Smith goes bare-bones with 'Porno' poster

With his marginal reference to oral sex shot down by the MPAA, Kevin Smith has finally found a movie poster that won't offend the snowflake-pure audiences innocently heading in to see Death Race or Righteous Kill. This time, Smith's Zack and Miri Make a Porno gets little more than a napkin sketch under the headline, "Seth Rogan and Elizabeth Banks made a movie so titillating that we can only show you this drawing." (See the full version of the poster here.) On his blog, Smith says he thinks the poster is "simple and kinda ballsy." In my opinion, all this fuss over MPAA approvals has overshadowed something much more important: Smith's new movie features one of the coolest minor-league hockey team names ever.
