    I'm unfamiliar with Batman: The Animated Series, but looking up some Mondo posters from the series right now, there are some really great ones out there!

    With the poster style of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny being released? I sincerely hope and pray the Bond series returns to this magical style. It is simply timeless!

    I won't believe it until I see it. However, with the number of posters that comes with each film, it would be great if they came up with an illustrated variant poster.

    With the exception of the CR posters? The rest of the Craig ones did absolutely nothing for me. Especially when you look at what each movie delivered, surely they could have been far more creative?!!

    Yes, I definitely agree that a lot of those posters have been OK at best. As a designer myself though, I understand how more minimalistic and simpler posters are easier to use – not just as posters hanging in the cinema (where a gorgeous illustrated poster would be presented in all its glory) but in small sizes on digital devices, in ads etc.

    Those two posters are really great, @R1s1ngs0n! Can't say I've heard of Mad Duck Posters before. Are they a poster shop equivalent of Mondo?

    Although not as reputed as Mondo, I would say MDP operate on the same level, considering their prints are of very high quality and they employ the services of the very best artists in the business (Martin Ansin, Kevin Tong, Jonathan Burton, Laurent Durieux, to name a few).
    They are the go-to poster company for Hitchcock and Noir fans.

    Some prints that went on sale on their website (mostly sold out)

    If I didn't already own the grail that is the Goldfinger poster by Todd Slater, I would have definitely splurged for Adam Stothard's awesome vintage style print.

    Interesting, thanks! I looked through their online shop, and there are certainly many gems to be found there. I gave them a follow on Instagram, so I can keep an eye on future poster releases!

    Those Bond posters are great too; I particularly like the FRWL one. It's not often we see Moneypenny on a poster!

    The five month wait was totally worth it. What a beauty!

    Now only need to figure out where to display it, but not before I have a nice custom frame made for it.

    Gorgeous, the green reminds me of the Jaguar Mk VIII in the film.

    Indeed it does. It also has one of the best title fonts I've ever seen.
    So happy to own this print.

    The artist is Kevin Tong.
    He’s done many prints for Mondo (this one was commissioned and sold by Madduckposters), the most notable of which are his stunning Mulholland Drive regular and variant editions (both fetch minimum 2500-3500usd on the secondary market).

    As soon as I look at that poster the soundtrack plays in my head, I have the CD somewhere. Great poster.

    Thanks, @R1s1ngs0n. Had a look at his artwork, and I'm very impressed. That Vertigo poster is by far the best artwork I found of his though!

    Little known fact: The working title of Rising Sun was "Sean Connery has no ears."

    Hahaha! I've seen this poster several times (not the movie though…), but I haven't once thought about the missing ear!

    These posters popped up in my Instagram feed yesterday. Were it not for other priorities, I'd be very interested in getting the regular edition one!
