Jesus. The title refers to a smuggler of medical goods.
Jesus you faggots are insufferable.

Jurassic Park and Robocop are good for Criterion covers, knowing that you've seen the movie before, and of the minimal ones shown here they have the best use of color and type.
>>83793111
>>83793144
>>83793174
>>83793125
That defeats the entire purpose of a cover though, its to sell it to people who havent seen it
If someone hasnt those covers make no sense
also minimalist covers are just a way to have interns design their packaging for free

Why so many colors and shapes?
What the fuck
Like the psycho posters should just be a showerhead graphic on a solid blue background, not that ugly shit

I get it. That's why they work for people who have seen the movie or for elements which are easily recognizable because of popular culture, like on a Criterion cover. Even if you haven't seen Jurassic Park or Robocop, you probably get those covers. They wouldn't work well if those movies were new releases in theaters.
Also, I disagree with your assement of minimalist posters. From a design perspective, being able to convey an idea with the least amount of information is often paramount.

this is honestly cringy

>>83793363
this one is okay
>>83793357
No, being able to convery the tone and feel of the fucking movie is paramount
Minimalism is a meme and will not work with every movie
Sometimes, arguably most of the time, a more ornate and detailed approach will covey what the movie is about the best
Putting in the least amount of work possible is why so many movie posters suck now, just a stock photograph of the lead actor with the title over them

Thanks you ruined the cringey minimalism art student poster thread , again

no fuck you
>>83793440
>No, being able to convery the tone and feel of the fucking movie is paramount
I was talking about design in general, but, again, you're missing the point. These aren't for people who have never heard of the films. They aren't selling an unknown. They're distilling an iconic portion of a known quantity, and that's why they work. I'd agree with you if these were for brand-new movies that nobody has seen yet.
>Putting in the least amount of work possible is why so many movie posters suck now, just a stock photograph of the lead actor with the title over them
Making good minimalist posters isn't easy. You're attacking two different things.
>>83793527
What are you even doing?
These look like shit. They aren't good because they're old. fuck you
>>83793527

>conflicting signals
You're welcome?
well since this thread has been hijacked:
Why is this the GOAT poster?
>>83792418
That's the most retarded movie poster I have ever seen.
It's like if the poster for Iron Man was a picture of an iron sculpture of a man, or if the poster for Blazing Saddles had a picture of a saddle on fire. Like.....yes, it is a literal representation of the title, but has nothing to do with the movie itself.

Movie posters are literally paintings on a wall. You can appreciate craft and art not just a single clever metaphor and that shit get's old really fast.

there is a severe lack of animeized western movie posters
>>83793757
This one is actually not bad. Because you know; it looks like a poster that would be up on a wall. All the others were made on photoshop to fill up a tumblr/pinterest board and be passed around /r/movies to amaze retards with their metaphorical prowess to convey "this thing was in the movie."
Like none of this shit are even posters, they're just jpgs.

>>83794508
>>83794571
I think it looks nice, which is what you want from a movie poster. It doesn't have to convey shit.
>>83794665
>>83794665
Fair enough. but the snow setting makes it seem like there's huge blank spaces between the elements, which is awkward. OHMSS does a good job of keeping the eye's attention
>>83792682
fuck i forgot about this one. i hope someone was fired over this

Just put two black things in the shape of spiderman eyes and you'll be graphic designing
I don't see many modern ones posted that don't suck.
Can someone explain this to me?
>>83792632
who makes these? they are objectively terrible.
>take title of film x literally, make motif
>stripped design to appeal to meme minimalist sensibilities
unimaginative utter shit.
>>83793182
This one got me
>>83795432
The marker mark on Uma Thurman's chest right before they gave her the injection.
>>83795496
this one is also among my favorites, even though I find the film itself to be boring (you may know call me plebeian)
To the faggot posting real posters: Stop.
Also, pic related is my personal favorite
>>83795496
They're literally made on to exist on a tumblr page.
>>83795604

How does something like this make it to the final cut? Doesn't someone along the way say hey, this looks really bad?
