/\/\/\ thanks! nippon nifties posted:I thought it was Gaff arriving in a spinner during the noodle stand scene at first Me too. The DeLorean travelling to the future from Blade Runner is fantastic. I don't care how lousy it is as a movie poster, it's a piece of nerd bait art and it totally worked on me. Lizard Combatant fucked around with this message at 03:31 on Feb 6, 2014 |

I hope I don't sound too nitpicky, but it looks like Michael J. Fox is wearing a black motorcycle helmet in that poster. Does he do that in the movie?

I saw that first one and immediately thought someone made a CGA Back To The Future game. That totes look like an opening screen from back in the day.

The only nitpick I have about that is that the patrons aren't reflected in the water on the streets. Otherwise I like them both.

Cafe 80's was a major, iconic part of the movie. I just wish it said Cafe 80's on the sign and had images of Ronald Reagan, the Ayatollah and Max Headroom on the TVs instead of T H and E. e: and the Wild Gunman machine with Elijah Woods and the Pepsi shoots. It's weirdly missing any iconic things. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Feb 6, 2014 |

I dunno, shouldn't a poster conjure up the feel of the movie? It doesn't do that at all.

That's probably the most noir poster I've ever seen. Which would be neat if Back to the Future 2 was a noir film.

The poster looks like someone got told to watch Blade Runner to get some design inspiration. The whole thing evokes the sushi stand from the start of that film rather than anything in BTTF2.

I see Drive in the colours more than Blade Runner. Also, why can't I fan poster be given room to breathe? Why does it have to reflect the theme? Why can't it have some fun? We're not discussing an official poster.

Despite the criticisms, I will try my hardest to buy this poster. It will be the first mondo poster I'll actually out effort into seeking out.

Cacator posted:No, but I think there's an issue when the poster makes me think of movies other than the one it's representing. I think people are thinking far too critical on these. It's a remix. Ever see The Shining trailer re-cut that made it into like a romantic comedy/G rated Family film? That was clearly making you feel something different about the material and it was clearly trying to make you think of other movies. That was the point. Or look at stuff like the Cardigan's cover of "Iron Man" or Superhumanoid's cover of "March of the Pigs". I won't compare with Richard Cheese because his whole point is parody. You hear these songs and feel something completely different to the original... but that's okay. But now you have a poster from a science fiction movie that takes a noir direction on it and it's now a criticism and a bad bad poster. I guess I don't agree with that point of view. I too hate how Mondo posters turn into a huge discussion thing and don't want this to happen again but I feel it's one thing to say, "That's a poorly designed poster" and another to say "That poster is bad because it doesn't stay on theme". It's not supposed to. But to each their own I guess.

I really like those Back to the Future posters, I just wish the title of the film wasn't so integrated and difficult to notice. It just comes across as fanart when it's supposed to be a poster.

It's not supposed to. Weird, I actually thought the poster did a good job capturing BTTF Part II since it combines both the sleekness of the film's opening and the darkness of the second half. A bright and sunny poster of the future would really only reflect the film's first ten minutes. But that title placement is just painful to look at, so I'd never buy it.

As with many of the Mondo posters, this one is beautifully rendered and almost amazing. But they're so "clever" with the text that it kills the whole thing for me. Some of the Lord of the Rings posters are completely unreadable, despite being really neat otherwise. Ditto, Jurassic Park. While you could argue that the style of those posters didn't match the aesthetic of the films, they were at least really neat drawings of dinosaurs and Ring Wraiths and such. But then the lettering was done by someone who was trying way the gently caress too hard to do something interesting when it would have been 100X more effective to stencil in a real goddamn font and let the (very competently rendered) image do the work. I have said it before, but I feel like the Mondo designers all need a crotchety old art director who yells at them and smacks their hand every time they do something like this with the titles. Maybe an old nun with a ruler, even. Someone to just scream "NO!" and send them back to edit the text so that it's readable.

I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you there, clearly Romero's best film is:  It's even got this badass Boris Vallejo poster. But I liked Bruiser, so what do I know (I will not defend it as "good", however).
