How do you sell what is being touted as "the biggest cast ever assembled for the most outrageous comedy ever made" to audiences? Use almost all of the big stars' names on a poster with some sort of psychedelic, illustrated  woman in a bikini. That's the answer the marketing department behind Movie 43 came up with in this poster that is kind of a disaster. However, the red band trailer does a fine job on its own of selling the wild comedy, and the huge ensemble cast should get people in theaters when this one arrives in January. Frankly, I'm interested to see how this film lands after four years in the making. See the new poster below!

Here's the poster for the comedy omnibus Movie 43 from EW, but just watch the red band trailer here:

Movie 43 is a raunchy comedy omnibus featuring the directing talent of Elizabeth Banks, Steven Brill, Steve Carr, Rusty Cundieff, James Duffy, Griffin Dunne, Peter Farrelly , Patrik Forsberg, James Gunn, Bob Odenkirk and Brett Ratner. In addition, there's an all-star cast including but not limited to Kate Winslet, Elizabeth Banks, Emma Stone, Justin Long, Seann William Scott, Jason Sudeikis, Kieran Culkin, Liev Schreiber, Naomi Watts, and many, many more. The film arrives in theaters on January 25, 2013. Good?
