Weekly Posters: Katherine Heigl’s ‘Life As We Know It’ Gets A Funny Poster

The only point I’ll begin to take a Katherine Heigl movie seriously (except ‘Knocked Up’ as it wasn’t her movie) is when she stops acting obnoxious in them. She plays the same obnoxious character in everything she’s in and it’s certainly wearing out audiences. The upcoming ‘Life as we Know it’ is a dramedy, which [...]

Weekly Posters: Vibrant Poster For ‘Burlesque’

I guess it is pretty obvious that I have no interest in seeing an overblown musical starring Cher and Christina Aguilera out of all people. But then again, maybe it’s not for me anyway. But here’s a pretty slick poster for the musical ‘Burlesque’ for those who care. Burlesque, a contemporary musical with 12 song-and-dance [...]

Weekly Posters: Refreshingly Old School Poster For ‘Secretariat’

With posters becoming nothing more than display of Photoshop skills (or lack of thereof) with bad headshots and CGI mixed in, it’s always refreshint to see posters that go back to the old school way of doing so. In that context, we have a teaser poster for ‘Secreteriat’ that is refreshing in its simplicity. Based [...]

Weekly Posters: Tony Scott’s ‘Unstoppable’ Poster Is Slick But Trainless

Since the trailer was no good, Tony Scott’s ‘Unstoppable’ needs very good marketing material to stop it from becoming a trainwreck (zing!). So here is the poster of the movie which looks pretty slick yet looks like it’s selling the wrong movie. Unstoppable, is about a runaway train carrying a cargo of toxic chemicals. Pits [...]

Weekly Posters: Boring Poster For Naomi Watts’ ‘Fair Game’

After a pretty interesting trailer and a compelling true story going for it, Summit Entertainment now unveils a first poster for ‘Fair Game’ starring Naomi Watts and Sean Penn. And simply put, it’s pretty boring. As a covert officer in the CIA’s Counter-Proliferation Division, Valerie (Naomi Watts) leads an investigation into the existence of weapons [...]

Sweet Trailer And Awful Poster For Indie ‘The Freebie’

I’m all for mumblecore indie efforts as long as the purpose isn’t to make one for the sake of it, which is what is increasingly happening nowadays. ‘The Freebier’, starring Dax Shepherd, looks like another no budget mumblecore but with a great idea behind it. Here we have a trailer that effectively sells the movie [...]

Weekly Posters: Strong Poster For Alien Invasion Picture ‘Skyline’

After it debuted a very cool albeit unoriginal trailer that instantly caught online success, ‘Skyline’ has high hopes attached to it as the next ‘District 9′. Here is the first poster that is a strong image to sell the movie by. The tagline is catchy and the image definitely arrests you visually. However, be warned [...]

Weekly Posters: Half Interesting Poster For Ben Affleck’s ‘The Town’

Is it just me or none of the marketing material for ‘The Town’ mentions that Ben Affleck directed the very movie himself? But as far as the posters go, they do a great job of making a very visually arresting half while the other is just a headstrip of the actors that ruin the impact. [...]

Weekly Posters: Generic Poster For Wes Craven’s ‘My Soul To Take’

So Wes Craven has a nifty little slasher ready for release in a few months and ‘Scream 4′ coming for April next year. An unproven property like the former is a hard sell. So how do you do it? You sell the director instead and forget all about the movie as evidenced in its first [...]

Weekly Posters: First Poster For Robert Downey Jr. And Zach Galifianakis’ ‘Due Date’

Warner Bros. could have another sleeper hit on their hands with the upcoming Todd Philip’s comedy ‘Due Date’. Though it is too reminiscent of ‘Planes Trains and Automobiles’, the cast is genius and the setup is broad enough to make it work just like ‘The Hangover’. Here is the first official poster for the film. [...]
