These stock photos promoting Vince Vaughn's new film look as bad as the movie


Ah, the land of stock photos. It is a unique place, filled with people in ill-fitting business suits, lots of firm handshakes, and okay, plenty of cute puppies, too.
Over the next three weeks, you may notice some more familiar faces in stock photo land, courtesy of a promotion for Vince Vaughn's new movie, Unfinished Business. Twentieth Century Fox teamed up with iStock by Getty Images to create a series of photos featuring Vaughn, along with his co-stars Tom Wilkinson and Dave Franco, Adweek reports. The results are disturbingly good — or bad, depending on how you look at it — and should fit right in when you search for terms like "synergy."
Take a look at three of the frames, complete with their iStock captions, below. —Sarah Eberspacher
