Love that Doom is represented big style! Watched it just last weekend, still my favorite.

Man I just do not get the love for Gabz. I have never cared for his stuff. Others seem to like it though so wtf do I know.

Maybe everyone's just falling for Harrison Ford's dreamy-but-slightly-uneven eyes.

Supercool. Plus I never thought I'd own a River Phoenix print

Wonka, bitching? No drymounting way.

Great poster. Love the fade on the pants.

It's a compilation of imported screen grabs and old promo visuals...so hard to mess up the 'likeness' when its already done for you.
Maybe, but it seems like that might be part of the deal now with older properties and likeness rights. I think they're easier to get past approvals. It may not be the most original or unique /stylish take, but I think it looks nice and checks all the boxes for the most part. Usually I'm just so-so on this artist, so I think it might be my favorite thing he's done. I kind of like the trilogy take for saving wall space, and reg all the way for the traditional colors. Also got to use some rewards credit for the first time , which is always nice.

That’s a pretty Indy poster. Would have preferred Raiders in the center though since that’s the most iconic. Definitely a stronger composition than his Star Wars.
