Oh, Brini can be WONDERFUL.  Here is my one and only:



Perfectly captures the film, is the best poster ON the film, and probably one of the best renditions of Crawford of all time.

So occasionally he screws up...we'll give him a pass ;)

Magnificent, Brian.

And it looks even more stunning in person!

Nice OUTLAW, although (her face, at least) looks very little like Russell.

Some things the artist did get right, tho.  ;D

Cool looking images and take on BTTF, for this ad campaign.

These posters were created to promote the Nike shoe, as mentioned, back in 2011, and to help the Michael J Fox Foundation, and its awareness and fight against Parkinson's Disease. The ebay auctioning of 1500 pairs of the Air Mags, was a great idea, too!  clap

The 2 min spot created was also a lot of fun, with Christopher Lloyd making an appearance!  ;D

Good eye, Chris... i NEVER noticed that oddly long and mutated thumb before... but probably due to the radiation poisoning, that lead to that and other, unseen "enhancements."  ;D

Jeff, you're losing your touch.
I think this poster is way far away from 'fantastic.'
What do you see in it that I am missing?

I know that's derogatory but the colours have a pleasing richness on that thing...like many Aussie posters.  That's why sometimes they are the best.

If only Davis weren't on the poster ;)

Outside of you and Holiday who would want one of these?

Must be a lawyer thing.

That means Sean and Brian probably also appreciate this...er...poster.
Does this belong in the 'fantastic' posters thread?

I apologize for my recent rash of negative critiques.
You know how much I love youse guys.
I am just itching to be banned.

I think it's great.  Keep 'em coming, Ted.  People should be allowed to say what they like and what they don't.  That's what a forum is for.  You will never be banned for expressing your feelings.
