El Guapo's Poster Pimp Slap: New Poster For My Sister's Keeper. Bubbles Not Included. Warner Brothers and New Line Cinema just debuted the new poster for My Sister's Keeper. What's it about?

Sara and Brian live an idyllic life with their young son and daughter. But their family is rocked by sudden, heartbreaking news that forces them to make a difficult and unorthodox choice in order to save their baby girl's life. The parents' desperate decision raises both ethical and moral questions and rips away at the foundation of their relationship. Their actions ultimately set off a court case that threatens to tear the family apart, while revealing surprising truths that challenge everyone's perceptions of love and loyalty and give new meaning to the definition of healing.

Basically it's a movie about people making decisions that could or could not be moral, then realizing they should be thinking of others instead of themselves. I remember watching the trailer for this and I guess it has a bunch of cancer kids in it or something. And everyone is happy one minute, then crying the next, then happy then crying. Meanwhile, I'm as confused as Orlando Bloom in acting class as to what the hell is going on.

Here's the poster.



Since it's directed by the guy who did The Notebook, then I can safely assume that there will be multiple scenes where the director and actors are trying to force emotions onto you. The Notebook was filled with such scenes. They may as well have had the director at each screening punching you in the face while yelling, "You're going to cry, god dammit!"

Note the innocent playfulness of Cameron looking at Abigail. This tells us that these two are happy. But I'm sure the movie will have many tears behind those happy eyes in the third act.

Notice the bubbles scattered throughout the poster? To tell you that life is beautiful, but that the beauty could float away and pop at a moment's notice. A harsh reminder of the cruel and unfair world we live in.

Note the lower case font for the star's names. This is to tell you that this isn't a movie about the stars, it's a movie with a message. A message that you should bring a box of Kleenex with you to the theater. Bring it if you're a girl, because you will cry. Bring it if you're a guy and your girlfriend is forcing you to see it. Whatever you do, know this - any poster with a lower case font is trying to tell you that it is an important mainstream movie pretending to be an independent film. Or the makers of the poster forgot to press the Shift key.

Note Cameron's wonderful highlights and how the color of her hair is in direct contrast to Abigail's darker, more satanic looking scalp. That means there will be tension between the two not shown to audience members on this poster. A cat fight perhaps? Maybe Cameron abuses Abigail with a tire iron and her husband must step in?

Notice how the background is almost the color of the ocean? That's because you will be drowning in a sea of guilt and sadness.

There are so many questions and subliminal signs buried deep within this poster that it requires further study. Could this be the modern day Mona Lisa? Will this poster be dissected and analyzed for the years to come because of its hidden mysteries? I'm sure the readers can come up with some more questions and observations. I'm pretty positive that this highly controversial piece of art will baffle scientists, scholars, and philosophers for decades to come.

Don't burst my bubble. Make sure you
