Film Poster:
Retro/game design, shows Jake as the big, main character looking serious (to show his importance within the film) looking to the left of the poster with an xbox controller in his hands and ear phones in his ears with Sarah as a serious, smaller character looking at him seriously from behind offering him a gun (less important but also influences Jake). The background is blurred army buildings. This shows Sarah as a life line giving him a gun to cope with in the army as supposed to an xbox controller.
