more disappointing movie posters
 
Sticking with the theme of my last post....
I couldn’t resist sharing my thoughts on these thoughtless posters.  Several of these could have been greatly enhanced as illustrations, rather than photoshop “mock-ups”.  How magical could the Golden Compass posters be, with some paint and imagination?  Instead, things are slapped in wherever they can fit in a haphazard way.
 
The below selections are just SCREAMING for an illustrator with picture making skills.  God these are awful.....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
At least the above posters make a slight effort with some storytelling.  The pieces below are just plain bad....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The below poster for PUSH gets the WTF award.....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I know that most people would not notice this, but the DARK KNIGHT poster has a major perspective problem.  Unless the building Batman is in is tipping over.
 
Now I’m not saying that every poster needs to be an illustration.  With strong design, photography can be used and sometimes even more appropriately.......
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Let’s end this with a few examples of recent posters that don’t suck......
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
OK- One more shitty one.........
