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

    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.

    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

    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.

    Escape from New York, looks very modern for 1981, love the look of big famous bits of architecture in ruins.

    How hard did something hit the Statue of Liberty for the head to land in Manhattan? 😋

    Escape from NY - draws me to the movie more than the other - so more of a successful poster

    Secretary - it foretells the film more - IMHO of course



  • #230

    Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    LA Confidential because it has noir written all over it. I think the Secretary one doesn't really say much about the film, unless you'd already seen it.

    LA Confidential. Both posters are very busy with taglines and cast/crew so just have to judge them on the aesthetics of the photo.

    I agree with LA Confidential because of the noir vibe it gives off. Secretary looks a bit cluttered.

    Neither are great but as a fan of film noir, or in this case neo noir, I'd have to go with LA con. I would say Basinger has too much real estate in it, not that I'm complaining too much mind

    Green Room, much more eye catching. The Green Mile is just Hanks front and centre, doesn't really say much about the film.

    Both of these are really good, and I'd nearly be tempted to vote against my nomination, but I'm going with Office Space as it really captures the mood of the film, and something most of us experience. And also the competition needs more lighthearted movies in it as horror movies seem to be dominating so far, I think.
