Every Friday, we're taking a look at the film and television posters released over the past week. Enjoy!
Posters for "ultimate secret agent" films (such as the Bourne series, Bond series, and pretty much every Jason Statham movie) often show little more than the main protagonist with a gun, so you can't give this one points for originality. However, the tagline does nicely introduce/announce the title of the film: Jason Bourne.
Finding Dory's new posters all feature the titular fish hiding in a familiar underwater environment. It's like "Where's Waldo?" for idiots.
What's this movie about? Not sure, but who wouldn't want to see a love story with permanent-B-lister Nicholas Hoult and terrible-Twilight-star-who's-actually-kinda-talented-now Kristen Stewart?
The first poster for the third installment in the Purge franchise continues the patriotic theme, this time with a twist on the typical "I voted" pin (appropriate given the title of the film).
The entire concept of this movie (the aliens from the first one return) completely lacks originality, so it should be no surprise that the filmmakers made the logical decision to essentially recreate the classic 1996 poster with updated effects. Let's face it: modern cinema is chock full of alien disasters and big floaty spaceships (Battle Los Angeles, Man of Steel, Transformers), so Resurgence has to rely on pure nostalgia to stand out from the rest.
Do you recognize any of the new(?) heroes or spaceships? No. Do you have any clue where this stands in the Star Wars universe? No. Will this series be good and/or satisfying to fans? Probably not. But one thing's for sure: you'll be able to buy all of Freemaker-inspired playsets at a LEGO store near you.
Stop trying to make Divergent happen. It's not going to happen!
(Also, there is a thin line between "cool futuristic-looking font" and "font that people can't read", and Allegiant has officially crossed that line.)
