Looks unfinished to me, and the plane's and Joaquin's shadows are at completely different angles, but maybe that's intentional for some reason.

To me it looks finished. It's colours are subtle and the composition feels calming to look at, which is so contradictory to the surreal imagery. I'll be adding it to my collection.

This is growing on me. Kind of reminds me of a retro travel poster.

Yeah. Think I like it more as a piece of art than as a poster for the movie. The airplane scene is an odd choice - it's a lovely shot in the movie but not necessarily what I would've chosen to represent the film. It does convey Theodore's loneliness, though.

It's not what I've have gone with to capture the film. But I'll pick it up.

Not really into it... though it does resemble a vintage travel poster.

The color palette reminds me a lot of Casey Burns' work, and I love me some Burns. To echo others sentiments, though, I feel like this doesn't really capture the movie that well. Puff puff pass

Yes.


This reminds me a ot of Tomine; which I like! But, if I were to make an educated guess I would assume the angular oddity of the shadows is concurrent with the underlining theme of the film; that technology and humanity can never be truly aligned because by nature they are two totally different entities no matter how hard man's loneliness attempts to force it through artificial means.
