Nowadays, movie posters just aren't this 'verbal' anymore. People making movie posters these days try to bring forth their message with just a single line of text, aiming more to grab their viewers attention with strong imagery. And honestly, who has the time to read a long text on a movie poster anymore? Well, I still think it's a shame, because "They're Taking Trains... They're Taking Banks... And They're Taking One Piece Of Baggage!" clearly makes you wonder what that baggage is that they are taking (hint: it's not the bike). Then of course there's that great image next to the text, which only adds to the power this poster has. Plus, I have a thing for these vertically oriented posters, although, obviously, they are more difficult to fit on your door when you want to brighten it up with some movie history...
