Olly's trio, and other Mondo artists from their 2010 series, are in this book which just came out as well.zombiejp wrote:You have to wonder if any of Olly Moss' Star Wars posters will end up in there. Easily some of the most creative Star Wars posters created in the past decade. Possibly longer.

Eng's is great but it reminds me of the old school Star Wars arcade cabinet and doesn't really offer a new take on the franchise.Bikejoh wrote:But it really is..RambosRemodeler wrote:Said no one everdskdaniel wrote:Englert's is better.
Edit: read Eng not Englert, but my opinion stands

I think the Englert one is pretty meh. The Eng is kinda cool and while I don't really get the hype for the Moss, they did really bring that minimalist style to the forefront so I respect the fudge out of it. Obviously the Stout's are amazing. There are just so many damn SW prints out there... give some love to other movies already dangit!

Damn the LD Pulp Fiction looks fantastic in person. LD's prints are so damn sharp.

So... a Blade Runner sequel, huh? Should be interesting at least.

Neither the Englert or the Eng SW offer anything new or original, but understand how some folks would enjoy the images on their walls.63schoeffling wrote:I think the Englert one is pretty meh.

The Olly set was/is really refreshing and remains a huge link for folks in the non-print or collecting world to find out about Mondo prints and the like. I would argue that this set and the Slater Goldfinger are the two biggest releases from Mondo on various levels in terms of culture awareness and saturation.
