But yes, Cowboy Bebop is worth it just for the soundtrack. And the intro. And the fact that is has a corgi as one of the main characters  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6zDfxZ4NcE

...of SCIENCE! posted:Which is precisely why Faye's design is one of the show's biggest flaws. It would have been nice for them to dress her as classy as Julia (though her latex number was a bit too much) but I think they were trying to present a punk rock esthetic to her and as we all know, Japan sexualizes women like crazy. I always thought her outfit looked like April O'Neil just got attacked by Shredder and she had to somehow put it back together. It's kind of funny that it's the show's biggest flaw. The show had hardly any flaws for me and if that's the one, it's doing a pretty great job for itself.

It's a neat poster but I had no idea where to look. Well Peter Pan on the roof, Tinkerbell in the lantern, the kids in the window, the moon being a hook. There's a lot going on.

penismightier posted:The Les Mis and Beasts ones aren't bad. I mean look at those loving Avenger posters, remind yourself those are about average, and then look at Beasts again. I agree that that the Les Mis one is actually pretty good, far better than that movie deserves, even. But that Beasts one looks horrible. Why are the beast's tusks coming from behind its tongue? Not to mention that it makes it look like the movie is all about the beast when it obviously isn't. It's still better than the other ones I posted, but I wouldn't call it good. But, to make up for those two controversial inclusions, I present a  Drive Fan Poster Megapost 1.  2.  3.  4.  5.  6.  7.  8.  9.  10.  11.  12.  13.  14.

Somehow the one with the stupid air freshener pisses me off the most, even though it's one of the more competently composed. They're just making up their own iconography, that has poo poo to do with the film. What is he, a cabbie?

Number 4 at least ties the tag line to the image in a mildly clever way. The tag line for 10 wins the "completely missing the point" award.

This challenge is fixed. Because all of those are pretty bad. I mean four is okay, but the rest aren't. Apparently the scorpion was an important plot point I wasn't aware of. Wow. gently caress 13.

bowser posted:14. This one is bad. But I kinda like it, a bit artsy. Gonz posted:MAGENTA. Let's not go back to teal and orange arguments*,but now with cyan and magenta. The other fan posters had a horrible execution, melting faces and so on, on top of that the colors weren't used properly so they were a sore to my eyes. Like as if someone barfed magenta and cyan over paper. Is this one a fan made? Or the real deal? It's a painting,right? It looks pretty even if it's a big blue Ryan Gosling. *(which I confess I was guilty of doing a lot,but not anymore)

bowser posted:And a challenge: Which of these is the worst? And which is 'best'? Spring Breakers did number 2 better. Number 4 is a big old pile of what the gently caress. Number 6 is nice. Makes me think of Dirty Harry for some reason. Number 8 can go gently caress off. 10 is ok. 14 is nice but boring. 13 can go jump down an empty elevator shaft.

Now this, this doesn't work as a poster. But it would be a really nice desktop background. I like blurry texturized backgrounds.

I think it's fair to say that these Drive fan posters tend to use the colour scheme poorly (by covering EVERYTHING in magenta). bowser posted:And a challenge: Which of these is the worst? And which is 'best'? 4 and 14 here are probably the least offensive Drive fan posters I have seen. I actually like 14. 4 looks nice, but doesn't really convey the tone of the film; I would have assumed it was for a light hearted romantic drama or something. 11 is so hilariously awful that I kinda like it. vv Ah, I see. Yeah, the colour scheme is fine there. Yeti Yeti Yeti fucked around with this message at 04:24 on May 11, 2013 |

Besides, the cyan/magenta complaint everyone was complaining about a few pages back has to do with the fact it tends to be overused to convey the 80's-- Only God Forgives has gently caress-all to do with the 80's. That, and cyan/magenta colour scheme is physically in the movie.

Supercar Gautier posted:Hahahahaha, someone took one of the worst lines I've heard in a good long while and thought it would be perfect to build a poster around. I don't know. I don't think it has poo poo on the Hawkeye one. It doesn't make him sound like a badass it just makes him sound like he needs glasses. Actually in that regard it makes it sound like the Black Widow is just a really angry accountant. CPL593H fucked around with this message at 06:30 on May 11, 2013 |

Yeah... As a big Whedon fan he writes some really kooky dialogue that can be funny if you're disposed to it, but try and use it out of context and you look like a goon.... and these posters use some of the lesser dialogue and one-liners...
