I'm sure that some of our American show posters are just as bad (it has nothing to do with the person's nationality, just their artistic eye) .... The Ragtime Poster kind of looks like one of those sample pictures you get on your computer to put as a wallpaper or something. The Sound of Music ... wow, no words. Kiss Me Kate doesn't seem bad to me. And the Rent one is great .. except for that guys cheesy expression. (Sorry :/)
