Yesterday we featured a pretty disappointing final theatrical poster for G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and it was nothing short of a Photoshop mess. But today, two new international posters have surfaced that have a much sleeker design and much less obvious glossy touch-ups (though Bruce Willis still looks weird). Honestly, Paramount should just take one of these posters and slap the English title on it and send that out across the United States instead. Not only do they look better (mostly because of less dead white space), but they both fit with the original design from the poster for Rise of Cobra from three years ago. Look below! ›››

We've alrady gotten a first look at Amanda Seyfried as the infamous porn star Linda Lovelace in the aptly titled biopic Lovelace, and even caught a glimpse at a revamped poster for her most famous adult film Deep Throat with Seyfried looking rather seductive. Now a brand new official poster for the film has surfaced, and looks straight from the cover of some sort of non-existent magazine from the 70's with an impressive cast list. For those just joining us the film follows Linda Lovelace, who is used and abused by the porn industry at the behest of her coercive husband (Peter Sarsgaard), before taking control of her life. ›››

The trailers have done all but show me that the film will be absolutely astounding fantasy, but June is coming soon enough, so Snow White and the Huntsman is just around the corner. In the meantime, Universal is already keen on a sequel with writer David Koepp being hired to script it with the hopes of bringing the first film's director Rupert Sanders back for a second round right away. Now the marketing machine is pumping out a few last minute efforts at raising awareness in the form of a few character posters (compared to the plethora of them for The Expendables 2 and G.I. Joe: Retaliation). Check them out below! ›››

While the second film in the series didn't do anything to impress, the couple trailers for Men in Black 3 do get me rather excited. It might be just the prospect of the black suits fighting the scum of the universe again, but it's more likely the amazing impression Josh Brolin delivers as a young Agent K, the character originated by Tommy Lee Jones. But now Will Smith gets the spotlight in an all-new poster with Agent J riding one of the monocycles we've caught a glimpse on in the trailers. It's a cool shot, but whoever Photoshopped those sunglasses onto Smith's face needs to be fired immediately. Either way I'm still excited. ›››

Just recently, two more slick posters for Marc Webb's The Amazing-Spider-Man surfaced featuring Andrew Garfield as everyone's friendly neighborhood wallcrawler with the skyline in his sights and scaling skyscrapers as well. Now a new poster gives us another angle of the full Spidey suit, complete with webshooters (check out the most recent viral for a closer look at those), with the backdrop of the city keeping the marketing theme looking rather metallic and pretty damn cool. But it looks like Spider-Man has seen better days, as those gashes across his chest likely came from The Lizard (Rhys Ifans). Look below! ›››

So far the hype machine has been relatively quiet for the veteran action ensemble flick The Expendables 2 with only a teaser trailer paving the way for an August release later this year. Surely there will be another full trailer showin up sometime soon, but in the meantime, we have a taste of the entire line-up of meatheads in no less than 12, that's right 12, different character posters that include returning cast members like Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Jason Statham and more, along with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis having beefier parts and Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme joining the scene. ›››

For those who will be journeying out late Thursday, May 3rd, just to see The Avengers on the big screen at midnight into May 4th, you'll already have a treat by seeing Earth's mightiest heroes assemble on the big screen for the first time ever. But if you're seeing it on an IMAX screen, not only will you see it in the largest format possible, but for those attending the midnight screening, you'll get a limited edition poster to commemorate this iconic moment in your cinematic history. IMAX has just revealed their exclusive swag that will be in your hands as you sit back and enjoy the glory of The Avengers around the country. Look! ›››

The first two trailers were full of over-the-top 80's fashion and a soundtrack that would make The Breakfast Club blush, solidifying that it's going to be awesome to Tom Cruise singing his heart out in Rock of Ages this summer along with Julianne Hough, Diego Boneta, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Malin Akerman, Russell Brand, Alec Baldwin and more. This jukebox musical with the tunes of Bon Jovi, Journey, Def Leppard and more might have audiences singing in the theaters, but until then, we have a fabulously 80's new poster with all characters Photoshopped to the max. It's not the best, but it has star power and glam. ›››

Since it doesn't seem like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is going to stop taking itself a little too seriously (at least in my opinion) anytime soon, I guess we're going to have to deal with this marketing campaign until the film hits theaters on June 22nd this summer. While I get that the premise of the film is meant to be ridiculous, the tone, based on the couple trailer, feels like anything but that, and that seems like an issue to me. But for those still interested, we have a new international poster with the titular bad-ass president wielding an axe on a moving train but with enough composure to hold onto his signature hat. ›››

Since the red band trailer brought us all the blood and boobs you've come to expect from Piranha 3DD, it's no surprise that the latter is featured more prominently than the deadly titular fish of the horror comedy on a sexy new poster. It's a little too touched up from the Photoshop side of things, and while that obscured face somewhat resembles "30 Rock" star Katrina Bowden (one of the film's cast members), American Reunion taught us that her chest companions don't exactly fit the "DD" part of the bill. Alas, there will be plenty of gore and nudity to feast eyes on this summer when the film hits theaters in June. Poster below! ›››
