I almost wrote a post about the first poster for The Wackness, but ended up deciding against it. My feeling was that there were some interesting things about it, but in the end the poster setting was just a little too dull in way that seemed contradictory with the colorful energy of […]

Comments (2)Russian Speed Racer Poster
CTAPT! That’s a pretty long way to say Go. Of course, I have no idea how it’s pronounced so maybe it’s really brief when people actually speak it.
As for the poster, it’s not as good as most of the Speed Racer poster, but it’s still kind of cool in the way it […]

Not that many interesting new posters coming out these days, so let me take a moment to highlight a posters for smaller film that I have been meaning to talk about for a while.
Here is a pretty amusing poster for Rober Sigl’s The Spider, depicting that ages old Turkish problem, half human/half-spider monsters.
Now, I have […]

I’m highlighting this poster for two reasons. First, I have really liked director Kim Ki-duk’s films in the past and everything about his new movie seems to get me excited. Second, I really like the simple, clean and yet evocative design.
Dream is one of those films with an weird but appealing premise that is hard […]

Blindness’ story revolves around an epidemic of blindness that spreads quickly bringing society to a state of chaos. This first teaser poster for the movie focuses squarely on the sight loss aspect, giving little attention to the epidemic/chaos angle. We have the letters for the title arranged in a form reminiscent of an eye chart. […]

The title is challenging. The subject matter is edgy. The actual film has divided audiences and critics and generated some heated discussion. The poster is blue and sedated. One of this things is not like the others.
I think I understand what they were going for here. We have had many pictures over the years that […]

- Oh, look! A cool new poster for War, Inc.
- Nice looking poster. What is the movie about?
- Hmm, I think it’s about war.
- Could you be a little more specific?
- Sure. Let me see here. I think it’s about the intersection of money with war. You know, about how greed can fuel war and […]

Chapter 27
I know what I’m supposed to think when I see this poster. I’m supposed to think about Mark Chapman. About the creepy expression in his eyes. And about the terrible crime he is about to commit. But instead all I’m thinking is “Wow, […]

Wait, we are just now getting the final domestic version for the My Blueberry Nights poster? Seems like the first (international) poster was released ages ago. And the film itself premiered at last year’s Cannes Film Festival. It’s sure taking long for it to make it’s way to the U.S.
Anyway, this poster is very […]

So, I read the movie’s announcement, and I didn’t get it. Then I watched the trailer, and I did get it! But now I have been starring at this poster for the past few days, and I don’t get it anymore.
Ok, that is not really true. I still get it. But not because of the […]
