The Dark Knight Rises “A Fire Will Rise” One Sheet Movie Poster

The Dark Knight Rises “A Fire Will Rise” One Sheet Movie Poster

After so many great movie banners and character movie posters, how did Warner Bros. marketing team screw up The Dark Knight Rises’ first traditional one sheet movie poster this badly? It just looks like they took two different posters and merged them together. Where’s the artistry in this poster? I think what throws off this image the most is the two different perspectives. Batman is looking straight at you while the background makes gives off the appearance you’re looking up. Instead of being a cool “special effect,” it’s kinda giving me a headache. Hopefully the movie doesn’t induce vertigo as well.

The Dark Knight premieres in theaters everywhere on July 20, 2012.

Copter Girl Custom Munny by Huck Gee

Copter Girl Custom Munny Vinyl Figure by Huck Gee

Earlier this week Huck Gee released his companion piece to last month’s Copter Boy Munny custom, and it’s entitled, appropriately enough, Copter Girl! Now don’t let Copter Girl’s cute demeanor fool you. Copter Boy’s equally talented, tough as nails, troublemaking younger sister was often the ringleader in their mischievous endeavors. Not to be content with simply dodging chores, she would perch herself on a nearby window ledge, fresh apple in hand, to gloat her nimble charms and favored position over her toiling brother.

Copter Girl Custom Munny Vinyl Figure by Huck Gee

Each Copter Girl custom Munny comes signed and numbered by the artist, includes all of the accessories show here, and will be packaged in a padded, hand assembled and laser etched wooden box. 10 Copter Girls were created in all, with each figure retailing for $875. To reserve one of these hand painted, hand crafted vinyl figures email sales@huckgee.com immediately, because once these Copter Girls fly out of Huck’s studios they’ll never been seen again!

Breaking Bad Screen Print #5 - Saul Goodman by Chris DeLorenzo

Breaking Gifs Limited Edition Breaking Bad Screen Prints - Saul Goodman by Chris DeLorenzo

Saul Goodman” by Chris DeLorenzo is the fifth screen print in the Breaking Bad Alternate Reality Game Series released in honor of the hit AMC television show Breaking Bad’s fifth and final season. Bob Odenkirk steals ever scene he's in as Walter White’s shady attorney Saul Goodman, causing Saul to quickly become a Breaking Bad fan favorite. What could have easily been a throwaway guest starring role quickly evolved into an multifaceted and intriguing character. Without a doubt one of the smartest things Breaking Bad did was making Odenkirk’s Saul Goodman a permanent cast member in Season 3.

Chris DeLorenzo’s limited edition Breaking Bad screen print “Saul Goodman” measures 18”x24”, has a run size of 300 pieces (only 200 available for purchase) and comes hand signed and numbered by the artist. The print will retail for $50 each and can be purchased here.

To celebrate and honor the fifth and final season of Breaking Bad, 16 of the top artists and graphic designers have been commissioned to create screenprints depicting some of the series' most memorable scenes, characters and shocking moments for Gallery1988 and its Breaking Bad ARG, Breaking Gifs. These screenprints are hand-pulled, each its own individual work of art, in an edition of just 300, with only 200 available to the public through this project. Once the edition is sold out, they will never be printed again.
