As much as I disliked the film, I have to admit that the 2009 Astro Boy movie had some pretty good posters:  And some not so good ones:

I had to look up the trailer for "Would You Rather" after that poster... it's ok. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it5XICr93wU Not great by any means, but certainly looks watchable.

Can't forget Crash over Brokeback Mountain or Capote. I think Memento got snubbed while A Beautiful Mind won as well.

For me, it was The King's Speech over The Social Network. Or even half the movies in Best Picture contention that year (Black Swan, 127 Hours, True Grit).

With the Oscars, I feel like the real question is what was the most recent Best Picture selection that didn't make you go 'really? That one?' on some level. I'd have to go all the way back to No Country for Old Men.

I'd have to go all the way back to No Country for Old Men. Maybe The Hurt Locker? Looking at the other nominees that year, it was probably the best choice out of the bunch: there's some fun films but hard-sells for the Oscar like Inglorious Basterds and Up, critically-acclaimed but not-commercially popular movies like Precious, A Serious Man, and The Descendants, the technical marvel that's Avatar, along with pure Oscar-bait like The Blind Side and An Education. Maybe The Artist, as well? Looking at that year, the only one that's not Oscar-bait is Hugo and maybe Moneyball and Tree of Life. We should be glad that The Help didn't win last year.

   I could very well be alone in this, but I really enjoy these posters; but then I'm also a massive Indiana Jones fan. Edit: almost forgot the source: they're from Oktotally. Ghostpilot fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Feb 12, 2013 |

I want to hate on this for being minimalist but I can't. The scenes are pivotal scenes from the film, so it's not some obscure shout-out like most are. And the scale of environment to Indy makes everything feel epic, which is what you should be going for in those films. I do think whoever designed that should look into more textures, however. I can see that they used that watercolor texture in both the Raiders and Temple of Doom posters.
