The guys who made Walk Hard are MacGowan fans?

Is it just me or the promotional poster of Walk Hard looks a lot like The Snake's front cover? Add the cross behind Walk Hard's main actor and I think they are pretty much alike.

True, but it also look a lot like the famous Jim Morrison "American Poet," poster that I have hanging on my wall.

I am not familiar with The Doors. Is that a well known poster? Do you have a picture of it? Because maybe The Snake cover looks like Jim Morrisson poster, and Walk Hard poster also looks like Jim Morrisson poster.

Not familiar with The Doors :( Yes, it is a rather well known poster, just google Jim Morrison "American Poet" poster, that should point you in the right direction.

I never noticed the simalraites between the Shane cover & this before. It must be intentional right?

Yes it makes more sense that it's a Jim Morrisson's parody rather than a Shane MacGowan's parody. But not knowing Jim Morrisson quite well, that was an easy mistake to make. ;) But three pictures really look alike though.

I dunno. Look at the nipples. Look at the little patch of hair on the chest. Look at teh expression on teh face. I'm thinking that face hair aside, they were going for The Snake. But I could be wrong... :)

Eric, my friend, I know you're excited about those tix you purchased today but you may have left the office a little too early, brother! Don't worry, we won't show the missus this post.
