What movie posters to you really love?
what do you hate?
I hate the UK release for Eraser, i think it just looks cheap and thrown together, the US release is a much better cover.
i Love the Man on a ledge poster as it just immediately says "suspense" and the Japanese Kill Bill vol2 Poster is far better than the crap red one we got. ..
just thought it would an interesting discussion, please add your favs or ones you hate.

Agree the Japanese poster is very cool :cool:
yeah, i have the Japanese premium box of both movies with lots of goodies but the artwork is pretty ace...
One of my favouites the European quad for The Driver 1978
and one of the worst - USA quad for the same film!
As for bad any "romantic comedy" with pink lettering on white background.
I agree Goodfellas is ace.. . superb poster to go with a superb film...
Sleepers reminds me a little of the goodfellas poster, all black with the faces at the top then the smaller pic at the bottom.
Not as much as a good poster image but there was a message on the quad for Doug Limans "Go" that said,
Persons under 18 should sit outside with some lemonade.
thought that was quite humourous

Another good mafia crime film poster is Once Upon a Time in America. You have the young children walking in an industrial part of New York with the tall buildings and the steelworks in the background. You get a real sense of the immigration theme of the film.
