It's boring as drymount. I mean sure it looks nice but its not a great poster at all. It looks like he went through a drive checklist and wanted to hit every box.

Hot take/unpopular opinion - I think Rory's best art to date has been Kylo/Rey

I don't see how you single out the graduate as his only good print when it's the same as all his other movie posters. One character as the focus of the print. Not much else going on. Graduate is just as boring as Drive or Ex Machina or Captain America. Best movie poster he has done is Baby Driver imo, and I wouldn't even call it great. He's fantastic at likenesses and color seps though (assuming he does his own seps)

It's because I love animals. Duh.

PS because conceptually I do think it is his best poster.

im surprised there is a bunch of love for ex machina.

it's a shot from the movie with some floaty panels that don't have much to do with the film. (the floaty panels not the robot)

WHA? The foil version to me was the best print of 2017!
I mean I appreciate the art and foil is cool enough. It's beautiful but the composition is meh to me. I'll be looking out for another Ex Machina print for sure. Drive and Rey are my favorites only because The Graduate is like putting up a Baby Driver print now, that being said, The Graduate is fantastic.

I am having problems with Rory's site to get the new Sallet print, is the site down / messed up...or just me?

Never mind working now.
