It is disappointing, given that more visuals on display at the teaser trailer, posters for "ParaNorman" is such a dud. We understand keeping things close to the vest (the movie is not scheduled to hit theaters until August of next year), but there is a difference between secrets and bland, and posters don't tell you anything about the movie's about or what kind of wild, whimsical pleasure is undoubtedly in the store.
You realize this TEASER poster, right. Secretive good if it makes You want to see more.
