10 Movie Poster Cliches That Will Never Die

9. Bruce Willis Posters

bruce willis posters Have you ever noticed that Bruce Willis rarely ever looks directly at the camera in posters? Does it make him seem more bad-ass if he is glancing to the side? Since Die Hard this has been a common design for posters with Bruce Willis. Yes, there are examples of him looking at the camera - The Fifth Element, Red, The Expendables etc. but quite a lot have him looking to the side... bruce willis posters2 When you see him look at the side in a poster now it just looks like all his other films, which makes people not bother seeing it. To be fair the actual content of these films are pretty similar anyway... but still awesome! Maybe if he did more sci-fi films we would see him in cooler posters. Anyway, these types of posters won't be going away any time soon - Bruce is still gripping onto his bad-ass reputation and with Die Hard 5 less than a week away, his action status could last a long time. And seriously, he never stops looking away at the camera; die hard
