 Spider-man the web slinger we all love he's been in a lot of films over the years some have been great some have been The amazing spider-man series today though. I want to talk about the posters Specifically of the MCU ilk now in the past. We've had some beautiful lovely posters such as the following Look at some of these gorgeous works of art Spider-man up close personal. There's a lot to tell there's a lot of story in those eyes Hungry eyes you could say just a song Hungry eyes. I'm off topic. Let's get back on track. Let's focus out of come on. Let's start with spider-man homecoming Hmm imagine thinking that's a good poster you work for Disney You are commissioned to make a poster for spider-man one of the largest Studios on the planet one of the largest super hero properties and this is what you come up with a fourth grade elementary school collage of Some of the random shit in the film nobody on this poster looks happy to be here except for aunt May What is she smiling about? Everyone else is dead serious not only is Tony Stark engulfed in flames But he's got a bird man blowing out of his heart out of his chest cavity I like the spider-man suit, but it looks like he's wearing a Casio watch in the poster this band is so thick He's like a douchebag go into a fish concert Also, what is the focal point of this poster because you know what my eyes are drawn directly to iron man flying above the spider-man logo? I Is he the main character here if we zoom in we can see shocker even made the poster He's he's so tiny and he's doing his little attack that he does precisely one time in the movie This was poster material to the designer I would just love to know what the theme of the poster is the characters are looking in every direction every which way Happy suiting up like he's going to prom Which I guess is maybe the most relevant thing in the poster because they do in fact attend a prom in this But I think what truly annoys me the most is the july 7th yellow font treatment Where did they pull that color from you could eyedrop this poster and you're not going to find that yellow anywhere else Well, what an obnoxious choice and I get you want to draw the eye down there, but no you don't You don't want to draw the eye to the way bottom of the poster for the movie release date You want to entice people to see the movie to begin with And nothing says go see the new spider-man more than a poster featuring 72 people doing random shit Failure awful poster. Let's move on. There's like seven or eight spider-man homecoming posters I don't know if they're all official that i'm seeing online I think they are and there's one tell there's one constant in all of them and it might not be what you think It's not spider-man. It's the avengers tower. It somehow makes its way into almost every single one of these posters It's like a fucking wears Waldo of the avengers tower Someone over at marvel was like I don't know if spider-man's gonna sell this picture by himself We got to have the avengers tower in there. That's what people are really going to be drawn to Avengers look at this boom avengers tower boom avengers tower Enhance boom avengers tower Kaboom Next up on the shit list is spider-man far from home. This might be worse Oh my god That chrome spider-man symbol behind these actors is atrocious Someone learned how to use the cropping tool, baby Look how they cropped them kind of into the symbol. They thought it was a good idea on paper It didn't play out that way. Let's talk about the pros one We only have three actors on this poster instead of 35. So at least we've scaled back there. That's it That's the pro only three actors all again looking in different directions nick fury's got a gun on the poster He's he for some reason made the post. Listen, I love samuel jackson But is he really the prominent character we need displayed here for spider-man? We have a couple different stock background locations the big ben tower. It's kind of telling people This is a cross-country film. You're gonna be going to different places with spider-man Most have been the same crew that did the last set of posters because we got that atrocious yellow again That obnoxious look at me. Look at me at the top and bottom I will say this at least they carried the color from the beginning to the end of this story this poster story At least there's some consistency even if it's terrible. What the fuck is the light source on this poster? Look at the chrome every angle of that thing is getting hit with light harsh light on all angles Even the actors are lit up very inconsistently because you know that wasn't they weren't shot for this poster I think that's a problem in general with new movie posters is they're not artistically done They're not painted or drawn ahead of time or planned out So they're really just taking photos. They already have and just Splatting people in here and there and hopefully they work There's a myriad of posters in this same vein a few different styles using the three characters Sometimes hullin as a mask on sometimes he doesn't there are some good ones though out of this film There's there's better ones for sure than homecoming this one for example. I really dig It's got the different stickers of the places that spider-man's traveling to he's got of course The I Love New York sticker which props his hometown. It's a playful poster. It reflects spider-man more Plus we just have a beautiful illustration of the spider-man mask. It's simple. It's clean It's creative and it's different. It's interesting. It sets it apart from all those other stock photos we see Here's another one. I like spider-man's hanging upside down reading a magazine in london. Can we enhance? Oh good. I just wanted to make sure the avengers tower wasn't back there. We were okay I like the poster because it tells you that this is a road trip film spider-man's not in new york There's some nice symmetry going on, but it's not perfect Things are off a little bit just enough to keep you interested if everything was too lined up It's not as exciting So the person knew what they were doing here. They took some time on it and I give them respect for that Here's another one of the posters that uses the three guys the stock photos We threw in a couple others though for good measure. You got zendaya in there looking completely lost Happy happy's on here again And then for some reason they just threw in one of the the digital monster creatures at the bottom just just like small It's so weird because in the film these these creatures these titans are larger than life Right their big scale So to put them in this tiny little aspect really does nothing for the audience or for the viewer looking at this poster It makes them look weak. It makes it look pathetic. I also have no idea what the triangle symbols are for I don't remember that being a thing in the movie. Is that a mysterio Symbol of sorts. I I really don't know Look at happy. He looks so pleasant. He's just like he's just happy to be on the poster. He's like, hey cool I'm here again. I'm here. The sky is so ugly though. It looks completely Manufactured nothing nothing about this is interesting except for tom haulins jawline. That's son of a bitch has a beautiful jaw God to have his jawline would be just Just wish I could do it No, it's never gonna happen for me Spider-man no way homes on its way out and I was looking for posters for that. There's a shit ton of them I don't know if any of them are official. I even googled official and I came up pretty short I swore there was a doctor strange one with with peter parker Uh, but it failed to resonate any sort of enjoyment from me So I guess I'll just leave it at that if there's any other posters you want me to talk about and rag on Let me know in the comments I'll try to mix in a couple of you know positive comments here and there as well The mcu has plenty of material So i'm not done talking about their posters to begin with but just in case there's any that come to mind Let me know in the comments and please like the video and share it around if you had a good time Subscribe if you haven't and hopefully I'll see you around
