Steve Mason at Big Hollywood likes movies and the promotional art that goes along with them. He lists "The All-Time Top 10 Movie Posters (one man’s opinion)" and observes:
As a movie junkie, I love good movie art. The best movie posters are evocative. They capture what a movie is all about without giving away the mystery. There are certain movie posters that instantly put me back in that theatre experiencing the film for the very first time. The best movie posters are not just promotional tools. They stand as a work of art on their own.Sometimes films do well in spite of the posters. And sometimes very bad films start out well because the promotion featured art far better than the film.
Mason's top four posters:
- Jaws
- Chinatown
- The Dark Knight
- Breakfast at Tiffany's [and the rest]
