    FIRST!

    • Loz says:

      I expected more from you.

      • BondFan4518 says:

        Aww…I was feeling childish.
        How about I start talking about the wonders of Edo-Period Japan?

        • BondFan4518 says:

          Enough of this.

          You’re coming with me, Miss Loz.

        • fuzz on the concept says:

          BondFan, how about you embody the wonders of Kamakura-Period Zen instead, and sit silently facing the wall?

          • BondFan4518 says:

            Are you telling me to shut up?

                  Oh wow…there is nothing sexier than an overinflated, smug sense of superiority.

                  Huh. Well I guess I was wrong, wasn’t I?

                • fuzz on the concept says:

                  Let’s see, Fuzz left out the “t” in “Zen meditation” — that’s a single letter fail for Fuzz.
                  What do we have going on in flutterdick’s post?
                  ____
                  – a prepositional phrase “for moron” that makes no sense for anyone other than a moron.
                  – an “Attempt at Knowledge of Eastern Cultures” reference with a cutesy capitalization scheme, but a content replete with fluttered up ignorance: on this thread alone, Fuzz has made use of がな (kana) and 漢字 (kanji); he’s referenced Indic naga mythology; punned “Sanskrit”; taught a JAPANESE person a Japanese word; and played in the fields of Kamakura with Rinzai and Samurai imagery.
                  – flutterdicky can’t even spell JAPANESE in Japanese — the characters for “JAPAN-LANGUAGE” (日本語) are transliterated “NIHON-GO”, not “NIHON-O-GO.”
                  – and Fuzz is not a woman; but if he were, he’d wouldn’t give flutterdick the time of day, because little flutterdick can’t even flutter his own dick correctly — it’s spelled masturbate, you “for moron.”
                  ______
                  Go get a life before you come here with your flutery attempts to show off your piccolo dick.

                    wow that’s some seios arguing

                  • Queenofmuffins says:

                    Not just that, what the hell is a “karimasu”?
                    I’m assuming from the setence he meant ”分かります” (Wakarimasu)…

                    And just in case, I tried typing it in a Japanese – English dictionary:
                    Results for ‘karimasu’
                    Japanese – English
                    karimasu: No matches found

                    Attempting to write in another language FAIL.

                  • flutterdoc says:

                    I’m sorry.

                    I mistakenly thought I was conversing with people who have a LIFE.

                    The Nihongo (or Japanese, as you so eloquently put it) was grammatically correct, transliterated directly as “Don’t you understand Japanese?” I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, as I wager I’m the only one on this board who has actually studied Nihongo for three years, the only one who knows why only Ugly Americans (ignorant ones, like you, Fuzz) call Japanese “Japanese,” when the other 99.7% of Asain countries do not.

                    As to my handle, “Flutter” neither refers to something as childishly sexual or having the Mariposa-like trappings to which you refer; instead, it is short for Typical Counterclockwise Cavotricuspid Isthmus-Dependent Atrial Flutter, which I treat and cure with radiofrequency ablation (I’m a Cardiac Surgeon by trade, BTW) and have more titles after my name (real ones, I might add) that you could ever hope to even dream about, unless you consider Asswipe a title, which you obviously display with pride.

                    And comments about my manhood, fuzz? I expected something more prolific from you, a person of your obvious taste and intelligence. As Shakespeare once said, “Methinks Thou Dost Protest Too Much.”

                    Is that understandable to you, “for moron?” That was obviously an inside joke that, like any type of intelligence, you simply did not get.

                    Good luck in prison.

                      *waaaaaaaits…….*

                      Nope. Still nothing. I guess I’m just not attracted to the “pompous ass with a false sense of entitlement who thinks that education is the same thing as intelligence but more important than kindness” type.

                      Oh, and while I cannot attest to what Shakespeare might have “said” during his lifetime, I can assure you that he certainly never “wrote” that. If you are going to use quotations to purportedly insult someone, it would certainly make you look like less of an idiot if you at least bothered to get the quote right.

                      • annabellie79 says:

                        But men who research = il y a tres magnifique!
                        Is it the horn rim glasses or the musty smell of intelligence?

                        • Dragonwriter says:

                          Yes, men who research = hawt, as I said before. That’s why
                          it is so very fitting that this ignorant, self-aggrandizing, puffed up, self-important twit didn’t bother to look up the actual quote before shooting off his mouth.

                        • flutterdoc says:

                          Jesus….do you people ever sleep?

                          Dragonwriter: As I acted in Hamlet in high school, and no doubt you have some familiarity with The Queen’s English, the quote comes directly from that play, although I was using a little literary license by placing “Methinks” ahead of the sentence; as I was referring to Fuzz, I changed the idiom to masculine (albeit barely) slightly to fit the mood. But since we’ve become picky, I will ONCE AGAIN go back to the classic Bard quote, thus, “The Lady does Protest Too much, methinks.”

                          My bad. I am sorry if I offended your sensibilities. But The Bard certainly DID write that, you KNOW that, so why would you be so obtuse, hmmm? You and Fuzz gettin’ it on behind the scenes?

                          And, not to become juvenile here, but…HE STARTED IT.

                          And he insulted my second language, insulted my speaking it, and while we’re on the subject……BLOW me.

                          *snork*

                          I’m sorry…I’m laughing too hard right now to be completely coherent, but I’ll do my best.

                          You admit that you changed the quote, and yet you still maintain that “the Bard certainly DID write that”?? Do you know what a “quote” is? I think the word you are looking for is “paraphrase”, since you also deemed it necessary to change the archaic “doth” to the modern form “does”.

                          And before you question my credibility, I, too, have been in Hamlet. Not in high school, though…I performed it in New York where I was a Shakespearean actor many years ago. And since I have accumulated four degrees since then and now teach Shakespeare at a Research One university, I hope that will satisfy your elitist need for “titles” to establish authority.

                          And no thank you. I think you “blowhard” enough all by
                          yourself to satisfy your needs in that arena.

                      • Shadow says:

                        For someone so often (self-)described as more intelligent than all of f*cking humanity, you sure can’t spell a word correctly. It’s “asian”, you jackass, not “asain”. And “transliterated” is not the correct word in this case, it’s “translated”.

                        Good luck in remedial school.

                        Shadow

                      Can’t stop yourself from premature ejaculations, fluster dic?
                      .
                      You’d lose that narcissist’s wager of yours, and your own Japanese errors have already been corrected, twice. A first year student knows, “Don’t you understand Japanese?” is “Nihongo ga wakarimasen ka,” and that “wakarimasu” does not take a direct object (so no “Nihongo o,” and certainly no “Nihonogo o,” you bonehead no boner bonobo.)
                      .
                      More fitting of course would have been, “Nihongo ga dekimasen ka” — but you’ve shown you have difficulties handling your “masteurbatory” deki.
                      .
                      And yes, when speaking in a predominantly English-language post, I use “Japanese”; when speaking in 日本語 to a Japanese individual I use 日本人 or 日系人.
                      .
                      Wrong use of “prolific”; failed quotation of Shakespeare.
                      .
                      You’ve demonstrated that the number of degrees after your name doesn’t mean shit, but if you must know, I have four and have held teaching positions in three universities–including Harvard–in two different fields.
                      .
                      To come here, make mistakes, criticize others falsely, then make additional mistakes even after they’ve been corrected, and still go on to insist on your superiority — that’s evidence of having either a personality disorder or the wit of a flutterby.
                      .
                      Go back to your cocoon; you’ve got maturing to do.
                      .
                      And know, if you don’t maintain a sense of humor, you just ain’t funny.

                          Flutterdoc- stop. Please. You’re only making it worse for yourself.

                          I studied “Nihongo” for four and a half years and obviously better than you, since even the most basic student KNOWS that what you claim as correct Japanese was wrong.

                          (I’m not even going to bother correcting it, as Dragonwriter has already done a fine job.)
                          Oh, and just so you know, not just “ugly americans” call the Japanese the Japanese- I’m Australian and I do. Basically anyone who speaks ENGLISH does.
                          Despite what you think, when Japanese people are taught English, they are also taught the words “Japanese” and “Japan” and use them. They only use “Nihongo/Nippon Jin” and those such words when they are speaking in their own language. I know this because I actually live there.
                          And you’re right, in a way. The other asian countries don’t call them Japanese, as you pointed out, but that’s because they have their OWN words for them.
                          For example, Japanese person in Chinese is “Ri ben ren”. (I think that’s how you spell it, forgive me anyone here who speaks Chinese if I spelt it wrong.)

                          I found my mind in a brown paper bag within.
                          I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high.
                          I tore my mind on a jagged sky.

And of course to debate about how smart they are and how much they know about Japanese stuff. Yeah I know I said “Japanese” and I am an American but I don’t think it’s fair to call me ugly. Aren’t ugly people supposed to be the smart ones anyway, and beautiful people are stupid? *sarcasm* And I especially appreciated how fluttertub asked if anyone here ever sleeps, like they don’t have a life, but apparently he had to keep checking for new comments too!!

Our comments are obviously not worth anything when compared to his majesty’s. To think of our previous insolence. Tsk tsk tsk. He was right about one thing. In Germany it’s “Japaner.” I can’t believe we English speakers have been calling them the wrong word for so long.

                      You Fail.

                      its called Japanese because the Country is called Japan in english. it may we be
                      it may well be called Nihongo, (or even Nippongo) in asian cultures, cause cause
                      but in english, its called Japan and Japanese.

                      and its certainly not an insult.
                      Its the same as calling the Germans “German” instead of “Deutsch”

                        the post was pointed at flutter, for attempting to be pompus and beat on his chest about how much he knows Japanese, and thought its an insult to call it by its english name rather than its native tongue name.

                        im sure he refers to Germany as Deutschland also, since thats what It is called in its native language.

                      So USA is an Asain country, is that what you’re saying? ‘Cause that what the sentence implicates.

      The real fail is that Eragon was published by a major company.

      • flutterdoc says:

        No, the REAL fail is that it was supposed to be “Dragon,” and it was misspelled as “Eragon” by a couple of Chinese idiots assigned to mass produce the tag poster for the early theater promos….realizing how much trouble they could be in, they re-dubbed the name of the character “Eragon” and went with it….

        Not unlike how Nintendo in 1977 marketed a little-known video game called “Monkey Kong,” some Chinese idiots screwed THAT up, called it “Donkey Kong,” and the rest is history.

        These Chinese idiots are always screwing SOMETHING up….

        And this ends the Asian bashing for the evening.

        • a. nonny mouse says:

          theater promos? Eragon started as a BOOK!

        • lyraadrian says:

          Are you serious Flutterdoc? I really hope you realize how wrong you are. Or were you just being facetious?

        • LadiesMan217 says:

          I’m curious flutterdoc, did you just make that story up on the spot, or what? Because it’s hard to believe that you read that somewhere, I can’t think of any educated person that would ever believe that story…

        • thanatos says:

          Wikipedia FAIL!

        • Kurt says:

          And Donkey Kong was made by Nintendo, which is a japanese company you racist jackass.

        • flippetyred says:

          Are you serious dude? Are you joking, or are you really a racist and an idiot? “Eragon” is a fantasy novel by Chris Paolini who lives in Montana. Eragon is the name of the main character. Get your facts straight before you embarrass yourself again. Yours was an even bigger fail then the Fail you commented under.

    • Jamie says:

      I call that a WIN!

    • bill says:

      you fail

    • Anon Nymous says:

      Uhm I dont get this pic

    • shitkoks says:

      Obvious sex win. Im first because I commented on your first comment. So I am the first at commenting directly to the first comment, FIRST!

    • GoingDown says:

      Yep, Japan is cool.

  2. BondFan4518 says:

    SECOND!

  3. BondFan4518 says:

    THIRD!

  4. Statler says:

    Forth

  5. dolt says:

    took a while but i get it now

  6. Morgan says:

    I don’t think this is a fail… It seems more like a WIN!

  7. ghouck says:

    Fedor by armbar!!!

  8. SD says:

    I dont understand how thats a placement fail….>_>

    • Fractal says:

      Read the letters the logos spell. Then add them together. Then take note of the comment above each poster.

  9. Bo says:

    If I worked in that theater, I would have put those up like that on purpose. And then wait till te first complaint.

  10. Alex says:

    I dont get it.

  11. Guy says:

    I don’t get it.

  12. spenceroon says:

    omg, that took me too long to notice

    but imo, thats a poster placement win

  13. LogicalDash says:

    I bet 2 internets that the placement was intentional.

  14. Lol says:

    Why is this a fail?

  15. Guiseppi says:

    Fail.

  16. Glitch says:

    You know this was done on purpoe, probably by some bored employee

  17. kevin says:

    so what’s the fail ? I still don’t see it.

  18. Tom Trifik says:

    If all 3 movies opened on the same day…
    Which one would you go see first?

  19. Fitch says:

    Fail to see the fail in this one I’m afraid. All the movies opened in 2006.

  20. Kos says:

    Now, that’s what I mean by “coming soon”!

  21. Kath says:

    Lol, those mischeivous cinema employees :D

  22. DarkFox says:

    Intern getting fired in 3… 2… 1…

  23. CGP says:

    I still cannot understand why this would be a fail OR an intentional “win”. Were the release dates too far apart? What would be the point of putting these up in any particular order as a “mischievous cinema employee”? Seriously, can someone PLEASE explain why this is supposed to be entertaining in any way whatsoever?

    • Mike says:

      Please tell me you’re kidding… it’s been spelled out for you in previous posts. Plus, each movie poster only has one letter to focus on… even the mentally challenged can put those letters together and get a chuckle.

  24. Danmara says:

    Are you sure this was a fail? Looks like a subliminal success to me.

    Funny though. :D

  25. nipcones says:

    I’ve seen this before. But I just noticed… “Coming Soon”.

    Now it’s twice as funny.

  26. K.Adam says:

    Fail? I don’t think so. If I had to place these posters, I would surely do the same thing.

  27. fictionalsleep says:

    Bonus fail for the movies involved.

  28. Richie says:

    100th!

    *Rollseyes* Why the f**k do people bother to make stupid comments like “First”. WHO GIVES A FLYING F**K?

    That would be all. Thank you please.

    (I apologise now if there are any errors with spelling, because I know how fussy people are with it on ‘Fail Blog’.)

  29. proteus says:

    One Hundred and Thirteenth!

  30. joe says:

    I don’t get it

  31. Viernest says:

    you spoiled all the fun

  32. drunk says:

    I drink too much ;( and my mind is litteraly worth nothing … i even can’t see sex in front of me. Please kill me …..

  33. Jack Power says:

    I’m sorry. This is WIN. Some teenagers working at the theater saw these posters and decided to put them like that intentionally. And since I have the sense of humor of a teenager, this is 100% WIN!

  34. Bee says:

    I think that’s a poster placement WIN!!!

  35. nacho? says:

    taco

  36. Lakiamia says:

    Subliminal message WIN! (Beats the hell outta the crap Disney movies got away with.)

  37. Bump says:

    Ahhhhh, after reading a billion comments I finaly get the joke of this picture.

  38. Ricardodude says:

    Superman, Xmen3 = May, June 2006
    Eragon = December 2006

    • Outback Jon says:

      Did you actually bother to look that up? Or did you just know when those movies were released?
      Either way, it’s a pathetic FAIL.

      • TMI Service says:

        Crocodile Dundee 26 September 1986 (USA)
        Crocodile Dundee II 25 May 1988 (USA)
        Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles 20 April 2001 (USA)

    • Yeshanu says:

      As a *ahem* Galaxy employee, I can tell you that differing release dates don’t necessarily mean that the picture is a fake. We get the posters well in advance of the movies–right now, we have some up for movies that won’t be playing until next summer. I’d go with the “mischievous employee” theory, knowing what kind of people work at cinemas… :D

    • LadiesMan217 says:

      Now it’s not 100%, but I’m almost positive that Eragon is not equal to December 2006.

  39. Caitlyn says:

    THAT is a total epic WIN

  40. Julia says:

    How about Photoshop fail? This is obviously fake. The angle of the images (which we seem to be facing head-on) does not match the angle of the frames (which we’re facing diagonally).

    • Mortus_Kade says:

      There’s one of you in every comment forum isn’t there? Photoshop, photoshop! Not everything in life is done with computers, some people are just that hilarious.

    • f00by says:

      You have been GIMP’ed! (I think its real but i couldn’t resist lol)

  42. Rhiann says:

    This made my day.
    Even if it was Photoshopped or whatever, it still made my day XD

  43. Bagel says:

    To be honest, I’d have to say this is a win. Photoshop or not.

  44. Mina says:

    I for one want to actually comment on the image.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAH sex.

  45. URMRGAY says:

    I like-a you. I like-a sex. It’s nice.

    (Borat, xD)

  46. poopingonyou says:

    Why fail? I say WIN!

  47. fume says:

    hello, my name is bobbin threadbare. are you my mother?

  48. sneebs says:

    variety in poster design fail

  49. Guy Over Yonder says:

    I don’t see this as a win or fail at all. I think it’s too abstract. You have to take longer than needed to figure out the “fail” and even then it’s not very funny. I did not laugh, and I don’t see how this could have possibly made front page fail.

  50. Tom Trifik says:

    Ahhhhhhhh!
    Hurricane!
    ——————
    Run!

  51. Jesse says:

    i dont get it

  52. sneebs says:

    poster design variety fail

  53. shoobeydoobey says:

    this is too subliminal… i think this was an intentional setup and not a random fail. call in the fail shot… failers starting to fail at posting good fails

  54. poopeye says:

    sex haha funny!

  55. UVBEROT says:

    This is more like poster placement WIN

  56. purdlemeow says:

    “Placement” Fail? More like “barely subliminal message WIN!”

  57. alisox says:

    How is sex in a movie theater “coming soon”?

  58. thanatos says:

    Looks like a ‘AD 101 – Basics of Placement’ WIN to me…

  59. asswipe says:

    ahem “boobies?” that is all.

  60. nelandquinten says:

    hahah! i wonder who the perv was that put those posters up in that order

  61. Sara says:

    so, anyone else laugh (i agree, placement win), then think, wow, hollywood really needs some new art directors? if the best you can come up with for a poster is the damn first letter (okay, i can understand it with superman, and even with xmen, but eragon? not so much), thats the real fail.

  62. Jonah Norason says:

    No one mentioned those neon Pepsi cans that spelled “sex” yet! Or that Lion King thing! Things happen! By accident!

  63. asdfsdafd(i swear my name isn't random) says:

    EPIC!

  64. spamuel says:

    Lots of people didnt get it. I got it straight away, do you think that I might have a slightly one track mind? *Masturbates*

  65. badabada says:

    nah, its just the government’s ploy to increase birth rates. subconsciously plant ideas of sex in moviegoer’s minds.

  66. flutterdoc says:

    Just wait till mommy hears about this…..

    ((storms off))

  67. ENG says:

    What fail? This is so hilarious I even added this as my desktop background. No joke!

  68. DCuche says:

    I don’t get it… |:

  69. sprent2922 says:

    for those that don’t get it. The posters spell sex.

  70. Marco says:

    wow! only 30 minutes to understand. I’m a genius

  71. Danus says:

    How is sex a fail?

  72. mandalee says:

    And here I thought all these comments would be fanboys squalling over Superman vs. X3. Stupid director-thieving Superman and his stupid overly powered self and his stupid baby (whutwhut?).

    At least Chris Tucker didn’t show up in X3, I guess.

  73. lobato says:

    JAYSUS! I had to scroll into the comments to realize what the fail was about. i feel so dumb-dumb. just lemme shoot myself in the face real quick.

    theeere.

  74. ClickClick says:

    Geeze, 20 minutes to make it to the end of the comments! Ok, maybe 15.
    That included 10 minutes of junk before someone intelligent finally explained the picture. Thank you, Jack!

  75. vervain says:

    The majority of this comment thread has nothing to do with the photo.
    OT-posting FAIL.

  76. Tom says:

    Whoever says first again is gay

  77. Gunnar says:

    Haha! Good one. Somehow I think the one who put them up did that on purpose. For the ones who don’t understand it,, It says “S, E’, X”

  78. Ryuuzaki says:

    this took me so long to get omg im so blonde…
    its really not amazingly funny but yeh a bit childish XD =P

  79. Xos says:

    Subliminal messaging win.

  80. Mamui says:

    I would so have done that if I worked there.

  81. SpArTaN117 says:

    how is it fail???

  82. Kit says:

    Is it a fail because they advertise for it at all, or just because it’s between two superior movies? Eragon may be the single worst movie I have ever, ever, ever seen (don’t judge me; it was free and I was curious about them getting Malkovich and Irons to do it), but Superman wasn’t exactly better and X3 still wasn’t exactly great.

    If you want to see a poster placement fail, my hometown vid store had White Noise next to Serenity for months.

  83. Jules says:

    I believe this is a win sir

  84. Pablo says:

    FIRST!

  85. mezza says:

    Since when does anything that spells SEX = fail ?

  86. Shae Diggs says:

    omg it took me a good five minutes to get it..

  87. divaofpanic20 says:

    I don’t get it. I hate to sound ditzy but what’s the fail?

  88. Gary says:

    HEY! I saw this! In real life! at the theatre!
    I feel proud (ish) for finally witnessing a fail, for once. BTW I pointed it out to all my friends but didn’t have the sense to take a picture.

  89. starponys says:

    i like the way they think but kinda inapropiete for younger people or kids

  90. Nat says:

    Ummmm I dont quite get it…

  91. chet says:

    This was a set-up. These posters were not up at the same time in theaters. I work at one, and X-Men and Superman weren’t released anywhere near Eragon. At least the people who work there are creative.

  92. Dr. Nick says:

    Wow, that took a while.

  93. morgan says:

    *buys ticket to movie*

  94. Dre says:

    This is a win it is clearly intentional

  95. Sgt. Obvious says:

    Bored employee WIN!

  96. brian says:

    i dont get this one?

  97. Blake says:

    omg my girlfriend just said “that’s not a fail that’s a win” guess who gets laid tonight!? my girlfriend!

  98. Remilo says:

    I don’t get it

  99. masochrist says:

    the posters spell SEX haha, this one may be a little “deep” for some of you lol

  100. “私は夢中に夫人のポーカーフェイスを読むことはできません。彼女はとても厄介なのは、すべて私が今まで彼女の普通の顔を見ている”と述べたエストニア- 2 。 “スーパーマンのみ、エラゴン遺志を継ぐ者と、 X -メン』することができます。 “しかし、交際を誘う” “確かに、 “ムーミン合意している。 “しかし、彼らの英語を話すことはありません。彼らは、あなたのにおいがすることができます自分の面倒をオンにしてくださいうんち中国語の言語を、頭を話します。ほとんどの人は、美しい中国の人々の言語’のようです” “やあ、 “エストニア- 2をパイプで、 “マリリンマンソンの短縮は、言語を話すことができます! 私たちについて話を待ってもう一度、何ですか?” Accurate translation: “I cannot read Lady Gaga’s poker face. She’s so ugly, all I ever see is her regular face,” said e-e-2. “Only Superman, Eragon, and the X-Men can. But they evoke intercourse.” “True,” agreed the Moomin. “Yet they do not speak English. They only speak the language of poop-heads, ‘You-can-smell-your-own-sh*t-on-your-chinese.’ Most people shorten that as ‘The language of the beautiful Chinese people.’” “Hey,” e-e-2 piped up, “Marilyn Manson can speak that language! Wait, what are we talking about again?”

  101. Bana| says:

    i must fail because i dont get it

  102. Stephanie says:

    this is the sexiest placement fail in the world!! jaja!! :) that was so not funny that i forgot to laugh!!

  103. Stephanie says:

    omg!! why would u put that because omg u are so sexy!!

  104. JonnoJ says:

    subliminal message win. sign placement fail.

  105. Zenos says:

    some one explain the fail here, i just see movie posters that never played at the same time

  106. manilovekittens says:

    I don’t think that was a mistake.
    Sooo… movie poster WIN.

  107. PH says:

    To Japan!?!

  108. yes says:

    i dont get it

  109. Mauricio T. says:

    I got it!

    Superman Era-gon(e) -> X-Men.

    :)

  110. Geoff says:

    BTW, D’Eagle rules!
