Posters are intriguing, mind-boggling, and most of all crazy. Since films are made of hundreds of thousands of still images, posters are only made by a single picture. The hardest, harshest, and critical part in making a poster for a movie is that everything should be there; the general tone, mood, feel, and all major elements should be consolidated and at the same time should cohere to one another and at the same time catch the attention of people for it to sell, totally advertising in a sense. That is why some movies have more than one poster, usually they have two, but others even have new versions everytime they show the film in different countries. That is why I collected a list of all the movie posters that caught my attention renting them in my favourite video shop and watch them. Though some posters are better than the movie and vice versa, posters are a fantastic part of any film. In fact, I even want to see a Best Poster award included in award giving bodies for films.
