I watched this movie randomly in the middle of the night as a teenager and it felt a bit like a fever dream until I saw it again in my 30's ... though let's be honest, it still kind of felt that way.

I'm saying you should all watch this movie.

I'm not a master of composition, so I'm curious what you think needs addressing. To me it feels like the background people running away aren't in the right places to make best use of space or to draw the eye in the right ways.

Both of those hands that are coming at the camera are just ... poorly placed. They're well rendered and poorly chosen. Especially her's, but his is looking pretty about-to-get-all-gropey.

The color palette is also ... not great. More impressionistic and less representational would serve the limited palette these always require due to being screenprinted. Red skies with a red shirt right there against it, for instance, just doesn't work for me.

It's all little stuff that kills what is almost a great composition and rendering.

That is almost a good poster. If it was a fan poster I'd think "This person just needs a good art director to help them work out compositions." But it's not. And they still need one.

That movie needs the glowing skeleton of someone getting disintegrated.

One of the older War of the Worlds films gave the walkers invisible legs for some reason

The reason is that giving the models puppet legs pulled by strings would be too doofy even for a 1950s audience.

Mad Mission is the english title for "Aces go Places." There were five Aces go Places movies and the the third in the series, directed by Tsui Hark, is utterly insane.

For example: it has a poor young sean connery look a like who plays as James Bond but this is an evil James Bond that pulls a gun on a baby.



Trailer for Aces go Places 3: http://youtu.be/9AnyVnK4NKc

Aces Go Places IV / Mad Mission 4 marks the decline of the series after it clearly peaks in part III. The series becomes more simplified action comedy but still manages to be f'ed up. See that gentleman with the glasses in that picture? Well guess what... Ronald Lacey returns to the screen to play as Major Arnold Toht from Raiders of the Lost Ark even though the movie is set in the 1980s.

And there I was thinking the movies themselves would be dull compared to their posters... Time to get searching for them.

They did Witch Hunt which was interesting and the writer is the guy who did Dear Zachary, so probably click bait, but possibly interesting.

Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World (2015)

On one day, in one city the world comes together to grant one 5 year old cancer patient his wish. Batkid Begins looks at the 'why' if this flash phenomenon. Why did the intense outpouring of spontaneous support for a child reverberate around the world and become one of the biggest 'good news stories' ever.

If that kid ever gets into movies enough to know who Drew Struzan is, that's just going to be a perfect little cherry on top of an already fantastic thing. As it is, that's already an awesome thing for him to do.
