Woah, woah, John Alvin is a million miles away from a budget artist. However they didn't bother to give him decent references. He redid the poster for the 25th Anniversary.




That's pretty sweet, are there any releases of that in full-on poster?

It's actually the DVD cover of the Canadian release, I have it. It's much better than this piece of poo poo the other DVDs/Blurays got



Wow, that cover is bad. I have that Blu Ray that you're talking about. Much better. I don't see anything wrong with that poster, or the one with him staring out the window.

No, no, that is clearly Blade Runner. See how he's running away?

It's based on an earlier draft of the script where the term Blade Runner was a bit more literal.

For Blade Runner I'd prefer other stills for a basic poster.

Why does Drive more than any other movie have the worst fan posters ever made?

This one is definitely one of the better ones but most are complete poo poo.

I always thought that was one of the best from Mondo. It's clever and elegantly done.

I have a lot of posters, but the only one I actually have up and framed isn't a movie poster, but a poster from Lost back when damoncarltonandapolarbear.com was doing that weird promotional thing.

It's a signed Daniel Danger print:

Does someone at Mondo have a skin condition? I can't fathom any other reason why almost every poster they churn out skin is mottled/moldy and that they think it is a good thing to do.

At least this is a better example of the "style" than when they outline the different patches of tone and everyone gets a scribbly-face.

Galaxy of Terror is a hell of a watch, even more so when you keep in mind the setting and the tone are virtually identical to the original premise for Alien before Ridley Scott came in. It's an alternate reality trashy punky Alien.

God damn it, you've got to be kind.
I think James Cameron did the set design and parts of the spaceship actually look pretty good. It's otherwise terrible but has a few majorly shlocky scenes that people might enjoy.

I think it's just a side effect of most of those posters being created in a vector art program. Basically they're not bothering to blend the colors together, and I've no idea if that's a deliberate stylistic choice or they just can't be bothered to touch it up in Photoshop (or, god forbid, actually hand paint a poster on physical paper or canvas).

Like that Drive poster, they have a decent layout there and a nice likeness of Ryan Gosling, but they hosed it all up with that really awful attempt at "shading".


I really like this poster, and I've never seen or heard of this movie.
