zenintrude posted:The poster isn't great, but it did get me to watch the trailer, so score for them I guess. It took me a bit to realize what this movie was (I haven't seen the trailer). This is the movie about the returning ad exec who sees aliens psychically feeding on people's anxieties driven by advertising, so he sets out to create a war between them by setting brand against brand? The strange imagery in the poster are the aliens, who look like various advertising mascots and brands.

Although this is a lazily done poster, I do like the symbolism attempted in it. You know what the movie is about just from the visuals alone. It would have been nice to make them all on a transporter or somewhere other than just the middle of space.

That looks like the cover of a book you would find in a bin outside a second hand store for 99¢.

I also wish they would use this poster more often for ALVH in my area, I like it far more than the ones the other ones. http://www.impawards.com/2012/posters/abraham_lincoln_vampire_hunter_ver2.jpg (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Yeah, I like the concept but, you're right, the 8-bit aspect of it makes the skull look too cartoony. I loved that poster they had for its festival appearance. Just white poster board with a VHS taped to it and V/H/S sharpied above it. Didn't AxleBlaze win one of those?

I really like that VHS poster, but that might be because seeing a giant wall of tapes like that is giving me flashbacks to my parents closet in the mid 90's. So many movies taped off of TV...

Here are two more posters I like the first is VIPS, a brazilian film about one of the biggest frauds in the world happened by important people in Brazil around the 1980s. I really like how all the different personas the character creates in the film compose the actors main face, though we have seen this done on a grander scale with films like Truman, Lord of War and others, I somewhat prefer this style as it actually ties into the plot and feel of the movie.  The second is for an upcoming movie my brother's highschool classmate is the producer/director for. In essence its a B-level horror/slasher film. I believe its actually hand drawn and not created via photoshop. I liked it due to its nod to the older slasher movies that came before it.

This is awesome, and I really love that they didn't go with the stereotypical fake fold-marks. It's the little details, really.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:No worries, it's not like you posted this I haven't seen that poster yet, I can't say I dislike it, but to me the desk looks completely fake, and that Snow really isn't in that setting. edit - actually scratch that, I dislike that poster, it looks way too fake, though knowing how relatively small the production company is that made the film, I'm not too surprised. Hopefully they just stick with the nostalgic poster. Again, not certain if this one has been posted but this poster for Tropa De Elite 1 & 2 I like, mostly because its the official logo of the BOPE (a real police division in Rio De Janeiro) which is what the film is all about. They also use the same font/style for the title as they did for the first movie   Mekchu fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Jun 15, 2012 |

I think the discussion that starts here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3342275&pagenumber=47&perpage=40#post395784205 Would make for a much better advertisements-in-your-head movie.

Uba Stij posted:Elite squad poster gently caress that movie in the eye and gently caress the marketers for trying to leech off of City of God. It's not even in the same league. Also, I'd recommend using a free image uploader like https://www.imgur.com rather than leeching unless you want a probation.

  The actual movie appears to be more Glee than Bridesmaids, but after the Glee concert film and the (probably) Glee-influenced Joyful Noise flopped, Universal apparently wants to go for a different angle.

Let me guess, the fat girl is the comedic relief, the black girl responds to everything with a sassy "mmmhmmm" or "daaaaaaamn girl!" and the Asian girl is going to be little more than background window dressing. Get pitch slapped? Ha ha ha ha ha ha. gently caress you.

I don't think anyone ever said TdE was the same league as CoG or anything along those lines. And your argument would mean no one should have gone to see Inception because it was just leeching off of Batman Begins & The Dark Knight by the marketers.
