Can You Identify All of the Heroes from the Superhero Film Alphabet?

If you've been reading for a little while, then you may have been part of the fun in figuring out various decades of the film alphabet, and even some of the ABC's of horror and sci-fi. Now artist Stephen Wildish has taken the time to craft yet another journey through letters, but this time assembling a bunch of superheros that would make The Avengers blush. Though previous installments have had some challenges with the minimal drawings, especially with sparsely used letters like "Z" and "X," The Superhero Film Alphabet doesn't seem to be as difficult. But there are definitely some tricky letters in there. Look below!

First Official Poster for Lesbian Werewolf Film 'Jack & Diane' is Here

By Alex Billington

Love is a monster. I hear so many complaints about the crappy Hollywood movie posters we feature, here's finally a poster that I think is unique, eye-catching, bold, and impressive for an indie, and I hope you guys all agree! Vulture has unveiled the first official poster for Bradley Rust Gray's Jack & Diane, that "lesbian werewolf" film we've been following its development for over five years. They finally made it, shot it, and it's ready to make its premiere at the Tribeca Film Fest. Jack & Diane stars Juno Temple as Diane, and Riley Keough as Jack, two teenage girls who meet in New York City, and start to notice changes after a night of kissing. Take a look, this is a great poster, bravo to Bradley Rust Gray for kicking things off on the right foot.

Lucky for those of you in San Francisco who a big James Bond fans. The world famous Castro Theatre (website) is hosting a James Bond 50th Anniversary screening series, showing eight of the classic Bond films on the big screen as double- and triple-features coming up this weekend.

See Some Awesome Alternative Posters for 'The Lion King' and More

By Ethan Anderton

Since Disney has a style all their own, usually when it comes to promoting their animated classics, or even their films from Pixar Animation, the posters, Blu-Ray/DVD covers, etc. are colorful, bright, and just typical of what we've come to expect from The House of Mouse. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's always interesting to see a completely different artistic take on a familiar brand. That's what artist Rowan Stocks Moore has done by delivering an amazing set of posters for Disney classics like The Little Mermaid, The Aristocats, Bambi, The Lion King and more. Each of them is truly stunning. See them all below!

Check Out This Stunning Four-Panel 'Alien' Mural in East London

By Alex Billington

In East London, no one can hear you scream! When I first came across this Alien art by EndOfTheLine, a UK-based "creative collective", I thought it was commissioned by Fox. It looks that good. Indeed, it is just some street art, but it's an amazing mural anyway. "Jim was getting itchy trigger finger," they state on their blog. "We set him a challenge to paint all four panels on Great Eastern St in one day, no backup, no support just a big bag of paint and a handful of caps, Basing the production on one of our favourite film franchises, Alien, by Ridley Scott and HR Geiger, visionaries both." The results are fantastic, as seen in photos below.

Some Alfred Hitchcock Films Get 8-Bit Nintendo Video Game Covers

By Ethan Anderton

Not too long ago we featured a small batch of posters using 8-bit characters in scenes from movies like Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and The Matrix. And just this week we highlighted a fantastic piece of work that took the events of the Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window and composed them into one single 20-minute shot. Now Hitchcock and 8-bit video games combine as a graphic artist going by Joebot has taken a few of Hitchcock's classic films like North by Northwest and Psycho and imagined what it would have been like if they were adapted into video games for the original Nintendo Entertainment System.

Look at This Awesome Fan-Made Poster for 'Carrie' with Chloe Moretz

By Ethan Anderton

Just one day after she was said to be a fronturnner for the role, Let Me In and Kick-Ass star Chloe Moretz officially entered talks to play the titular role in Carrie, a new adaptation of Stephen King's classic horror tale. There's no better time for the story to take place, what with all the talks about bullying infecting our schools, especially with The Weinstein Company's crusade to have their film doc Bully by as many young kids as possible despite getting an R-rating from the MPAA. Well, in no time at all, a fan made a cool poster, and the remake's director, Kimberly Peirce, gave her seal of approval to the simple but effective work.

'One Love' - Alternate Poster for Kevin Macdonald's Bob Marley Doc

By Alex Billington

One love, man! I'm a big Bob Marley fan, and I'm pretty damn excited for Marley, the definitive doc about the Jamaican reggae singer. We've already seen a few official trailers, but Magnolia has put out a new poster to compliment that colorful one. The poster features Marley's face made up entirely of symbols, created by Swedish artist Viktor Hertz. "The idea behind the pictogram mosaic portrait, is to somehow show the complexity and all the different things that made the man behind the music." So he used special designs like 11 baby pictograms for his 11 kids, a football player, a gun chamber and more hidden in it. Cool. Take a look!

Check These Out: Hilarious Propaganda Posters for 'Hunger Games'

By Ethan Anderton

The adaptation of Suzanne Collins' hit young adult novel The Hunger Games is still dominating the box office, and it will be interesting to see whether or not Wrath of the Titans or Mirror Mirror can knock the mighty sci-fi film off its throne. In the meantime, the internet is having fun with all the hype surrounding the film from how awkward the tabloid relationship name would be for Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) to this new batch of hilarious propaganda posters from the comedy factory that is College Humor. Using some familiar imagery, these posters make light of the brutal nature of the games.

This is going to be a great year for Indiana Jones fans. The entire film trilogy (plus Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull) hits Blu-Ray later this year for the first time, and it will be the best Dr. Jones has looked on your home theater system in years. Now we have another cool bit for all you Indy fans out there as French graphic designer Maxime Pecourt has taken the time to craft spectacular posters for Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, and The Last Crusade (we already love her for leaving out the abysmal fourth film). They're simple in their design, but they are certainly nothing to scoff at. Look!

Now we have some posters where classic video games and films collide as graphic artist Eric Palmer (via Twitter) has put together 8-bit movie posters for movies like The Matrix, Star Wars and others.
