rating), Adv (rating), Reg (rating) - somewhat unusual in that the studios would normally just wait until printing the regular to add the rating, but if they are fixing anything else or printing another run on the poster they might as well throw it on.

All of these posters are U.S. posters and not 'internationals'.

The company/studio credits can be helpful in determining a true 'international'. Though, I would guess that, at times, they are indistinguishable.

I don't have any particular info on the Saving Private Ryan, so I can't speak to that aspect of it.

I don't need to. I worked at DreamWorks long enough. Like you said, SPR was only reprinted because of a color scheme gone wrong. It happens all the time. Except this one was distributed, and then recalled. Here are 2 other examples of mistakes caught before the posters were sent out...

(http://www.eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Munich1.jpg)(http://www.eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Munich2.jpg)

The first poster was never distributed because Spielberg was afraid people would think Bana wanted to commit suicide. So a tagline was added to explain what he was doing.

(http://www.eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Ring11.jpg)(http://www.eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Ring12.jpg)

They added the lines to make it more videotapish and blurry.

These posters exist, I have them in my collection, but they were not released. There are tons of other examples. So the coloring scheme on SPR is nothing special.

I thought they had wanted to use that design for general distribution in the US after Sundance but couldn't - I know it was printed for use in Australia. I don't know enough about this so better leave it off your web page.

The towers resemble male genetalia.

However, I thought that whole stinko mess erupted during the video release. I have a laserdisc with the penis towers on the cover art. My recollection was that Disney had to recall a ton of videocasettes and re-sleeve them.

Doesn't make sense that this would have happened after recalling the theatrical poster for the same thing.

This is spot on. And, it's all about the oddly placed, oddly highlighted, and particularly phallic small tower in the middle.

Not a recalled poster, as such.

Also, I believe that Fugitive was a wilding release, unless someone, somewhere has a double sided copy. All the ones that I've come across were single-sided.

Post by: raulleaf on July 10, 2011, 09:14:46 PM: Cataloging my rolled stuff and ran across two DS copies of Version A of The Thin Red Line (TRL) versus Version B. Ted pointed out that Version A was perhaps a recalled poster:

Hey, Charlie, per Phil Edwards, one of the poster gurus at Ari's NSFGE,

"Yes, we have one of the recalled one sheets of THIN RED LINE that has Travolta's name on it. At the time I heard it was upon Travolta's request due to a fear of over-exposure with other films coming out around the time of TTRL, and his desire that he not be seen as a star of a film in which he has a relatively small role.

Certainly in Australia, the version shown still had Travolta's brief scene intact."

Here is the link to the entire thread: http://stylec.yuku.com/topic/2597

These came from an American theater. They were in the tube with the film title on the label as shipped to a Lowes theater. Recalled?

Post by: agentprovocateur on August 30, 2011, 11:22:04 AM: I just found a PDF I saved of an ebay auction that ended on 10 April 2007 for the recalled Rodriguez/Tarantino 'Grindhouse' double sided 1sheet... it went for $405 (£204.25, now that's an exchange rate I'd like now!).

(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/Grindhouserecalledds1s.jpg)

This is the explanation the seller gave for the poster:

'This is a RARE and SCARCE 1-sheet for the upcoming Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill) & Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) film, Grindhouse, which stars Bruce Willis, Rose McGowan, Marley Shelton, Rosario Dawson, and Kurt Russell.

PLEASE NOTE: This poster is a very scarce variant version, which differs from the final release version. This version was pulled by the studio, ordered returned or destroyed. This recalled version says "2 1/2 hours of pure dynamite!" Instead of "Two great movies for the price of one!" on the final release poster. I believe they pulled the poster because the movie now clocks in at over three hours, so it’s a little less accurate. Please refer to the image in the listing, and compare it to the other Grindhouse posters listed.

This poster is very hard to find, and has some slight edge wear along the upper right side (from when it was originally shipped) . It is in nice NM condition otherwise. This doublesided one-sheet poster is 27 X 41 and in excellent condition. No tape marks or pinholes whatsoever. If you have any questions about this poster, please e-mail me.

This is a studio-issued poster, the real deal, not a copy or reproduction.'

The seller was located in Berkeley, CA, United States.

I know there was a thread where this was discussed in-depth but I couldn't find it so thought this would be as good a place as any to post!

Wasn't this one recalled? Harrison Ford objected to being "wanted for murder" rather than his screen character, Dr Richard Kimble.

Rejected tite in Italy......I guess they wanted to capitalize on FoFs Italian title , to emphasise it was another Lee movie.

Italian release :

-Fist of Fury (native Italian title "Chinese Fury")
-Big Boss (native title "Chinese Fury strikes again")
-WotD (x-mas '73 release perhaps.....no info whatsoever ??)
-EtD (Jan '74 release)

U.K :

-FoF
-BB

-WotD

Germany :

-BB
-FoF
-EtD

Japan :

Indonesia :

Yugo :

-BB/EtD/WotD , all prolly 1974-75
-FoF '78

Only SE Asia (H.K , Sing , Malay , Philllippines) and various Chinatowns saw Way of Dragon before Lee died......

Post by: Through the Stones on July 21, 2012, 12:47:47 AM: Is that why that silver foil 007 was recalled!? I ALWAYS wondered if I had something cool with that one... it was handed to me in my theater from an Airborne Express driver and it went home with many weeks later...

Also, my understanding of the Spiderman advance recall was due to licensing issues with the Chrysler building? Yes, no?

Others I can think of form my time in the theaters include:
- Titanic Summer advance - I heard it was recalled because the film release date was changed due to Harrison Ford not wanting such heavy competition against Air Force One
- Star Wars 1997 Special Edition - Return of the Jedi was moved ahead a week from March 7th to March 14th (I think they missed a print strike deadline because some of the CG wasn't done?). Both the ADV and ROTJ one sheets were re-printed and sent out. Oddly, my friends 12 plex only got a small green sticker with the new date and a letter telling them to put it over the date. I got a new double sided Version E with the new date. Does anyone know if Version F was ever released double sided? I have a single sided and have NEVER seen one double.
- Gone with the Wind 1997 re-release had the wrong release date. Our came to the theater with a new sticker already on it - I have it and spent half an hour one day peeling it off perfectly with no residue left behind

I haven't had a chance to read 9/10ths of this forum but do you define recalled as in a studio actually recalls the posters or requests to have them destroyed (which seems more logical)? Or just re-releasing them in a corrected state with no explanation?

As I understand, the studio normally just sends a replacement poster for "recalled" posters and rarely checks or requires that they be destroyed. For example, the Gone With The Wind style "Empire Strikes Back" poster was quickly replaced after Billy Dee Williams complained about his absence from the poster but was not really "recalled."

One exception is the Pulp Fiction "Lucky Strikes" one sheet. (http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,2109.0.html)Miramax fined theaters $10 for each poster not returned. Presumably most were actually returned since they are extremely rare.

I have this Batman Returns, which was apparently recalled because DC comics didn't like the design

Actually this poster was recalled and then re-issued with the date June 19 added beneath "Returns." Some critics and theater owners complained because of the poster's minimalist design saying that they could not make out the Bat symbol and get what the poster was promoting. I worked at a movie theater at the time both posters were released and I have the first one that was issued without the date.

To be honest, it is seen only on a line in an ebay seller's advert.

It may or may not be recalled, in the same way the other dated posters from this series may or may not have been withdrawn. There are five US released posters (to my current knowledge). The only possible reason for supposing it is recalled is because it is the one date that does not have a corresponding '..in IMAX' tag line poster version, a la October and November.

Chinese whispers, for want of any further knowledge.

The recalled poster is the first US version, although this seems more like a quick replacement (new ones arrive), rather than an actual recall (send old ones back). The replacements were sent out almost immeadiately - so quickly that some theaters hadn't recieved the 'no date' version, by the time the 'dated' version arrived...
Title: Re: Recalled movie posters
Post by: skyjackers on August 07, 2012, 12:07:23 PM: I guess that makes sense. So the reason for that was they just wanted the date adding rather than not liking the design as previously stated?

Yes. They shipped the dated poster to theater owners with instructions to return or destroy the non-dated one. If they didn't like the design it would have made no sense to print it again with the date. The general consensus about the poster artwork was not well received though. The reaction was that it was too plain and boring and some people could not make out the image of the bat symbol to know what it was advertising.

Predator 2: Someone wrote me and said it was withdrawn because the poster says "Christmas" but it was actually released in November, according to IMDB. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100403/)

Mel, that is correct. The release date was changed from December to November. The advance poster was recalled because it said "Hunting Season opens again... this Christmas" to simply "Coming Soon"

A second poster featuring a less attractive image still of the Predator had the corrected date "He's in town with a few days to kill... this Thanksgiving." Personally, I liked the artwork featured on the Advanced poster much better.

This character poster for Sin City: A Dame to Kill For was recalled. According to this article (http://www.firstshowing.net/2014/weinsteins-spark-buzz-with-sexy-mpaa-banned-sin-city-2-poster/): "it was deemed to be too sexy for a sanctioned release by the MPAA 'for nudity — curve of under breast and dark nipple/areola circle visible through sheer gown.' I wonder if any were sent to theaters? It's an excellent poster. 8)

Hi Charlie,

I don't think I have seen the version Neo posted, but then again maybe I have and didn't pick up on it as the difference is quite small. The edited version (where Eva's top is less sheer and the outline of her breast is less prominent) is available as a double sided international and US poster.

Original version:

Edited version that exists as a physical poster:
