nah man. Van patten has the best card. he is the only one whose surname doesn't look ridiculously big and autistic in comparison to his first name.
the other ones have their first names in capital letters yet still smaller letters than the first letter

I think we can all agree that bateman has the worst card. it looks dirty. his letters are in 3 Dimensions rather than just printed out. way to many capital letters (Pierce &Pierce lol), the numbers are not even lined up and the mergers and acquisitions is too left of the company name

KEK no

for real where is the watermark on Allen's card that Bateman loses his shit over? Is this just shitty continuity?
>>
Allen is the most tasteful. Clean white card, excellent kerning on his font, punctuated spacing for the phone number, and a subtle bolded name successfully directs the reader's eye to the center.

I honestly give Batemen the next slot. I like embossing and will always favor plain textured paper over the messy playskool look of the alternative. Great font choice for the numbers sets his card apart from the usual but it lacks presence with serifs and such thin lines. Also extremely difficult to tell if any of it is bolded and the smaller print lacks readability.

Bryce is next. Textured cards are a big no. They collect grime and oil and even before that just look poorly crafted. Great font choice makes it highly readable but there is little to distinguish it from others. A perfect example of the film's message about the interchangeability of these men.

Van Patten combines the problems of the bottom 3 into a massive shit sandwich. Shit textre, shit seriffed font, WAY TOO BOLD for his name, poor readability on smaller text. He deserves to be shot and his corpse mutilated.

In another mood I might swap Bryce with Bateman.
>>

>>71056445
>>71056557
it's just a title, given to them for its own sake, not because they actually do a vice president job

I really like Paul Allens card. It cuts through the bullshit. No off white, no dumb pattern, no pretentious font. Just straight up and earnest.

>>71059461
How would you describe its thickness?

>>71059510

That being said Bateman's card is fucked. "Pierce &Pierce" what the fuck were you thinking. I do like his indentation into the card though.

>>71056071
From what I understand, "Vice President" is just a generic middle management title for that kind of company.

Bryces' card is so baller. The subtle indentation of the lettering. The texturing. Looks like someone lightly engraved it in stone.

Batemans is literally screaming, trying way too hard to be noticed. Van Pattens looks like it belongs in the classified section of the newspaper. Allens looks like it was run off the office printer.

Loved this scene. I really do agree with the majority opinion in this case: Allen's card wins handily, and Bateman...just fuck his shit up, senpai.

To think this movie is such a fucking meme that you retarded faggots will argue over which one actually looks the best is fucking amazing.


By the way Bryce is the easy choice for best. Rugged but crisp texture. The lettering is eye-catching but not too over-the-top, and above all else his own name doesn't take up too much of the card and lets the exquisite nature of the cards own taste do the work for it.

It knows that his name isn't supposed to just be a big inky shit on the card, it takes up the necessary space. No more, no less.


Batemans is just a fucking travesty and is honestly proof that the fucker is batshit insane and that he really is a crazy fucking murderer. The uneven lettering and over-the-top pressing are an absolute eyesore, not to mention the absolute fucking meme-tier coloring. Bryces was really alluring to the eye with its clean, bright coloration, but Batemans? It looks like an eggy fucking shit.

Fuck you bateman I hope you lose your job for this you fucking hack.
