You'd even put the logo over the pics to save space, but that black part is the most important. Add some real text instead of images (for SEO purposes) and the amount of pics for each of those sets. Open the samples on a preview page instead of a jpg and include calls to action. Something simple like a logo, picture sample and join now link will be enough. Get the bottom row of 4 pics off, you need people to join and that's where the page ends. And finally, get rid of that "See our new pictorial" button since it's outdated and you're giving the message that you don't care enough
Video page: I don't see the trailer at all, dunno if you removed it, otherwise, I see no point in adding something that is hard to find anyway. The best element of the page (which, honestly, is quite good) is the content of that iframe... however, it's so small and with a scroll bar that once I paid close attention I realized it was there. Again, what's the point? Just remove the 2 rows of pics and include that iframe at the top or right below the black header. Just to be clear: the "added" text over the thumbs is what makes teh difference.
Join page: get rid of the top thumbs or make it smaller and with more thumbs. Everything else is perfect
about Jolie twins, more or less the same, just be sure to make the header way smaller in height and in video page I'd replace that upper area with the photos with the content of the iframe and that's it. No previews (they load really slow, by the time they finish you lost the surfer, like EscortBiz said)

Thank you Harvy, excellent notes and comments. Just before you visited the Apple site, we went ahead and pulled the free trailer. We will review all your notes.
So you think we should pull that free Jolie video as well? We thought it was hot at the end, with the little mini previews of some lusty scenes... I'm still 50/50 on it. But you say it loads slow as well, and that slowness is bad for the surfer... I agree there. Keep the surfer moving to the join page.
Thank you again for the great notes!
