Was this a not-gay-enough/too-gay battle between marketing and art? Or does Olga Kurylenko have really floppy legs?

Art makes me cry...
the legs look like they belong on an octopus! Also, the two guys look heavily airbrushed, they look like paintings and not from a real photo.
come on, people. Is it really hard to take a simple photo in the studio with models and let's leave it at that?!?!
I hate Photoshop...
This site is becoming lamer by the day ... no big deal with this picture.
@pommi, really? So, you reckon Olga Kurylenko has size 13 feet, then, do you?
Sims characters!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know this Olga Kurylenko. Does anyone know if it's true that she wears a built-up right shoe in real life to compensate for the fact that her hip joint is level with her navel?
And unless Olga's boyfriend himself wishes to come on here to disclose something about his sweetheart's physical capabilities, is it worth seeing if we can all, you know, try really hard not... ?
Knees: the new blemishes.
what a dreadful visual concept - and whats with the worlds most inconvenient convenience store?
this is a 100% computer generated image isn't it? like The Sims or something???
ALL of it looks fake...?!?!
Ok now my eyes hurt.
Too bad. I really like drinking negronis.
Olga Kurylenko may have size 13 (or larger--a lot larger apparently) feet; she may have calves with no muscles definition that are as incredibly long, even for someone with size 13 feet; she may even live in a different dimension from the rest of us and thereby appear in an ad in a space that she brings with her explaining why her image is looks just stuck in there.
But it is impossible to say that she has any interest in who wins the arm wrestling contest and wants to get enough Campari to get blotto and forget this entire horrible time/space bending nightmare.
Did you see her fingers on the October image?

Wow. The entire calendar looks like screen captures from some slutty video game.
I didn't think there was anything in the whole picture that was "real".
Bethany--
I guess the Campari Calender won't be much competition for that other Italian calendar, Pirelli.
So here's the legs that were missing from the last post. They sure get around.
Tightly wound greasy angst. Not one happy person. Why are they marketing this stuff as the preferred drink of people like this?
My Uncle Harry wants those shoes. Uncle Harry is, in his own turn, also wanted.
This is simply what happens at the edges of pictures taken with a wide-angle lens. Things look distorted. If there's a disaster here, it's that they DIDN'T use Photoshop to fix it.
This looks like lens abberation or a perspective problem, not a Photoshop problem.
I think the poster saying "bitter camp" essentially sums up this poster. Also, unless the guys are twins haven't they just been cloned?
I do yoga. I can do that.
Madame Tussaud fucked up this one.
I don't know about floppy legs on the woman, but the whole damn' thing looks waaaaayyyy too airbrushed.
Perhaps somewhere deep down is an actual photograph of actual people, but by the time the retouch artist finished with it, it looked more like Poser art than an actual foto.
That's the real disaster here, if you ask me.
She probably just a small owl.
Agree, this site is reaching. Just don't post if you can't find a good one to post. Simple
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this whole photo looked fake. They look like mannequins or something.
why have there been no twitter updates?
Oh, maybe Ms. Kurylenko actually wanted to star in "Octopussy"...
Hello everyone,
Christmas is comming soon, I start usually in the summer, to be sure to get a good deals. I want to make happy my familly this year. I would like to buy a tiffany & Co key pendant for my mom Jewelry Box , the one with diamonds costs 10,000$, but I don't have the budget for it, so I will buy the silver one at 100$.For my dad, I want to buy him a watch, I am hesiting between a Rolex or Seiko watches, I choose this two models : Rolex Watches or Seiko Watches What do you think?My husband is giving me a hard time, he would like to have a sneakers but he hesitate between different models, I found this model at Air Jordan Shoes , it's a good sneakers for basketball.But, our gifts, will be Generic Drugs .I am not forgeting my self, I will
ask my husband to buy me the Roberto Cavalli Sunglasses Oakley Sunglasses, they are amazing.What do u think about this gifts ideas and I like this blog Fashion News Or this one Cars And Dell Computer Thank you a lot in advance.
I think the twins are arm-wrestling to see who gets to set poor Olga's dislocated heel.
Some of you have apparently never seen a human woman cross her legs before, or you would see the disaster here.
When a woman crosses her bare legs (or legs in hose) at the point of contact between the limbs, both legs flatten a little where they press together.
That isn't happening in this picture. The two legs aren't touching each other. Either Olga is carefully holding her upper leg just so above the lower leg, and also has no knees... or the upper leg was pasted in from another image and composited in Photoshop, DISASTROUSLY.
I have to point out that it is possible that Olga's large feet could be the result of a wide angle lens, but then the square thingy she has her feet on would be more distorted, and the two guys would be even more so. I am quite familiar with wide angle lenses.
And to all the posters who find this not to be a disaster, do you ever actually LOOK at real people? Ever? I'm thinking this is a combination CGI/Photoshop disaster. The arm wrestlers look straight out of Poser. I'm wondering if Olga's face was pasted into a completely computer generated scene.
good one
I gotta admit, the OCTOBER image is an even better disaster! I especially love the reflections... ;)

The entire calendar looked much better on Compari's website. Where did they find all those creepy male and female models to pose with Olga?
It seemed a little butch Anime.
The main problem is that you need a lot more "Woman". Wasn't Padma Lashmi or another truly sexy voluptuous woman available? The Campari calendar needs a young Sophia Loren enjoying her Compari to dominate the scene with sophistication and sensuality.
I love this blog for the comments...
Not only the legs, look how long her feet are! They are disproportionate...
The whole calender is a disaster!
What's the point of hiring models, photographers and etc., if the final result could be done directly (and more cheaply, I guess) on a computer, using CG?
Those """photos""" really hurt the eyes.
Something is up with her head also - she looks like a gelfling with a goatee
After a glass of wine it appears fine! :)

Terry Gilliam lives!!!
Actually Val, I think Terry Gilliam does still live...
I absolutely cannot see what they did here or what they thought they were doing.
I mean - the feet look fine. What must have been wrong about the upper part of the legs that led to this disaster?
My fellow commeters were also right about the whole calender. The images are so airbrushed that I wouldn't even call them photos anymore.
Yeah, I'd say that this is completely computer generated and doesn't really qualify as a photoshop because it isn't really a photo.
oh and since when the Sims are advertising for Campari?
On reflection:
CGI is not cheap.
Shoots with actual people are not cheap (especially with a fairly complex set, and what IS that set supposed to represent? A very large pantry?).
This could be a Photoshop disaster (smoothed to unreality) or a CGI disaster (but why?) but either way, it's firmly located in the Uncanny Valley.
And Olga's legs do look very strange. (Many people actually have knees.)
And I don't really like Campari, either.
I used to have a doll that did something similar to this.
It was some Sindy knock off and was trying to be classy, but instead of specific joints, it was clearly thick wire wrapped up in moulded rubbery plastic limbs.
There was no specific knee joint (or elbows for that matter) and really hated the bloody thing as the smell from the cheap plastic wafted across the room from a closed cupboard.
Just why on earth did someone do that to the picture and think it was okay?
Fascinating.
Start with a spectacularly detailed 50 megapixel Hasselblad image, finish with people with broken musculature, no joints, and no skin or hair texture.
50 megapixel is too much
utube
dude wtf??
:S Did they even need "models" for this when it looks pure computer generated? What where they thinking? Or was that the whole point?..:/
bit off topic: the location is a very nice and cosy coffe shop in Milan, via Vigevano.
Water balloon prosthetic
I like the "Tony Robbins arm wrestles with himself" bit.
I bid $2.00
