orza July 6, 2015 Share July 6, 2015 I think the image is effective. As some of the photos posted show, it is attention-grabbing even at a distance and is simple enough that people driving past will remember it better than a picture of an actress in heavy makeup and feathers. It doesn't have to relate to coming story lines. It just needs to get people's attention so they also see the show logo next to it and ask "What's that all about." and it does that. It reminds some of some of the stuff I have seen at CeBIT and at Comdex back in the day - big eye-catching billboards and posters that have nothing to do with computers but they draw you over to the company's booth in the hope of getting some cool swag.

Curio July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 I think the difference between the two posters is the context and stylization. In the Snow White poster, we immediately know it's Snow White because the text flat out says her name, the fairy tale describes her as having "lips as red as blood," and there's a lot more detail in the photograph (you can tell she's wearing a necklace and feathery gown) even though it's very over exposed. You can recognize that's Ginny, whereas you can't even tell that's Jen in the Dark Swan poster. I appreciate them attempting to go more abstract with the Dark Swan poster, but I feel like they fell flat in the execution. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3828-the-storybrooke-daily-mirror-ouat-in-the-media-cons-and-other-real-life-encounters/page/34/#findComment-1301679

I guess by that point Adam knows that Mark gets a bit overexcited and hasn't really figured out that Once fans obsessively stalk the social media accounts of EVERYONE involved in the show's production, even the lady who's in charge of the Storybrooke foliage, to look for spoilers. Anyway, a lot more "regular" fans follow Adam's Twitter than Mark's, so even if Mark had already published the title many probably haven't seen it. Emile and Colin are so cute.

Scott is a writer on the show, and therefore works for Adam and Eddy. He is an ancillary representative of the show, whether he likes it or not, so when he posts problematic tweets about the show, fans have the right to question why it goes unnoticed by the show runners. It seems like Colin gets along well with most of the cast members. He seems like an easy going guy, so that's probably why, but it does make things more fun when you know the cast members get along.

Curio July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 The arrangement kind of makes sense. Just from a sales perspective, they're probably banking on Regina's cray cray fanbase to purchase the most action figures, so she's front and center. And then Emma, Hook, and Rumple also have strong fanbases, so they're also near the center. And then you have the other main characters who don't have as large of fanbases to buy their action figures on the outside.

Shanna Marie July 10, 2015 Share July 10, 2015 Isn't that an old promo photo that they must have Photoshopped the new characters into? It looks familiar. I think it's one that at one point had Regina in the middle as the dividing line between "real world" characters like Emma and Henry on one side and the fairy tale people on the other side. But you lose that distinction when they add the other characters wherever they fit. So it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with who they think is more important or even who will sell more. It's probably just using an available photo. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3828-the-storybrooke-daily-mirror-ouat-in-the-media-cons-and-other-real-life-encounters/page/34/#findComment-1312224
