Unlike your generic Women Laughing Alone With Salad stock
photos, these Getty images featuring Vince Vaughn, Dave Franco, and Tom
Wilkinson are awkward and strange on purpose. And, it's great.
What you're seeing is a very clever marketing scheme from
Fox and Getty Images for the new movie Unfinished
Business, which opens Friday. Vaughn and Franco star as businessmen whose
trip goes hilariously awry. Really, though, is there any other kind of business trip?
These photos are the ne plus ultra of
weird stock photos. Are they digitally added to the photos? Why do they look
like uncannily realistic robots? What would it be like to work with these guys,
anyway? That yearly Christmas party wouldn't end well for anyone involved — including HR.
Unfinished Business
opens March 6, but these photos just keep on giving. [Adweek]
