The Dark Knight The Poster

I'd like to see something other than these processed-looking photoshop jobs all the time. Not that some of the examples in this thread aren't cool, but I found the poster campaign for Begins, and frankly the trend to use photos all the time in all movie posters, a little boring. They're generic.

How about painted or drawn posters, by comic artists (someone like say, Jock, Lee Bermejo). Or some really graphic design oriented stuff - stark or a little abstract.

Look to posters of decades gone by.

The V for Vendetta poster campaign was one of the coolest of recent years - a very refreshing change from the usual stuff.

I'm not saying do anything exactly like that, but that level of originality. Something that stands out.
 
I actually like the one above, a lot. Although I think the quote is a little too long. Looks almost like a paragraph sitting at the top of the page.

This has been the best so far IMO.

Good design. The only problem is Spider-man 3 using it next year. So, impossible to see the green light. Even being more apropriate to Batman universe. If only Warner had Sony's marketing department... Its a shame we had average/poor marketing aproach to Begins (quantity is not quality. We need a good teaser, a good individual poster for the main characters/plot ideas and a final theatrical poster). And Superman marketing? Terrible. So bad it hurts. Warner: hire good graphic designers for the sequels!!!!!!
 
This is a poster I made before the Joker was casted. I wanted Glover in there as the Joker.

I think they'll keep Batman in focus. I hope they do something darker, something truly iconic, something like my manip here:

Batman: Electric Piss.

I made this poster because i think this: in the last film batman confronts ear, scarecrow and Ras, personal villians, in next film batman will fight with public villians, like the joker in gotham city, not only in the narrows. so, for that, i put the bats flying from the shadows to the wayne tower, exactly in the zone where the last villian falls. (Ra´s al Gul)

I wanna know which of this posters you prefer?

I'm letting you guys know that I'll be starting to post much more often and make more posters.

I know some people have wondered where all the previous posters have gone. I'm coming back. :)

Poster looks great, especially this effective Bat-symbol with the main title.

This is one I made right after watching Batman Begins. I like the Dead End Joker.
