Yes, that one is very nice. Aside from the horror movies, the rest are pretty terrible. I can't even tell what most of the movies on the far left and bottom row are meant to be without being able to read the titles.

Except the Big Trouble in Little China cover which... Well this goes for most of these covers but especially this one: I would like to meet someone who has never heard of this movie, have them guess what it's about based only on that graphic, and then have them watch it.

The concept of The Bye Bye Man is "Remember The Game? That old meme where you lost the game if you thought about it? What if it was a monster kinda?"

If I had a TV station, I'd just start playing the Silver Shamrock commercials in October with the countdown, and then dedicate the entire evening of the 31st to running the activation signal commercial.

It never stops.

I saw a sold-out revival screening of Halloween III a couple years ago. The testing scene on the big screen is genuinely loving stomach-churning (A+ sound design).

The crowd was pretty rowdy up to that point and that scene shut the party down. Love it.

I liked better the golden/black combination they were using for the trailer. But I guess someone said the poster needed to be more colorful, eye catching, MORE BLUE!

That's a remnant of the dub of the 70's show, most modern media dubbed here like Injustice 2 keeps her name untranslated. Although that change is recent, most mexicans like myself have grown with Mujer Maravilla.

The Joker is in a similar boat, being the only character in the entire of Batman mythos to still being called by his original dub name "Guasón"

Comodín

Comics translated on the 80's actually called him like that.

Also, they changed the names of a few characters back then. Bruce Wayne was Bruno Díaz, Dick Grayson was Ricardo Tapia and Lois Lane was Luisa Lane.

El Guasón in Mexico*. But I guess that was mostly in the old series and cartoons? (90's and more recent cartoons and comics switched to Joker)

*That was the name Joker was translated to in the old 60's TV series, and old superfriends/batman cartoons. And guess some comics from the 80's.

another Edit: Guasón,it seems it comes from the word "guasa" that means to joke, or a joke, etc.

The real fun comes from counting references that postdate Gremlins. I see Princess Bride, Thundercats, V For Vendetta, Childs Play, Nightmare on Elm Street, Ghostbusters 2, Inception, Men In Black, Labyrinth, The Last Starfighter, Game of Thrones, Big Trouble in Little China, Big and The Blair Witch Project, and that's without even trying too hard.

He was known as Comodín for a while on Comics




And he has always been Guasón on cartoons and movies.

Same in Sweden (Läderlappen). But my favorite example of localized super hero names is the Thing from F4 who used to be called Big Ben.
