New Posters From Comic-Con 2011!
Timeless?
And just in time from Comic-Con 2011 comes In Time, the new 20th Century Fox sci-fi flick directed by Andrew Niccol (The Truman Show, Gattaca).
Apocalypse New
Taking a page from the Alamo Drafthouse, you might want to check out TommyGood to see some new school artists like Tim Doyle drawing up cool old school movie posters like this…(via Darrell Street)
Rolling Roadshow Poster Sale!
Jason Munn’s minimalist movie poster remakes from The Rolling Roadshow Tour are now on sale for $50 smackers. Get ’em while they’re hot!
(Btw, these copies for sale on Munn’s website are Artists Proofs with an edition of 30 each — if you’re into that kinda thang!)
Poster Ripoff Flashback!
My belated apologies, but methinks the first Oceans 11 remake poster (2001) took some very definite, ahem, creative license from a band called The Smithereens and their much, much lesser-known 1989 album cover, 11.
Batman Copycat?
Yahoo says the new Dark Knight Rises teaser poster has a familiar case of Inception. Luckily, they’re both directed by Christopher Nolan!
Chris Ware Poster Ripoff?
Okay, I’m going all out geek on you today. Could Chris Ware’s hot-selling Uncle Boonmee movie poster possibly have been inspired by this Russian Star Wars movie poster from the 1970s? Probably not, but it’s worth a post.
Chris Ware Movie Posters!
Last year, I mentioned super-smart graphic novelist, Chris Ware’s foray into the movie poster design business with The Savages.
Lately though Mr. Ware has been busy updating his one-sheet résumé with a couple more excellent Indie credits — namely, Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives and The Realms of the Unreal, which was distributed solely at Sundance a few festivals ago — as his Hired GUn creations are extremely popular in the limited-edition market.
