About russ

Russ Ryan is an avid fan of movie posters -- sometimes even more so than the actual movies themselves! But he's not just a poster geek, he also was lucky enough to have a film produced by the makers of AMERICAN PIE -- the classic, unforgettable, much less successful National Lampoon presentation, REPLI-KATE, starring Ali Landry, James Roday, and Eugene Levy.

Crazy 4 Movie Posters!

If you’re into indie underground artists such as Eric Tan and Shepard Fairey, then you might be ready to get brainwashed by Crazy4Cult: Cult Movie Art ($34.95), a new movie poster book from UK publisher, Titan Books.

This book is based on a past celebrated art/film show that debuted a few years ago at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles

Hats Off To eMoviePoster…

Hang onto your hats, folks, because there’s another big worldly sale of International movie posters going on the auction block today at EmP!

Crazy Stupid Movie Posters

Jack Johnson sent in this funny link to a new Funny or Die video featuring Steve Carell’s contractual demands to have the biggest head on all of his film’s movie posters — so CHECK IT OUT!

Rojac’d!

Before J-Lo and Ray-J, there was Rojac — aka Roger Jacquier, an elegant early 20th Century French movie poster designer whose work no doubt must’ve inspired his contemporaries, René Peron and Hervé Morvan.

Anyway, if you’re interested to learn more about this artist, check out Adrian Curry’s excellent post on The Auteurs website right here

Is this new teaser poster for The Hunger Games awesome or just annoying? Click HERE to get the full effects.

The Original Rollergirl!

Years before Heather Graham skated circles around audiences during her star-making turn as Rollergirl in Boogie Nights, there was a 1972 AIP/Roger Corman-produced shlock-flick called Unholy Rollers that gave audiences “A locker room look at the toughest broads in the world!”.

It certainly doesn’t have the looks of a cinema classic, but I think these Italian movie posters (signed by an artist named Aller) definitely do the picture justice. (via EmP)

Olly Moss Comes To America

Dubbed “Poster Boy Wonder”, The New York Times had a nice Sunday write-up on Olly Moss and his new Captain America posters for Alamo Drafthouse.

His Rolling Roadshow Tour posters gathered no moss, so these Cap’n USA sheets will surely sell out quickly (if not already)!
