WickedIcon posted:All the trailers for The Last stand have pointed out in very large text that it's a new movie from Kim Jee-Woon, so I have a feeling they are. Oh cool. That's nice of them. I don't know if i'd have bothered promoting the director on a new Schwarzenegger/Knoxville action comedy. edit: Weird. Seeing the trailer again they showed off his name, but nothing he's worked on. I don't know if that's better than the Stoker route.

GonSmithe posted:Jesus Christ, all of these save the Room 237 ones are awful. The Hunger Games one might be one of the worst, ugliest posters I have ever seen. Really? I thought the Dark Knight Rises one was cool, and I like the Avengers one as a picture, but as a poster it's pretty lacking.

I liked the Raid poster. But yeah, the other ones were pretty mediocre. It turns out it's hard to top Hollywood professionals.

Came across this and thought you guys might like them. The Skyfall one was the only one I could look at and say 'yeah, I don't hate this one'. Even that still has problems though, it doesn't really have any cohesive ideas. It's almost the opposite of every 'alternate' movie poster being way too high concept: That barely has any concept. It looks nice, but that's about it.

It takes genuine talent to make Mondo posters look good in comparison to your own, but half of those look like someone ate a box of crayons then wiped their rear end on the paper next time they took a poo poo.

Right, let's all look at this. What angle is he standing at? And is it just me, or is The Rock's proportions just subtly off? Like, his head just looks slightly too big, but not big enough that it stands out, but also slightly big enough that it doesn't really look right.

Vagabundo posted:Right, let's all look at this. That looks fine to me, if unimaginative. They actually used a photograph taken at a low angle to match the fact that the scene behind him is photographed from a low angle which is the #1 problem with the posters that get posted here. Seems like they got a designer who actually understands perspective.

Yodzilla posted:This site is making me irrationally angry. I mean look at this.  Released just a year apart (in 1979 and 1980 respectively), Alien and Pac-Man are prime avatars of the sci-fi-techno-geek explosion that coalesced in the late Seventies and early Eighties. It makes perfect sense for them to come together in this eye-catching representation of the film’s core themes. Ingenious. Even though they were released in different years, in different medium and have nothing else in common it makes perfect sense to combine them. Clearly dots it's the perfect way to capture a movie's theme:

Those two aren't the worst I've ever seen. They're not great by any stretch and I'd hate to have them on a wall, but they're not the worst. This is probably a good time to reuse the "Minimalist Video Game Covers" photoshop thread from a few years back that GBS threw together as proof of just how "easy" it can be to make covers like that:   Others are probably on my ancient laptop hard drive but they were honestly stuff like a Sonic the Hedgehog series of covers with blue, yellow, and red circles on a green background with the iconic loop.

No, the Breakfast Club poster is the worst, because whoever made it drew his inspiration from the narration at the start of the movie then stopped watching.

Alhazred posted:The reasoning for why they are cool are even worse: Actually...   Alien, a Pac-Man-clone licensed by 20th Century Fox. Also, if you can't see the ventilation scene in Alien, complete with the motion tracker panel showing Dallas and the alien as blips in a maze, as anything but a precursor to Pac-Man, then I can't really help you.

What's the top right one supposed to be? And it's been mentioned, but this is what the Alien poster is trying to go for:  It's still a terrible poster though.
