Godzilla posters

I always liked the poster for Godzilla vs Biollante. Look at this! Radial lines so striking it almost looks like an explosion! It's a monster that's all teeth and spikes!


Nevermind that he looks nothing like that in the movie...

edit:

I really want to know who painted these now. There's something so fantastic about the overhead spotlight lighting, and the fact that everything looks blurry and otherworldly...

If this means Aguirre, that frame in some format is literally the only thing posters of the movie have ever been made of. They're all just that picture.

Also thanks thread for bringing this movie up, I thought after suffering through it the last time I'd never have to see it again.

Okay, common theme among Ohrai's posters...
- Make a triangular pile of people and things
- Light everything as if there's a harsh spotlight a hundred feet above
- Psychedelic colors to separate groups of people or things

All the promotional stuff is pretty cool, but the fact that they haven't shown us much of anything about what the movie will actually be like could go either way - it could either be an awesome movie or a complete disaster. I'm still apprehensive after Superman Returns.

Oh. Yeah, I don't think I'd seen those yet. Those look good, but I'm still not really sure if they tell me if the movie as a whole will be good or not.

They aren't "holy poo poo, I have to see this as soon as possible" trailers, that's for sure.

Zack Snyder usually has better trailers than that. For instance, Sucker Punch: the trailer for that was loving insane and I was sure I had to see it. Then I saw it and it was stupid as hell.

I'll still go see this in theaters, but it's not like I'm counting down the days or anything.

Yep. If Sucker Punch were a five minute music video it would have been amazing but instead they stretched that turd out to an hour and a half. It was like watching someone play a video game except way less interesting because you can't call them a dumbass for loving something up.

Here's the orignal, by Richard Amsel


You may know Richard Amsel from these other great hits:










When he's not doing movie posters, he seems to enjoy doing art nouveau illustrations, a little of which you can see in the Faye Dunaway face in Chinatown and the frame around Indiana Jones.

Aguirre is one of a handful of classic "you must like this" cinema that I just can't take. I recognize its merit and even celebrate its achievement, but it is absolutely insufferable from end to end. I feel everyone's allowed to have bad films as guilty pleasures, as well as a few classics they're allowed to hate.

It's funny that I hear this a lot, because Man Of Steel is the first Snyder trailer that's done anything for me. I remember the Sucker Punch, Watchmen and 300 trailers all made me go 'haha, really?'

The trailers don't seem all that bad and Michael Shannon owns in everything, but I still think Superman is the least interesting superhero ever and I don't get how a Superman movie always gets so much hoopla.
