ash48No ground breaking observations here, but I am fascinated by their choices in this poster. Also...Jared and that tee! (potential spoilers)
Another photoshop effort from the graphics department. I rather like it (much more than last year's!). It's atmospheric and seems to have a narrative of some sort. In most promo posters Sam is strong and looking forward. Here he is the only one looking down and not engaging the viewer. I suspect it reflects his state going into S9 but I have to assume he's not going to remain this wrecked for long. It makes me curious why they chose to show Sam like this. Maybe it's purely based on the first episode. I love how strong and determined Dean looks - Crowley and Cas do too for that matter. Also, Sam has metal bands on his wrists. I assume one is his watch. What's the other one I wonder? A bracelet? Since when?
And that tee! *guh* He's seen in much of the promo stuff in this t-shirt. I figure it's about making him look stripped back - almost vulnerable. I dunno! Maybe they've dressed him in this simply because he looks damn hot in it - but all these things are taken into consideration when preparing for a promo shoot so dressing him in a clingy, grey t-shirt has to mean something. Doesn't it?! (ok...so it's just so we can see more of his arms...I'M NOT COMPLAINING!)
Aaaaanyway. All the promos have been pretty cool (and HOT!). It feels like there's quite a different feel going into S9. Less horror and more..I dunno..sexy intrigue? We shall see I suppose. TWO WEEKS PEOPLE!!

But I really really wish they would just take a LITTLE more care with these promo posters - why waste all the lovely new photo shoot pics on a poorly put together poster? Why not let the SPN design guys do the artwork? Or like someone else suggested, have an open competition for fans to contribute? It would get them free designs and I guarantee hugely better quality, and the buzz in fandom for such a competition would be fierce.
Oh well too late now and this one does have some merit... LOL!

I don't mind the composition of this one - and the mood, but the costume choices are rather weird.
