We need to have a new "dumb minimalist posters" photoshop thread.

A bunch of poster comissioned for screenings of cult films: High Plains Drifter Sara Riel. A bit too much grain but I like the general design. Captures the spirit of the film fairly well. Solaris[/b] by Davíð Örn Halldórsson. I think this might be going for the same thing as "The Ultimate Trip" ads for 2001. Morðsaga(Murdertale) by Friðgeir Jóhannes Kristjánsson & Jónas Reynir Gunnarsson. The list reads "Lust, Drugs, Twisted domestic life, incest, Disco" In The Realm of The Senses I haven't seen the film but I'm told it has boobies and I think this gets that across fairly well. Classy,stylish, Asian boobies. Incredible Shrinking Man by Hugleikur Dagsson I'm fairly certain this is supposed to be a joke. Maybe even a dig at mimimalist poster design. Santa Claus Conquers The Martians by Halldór Baldursson I really like this one. It's probably better than the film itself.

This just makes me realize how easy it would be to do a really really good live-action version of Nausicaa. And now I'm sad because nobody would ever actually make that really really good version.

Yep, still don't make sense to me. I thought when I first saw that poster they were meant to be time travel paths but... well, the third and first do, but the second still doesn't.

MikeJF posted:No, no, remember that the diagrams show alternate timelines too, like in BTTF2. Ah, but there no diagrams in the movie itself. On the other hand there is a circle marked with A and B written in a notebook that shows up on the screen for mere seconds, thus making it the best poster choice.

There's nothing inherently wrong with a poster that speaks to people who have already seen the movie. That stuff is usually lovely because it's fan posters, not anything else.

animal math posted:This one is done really well except for the fact that none of these characters even slightly resemble those that are in the movie. I'm not sure if that's supposed to be the point, but I've seen Castle in the Sky many times and I would have no idea what movie this is supposed to be without the title. Yeah, that's the point. It's a fan poster. Hence my "done by New World Pictures" comment. (New World Pictures did that horrible Warriors of the Wind cover. )

Don't have mspaint on my phone, but let's see how easy these are: Almost Famous: ? > (picture of a door) Bullitt: a green rectangle with a black slightly longer rectangle under it Jurassic Park: water ripples Inception: the spinning top Drag Me To Hell: a coat button One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest: 3 cigarettes, 1 is broken in half and so on...

Lance Streetman posted:No no, that would make sense. to be fair, that one you posted there would make (marginally) more sense to somebody who hasnt seen the film than the spinning top would. the top only had meaning when you have heard DiCaprio's character explain it in the movie, at least with this one you get the idea of falling through layers.

# ? Feb 1, 2013 20:11 |

Based on the trailer, the "layers" can be understood. But you have to see the movie to get the top. So what would REALLY make it a pretentious douchebag minimalist poster would be some tiny obscure detail from the movie you have to piece together. Like a sand castle or Mol's dress or the numeric code for the vault.

The Total Recall poster is clearly a picture of Mars laid over another picture of Mars so it looks like a butt.
