My Best Friend's Girl Movie Poster

I recently interviewed Howie Deutch, the director of the movie My Best Friend's Girl, which comes out next week. The topic: Picking a good date movie. Already "My Best Friend's Girl" is getting some buzz but not for the reasons the studio had hoped. Dane Cook, the movie's main star, is unhappy with the movie poster. Creating a movie poster can be a tough thing to do as I learned a few years back when I interviewed Tony Seineger for a piece I produced for Day to Day. He's the guy who did the Jaws poster, among many others.

But as you can see Mr. Cook seems to be somewhat cursed in terms of movie posters. He didn't really get rave reviews back in 2006 with this Employee of the Month poster either.
