Weekly Roundup #15

Every Friday, we're taking a look at the film and television posters released over the past week. Enjoy! 
There's not much you could put on this film's poster besides its central interracial relationship, but at least the mellow tones and slight graininess help to convey the 1950s setting. And props for putting the female character in the seemingly-superior, comforting position that the male would usually take on a poster. 
This poster mixes the film's revolutionary theme with the style of an old parchment paper and America's most recognizable symbol.
For the first (and probably final) time, X-Men: Apocalypse nails its marketing campaign with these posters stylized as 80's album covers. 
The actors' WTF faces come off more as laughable than "cool" or "badass." And really, I know that Michael Bay has always been quick to sexualize Megan Fox, but I thought that we were beyond the typical action movie posters where the women pose with their behinds facing the screen and their other curves properly visible. 
The Purge: Election Year already continues its trend of putting a sick twist on current American patriotism/politics with this latest tagline. 
More hand-swords! More hoods! More ancient architecture! Yay!

Which poster is your favorite? Tell me in the comments, and feel free to subscribe.
