Nominations Wanted!: WORST MOVIE POSTERS OF THE YEAR

Nicodemus — GMT

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... Nico.

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. http://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/51/MPW-25597 I know it's a bit off topic, but one of my favourite posters is for 'I'm Not There' http://www.awardsdaily.com/197.jpg

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.

Worst Poster? Well, I didn't think Darjeeling's was that bad, but that's probably because I've been waiting on bended knee for it to come out. But here is one BAD Alien V. Predator Requiem http://www.impawards.com/2007/aliens_vs_predator_requiem.html Bordertown http://www.impawards.com/2007/bordertown_ver2.html Bug http://www.impawards.com/2007/bug_ver2.html The Seeker: The Really Bad Movie http://www.impawards.com/2007/seeker_the_dark_is_rising_ver2.html Posters I like would be GOOD American Gangster http://www.impawards.com/2007/american_gangster.html Assassination of Jesse James http://www.impawards.com/2007/assassination_of_jesse_james_by_the_coward_robert_ford.html Charlie Bartlett http://www.impawards.com/2007/charlie_bartlett_ver2.html Knocked Up http://www.impawards.com/2007/knocked_up.html Teeth http://www.impawards.com/2007/teeth.html There Will Be Blood http://www.impawards.com/2007/there_will_be_blood.html

That AVP poster is pretty wicked I reckon. That poster for the Best Picture winner There Will Be Blood is one damn fine poster.

Here is a much better poster for Waterhorse, actually, this poster is simply terrific. http://www.black-magic.co.nz/home/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/waterhorse-poster.jpg

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.....

Re:Nominations Wanted!: WORST MOVIE POSTERS OF THE YEAR

transformers2 — GMT

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.

Re:Nominations Wanted!: WORST MOVIE POSTERS OF THE YEAR

iamhollywood — GMT

nice choices JackO. Some of my favorite posters this year are on your list. Charlie Bartlett, Knocked Up, and American Gangster. I'm going to have to disagree with you on the AVP Requiem poster though. I think it's pretty rad-action compared to most. Some that I think blew fully-loaded chunks would have to be Delta Farce, I Know Who Killed Me, and The Invasion.

I actually sort of liked the posters, artistically; the movie is unquestionally bad but the art was somewhat decent

I have to say Bee Movie has the most completely worthless movie poster of the year. It is followed closely by Are We Done Yet and Norbit for sheer retardedness.

Re:Nominations Wanted!: WORST MOVIE POSTERS OF THE YEAR

annyonggob888 — GMT

Juno's poster might not be the best or the most flattering, but it gets the point of the movie across effectively enough. Besides, the poster for Juno isn't going to prevent it from being a success (which it defintely will be). Bee Movie's poster is just plain, but may appeal to kids (which is the idea). Also, the poster for Mr. Woodcock just annoys me. It's so obvious that Billy Bob Thornton, Sean William Scott and Susan Sarandon are striking poses for the poster, that it just comes off as contrived.

Agreed. They also use the oldest potty joke in the book with the basketballs.

Screw bratz. that movies is not even worth talking about. Did anybody else think dead silence was an awesome poster. Its too bad they prosecute you for selling posters on e-bay. Cause I could make a fortune. I've only been at my theater about two and a half years but already have about a hundred or so posters. all Righteous.

I used to take the posters for crappy movies, or the ones that nobody else wanted, or the ones that we just got 50 of (that happened, really) and made them into book covers for my textbooks.

Good choices. I never saw the Invasion poster that's on Moguls but it is ugly! I guess it fits the film though. Some other bad posters that come to my mind was the poster for Saw 3 and One Missed Call (the USA remake version) One Missed Call http://www.impawards.com/2008/one_missed_call.html Saw 3 http://www.impawards.com/2006/saw_iii.html

I actually don't think it's that bad, but there is the real air of cheesiness to it. And Nicholas Cage's expression on that poster cracks me up.

How about this one: http://imdb.com/gallery/ss/0841046/Ss/0841046/walk_hard.jpg?path=gallery&path_key=0841046 Although I do have an inkling to watch it, it seems like they're trying too hard to emulate the Knocked Up poster. They're going for the gross out factor far too much here. Yes, it's a relatively-ugly skinny druggie, we get the point...

Yeah, it did get a little distracting, him talking out of the right side of his mouth for 90% of the movie, but I still thought it was a really good film.
