Feel free to post what you think is the best movie poster of all. My vote goes to this:

A very powerful poster. There's just something about this poster that makes it iconic. Somehow just having the simple bat logo worked beautifully.

Here's another favorite of mine. The movie sucked but the poster for it was very well made IMO. Great exposition and color tone.

Cosigned. Out of all of the Star Wars poster that one's my favorite.

EPIIIBITES
Sorry...another Star Wars one...but it is my favourite poster.

Solo
Breathtaking.

This one's my long time favorite, though. Have it in my room.

I have this one imprinted into my brain. It's haunting, especially if you've seen the film.

Oops..."Best movie poster"...(not favourite).

I'd say it's this one...

Sorry dude, but I have to say that is quite possibly the worst movie poster of all time!!! It got panned when it came out.

Vader looks moronic, the unravelling of the cape just looks forced and awkward, and all the white "shading" that's supposed to create other images makes the whole thing appear smudged and faded...

wink Best movie poster of all? Think you're alone on that one.

I've actually made my own version of it...

EPIIIBITES
...heeheehee

Agreed. It's interesting to see on the special edition DVD all of the different designs that poster went through before being finalized into that one.

Mr Parker
the first two I agree on,Jedi I dont.I hate Jedi even worse than the prequals.

sithsaber408
The movie or the poster?

Cuz I thought we were talking about posters. wink

Mr Parker
The movie.we are talking about posters but I try not to look at the poster for jedi because it reminds me of how horrible the movie is.

It's out here in England on January 12th, and America it was out late october. Documentary about the Golden Gate Bridge and the people who commit suicide off it, apparently they filmed it for the whole year and caught on camera people jumping.

Excellent
I would bow in his prescense
I love the 70s version
I would much rather watch that than Jacksons version any day

This is one of my favourites rather than one of the best ever...

It's rather funky.

I like The Good, the Bad and the Ugly one posted earlier, and the Gone With the Wind one too.
