This intriguingly simple poster makes you want to print it out, take out a pen and try to find the center of this maze.
Grade: B+
Well, it sure is darker, at least visually. Still not sure about that tagline, though; are we supposed to believe that the first movie was a fairy tail?
Grade: B-
This is actually a pretty cool poster design that gives us tons of dark, weird, scary badassery.
Grade: B+
This works pretty well as a teaser poster. We get an ape on a horse and a grim, snowy climate. (Oh, and the word "WAR" is really big and red, too.)

The cartoon style is definitely cool and different, but it doesn't really seem to have any relevance to the film itself.
Grade: B
One can argue against the need for a Cars 3, but this poster promises a surprisingly dark tone and some serious twists on the road ahead.
Grade: B+
Absolutely nothing about this poster is new or interesting or even remotely eye-catching. Yep, Kerry Washington's looking fierce and there's some tagline about how badass she is. Nothing new.
Grade: C-
This poster really, really invites the viewer to tilt their head 45 degrees to the right and spend about 10 minutes zooming in to check out all the characters here. It's bright, colorful, and incredibly fun.

This is kinda what you would expect from a television poster, with lots of characters jumbled about and not a whole lot of color or creativity.
Grade: B-
This poster is certainly trying to be artsy, but it also comes off as a little weird and dark and boring.
Grade: B+
It really just seems like someone decided to use the kaleidescope effect because it looks cool, not because it has any relevancy to the film itself.
Grade: B-
This is probably what every teaser poster should be. It has an incredibly simple – yet terrifying – tagline, a piece of very familiar imagery, and it announces a new release date for the film.

There's definitely something very creepy about this black-and-white poster, although it looks more like a poster for a horror movie than a British miniseries.
Grade: B+
This international poster isn't too bad, but there's something a little weird about the character's profiles overlapping each other like that and leaving so much negative space on the outside.
Grade: B-
Everything about this poster is just kinda awful. Sorry.
Grade: D+
There's something very colorful and cartoon-y about this poster. It teases King Kong from afar rather than revealing him in all his glory.

There's definitely something pretty creepy about this poster. It has a distinct graininess and uses a soft yellow color than the blood red that you would expect.
Grade: B+
The overlapping faces and bodies in this poster are pretty cool, although they leave a lot of awkward white space on the outside.
Grade: B
The middle portion of this poster is certainly beautiful, but it's almost ruined by the cluttered names at the top.

These character posters actually have something artistic going on with the watercolor-like strokes in the center.
Grade: B+
This poster opts for a candid style, promising some rowdy partying and holiday fun. Not too bad.
Grade: B
The color here is nice, but with the World War I setting and all, you'd think they could have come up with something a little more creative. Oh well, maybe in the theatrical poster.
Grade: B+
Yes, you can put Jennifer Lawrence's and Chris Pratt's faces front-and-center with some stars and a space station below, and call it good advertising that accurately represents the film's plot. But couldn't they think of something better, like incorporating the actors' faces directly in the cosmos?

It's got a pretty obvious 1950s feel and it shows us the film's basic premise in a very simple way. This poster and its two alternative versions are all recreations of real-life photographs of the couple.
Grade: B
It's a very simple poster that shows two people who are clearly in love, but separated by forces beyond their control. It's not very creative, but it works.
Grade: B
This poster is a piece of true art, with dramatic poses and disembodied heads and something a little sinister going on. If only all movie posters could be like this...
Grade: A-
The neon art is instantly evocative of the film's title, even without knowing anything about the plot.
Grade: A
So someone at Marvel made a poster out of emojis...and it's actually pretty good. Like, seriously, the color and detail and pure fun of this poster make it better than the film's previous posters (y'know, the ones with real humans on them) in several ways.

It's a fairly simple poster that blends two foregrounds together to show us a troubled woman and a man who visibly has some kind of presence in her mind.
Grade: A-
It's not a particularly creative idea for a poster, but it succeeds in explaining the film's premise without too much effort.
Grade: B
Between the unusual black-and-white style, "cool kid" poses, and in-your-face tagline, this poster oozes with confidence. It gives us off the attitude of "We know how much everyone's been looking forward to this sequel," and it's correct.
Grade: A-
This poster has a little bit of a weird structure, since it puts all of the actor's faces on the right side and draws your eyes away from the alien spacecraft on the left. Maybe it's intentional, maybe it's not. In any case, there's still imagery to admire here.

This new take on the typical "lone hitman" poster has our hero in a hilariously unfortunate position. It tells us that if you liked seeing people shoot at Keanu Reeves in the first John Wick, then you'll like the sequel.
Grade: A-
It's colorful, enthralling, and it conveys the show's basic premise of combining futuristic technology with the Wild West.
Grade: A-
This gorgeous poster has the general Star Wars feel, with the disproportionate bodies and disembodied faces, but it doesn't feel overly crowded.
Grade: A
These retro "target practice" posters give us a great 70s vibe with some cool neon colors.
Grade: A-
It's a cool way of showing many different characters (and famous stars) at once, but it's also a little frustrating since it tells you nothing about the actual plot (or even premise) of the film.

Kind of exactly what you would expect from a teaser poster for a Wolverine movie. There's nothing especially bad about it, and the child's hand certainly adds a degree of mystery, but it definitely could have been more creative.
Grade: B-
This is such a nice, simple poster that sticks to an eye-catching color scheme. Also notice the large title text that's probably modeled after Jacqueline Kennedy's real signature, which is something biographical films don't really do too often.
Grade: A-
Believe it or not, a creepy skeleton dipped in gold isn't actually that more interesting than a regular skeleton. Meh.
Grade: B-
A pretty effective teaser poster that showcases more of the film's general intergalactic theme than its characters or plot.

The blue and purple colors are definitely cool to look at, but they fail to symbolize anything or tell us something about the film. It's falling into the trap of "artsy for the sake of being artsy."
Grade: B
This surreal, trippy poster seems to totally capture the series' tone. It's not complex, but it still invites you to really study it for a while.
Grade: A-
Okay...so the movie is called Fantastic Beasts and it chooses four pretty un-fantastic humans to put on its poster, with a couple of buildings as a backdrop. Did no one think of splicing some magical creature onto the empty top third of the poster just to liven things up a bit? More like Group Shots and Where to Find Them.
Grade: C+
Between the text, the crappy Photoshop, and the uncreatie tagline, this poster simply reeks of mediocrity.

It's a different style than you would expect for a movie poster, something weird and a little creepy and pretty unique.
Grade: A-
Just like John Wick itself, this poster is a classier spin on the typical secret agent / spy / hitman movie.
Grade: B+
The tagline is pretty stupid and this poster isn't especially creative, but at least it's at a different angle than usual?
Grade: C+
The color and vibrancy of this poster actually makes up for all the overcrowded characters.
Grade: B+
This is an incredibly unique style of poster, looking very much like a mashup of three real, hand-drawn pieces.
