I'm getting sick and tired of seeing box covers that advertise scenes that don't make it in to the final cut of the movie.

Just saw Red Light's TWO IN A SEAT

The box shows KRYSTAL DEBOOR receiving a standing DP (the image is also in the photo gallery).

The scene ain't in the film !!!!!!!!!!!!

(It's not in the extra's either)

If you watch the film carefully, you'll notice where the scene has been removed during editing.

This practice sucks and has to stop .

Well, "If you can do it better, than do it."

It's easy to sit back, watch, and complain. It's a totally different thing to stand up, do, and produce a flawless product.

If they can't do better than to create misleading packaging then they should find a different line of work. This sort of thing is inexcusable.

I have too agree here. There is no reasonable excuse for a company to put something on the boxcover, that is not in the film. Lets face it for the average consumer his entire descision to shell out his hard earned cash is based on what he sees on the front and back of the boxcover.

Hell it even bothers me when they use photography from the set, as opposed to using pictures directly from the feature, on the back of the box.

totally agree! its bad enough when the rip-off merchants do it(nymph et al) but when supposedly reliable studios do it, it's just not good enough.

and besides its false advertising and could land the company in court!!!

Jebus made me do it!

Another related pet peeve: cover models who are not the actual stars of the movie. I'll be reviewing one shortly that prominently features Devon on the front and back packaging. The actual star is Gina Ryder, who appears in three of the scenes (vs. two for Devon) and who carries the vast majority of the dialog.

I can almost understand how set photos of edited action might accidentally end up on the box. There's a certain amount of rushing around to get the product on the shelves, and different people are working on different aspects of the DVD (one taking the photos and another doing the editing and another doing the graphic art for the cover, etc.). Flaws in the chain of communication can result in a bit of sloppiness that's going to irritate some consumers. (I'm talking, of course, about studios that are generally conscientious about the quality of their products; I don't doubt that there are a few that truly don't care.) But prominently featuring an actress who is not the star of the movie is outright deceptive.

YogaGrrl - Can I assume you're referring to "Nice Neighbors" from Vivid?

Ahh, a very perspicacious guess, PornoBoy! Yep, I was referring to Vivid's Nice Neighbors, which all in all really isn't a bad movie. After watching it once, my first impression is that it's probably worth 3-3.5 stars, though I sometimes change my mind when I take notes the second time through. Have you seen it?

I have run into that same problem before, though, with other discs. The most recent one was Adam and Eve's Reflections, which shows Danielle Rogers on the cover instead of Tina Tyler.

I'm not excusing Red Light in any way but at least in Two In The Seat we get to see Krystal De Boor thoroughly dp'ed in a couple of positions (cg dp,rcg dp) ...on the other hand what is worst is when we don't get to see the girl dp'ed at all, not cowgirl dp, not rcg dp, not standing dp, not dp even in the extras, nothing, nada, cero, like is the case with Hardball 17 from Evil Angel. Where they show a cute blondie call Tiffany taking a revers cowgirl dp on the DVD case.(but that's all we'll see) that truely sucks.
