Cool Poster
Your Poster is Cool | Captain America
Today Marvel released the first poster for Captain America and my initial thoughts are… it’s cool. Although he should let the film speak for itself, director Joe Johnston has been stating in interviews that he is excited for audiences to see what he has in store for the character. If this poster is a glimpse at the overall look and tone of the film, I am excited as well. Continue on for a look at the angst-ridden captain. Read the rest of this entry »

Upon looking for good/great posters for films coming soon, I was struck with a bolt of sadness. Great poster art is in a slow decline. Mr. Edens pointed this out last week and instead showcased the terrific Criterion artwork for Vampyr. Don’t get me wrong, there are still great posters out there. Just not this week.

Your Poster is Cool | Star Wars Trilogy by Olly Moss
Way back in August, I presented you with nine fantastic posters that Olly Moss created for the 2010 Rolling Roadshow Tour. He took the films that were being shown and used there iconic imagery to create posters that you would never be able to find in a multiplex. Well, Moss is at it again. This time with the original Star Wars Trilogy. What Moss does is so simple, yet utterly brilliant, that I was completely blown away. Combining each film’s primary setting and a favorite character, Moss is able to capture the tone for each film. Above you can see Moss’ poster for Star Wars, continue on for The Empire Strikes Back and The Return of the Jedi. Read the rest of this entry »
