The awesome artistry of some movie posters far outclasses the work it was intended to promote. Here are my picks for 30 amazing posters for not-so-amazing films.
ROLL BOUNCE is perhaps my cream of the crop. I adore this poster. Too bad the film didn't hit the nostalgic, awe-inspiring note its poster did.
For years I wanted to see this film just for the poster artwork. I was sorry when I did!
Tyler Perry films aren't really my thing, but this sexy poster featuring Taraji P. Henson puts her visage in a class of classic Hollywood starlets who have graced posters in decades past and simply mesmerized us with their iconic beauty. She owns it.
Sofia Coppola was the only thing missing from this disappointing third installment.
The best thing about remaking LET THE RIGHT ONE IN: This macabre poster.
It takes a lot of people to make a movie. It's baffling none of the hundreds along the way said "Wait a minute...this movie SUCKS!" Perhaps they had only seen the poster art.
I was lost ten minutes in. Okay, sleeping...same thing.
Awesome poster for an awesome mess of a film.
Get over it, fanboys. This movie sucked and you know it.
This had the potential to be a great sequel. Sam Bowie had the potential to be a great NBA player. Neither worked out.
I don't think I got past 20 minutes into this before I realized life was too short...
As much as I loved the last STAR TREK movie, the poster wasn't nearly as cool as it was for this turd.
One of my faves. But a horrendous film nonetheless.
Why did they even make this movie? The movie it's based on wasn't even that great. But, I guess I'm glad they did because I really love this poster.
Say what you will about the lame movie, the poster was pretty freakin' awesome!
How THIS could have been so awful still amazes me.
If only there would be a good TRANSFORMERS movie to go along with the damn posters!
Reminds me of an album cover. Really dig it!
Movie posters that are this good should go with amazing films. I barely remember this one.
I love the colors on this. And the clever upside down hanging of the title. I think I've had more thoughts on this than the entire movie!
Such an awesome poster, they should take it away from this trash sequel and attach it to the first one, the masterpiece.
Love the poster. Loathe the film.
No one should ever play Kurt Cobain other than Michael Pitt.
Again, sorry, the movie sucked.
I adore this one. Lots going on, great design. But the movie was nearly unwatchable.
This is the only interesting thing about this BORING crapfest.
I love this imagery. Too bad you're most likely to find it in the $5 bin at Wal-Mart.
One of the most badass movie posters of all time. For one of the stupidest movies of all time.
I love Almodovar's films. Unfortunately, the best poster was for his lamest film.
And this was the poster that got me thinking about this list...
