Zack and Miri Make a Porno

Kevin Smith unveils new American version of Zack and Miri poster
Published on September 12, 2008
They wanted it so Kevin Smith is gving it to them. After the MPAA's puritanical furor over what this writer believes to be a harmless site gag used in the first iteration of the poster for Zack and Miri Make a Porno Smith's crack advertsing team had to scramble to come up with a new and less "offensive" poster to promote the has released a new poster for mass consumption. Smith released the new poster this morning on his blog. See the new poster after the jump:
No doubt someone (like the MPAA) will be offended by this one too, but for all the wrong reasons. And ones they can't justify banning the poster for. But, wait! Isn't there a dirty word hiding inside 'titillating'? Uh oh, you're in Dutch again Kevin Smith.
MPAA bans Zack and Miri Make a Porno Poster

Oh no! Did I read that title correctly? Kevin Smith must have really made a boo boo with his poster for the upcoming Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Goodness gracious what the heck can be so bad? Kevin Smith has already had issues with the MPAA around the rating for this film and won an appeal to reduce the rating from NC-17 to Restricted. This must really be horrific. The offending poster after the jump (believe me I'm protecting you):
Huh? I don't get it. I see two people each with two other very short individuals standing in front of them. What's so offensive about that? Absolutely nothing. This is an 'if you get it you get it' gag and I don't see how this is offensive to anybody or perverse in any way at all. Perhaps the real perverts are the ones making the judgement that this is perverted. I'm not sure about that I'm just sayin'. People in the Great White North will be able to view the poster as is. "I've always loved Canada and Canadians for giving us hockey," says Smith. "Now, I love 'em just a little bit more. For allowing tufts of hair." Oh, Canada! And I don't mean that in a sexual way.
