Speaking of photorealism, I wouldn't mind Greg Ruth's two pieces for Parasite to be produced in something more than the litho.
Yep. I love his photorealistic takes especially in the poster format. Comes out very clean and refreshing. To Kill a Mockingbird my fav example of this.

Really liked Ruth's GoT and Recursive series, and am quite interested to see how his new comic turns out.

Nobody cares anymore.
Exactly!

Plus, WTF happened here, everything else looks like a junior college "draw the bowl of fruit on the table" picture and then he fell asleep when he got to the buttons. Total distraction and looks like amateur hour.

And I agree, talk about being played out. God only knows Disney is going to milk the living craaap out Baby Yoda with never-ending merch that's being shipped from China as we speak with a bonus touch of COVID19 in every box! The best thing that could happen in season 2 of The Mandalorian is Baby Yoda's death in the first episode that causes Mando to go on the grittiest killing sprees in the known universe. But instead were going to get 9 seasons of Mando and his sidekick casually flying around planet to planet repeating the same stories over and over kinda like the 70s/80s Incredible Hulk TV series. Yawn.

Yeah, the buttons look a bit goofy. Although, check out what they look like in the show, and they look goofy on that too. I bought the variant though... love the 5x7 size and it's only $35. For 35, I can get over the buttons.

I like a lot of Kurtz's posters, but am not a fan of his portrait work. Photo-realism can be impressive, but I prefer things that I haven't seen before.
Agree, the portrait stuff leaves me cold. I think his monogram and sig are way to big on them too.

I'm more curious, what was the point of "The Drop" if something like this wasn't on it?

^ There is really no point/rhyme or reason to most things Mondo does anymore.
