I always loved that Pacific Rim set.

These may not be to everyones taste but I feel extremely lucky (and grateful) to have them in my collection.

Well done, Skyjackers!

I loved the film, it was full of interesting characters, so appropriate it should have some character posters! Are they wildings or bus shelters, Skyjackers?

Thanks Ted!

Tob, these ones are US Wildings. There are 9 in a full set but these 3 are my favourite. They also did 2 bus shelters in this style. I've also seen them as 1-sheet size Wildings, but only on instagram.

How could you forget? I'm forever in your debt

eatbrie · « **Reply #32 on:** September 27, 2017, 04:10:42 PM »

I like the sound of that

.

I didn't even get a copy for myself. I think you may very well have the only set in existence.

Which would explain why I genuinely am in your debt!

You may have forgotten, but to me it was, and still is a very kind gesture.

I love the Australian Nightmares (have tried - not very hard - to buy a set for years) and all the Japanese Alice in Wonderlands. I think Skyjackers' Harry Potters ended up in my collection. The Star Wars UK bus shelters look suspiciously like the set I gave away earlier in the year and which appeared in a recent Ewbanks auction - great images but I find this large format too unwieldy. I enjoyed watching Miss Peregine and love the Stay Peculiar posters. I have just one example of the artwork - an advance UK DC Cineworld Poster with Miss P and a date of 29 September - wish I could have added others from the set (if indeed there were others).

Those are awesome Tob are they yours? What size?

Tob · « **Reply #38 on:** November 01, 2017, 06:55:02 PM »

Thanks Vick! Yeah, they're mine. I think they're around 20 x 30", but haven't measured them properly.

GREAT THREAD!

Not really. Outside of a few exceptions, posters 'designed' in this vein look like thoughtless, photoshopped hackjobs an intern threw together.

You work with some talented interns.

Above average IMO:

At first glance, it reminded me of a jigsaw puzzle.

skyjackers · « **Reply #45 on:** November 05, 2017, 02:36:55 PM »

I'd agree with Wonka on the Intern theory with this one.

For what it matters - not much

- I’ve disdained photographic portrait MPs many times. “Here is the star!” MPs probably do motivate targeted audiences to purchase movie tickets (or clicks on Netflix movie selections nowadays). But they ordinarily make for drab movie posters/junk generic advertising.

But a few rise above their lowly birth....

These biography films do need effective “star” MPs and these deliver with half heads, funky lighting, and BIG eyes....

Charlize Theron is tough, too. Have you seen her eat hot wings on YouTube, Sundance?
