I hate Spongebob, but I hate the color yellow even more. Another notch for Blade.

Blade. By far.

Spongebob. Millions of kids can't be wrong, can they?

Still Blade... someone shine some daylight on that MoFo...

once again blade!

Sin City (poster 2)
http://www.moviegoods.com/Assets/pro...757.1020.A.jpg

Sin City. Blade goes down like he should have the first time

Jessica's belly wins. Sorry Wes.

The babe is better to look at, but Blade is still the better bit of design. Sorry, Jess. Blade it is.

Sin City Looks just like the art by Frank Miller.

Yup. Hot girl, but the Blade poster is just more "slick."

Blade still looks better.

All for Blade.

ahaha.

the Alexander poster, A. Jolie looks like Beyonce!

:hmm: :hmm: :hmm: :hmm: :hmm:

Still Blade for me. :)

Based on the poster alone I am going to go with SAW

The Blade poster looks awesome too

Poster sense: Blade has the upper.

The Polar Express

Blade of course. :)

/me waits for the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory poster.

Blade......

I Still have got to go with Blade, but that's the closest call yet.

Blade beats that out.

so when ya gonna do the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory poster? :cool:

Blade~

56789

Blade easy

No contest... Blade

I have to go with Polar Express

blade for sure

Blade again, and again the composition strikes the competitor down... the text looks out of place and almost as if they never had it in mind to turn the image into a poster.

Blade hands down against Polar Express. The poster and all of the movie IMO fail to capture the original feel from the Van Allsburg book.

I hope Polar Express fails as miserablyl as Hook did when that came out in theaters.

Blade (5-0)

Ocean's Twelve
http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/153/918562.jpg

Blade..........

I'm mixed on these two. I love the phrase "Twelve is the new eleven."

Bah!!! Blade.

Ocean's 12. Ties into the orginial O11.

Ocean's 12.... That's slick.

Blade...... (damn 10 charcter limit :))

The Ocean's Twelve poster is pretty nice, but I'm still giving Blade the edge. :p Okay okay, bad pun I know, sorry. :)

Ocean's 12

blade, of course!

Wesley, you've had a good run, but the Ocean's 12 poster wins.

Going for oceans 12, the blade poster is so very very cliche, it hurts me inside its got so far =/

ocean's 12

Oceans 12 is snazzy !

Edit- Sorry on the second post...i thought the first one didnt work...

Gotta go with Blade

THe giant falls finally.

Oceans 12 wins with a 6-5 vote

Ocean's Twelve

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events
http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/153/988902.jpg

I vote for Lemony Snicket, but I had a lot of trouble deciding.

Lemony Snicket. Not because I like it, but just to spite Ocean's 12 :lol:

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events.

Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events

Lemony Snicket. You get a better sense of what the movie is going to be about with that poster. Whlie the Ocean's 12 poster is cool if you didn't know anything about the film the poster certainly doesn't help in identifying a story.

Lemony Snicket wins

Ocean's 12. Can't let it get shut out.

Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events

I still think Oceans 12 is better...

Ocean's 12 is uber-cool.

The point if the poster is not to tell you what the movie is about; rather it is to pique your interest so you become interested enough to find out on your own. Ocean's 12 does that with a massive coolness quoitent.

Lemony wins (9-2)

Christmas with the Kranks
http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/153/975188.jpg

Unfortunatly (hee) I'm going to have to go with the Jim Carrey poster.

That Kranks one.. That's just bad.

A Series of Unfortunate Events... The Kranks one is plain boring and uninspired.

(missed being able to vote on Ocean's 12... it was really good!)

No contest......A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Oh geez. I'll be surprised if this one's not a shutout. Lemony Snicket.

A Series of Unforunate Events!

Wow, That Kranks poster is really bad... Couldn't they find a better picture of Jamie Lee Curtis? Maybe add a background...

It's Unfortnate :) for the Kranks that the poster is just plain boring

Unfortunate Events wins

Lemony Snicket!

There is no way I will ever vote for anything with Tim Allen on it. Snicket for the win! (She's Lemony Fresh!)

Snicket please. Besides the fact that the poster for Kranks is lousy, the fact that the movie even exists is an affront to society.

Snicket hands down. The Krank's poster...what the hell were they thinking?

For saving on typing Lemony is now LSASOUE (1-0)

vs

The Aviator
http://imagecache2.allposters.com/images/153/975197.jpg

Lemony Snicket......Aviator is to cliche.

Lemony Snicket Aviator 1) has Leonardo DiCaprio on the poster and 2) looks just like every other movie poster.

I think Aviator looks better, has better composition, and even manages to make DiCaprio look vaguely male. However, it is as hackeneyed a design as ever was, and so, my vote to Snicket.

Did you see the one for Star Wars 3? I think it looks pretty bad. They darth vadar helmet looks like something from "Spaceballs" or something. It's all wide and looks weak I think.

Lemony Snicket still conveys a better sense of what the movie will be about.

my vote goes to The Aviator

I'd have to say... all the posters in this thread with the exception of "saw" are cliche.

The same formula has been used time and time again.

At least with saw.. you're presented with this very simple, yet bizarre image. That's it. I haven't seen the movie, but from the reviews I've read, the image looks like it could really describe the atmosphere of the movie itself without giving one single thing away.

Simple is good.

Remember the batman poster for the 1989 movie? It just showed the batman logo. That's it. THAT was a good poster. If it showed Keaton/Nicholson posing or making some goofy faces (a la DiCaprio in the Aviator poster above), it wouldn't have been so powerful and intriguing.

I liked the posters for Matrix Reloaded. It had the Matrix code and "5.15" (or whatever, I forget the date) That's all. You knew what it was, didn't know what it was about, it was mysterious! I didn't like the individual character posters (Morpheous, Trinity, etc), but I did like the poster of the twins.. just because they looked badass and you had NO idea who the hell they were. The colors in that one were also pretty sweet.

Other than that, you'll find that pretty much every movie poster is boring and unoriginal.. especially if it has some goofy picture of the actors in it (Alexander, Aviator, etc). A lot of "tough guy" flicks do this.. they'll take a picture of an average joe who's dressed up. Wow, a guy with a gun.. I haven't seen THAT before or anything. Mkay.. great, so what significance is this character supposed to have and what is this picture supposed to convey to me to make me want to see it or inquire more about it?

[edit]
And I do have to say... that Episode 3 poster is horrible. Really HORRIBLE. I could see if the cape naturally made this odd illusion of a darth vader helmet, but it doesn't.. and for them to forcefully make it appear like that just makes it look amateurish.

The poster for EP1 was sweet with Anakin's shadow casting the silhouette of Vader. You know what would've been good? A picture of Vader looking forward. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. That would've been perfect.

I don't really like either poster, but of the two, I like A Series of Unfortunate Events more.

The Aviator poster sucks, and it's blantatly promoting Leonardo instead of the movie, which results in average person going to see the movie for the actor instead of the movie itself (which likely sucks).

I vote for the Lemony Snickets poster

Series of Unforunate Events

Lemony Snickets goodness. :)

Lemony Snicket.

LSASOUE wins . . .

Lemony

vs.

Andrew Loyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera
http://imagecache2.allposters.com/im...53/1000864.jpg

I'll stick with Snicket!

I really dont like either,but Lemony gets a reluctant vote ;p

I vote for Snicket though we have a strong contender again.

Going just by the posters, I'm gonna vote for Snicket. The PotO poster is mostly just black, and looking at the two people, I'd rather have it all black instead.

Tough Call! None of the above? They're both a little off somehow. I gotta go with Snicket, though, just on a gut feeling.
