I just visited Tavis Coburns website. He's really really really good!

Comment by Inka Leoni on February 21, 2010 at 4:38am: I love how they picked up on this trend of re-designing movie posters.
After thinking long and hard I've come to the conclusion that I like 2 things about Avatar. The night scene and this movie poster.

Comment by Amy Wong on February 20, 2010 at 3:38pm: They all look so awesome, and in amazing detail. WOW. I have yet to watch Precious and Up In the Air though. So I don't know who will win. But seeing the British crowd, they would go for Up IN the Air no?
