I hate "should of" "could of". In those, it's not "of" it's HAVE!
It's "only" my "2nd language", but come on! You can't blame that on "popular usage" or "texting" or whatever.
Stop it NOW!

It's could've, would've, ect, contractions of would have, could have, ect.
It just sounds like would of when said out loud.
I know, but I've seen people WRITE it like 'could of'. On the internet.

Ooh! I remember that ad. Caused quite a stir with the Daily Fail, IIRC.
I read somewhere long ago that "sega" is Italian slang for masturbation.

That's an actual 1953 poster? Or a poster of a recent revival?
The type looks like the type of thing done by a lazy designer using Illustrator. --Just stretching it and warping it.
Most lettering from those days that implied perspective was much more carefully rendered.
And the white text looks like TFTSNBN.
And Proteus brought the upright beast into the garden and chained him to a tree and the children did make sport of him.

Cracked has had a few "make an olden-style poster for a new movie" contests. But I think this one is legit.

It could be, but I think All Posters does occasionally do their own production for whatever reason(there are a couple that really look like anachronisms).
Google image search for "House of Wax posters" and I get a variety from that movie that look much more '50s.

Does the name help them sell? Have they ever heard of Miami? where every other restaurant must be cuban? ooh, "conflict". There must be many cuban restaurants in New York city and other places in the US. Also, lots of Arab food restaurants (yes, they eat that all over the middle east). Even the Avengers love shawarmas.
"Conflict kitchen"

Yes, I read their "about" page. They're using controversy to sell. I don't like that.
