A really cool discovery: A blog devoted to movie posters through the ages. It’s a goldmine – really really cool stuff.
Here’s one example – a side by side analysis of the poster for Titanic and the poster for Brokeback Mountain.
The whole hyphen debacle with the poster for The 40-year-old virgin.
But there’s so much more to look at on this wonderful site – I feel like a kid in a candy store. Where to start??
And here – they choose what they feel to be the Best Movie Poster of 2005. And they explain WHY they chose what they chose. I love this stuff.
I blog-rolled this blog immediately.
Thanks, Dave!
LOVE the “74 Facts and One Lie”. Love the Irish-ness of your whole scene. Just got back from Ireland with my husband for our honeymoon. FABULOUS.
Come and see us over at Molten Thought!
Word Girl!! You’re over from Tracey’s, right?? Welcome to my little blog – thanks for reading the 74 facts piece – and I am soooo jealous that you got back from Ireland!! Hope you had a great time.
what about the hilarious discussion of “homosexuality=schizophrenia” that erupted from a discussion of poster art…fantastic!
mitchell – i know! Fascinating comment thread there –
