    Every poster they make nowadays is unfathomably lame compared to what was made back in the day. 🫩

    Coming from the same place and came here to say something similar. But also I didn’t want to postergate anything but really….

    From a marketing, movie one sheet and the art style of movie poster from 1940-1990, this modern poster doesn’t tell a story. It’s good verses evil. There were other modern posters that went toward character development, showed us who they are.

    I think this shows more that Disney doesn’t know what to do with this IP and they are watering it down with simple tricks and cliches.

    Quite frankly, I would not be surprised if that is exactly how this poster came to be.

    Every single poster that has come before has been hand-drawn by a human being with passion and a vision. This was something that was slapped together, and it's fucking pathetic.

    Being born the same year Star Wars was released, seeing the 50th Anniversary poster nearly broke my brain. How is it (and I) nearly 50 years old? Does not compute

    Will they show the original ending for EP 6 without prequels Anakin?

    A new one true to the original theatrical. If you know anything about the online DIY remaster community around the original trilogy they've gone through the stills that have been leaked by Disney and they are of a quality previously unseen.

    Seems they're claiming it's some original reels. Obviously no way to confirm that until release, though.

    They have leaked remastered frames already and the De-specialized editions community has confirmed they must be from original reels, no other sources have ever been as high a quality.

    That video seems to be nearly a year old, and as he said himself at the end, who knows what they're gonna add to the final release. Maybe they have the reels, but that doesn't mean that's what we'll get to see.

    Came here to say this. Since George claims the originals are gone.

    Edit: Just stay home and watch this and don't give Disney your time or money.

    The poster says Star Wars. No mention of Episode IV.

    50th anniversary!?!?? I saw it at the movies when it came out. But that'd make me... ancient. No. 30th is the most I can agree to.

    I was just thinking I need to see this in the theater again.

    I swear to the chaos gods, if this is just the version Lucas "remastered"...

    My brain is cooked. For a split second Luke's face looks like Felon Melon. Please send help.

    This poster is shit tho? There's so much wrong with it.

    The xwings noses are too short. Why did they put some shit looking boxes in the bottom right and not anything meaningful? Why have they hidden the land speeder behind the house. The lighting on Han's face is a different direction from everyone else. There's dead space all along the middle section. Make the correlian corvette and star destroyer bigger. Why are Leia's wrists so thin. Why are r2 and c3po so fucking small?. Why is the falcon so small? They used the signature star shape from the original poster and made it soe tiny little nothing in the top right.

    It would not surprise me in the slightest to find out this was AI made and then someone went over it to tidy it up. Its crap.
