Is this poster for the upcoming Three Stooges movie a hilarious meta joke about wrongness, or was the marketing team actually stupid enough to make the tagline a parody of “Just Say No” while making the image a parody of “Just Do It?” Can it possibly be smart enough to be a self-aware joke? Can it possibly be dumb enough not to realize it makes no sense? I’m going to spend the rest of my day researching this. Edit: I’m thoroughly enjoying alternate ads pitched by some other Tumblrs. Keep ‘em coming.
