Besides that being a racist change, sm I the only one who despises movie posters with dozens of people looking in random directions? Can we just have nice artistic posters, please?

What would you say if I told you they are artistic, it's just not a style you like

[–] accideath@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, sure, they are. But they’re formulaic and uncreative corporate art

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Wait til you see the movie they represent

They do make the kind of posters you like you just don't see them outside of promotional material.

The reason being is that the many faces orange blue posters literally are gaming (most people's) brains into engaging with the poster.

Humans like faces and are drawn to them.

That being said, I've seen some really nice dune posters where it's like a backdrop of the desert with the mc and lots of negative space

Yes, love those posters. And with dune, for example, they’re much more prominent. You’ll really find that one. For Disney stuff? No chance.
