The innovative upcoming sci-fi film from director Rian Johnson takes place sometime in the near future, in which time travel is as common (and easier) than taking public transportation.

It would seem an obvious answer -- don't kill your future self -- but it turns out Joe turned out to be a pretty bad guy (beyond his already-established assassin background). 

In that context, the poster makes much more sense -- especially if you have the ability to turn your neck in unnatural directions.
