Here’s your first look at the movie poster for the dark David Duchovny-Demi Moore comedy The Joneses (releases April 16). They star as the seemingly perfect couple next door that move into a gated community with their equally perfect children (Zombieland’s Amber Heard and The Beautiful Life‘s Ben Hollingsworth) and become the envy of all. The twist: They’re not a family, they’re employees of a stealth marketing company with the job of making their neighbors and classmates want what they’ve got. The price tags on the poster are a nice touch, even if they make me feel bad about myself: I can’t keep up with a $1,500 leather jacket. Things get complicated when Duchovny’s character begins wanting to play house with his boss (Moore) and a real-life drama threatens to blow their cover. A clever plot and the first pairing of Duchovny and Moore (as a sarcastic, submissive smartass and a domineering tease) — I’m in. You?

I understand why it happens, but it always irks me when the names listed on the poster don’t like up with the order of photos. The way this is designed, David Duchovny looks to be the only one correctly identified.
… don’t LINE up. Sorry.
I agree it’s annoying, though apparently the name order is dictated by highest-to-lowest billing.
It’s who has first billing, not who is on the poster right to left. Though I will admit for a long time when I was little I got the names mixed up because of this fact
That was the first thing that I thought of when I saw the poster. I understand that it’s a billing thing, but then don’t line up the picture over the names.
However, I do want their house, so they’re doing their jobs correctly.
Is it just me or does the guy sound completely monotone throughout that trailer?
Yes its you Nerwen Aldarion. He does not sound monotone at all.
Looks interesting for capitalist propaganda. I just hope that there are no racist stereotypes in the film.
If there is you may have to blacklist it…
How do you really feel about this film?
What are you ADD?
No I’ve just never heard someone refer to a movie as “capitalist propaganda” makes me wonder if you even go to the movies since they do only feed the big box office machine…
sign me up for this one baby!!!
Sounds like it could be good. I’m intrigued. Plus, it’s nice to hear about movies that are at least somewhat original.
I don’t think Amber Heard was in Zombieland…
If only there were some kind of movie database thingy on the internet that you could use to look something like that up…

COOL I am totally in.
I love David Duchovny.
I think its you Nerwen Aldarion. He didn’t sound monotone to me. Can’t wait to see this film
Interesting that the poster billing has Demi before David, though if you look at all the film information at the bottom of the poster, you make out that David has billing over Demi – if that matters to people.
