Why do I like it? This brings an old tale up to date, Oliver is so animated you'd think it was an action movie.

Why do I like it? Terrible movie, but this poster works just by having an evolved 'Smiley' on it. Simple but effective, perfect design.

Why do I like it? With so much baggage, its tempting to copy elements from the successful past, but like the movie, this pays tribute but is totally new.

Why I like it? Too much text on this one, but I'm a sucker for red/black posters and I love grand pianos.

Why I like it? You need balls to create such a visually stunning image - deserves the credit!

Nonfictionguy's rating:

Before you see any movie, you will typically experience its poster first, even if its just in the lobby. These works of art/graphic design sometimes give you a glimpse of the movie, a clue as to what to expect. Other times they conceal the truth of the movie, for good cause - because its dire! This list is about the best posters, the ones that grab my attention or ones that stuck with me over time, its not about the quality of the film.

Oh and please do allow for personal preference here, this is a list of movie posters that I appreciated or liked (not just award winners). I've also listed the official blurb from each company or the people that created them.

Due to the size of this project, lists will appear alphabetically by designer.
