Celebrating Not Movie Posters
A few days, film folk started blogging about the marvelous poster that mashes up those two films of this fall season featuring talking foxes, Lars von Trier's Antichrist and Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr. Fox. It was dreamed up by Nashville-based graphic designer Sam Smith and posted on his Flickr page.
But instead of just linking to it again and adding nothing to the conversation other than repeating how awesome it is, I'm also going to link to a really excellent blog of other movie posters that aren't, Not A Movie Poster. The site collects together posters - I presume all fan-made - that take a different approach to pitching a movie to audiences than the official poster. (Among the many excellent "not movie posters" there is, for example, this alternate take on Focus Features' own Sin Nombre.) For those of you interested in graphic design or passionate about movies, it's a well worth a visit.
