My Favorite Movie Poster

Here is my favorite movie poster for this week. Most of my liking to this piece has to do with nostalgia and bias. Back when I was a kid, I loved the Spider-man movies to death(even this one). For what it's worth, it completely represents the theme of the movie or the plot. Spider-man is having an inner and outside conflict with himself. "The great battle lies within." says it all. Not too mention, the branding font for the quote and the logo are trademark Spider-man designs. Also, the poster makes me believe this would absolutely take place in the movie. My only complaint is that Spider-man should not be holding black web because he is not in the black suit. Maybe it was a design error? Ignore the quality of the actual movie and just appreciate the quality of a nice poster.

"Misunderstood" Plot

In a world/in a country/in a state/in a town/in a house/in a kitchen... 1 man child. 1 tomato. Because he has nothing better to do with his extravagant life, Arnold  picks up a tomato for breakfast. Before putting the tomato back down, Arnold says, "Man I love this vegetable... question mark?(He actually says question mark) But technically your a fruit?" Now this age-old debate lingers in his head for who knows long. He sets the tomato on the counter and tries to come up with the quintessential identity for this tomato. What Arnold doesn't realize is that he discovers more about himself while attempting to get to know the tomato more. Will Arnold eat/cut the tomato? Will breakfast ever be served? Does he still live with his mom? Probably. At the end of the day, they both are two misunderstood beings.
