Boardsies Decide - Best Movie Poster

quickbeam

Alien here though both are great.

Sawduck

Alien

2 great posters, but I'll go with alien it is quite creepy looking and sets the tone for what's about to come

Omackeral

That's a tie so we go to reasons. Seen as multiquote is a load of gick on this new site I'll just have to say what's happened. @Purgative and @PogoRach gave Clockwork Orange as their answers but Purgy didn't elaborate. @Strawberry Milkshake and @Irish Aris went for Alien and gave good reasons why.

Alien progresses.

Round 1

Big Trouble in Little China (1986)

VS

Shawshank Redemption (1994)

PogoRach

Big Trouble In Little China ; shawshank obviously the superior film, but as posters go I think this just stands out more.

ChannelNo5

Shawshank Redemption. Simple but effective.

Big Trouble is a little too busy IMO

Sawduck

Big Trouble in Little China

There is a lot happening in this poster, I find it more interesting

Omackeral

Shawshank gets in to Big Trouble as it's eliminated!

Purgative

Shawshank - direct impactful to the point. I dislike Big Trouble for the same reasons Ducky gave for liking it. Its busy and cartoony.

Round 1

Airplane! (1980)

VS

Trainspotting (1996)

Purgative

Airplane fortells of a zany, funny aeroplane movie.

Trainspotting is OK, but iy doesn't pull me to the movie more than say word of mouth or early reviews did.

breezy1985

Airplane

Mostly because I hate the trainspotting poster. Not sure if it's the really annoying looking guy in the middle or if it's the million copy cats that followed but I hate looking at it

Sawduck

Airplane! (1980)

Love it, it's so goofy just like the movie itself

ChannelNo5

Airplane! No earth shattering reason. just like it better than the trainspotting one. Not pushed about either tbh

Omackeral

A whitewash. Thought Trainspotting had a bit of an iconic aura to it but maybe that's the subsequent Choose Life monologue which was posterised.

Airplane! adavances

Round 1

Halloween (1978)

VS

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman (1958)

Purgative

Halloween - speaks of the shocks to come.

Attack of - nah just silly

Sawduck

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman

I think its class, never seen the movie though

PogoRach

Really like both of these for different reasons, hard to decide...

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman ; gut feeling, I may as well have flipped a coin

Omackeral

The giant lady stomps on through!

Omackeral

We'll throw one more up and take a break

Round 1

Amadeus (1984)

VS

28 Days Later (2002)

PogoRach

28 Days Later ; the simple colour scheme with the big emphasis on red is really effective...

Kolido

Going by post along, 28 days later would the movie I would choose to watch.

Though Amadeus is the better movie having watched both.

28 days gets my vote

davetherave

28 days later. The white on the red is very clear. Biohazard symbol means bad stuff happening. The tagline ties it in well The days are numbered.

Notmything

28 days later, makes you want to know.

ChannelNo5

Amadeus i guess. Not grabbed by either of these. Still hurting over the elimination of the Rocketeer. Think it would have blown both of these out.

Omackeral

Disaster strikes for Amadeus as 28 Days Later slots into Round 2

Omackeral

We're back at it now in a minute or two with a military inspired combo.

Omackeral

Round 1

Army of Darkness (1992)

VS

Lord of War (2005)
