Madeline said i think movie-tie-in covers are contractually obligated
to look like [ __ ]. Hi it's Divya G what does the g stand for? The g stands for going
to be dramatic over things that don't matter. Welcome to the premise of my channel it's crusty,
enjoy yourself. Movie tie-in covers are basically the movie cover version
of the source material book. They have a purpose right and here's how i know they work. How i live
now by Meg Rossof. It's giving very early pioneer of the john green illustrated crayon looking
aesthetic. 13 year old me would look at this and say eh nah. 12 13 year old me really saw this
orange angsty cover saw the girl on the front with their headphones in that said "music on world off"
and said yeah let's read this book about incest! Like that's kind of the point in it like i'm like
not to get people to read books about incest- it's to get modern audiences to connect with the
original source material. Babes it's marketing 101 innit. They attract a certain type of reader
audience buyer... some ruined my life! The great gatsby turned not so great. Celestial Eyes by
Francis Cugat. It's a piece that Hemingway called "garsih". He was relatively known he received the
commission for the piece whilst the manuscript for the great gatsby was still underway. Sad apathetic
eyes, a bright lip floating in the dark blue hues of the night sky perched above the flashy yellow
lights of the city. Now there's many theories around the meaning of this painting whether
the naked woman's in the eye foreshadow the lust for Dasiy or whether the famous green light in
this painting which also in the shape of like a falling tear "sets the foreground of how gatsby
has misplaced idealism". The art is definitely striking whether you like it or not it's iconic
and then we have leonardo dicaprio! It has that 1920s funky art deco moment going on. It also
has leonardo dicaprio on the hunt for the next 25 year old that he's gonna date. Other a-list celebs
are just... there. "As to whether the new dicaprio edition of gatsby would be socially acceptable to
carry around in public mr kasim of mcnally jackson offered a firm no. I think it would bring shame he
said to anyone who was trying to read that book on the subway". Never let me go never let me go.
I've always wanted to read this just because of the young kid on the cover because i'm like
what does this have to do with the story? If you look at the movie tie-in you wouldn't think
"oh this is a harrowing and bleak dystopian about people who are cloned and bred for the purposes of
harvesting their organs". No i think oh yeah miley cyrus is gonna sing the climb someone's gonna
get ill or go off to war and there's gonna be a will they won't they love stories. Six of crows
this is what i wanted this is the pastels and this is what i got! Shadow and bone. It's all right,
all right i don't really care that much about the story anyway but the cover is fine it's just a
less yassified version of basically every single ya fantasy cover. Murder is one thing but this is
a crime. Is this a heist? Like it's six of crows let me just let me just reiterate that for you
it's six of crows okay but they just decided oh let's let's have three(!). I get that Wylan
wasn't really in the adaptation but this nina erasure! I'm not going to talk about Matthias
because i know that this is like maybe slightly unpopular opinion but he's always
kind of like nazi-esque vibe and i know that he changed or whatever but like i'm still not-.
Someone also suggested after but the original cover looked like this i'm like there babes
there's anything is an improvement. Bella where are you going loca? Twilight. I love how they
just knew that robert pattinson was gonna sell to horny teens and 40 year old moms. I think for some
reason his head looks like double the size of hers and it looks like he's becoming more human
as his arm goes down but that could also just be the shadow. New moon this is a master
piece! We've got shirtless man just menacingly coming closer to Bella who's too busy being
wrapped up in this pedo's arms. Bella always just looks like a prisoner in this situation
it just looks like she's being held captive against her will and we just have Edward
as the moon. He's just gonna start singing like bear the big blue house gooodniiight good niight-
This sticker that says exclusive poster inside so what's gonna happen when you don't have the poster
anymore? Then it's just a lie. Just looks like someone broke into their family photo shoot album
and then just said just stick it on! One of my friends Srushti said perks of being a wallflower i
love the original yellowish greenish cover i think it's very eye-catching it's eclectic,
it stands out and i love the fact that you have like dress pants his shoes just like
tucked shyly into the corner. And i also like the wonky text it adds a lot of character to it.
I know my friends really really hates this i don't think it's the worst well i just think
where's the flavor? Um my friend Srushti said that it just screams "hey we have emma watson in the
cover". Annihilation. This is the before, this is the after. Now where is the flavor? where is the
spice? where is the garam masala? I love "once you start the book you won't be able to stop"
i sure hope so! Isn't that the point of like every fictional book? Percy jackson and the
sea of monsters logan lerman my boy why- just king of ruining book covers! This one is funny because
logan in this poster was a 20 year old man pretending to be a 13 year old boy. Every movie
poster you've ever seen just decapitated heads looking in different directions. Dune. Covers
that ruined my life now i haven't read or seen it but the this cover i i just love it. Someone said
to me they hate The Martian "it's just the dude's face he has so many pores i would always cover up"
and i thought like what pres? And i have the book with me and then i searched it out
you know how sometimes people will leave you at the club? his buddies left him on
mars so it's like it's just peak is like leave my mans alone! He doesn't have any oil blotting
sheets he's too busy growing potatoes with his [ __ ]. Forget Nars he's got that mars that was
not a good joke but anyway um. It's so simple yeah it's beautifully executed super effective.
Hey it's matt damon! It's freaking cassandra clare again. City of bones all right original
cover how can you make jace's jaundice king kong godzilla abs looming over the city any worse?
you do this. They don't like the ready player one cover because something just
feels off and i was like okay maybe it feels off because his legs are like a freakishly long!
Solaris i don't plan on reading it i don't care but BABES! this is giving me my penguin classic
version cover of after. inferno by dan brown this is not one of those things that i will never read.
If i had a book that had this obnoxious red banner across the top i would be pissed. Someone said
the fault in our stars but i kind of like it. I think the common denominator across all of this
is just it's just faces! There's like a fine line between what works and what doesn't. They optimise
the movie posters for the purposes of selling a movie but they don't necessarily change it
to the format of a book which i think i know they're doing kind of the same purpose but
the style is just different slap it on and call it a day. We kind of lose all the character and
art and history and richness. There are like movie time covers which i actually prefer over
the original if you'd like me to talk about those just let me know! Yeah if you have any suggestions
for movie covers which are crimes against humanity then be sure to let me know in the comments! Yeah
follow me on twitter on instagram so that you know next time i have one of these poll things
you can give your opinion. Well yeah thank you for watching i hope everybody had a decent decision
christmas if you enjoyed any part of this crust like subscribe below notification comment would be
appreciated i'm changing my goal of 100k it's been like eight years since i've been on youtube and
i really just wanna cross that line just i should just stopped blabbing at the end but hug okay wait
chantelle i loved you
but you cheated with jonathan from church! babes i'm just doing what i do best- hating
