Best Teaser / Advance Nominees of 2007

Best Teaser / Advance Nominees of 2007

Evan Almighty
A single hilarious image that gets across the basic idea of the film.

Saw IV
A very novel way of representing the title of the latest Saw installment, with some lovely chunks of hair in the scissors to remind us that this isn't going to be all sunshine and daisies.

Shrek the Third
When you have a character as iconic as Shrek, it's easy to show just a little of him to get the point across. Seeing the crown and the top of his green head we immediately get a good idea of what's in store.

The Simpsons Movie
Just like with Shrek, The Simpsons is such a part of pop culture that we just need to see some fingers and we know who they belong to. A nice touch making the donut part of the title and then showing Homer eating it in the final poster.

There Will Be Blood
A very simple attention-grabbing image

and the winner is... (coming soon)

Official 80th Oscars Poster

Official 80th Oscars Poster

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has released the official poster for this year’s Oscars, which will be the 80th in the award show’s history. The design was apparently originally conceived by the amazing Drew Struzan (you remember Drew Struzan, right?), but that design was actually turned into the final product we see now by Drew’s son, Christian Struzan, with the help of his creative team at XL Laboratories, Inc.

It’s a nice story, but the poster itself is unexceptional. The Oscar statuette and a bunch of bright lights representing, I guess, the glitz and glamor associated with the ceremony. The truth is that the Oscars have a very clear and strong brand, so they were quite constrained in terms of what they could do. And I think this is a lovely poster for that brand. But it’s not original or impressive in any shape or form.

10,000 B.C.

10,000 B.C.

Cast : Steven Strait,Camilla Belle

Director : Roland Emmerich

ในช่วงเวลาที่คนและสัตว์ยังดุร้าย
และแมมม็อธทรงพลังยังเพ่นพ่านอยู่บนโลก
เวลาที่ความคิดและความเชื่อได้ถือกำเนิด
และได้กำหนดวิถีแห่งมนุษยชาติตลอดกาล

10,000 B.C. เป็นเรื่องราวของนักล่าวัยหนุ่ม (สตีเวน สเตรท)
ในการผจญภัยเพื่อนำกองทัพข้ามทะเลทรายอันไพศาล
การต่อสู้กับเสือเขี้ยวดาบ และสัตว์ร้ายยุคก่อนประวัติศาสตร์
ในขณะที่เขาได้ค้นพบอารยธรรมที่สูญหาย
และพยายามช่วยหญิงที่เขารัก (คามิลล่า เบลล์)
จากเจ้าแห่งสงครามโฉดชั่วที่ต้องการตัวเธอ
