Movie Poster: Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo

Cinema Posters and Lobby Cards of Andrei Tarkovsky's Films

So I watched this Royksopp music video that a friend sent to me, which had a comment by some random guy referencing this Russian film from 1979 called "Stalker" which in turn led me to discover the director Andrei Tarkovsky, and his notable films -- as well as the amazing posters and designs that were made for them, including Solaris and The Sacrifice.  Images come from this fabulous non-profit tribute site to Tarkovsky, nostalghia.com, which is worth visiting if you love the director or his films.  Design credits are unknown for a lot of these, but some are really fantastic.  The Solaris poster at the top is the Flyer Goodness favorite.

Iconic Film Posters by Kairon Sarri

Kairon Sarri is a designer/illustrator from Franca - São Paulo, Brazil. Came across his film posters while Flickr surfing, and thought that they deserved some more attention.  Its really interesting how when posters are made for movies and television series the totality of the content can be summed up into one powerful iconic image.  He not only does a good job at that, but he makes it look clean, and really liking his corner text placements.
