This week’s Original Movie Poster Round-Up brings us four character posters for Where The Wild Things Are, a new US one sheet for John Woo’s Red Cliff, the previously unknown Adventures in Power, and a new and pretty cool Antichrist poster. A foreign one-sheet for Final Destination 3D, ’cause it’s kinda cool, the first poster for the Michael Jackson concert footage film This Is It, and Cameron Diaz is The Box (or so I hear), also foreign (hey we are a little light on posters this week for a change). BTW, don’t look up the whole Cam Diaz spoils the end of that movie online, because word is she gave it away at Comic-Con. Dare you say, beauty and brains? Another one sheet for Law Abiding Citizen follows (and based on these posters for some reason I am getting worried about the movie’s possibilities, call me crazy), and if you missed it from earlier this week, the teaser concept poster art for Rambo V: The Savage Hunt. Props to IMPAwards for the hook ups.

What is that am/pm commercial tagline? Too much good stuff. That pretty much sums up this week’s Original Movie Poster Round-Up. Every Friday step right up and get your good right here. Let’s jump in. There is something noticeably different about this new Couples Retreat poster. If you sat he first one we posted, you’ll know what I mean. Interesting. Two new Agora character posters are up (for Rachel Weisz fan #1 over here). There are two new posters for Viggo Mortensen’s The Road. Both are pretty good looking. Peter and Vandy and Love and Savagery are indies we know little about. A new 2012 poster continues the tradition of marketing overkill for that film.
In The Age of Stupid, Pete Postelhwaite’s head will be cut open and Nic Cage’s head will be used on the poster for Bad Liuetenant: Port of Call New Orleans. Who would you rather date, Leslie My Name Is Evil or one of the Boston Girls? Tough call. A new one sheet for The Invention of Lying is followed by the same for Chris Pine and Piper Perabo’s Carriers. Where The Wild Things Are has a new one sheet but double meaning when looking at the quad for The Descent Part 2. Now that’s the real wild thing there. Remember, still no US release date for that film at this time. We also give you the new Nueve poster, I mean, the movie 9, my bad. Finally the first poster for The Fantastic Mr. Fox is up. This was definitely a quality week of posters. Shouts to Rope of Silicon and IMP Awards for the connects.

Another week in the books, more splendid one sheets delivered to you in this week’s edition of the web’s Original Movie Poster Round-Up. The brand new The Ministers poster is here, with a cool twist on the cross. The final one-sheet for the animated Astro Boy is up as well. The House of the Devil poster is courtesy of STYD. Here is Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut Whip It movie poster. Alternatively titled, “Selling Ellen Page.” The release date has been moved up to October 2nd as well. When did Ellen become Brad Pitt? Speaking of Mr. Pitt, the rejected Inglourious Basterds movie poster below gives you sort of a noirish, Indiana Jones feel, no? Then the other, designed by artist Tyler Stout (courtesy of GATW) gives a better rep of the movie IMO.
Michael Sheen’s The Damned United follows. We also give you a new one sheet for Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant. I only give you the poster for I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell, not because it is a particularly cool poster, its not bad though, or because it will be a big film, I suspect not, but rather because I hope they do – serve beer down there that is. IMP Awards serving us the cold ones to keep us all in the know. Finally, there is the lovely Carla Gugino, going blonde for the sexy new comedy Women In Trouble. I do believe Carla would be trouble. So the ad is presumed accurate. Michael Moore’s Capitalism: A Love Story is near the bottom of this post (I still can’t get enough of that trailer!).
You want the poster for George Clooney’s The Men Who Stare At Goats? Thought so; you got it! Three new disastrous posters for 2012 are here. While disaster flicks may be old news, these are pretty wild. I give you Agora, you add the phobia, for Rachel Weisz’s new poster. And since so many of you clearly want Jennifer’s Body (Megan Fox’s in this case), regardless of the language, I couldn’t help but oblige. Enjoy!

Because we all like movie posters here, I figured I would give this to you now. Here is a sick looking motion poster for the upcoming horror-thriller movie Pandorum. We have seen these before, with Saw VI, I Can Do Bad All By Myself, and Gerard Butler’s Gamer among others. (You can search for even more!). Haven’t seen one this…gross before. Pandorum has seen itself show up in several of our Original Movie Poster Round-Ups as well. You can see their highly weird, yet “basic” movie posters here, here, here, and here. That enough Pandorum for you for now? If not, we have the trailer as well. That’s called coverage folks!!

Though this has been a week of highly anticipated trailers, we still keep our com-mi-it-ment to bringing you the best movie posters from around the web available to you. This week in the web’s Original Movie Poster Round-Up we have George Clooney and Vera Farmiga’s Up In The Air to kick things off. That is followed by a highly bland Antichrist poster, a “new” Law Abiding Citizen poster, which I believe we brought to you months back, and an interesting New York, I Love You poster. I still can’t get enough of how many actors names are on this poster! A new Dorian Gray poster with half-cracked face follows, the smaller movies Untitled (when is Adam Goldberg going to get more work!) and Five Minutes of Heaven with a possible award worthy performance from Taken star Liam Neeson being hyped, and the last one-sheet for Mike Judge’s Extract.
You want Kristen Bell? You got her, with the When In Rome poster, though I don’t approve of nail-biting. A brand new Zombieland one sheet hits, as well as the White Ribbon poster, a new movie from Michael Haneke whom you may know as the director of Funny Games. IMPAwards (thanks to them and Yahoo!) says this Palm d’Or Winner is due a U.S. theatrical release in December. I can’t wait to see this movie Vigaristas! Oh wait, I did, it was called The Brothers Bloom and this is just an int’l poster for it. Finally, another Saw VI poster drops for your enjoyment.

In this weeks Original Movie Poster Round-Up, we have all sorts of great new posters for you. Hilary Swank’s Amelia kicks things off, you might have seen all of the other art for her film, some of which look better than this official one IMO. We have a ton of new character posters for The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard. Anyone seeing that this weekend? A new Gentlemen Broncos poster is followed by two for Saw VI with the title “Saw VI: Blood Drive.” I am not certain whether this is for an event or are posters for the film, but we are going to roll with it either way. Those are followed by one-sheets for Extract, We Live In Public, and Chris Rock’s Good Hair.
Another new Whiteout one sheet with Kate Beckinsale is up next, which makes me think I wouldn’t mind being isolated in the snow with her. Seems we wouldn’t get outside much. Blank, rinse, repeat…you can fill in the blank for yourselves. Is that “hard hitting” journalism? Methinksso. The Flying Scissors, Art and Copy, and two new posters for F.Gary Gray’s thriller Law Abiding Citizen follow. I actually prefer the earlier versions of the poster to these. Trailer Park Boys 2 (share if you have seen the first) and Bradley Cooper and Sandra Bullock’s All About Steve round it out. Most of these were provided by our trusty IMPAwards sidekicks.

This week in the web’s original Movie Poster Round-Up we give you a host of new one-sheets, some from among our most anticipated releases of the year. Every Friday, we give you your fix of all the new posters, and this week we kick it off with the first one sheet for James Cameron’s Avatar, which we thought might be a fake but has been confirmed to be real (and yes, that is Zoe Saldana from Star Trek). We have a one sheet for The Road, based on the novel of the same name, followed by the indie Beeswax and another Pandorum one sheet (many of which have been pretty freaky–you can see them all in past editions of our round-up).
Another character poster for Sherlock Holmes (Mark Strong’s Blackwood this time, we had Rachel McAdams’ Adler last week), Justin Timberlake’s The Open Road, and six posters for Bruce Willis’ The Surrogates (none of which actually show Bruce, but are still interesting in concept nevertheless) are all present. The Vampire’s Assistant, Oh My God and another poster for the well-marketed I Can Do Bad All By Myself are all present as well. Thanks to IGN, IMPAwards, and WorstPreviews for the drops.

This week’s original Movie Poster Round-Up might be a little letdown to those following us throughout time. Last week was so big with all of the Comic-Con posters so this week, much more mellow. Such is life. As always, click the bolded film titles for more info or trailers. We kick it off with Uma Thurman’s Motherhood, followed by Charlize Theron’s The Burning Plain and Renee Zellwegger’s My One and Only. Those are followed by The Poker House (not poke-her house you leeches), a simply graphiced poster for Only, and a new poster for The Informant!, which we reviewed long ago.
There is an old-school poster style for Walt & El Grupo, and a pretty cool poster for Solomon Kane. Its not the mountain that needs fixing but rather a Broken Hill, in that film, while New York I Love You has more actors names on the posters marquee than any I can recall coming across. I think there are 23 names on there! Que ridiculo. Finally, there is a new character one sheet of Rachel McAdams’ Adler from Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes. We loved the Jude Law one from earlier (see bottom of this Round-Up) if you recall. Thanks to IMPAwards, Yahoo Movies and Rope of Silicon for the hits.

This week in the web’s original Movie Poster Round-Up, we have all sorts of bigger name, anticipated films with one-sheets for you. One of our best yet, no doubt. We start with a few early posters for Prince of Persia with Jake Gyllenhaal and Gemma Atherton. We also have the first poster that has emerged for the latest in the horror series of Saw with Saw VI. The Saw franchise usually has some real nice posters, but this one is a weaker effort based on the bar they have set. Not horrible, but they’ve been very good throughout time. We can assume you saw the Saw VI Motion Poster from earlier in the week, if not, be sure to do so. We also have an additional Saw 6 poster, which is no better.
The Bronson poster finally got here. Been wanting to see this movie but haven’t had the chance yet, courtesy of WAMG. We have the brand new Shutter Island poster, Scorcese’s latest starring Leo DiCaprio. A Nightmare on Elm Street has Jackie Earle Haley playing Mr. Kruger. The teaser poster is below. The new 2012 poster for the John Cusack led disaster flick looks reasonably good. The city looks like a rock/glacier to me though, so kinda cheesy in that regard. Good enough concept though. The new Ninja Assassin poster is up. We have the trailer which debuted this week too. A hilarious The Cabin In The Woods one sheet appears courtesy of FusedFilm.
Arthur and The Vengeance of Malthazard is up next, followed by a pair of Fame posters. I’m gonna live forever, by the way. The sure to be controversial I Can Do Bad All By Myself poster is up, but any film buff knows that it is a direct rip-off of Straw Dogs art, which featured a broken glassed Dustin Hoffman. In poor taste? Straw Dogs is getting remade by the way. John Romita Jr. drew the Kick-Ass movie poster, for you comic fans. Then comes Vintner’s Luck, since we debuted the trailer recently as well. We also have a legit version of Jonah Hex with Josh Brolin and Megan Fox, which made the rounds at Comic-Con in cameraphone form but looks better here. Supposedly Megan has a small role in the film, but she managed to make this one-sheet. Thanks to IMP Awards for all their help.

Another Friday is here, so thank you for joining us in the “Original” Movie Poster Round-Up, where we give you the best in new one sheets from around the web. We already gave you some re-imagined posters for Classic Movies airing on TV this summer so with that out of the way, let’s begin shall we?
A month ago, the Zombieland trailer dropped and now the full size movie poster. Interesting, old-time aesthetic. If there was ever a more redundant title than Teenage Dirtbag, I’d like to know what it is. Seriously. That is followed by what we hope are about the last character posters for Inglourious Basterds that will come along. I can’t take it anymore. An Education is up next, we gave you the trailer earlier this week. Irreversi, A Woman In Berlin and Lion’s Den are a triumvirate of indies that are next in line. A bizarre eye puzzle for 9 is that neon green one you see. The Spanish version shows all the characters for that film as well. Official Rejection has a brilliant tagline for anyone who has tried to maneuver the film festival circuit.
We have a Korean character poster for G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra. I decided to throw in an international poster for The Soloist, just because I like it. I think it kicked ass on the poster that we had here in the US. Run a search for it on our site, to see what I mean. Taxidermia has Michaelangelo’s sculpture dissected it appears. The new final poster for The Box is courtesy of the director Richard Kelly himself. Last but not least, the UK poster for Ricky Gervais’ The Invention of Lying (here’s the trailer). Thanks to IMP Awards for the hits you see. Big ups!!
