I wanted better Rogue One posters. I’m not crazy about any of them.

The original posters for Star Wars are my jam. The prequels I kinda just shrug at

Me too but honestly I love the painted Drew Struzan prequel ones. They give the trilogy the epic feel it should have.

What’s your favourite original trilogy poster? I’m torn between this one for Star Wars and this Return of the Jedi one:

“Remember, the Force will be with you. Always.”

The Drew Struzan documentary is excellent.

His Blade Runner: Final Cut poster is gorgeous too.

Looks really nice! I wish my star wars collection was that organised.

Thanks!

I’ve got a ton of stuff in boxes and not enough room to display them. I also have more posters than I have walls for. I switch things around from time to time.

My favorite of all-time (and supposedly George Lucas’ favorite as well):

Style “D” “Circus” poster, 1978.

…and I might as well post my favorite ESB poster, while I’m at it:
1982 re-release

I love the more minimalist and simplistic star wars posters. That first Return of the Jedi one has a special place in my heart.

My all time favorite piece of SW poster artwork is the 1997 SE triptych made by Drew Struzan.

I hate the Disney Channel Live Action Universe

I really don’t like the PT/SE/DVD posters. They’re all so ridiculously busy. Same thing with the TFA poster. I don’t like the “Here’s literally everything that happens in the movie crammed into 2x3 feet” style of poster art.

Reading R + L ≠ J theories

The Star Wars 1997 one is kind of weird since it’s Empire Strikes Back Leia, and Han in Return of the Jedi clothes with A New Hope head.

All three have errors. I think it’s supposed to be an intentional mixture of elements but to be honest it just looks wrong.

I would love a better poster for Rise of Skywalker.

There area few decent posters up in the Episode IX : The Rise Of Skywalker - film & fan art, + covers etc thread - some official, some alternative, or fan-made…

The Rogue One : A Star Wars Story - film & fan art, + covers etc thread may be of interest - there are quite a few in there 😉

Nobody has topped The Empire Strikes Back poster by Kastel.
