    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

    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.

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

    Shawshank Redemption. Simple but effective.

    Big Trouble is a little too busy IMO

    Big Trouble in Little China

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

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

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

    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.

    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

    Airplane! (1980)

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

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

    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

    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

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

    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

    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.

    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.

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