Mondo Poster News & Rumors

Diabolos80 · Wed Jan 20, 2016 4:31 pm

New World got off to a good start, but the third act lost it completely. Could make a nice poster though. Tree of Life was just okay and To The Wonder had turrible Ben Affleck (really?). I haven't seen Knight of Cups but I've read bad things... Thin Red Line is fantastic though, and that matters right now.

To be fair To the Affleck's part in To the Wonder was mostly just him shown walking around from behind. I enjoyed it it (but I'm a big Malick fan).

Both are equally excellent. I think I'm going Green just because if the room it's going to hang in.

I still pinch myself whenever I think about the fact that Mondo is doing a Malick series.

He knocked this out of the park. I like both colors.

I think Tree of Life is a masterpiece and I hope he makes a poster for it. It's nice to see Mondo making some prints for filmmakers of this caliber.

I asked Mondo on twitter if they have Hanuka lined up for the whole series:

Not necessarily! Just happened to do the first two

Mondo's got him doing Fight Club next. Right?

Best post of 2016 thus far.

Re: New World
I actually like it more and more each time I see it. It really works for me, and the ending is haunting yet perfect.
Totally get if it doesn't work for other folks though.

i like it for a criterion cover but would not hang the print.

Malick fans should check out Krisha when it opens on March 18th. The director, Trey Edward Schults, worked in the camera department on a few Malick films and hit it out of the park with his debut. It played at SXSW and won the Grand Jury Award and the Audience Award. He filmed it at his mom's house and his family makes up most of the cast, but the movie is surprisingly well done. I covered it at the Houston Cinema Arts Festival: http://www.nerdlocker.com/movies/housto ... tival-2015
