Once all nominations are in (a week or so, say), I believe we can commission a poll!


I nominate, for now:


Juno (http://www.flickr.com/photos/28409733@N00/1392447614/);

The Darjeeling Limited - an homage to The Life Aquatic, I suppose, but still... (http://www.worstpreviews.com/media.php?id=684&image=0&place=posters&place2=poster); and

Good Luck Chuck - Ewwww. Someone alert Ken Starr... (http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_product.asp?cmio=&sku=402355&dept%5Fid=36485&master%5Fmovie%5Fid=36485).


...More to come!


I remain, as always...

The Darjeeling Limited poster is okay- it's very Wes Anderson

I think the Good Luck Chuck poster is good - most advertisers would have had Alba in her underwear and Cook in his clothes. It's a clever, and irreverant twist. It really shows his desperation to cling on to her (something most men would feel towards Jessica Alba).
- The poster with Alba undressed would have probably sold more tickets.

Juno's poster is awful.

I nominate The Brothers Solomon
There's something I just don't like about it.

I know it's a bit off topic, but one of my favourite posters is for 'I'm Not There'

Haha, that Astronaut Farmer poster is hilarious, they couldn't even fit Billy Bob Thornton's head inside that helmet.

That Premonition poster is pretty cool.

That Zoo poster is so ridiculously disturbing it's hilarious.

I have to nominate Zoo, Water Horse: Legend of the Deep and Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Zoo - It really gave a feel for what the movie was about, but I think they could have done it w/o the masturbation.

Water Horse: Legend of the Deep - This movie looks pretty good, yet the picture of the horse reminds me of a dragon in a 1990s Paramount picture.

Alvin and the Chipmunks - They may be able to sing, but they are fat, ugly and...weird.

That AVP poster is pretty wicked I reckon.

That poster for the Best Picture winner There Will Be Blood is one damn fine poster.

We just got the Avp poster in and it looks pretty wicked to me. I also like the seeker poster too. Not really seeing how that one is bad compared to many many others.
I'm guessing none of you have seen the bratz poster. Sorry. No link. I'm lazy. and Hurried. Check it out. Although its not worth the time because its dumb.
The American gangster posters aren't very original looking to me. Almost feel as if thats been done before.Hmm.....

Oh yeah The Water Horse poster is dreadful. I think some really cool posters are the ones for Amercian Gangster,30 Days Of Night,Hitman and Hostel 2 are the best of the year.
