movie posters

2018 was a damn good year for movies. There was The Favourite, zany fish-eyed English Baroque rollercoaster from Yorgos Lanthimos. Roma, a poignant love letter to Mexico City, managed to steal hearts internationally. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper inexplicably paired up for what ended up being our favorite iteration of A Star Is Born yet. Despite our immense love for these acclaimed films, we also enjoy making fun of sh*t. And The Shiznit happens to do that very well.

Every year the entertainment site posts "honest posters" for Oscar nominees. They're beautifully done and funny to boot. We've included some of this year's posters and some all-time favorites. If you like what you see, check out the rest here and consider donating to their Patreon.

This Monday the Twitter account for Aquaman tweeted a photo of the film's poster to promote its December 21st release. Unfortunately for the well-meaning but ever-faltering DC Universe, it was immediately mocked on Twitter. The designers definitely made it easy. The poster features Jason Momoa surrounded by sharks ripped straight from the Getty Images gallery - and people immediately likened it to the posters for movies like Finding Nemo. Before long, it was getting the full Photoshop meme treatment. And we're definitely here for it. Better luck next time, DCEU.

The talented design community over at designcrowd made movie posters for films with one letter of their titles changed. The results are sometimes terrifying.

cocowilde works in a retirement village and created this fantastic 2015 calendar called 'The Golden Age of Cinema'.

Movie posters can rule, but artist ABVH has made some movie posters that show the medium could benefit from some movement. Additional posters were found in the Fubiz gallery.

Everyone's a critic, but some really, really shouldn't be.
