It's the size of a disc.

I have one of those from way back. It was for Total Recall and it came in a tiny tin that looked like Mars.

Holy hell, the blu-ray cover for The Artist is so awful.


Actually, it's not awful. It's just painfully average, and nowhere near as good compared to the other posters. I don't understand why they couldn't have just gone with this:


I like that both tell you absolutely nothing about the movie, but I guess at least the blu-ray cover tells you it's about that goddamn dog that no one shut up about for a full month.

I like dogs. gently caress that dog.

That reminds me of when I was planning on buying the special-edition of Tron: Legacy/Tron on blu-ray, that came in a disc:


And then I saw this video and realized it was tiny and you literally had to take the discs out one by one to get to them.

Some marketing decisions, I swear to god.

I have and it's awesome decoration. And Legacy/Tron both sit in my DVD trays (5 disc holder hell ya) I am def buying the Artist tin holder. As far as goin though the discs one by one, how often are you guys going through movies to where that's a constant annoyance? Are you cycling through the blu ray to 3d? How is that such a huge annoyance where you wouldn't get a really cool decorative piece?

I think it's been mentioned here how bad the Minority Report Blu-Ray cover is but man I saw it in-store today and it looks even worse in real life.



I don't think Tom Cruise is such poison now that they want to make him look not like Tom Cruise so I don't know what the hell happened here.
It looks like they took one of those non-copyrighted posters they have on the side of the Redbox machines and slapped it on an actual release.

I am willing to bet money that the people who made this film are not banking on internet meme awareness to get them mad dough, but have in fact just used the ad as a subject matter for their fictional film because they thought they could make a good story out of it.

Must have missed that one. According to that link, the movie's been pretty well received on the festival circuit so I guess it rises above its stupid origins.

It's because instead of being an actual time traveler, the guy who posted the ad just seems to be a male equivalent to the manic pixie dream girl archetype. So you know, generic "indie" trash.

Apparently, years ago, some YTMND user got the late Don LaFontaine to record a piece of audio which was hyping a nonexistent "Safety Not Guaranteed" action movie mashup.

Yeah, if you're just judging it on the poster and the concept of the meme you should at least check out the trailer as it makes it look pretty interesting.

It shits me to no end that Mondo makes these absolutely beautiful posters that I'd just be so happy to stick up on my wall but limits them to runs of like, 300, which sell out in under a minute (mostly to scalpers) and never get reprinted again. It's a damned shame, done for no reason other than to artificially create a collector's market.

Confession time: I put up a Craigslist ad with this meme on it about 8 years ago and I got a lot of responses. Met a nice girl and dated her for a few months, it was fun.

The Mondo posters are pretty great but yeah, they need to get them out to people in a better fashion.

Back in 2009 I found about the whole screen printed posters movement so am lucky in that I managed to get a couple of Tyler Stout posters before he absolutely exploded. This was when you bought directly from his site and they were a lot cheaper than they are now.

I bought his Robocop poster for $30 and it has been going for over $900 recently. The last mondo poster I got was Stout's Kill Bill poster which looks absolutely amazing in person.

That is a horrible poster for sure, but I'm not sure what would be the best way to market a film like Rear Window - it doesn't exactly lend itself to poster advertising.

Here's an awesome foreign Psycho poster to make things right.

It looks better in print, it's in this great book here that I own but don't have access to now. I'd really recommend it to anyone who follows this thread, it's sorted by country but also has sections dedicated to showing one films posters from several countries.
