Awhile back we called your attention to a little vote Fox Searchlight was having that allowed you to choose the poster for what looks to be one of my favorite films this year, 500 Days of Summer. Now the votes have been counted and here's the winner for all to see across the world. I'm really glad that one of the designs I liked was chosen. There's tons of pictures of Zooey Deschanel which is always a good start for any poster. And I can't be sure, but there may actually be about 500 pictures of her character Summer on the poster itself, and there don't seem to be any obvious duplicates. Anyway, I can't wait to see this film. If you missed the trailer you can check it out right here.

MSN Movies UK shot up this new poster for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince along with five other single character posters. Each of them are cool in their own right, and would be great lined up one right next to the other. This one is obviously Harry Potter standing in the London Underground with copies of the Daily Prophet blowing in the wind. You can see Lucius Malfoy on that one in the lower left hand corner and another one has a headline about a Death Eater attack targeting Muggles that we've seen evidence of in the previous trailers.

The other posters feature Albus Dumbledore (Michael Gambon)looking ready to kick some ass, Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) looking sly and cute at the same time, Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) decked out in Quidditch garb, Severus Snape (Alan Rickman) looking disappointed like my parents, and Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) looking like a hardcore wizard James Bond.

This is one of my most anticipated films of the summer, and these posters maintain my hype. I wonder when they'll have the poster of Dumbledore kissing a dude, or Hermione at the point in her life when she starts living at Muggle truck stops giving out "favors" for "Fizzing Whizbees."

Here's a new poster for this summer's Star Trek, and it goes to light speed...at least I think so. This could be a pretty butterfly, or an arm with a hammer coming out of its sleeve. It's a cool enough design, but it looks like a Rorschach test, or the Enterprise flying through a bunch of liquid adamantium.

This week, three other posters were released as well. They are all international posters, and the imagery is much cooler than this one. Two of them you can check out here and here. Both of them are similar to other blockbuster "floating head" style posters like this Iron Man poster. The final one is my favorite, and it's reminiscent of the Independence Day poster.

Anyway, it's not the posters that keep getting me excited for the movie. It's the amazing trailers. May 8 can't get here soon enough if only because this will give hardcore nerds a break from furious masturbation for a a couple hours.

After we had the spectacular trailer premiere for Where the Wild Things Are, now comes a look at another film based on yet another beloved book from my childhood, the computer animated film Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

The premise is simple, wacky and allows for plenty of fun. A scientist trying to solve world hunger encounters a problem of global proportions in the town of Chewandswallow, after he invents a machine that causes food to rain from the sky.

The animation style is a bit different then what we're used to seeing, and while the trailer makes the film seem somewhat childish (I know it's based on a kids book, but it can still have quality content) there's a certain charm to it. Combined with the fact that there's sure to be plenty of gags with the different kinds of food falling from the sky (in 3D no less), this looks like a very promising family film.

On top of that the cast is what has my attention. Bill Hader puts to use his commanding voice talents as goofy scientist Flint Lockwood and plays along with the voices of Andy Samberg, Tracy Morgan, Anna Faris, James Caan and even the infamous Mr. T.

You can check out the trailer below, and the recently released poster for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs right here. What do you guys think?

Here's the most recent poster for this summer's Terminator Salvation. Though simple, the imagery is very cool. A human hand grasping the skull of a decapitated Terminator has a very ominous feeling for what looks like an intense war between humans and machines. The last trailer was pretty fantastic, and really sets us up for a different kind of Terminator story, with all the familiar feelings that the first two films gave us (including the now confirmed return of Linda Hamilton for some brief voiceover work as Sarah Connor). Another poster was released not too long ago featuring a menacing Terminator with a chain gun, and torn clothes on its skeleton. Thanks to Internet Movie Poster Awards as always for providing us with our movie poster images.

Here's the first official teaser poster for Spike Jonze's adaptation of the classic children's book of the same name Where the Wild Things Are. All the stills have done nothing but get me childishly excited for this film, and this poster is no exception. They've nailed the look of the wild things, and the visual style is magical without being whimsically exaggerated. Recently some new stills from the film were released and they do not disappoint. If you want to check those out, you can see them over at USA Today. The first trailer for Where the Wild Things Are will be attached to Monsters vs Aliens (which also has the potential to be a good flick) this coming weekend and is said to be quite a long trailer. We'll be sure to post it as soon as its online. In the meantime, are you guys excited for this one?

Here's the new poster for Sony Pictures blockbuster prequel, Angels & Demons, with Tom Hanks reprising his role as symbologist Robert Langdon from the 2005 film The Da Vinci Code. While the poster isn't anything remarkable, it's a little harder to market a movie that doesn't have some sort of clear artifact or plot device to easily illustrate. The Da Vinci Code marketing was easy because of all the iconic pieces of art that could be used, and several more items from the story that lead Langdon from one clue to the next. My personal favorite from The Da Vinci Code marketing was a poster seen only at Las Vegas ShoWest theater exhibition conference that you can see right here. My only wish was that they would have made it so that you could only see the "So dark the con of man" when the poster was under blacklight and it was positioned in the lower right hand corner like it's supposed to be.

As I commented, when the trailer was released awhile back, this looks like it could trump its predecessor. And of course the ole Christian backlash will come sooner or later to ensure that all those who weren't going to see the movie still don't see it, and those planning on the movie may still do so, but with a bit more spite. Enjoy, you blasphemous buffoons!

Just like Captain Planet used to say, "The power is yours!" Film news blog /Film says that Fox Searchlight has asked their readers to take part in deciding which poster will be distributed to market their film 500 Days of Summer (which we premiered the newest trailer for yesterday). But it's not like you have to log into a special website or anything, so as far as I'm concerned Fox Searchlight also asked me, readers of The Screen Rider and everyone else on the Internet to vote for which poster they'd like to see make the cut. My personal favorites are the two with all the little Polaroid pictures of Zooey Deschanel, mainly because I could look at that many pictures of her and never get bored, but also because it looks like there could actually be 500 pictures of her as her character Summer in those posters. If you want to vote, just head on over to Fox Searchlight's voting page, and make your decision. If you're Republican, I'm sorry but there isn't any vote you can make that will ruin the fibers of humanity, but better luck next year! POLITICS WHOA!!

Here's the first poster for this summer's action thriller Public Enemies. From IMDB, "acclaimed filmmaker Michael Mann directs Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillard in the incredible and true story of legendary Depression-era bank robber John Dillinger (Depp), the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of J. Edgar Hoovers fledgling FBI and its top agent, Melvin Purvis (Bale), and a folk hero to much of the downtrodden public. No one could stop Dillinger."

Poster has been said to be reminiscent of one of The Dark Knight poster featuring the Joker but I like to think it's a bit more reminiscent of the Dick Tracy poster seen here, but that's just because I love that poster series.

Trailer is supposed to hit sometime later this week, so as soon as it's released we'll have it up here for your viewing pleasure. Johnny Depp versus Christian Bale is an exciting prospect. Women just want to see them wrestle in creamed corn, while men just want them to kill each other so there's one less celebrity male ruining our libidos. Also I hope that no one got in front of the lights while this was in production. Are you excited for Public Enemies?

Here's another teaser poster for the upcoming summer blockbuster Terminator Salvation. Obviously just the name Terminator is a selling point for the film, so it's no surprise that the poster only mentions lead actors Christian Bale and Sam Worthington by name rather than in photo. However, Yahoo! Movies also released along with this one sheet image a banner image containing not only the above Terminator but also characters John Connor (Bale) and Marcus Wright (Worthington) that you can see here.

While there's some rumblings of concern over the films rating (McG says he's trying to get the R-rating that he and the fans want, but many feel the studio won't let it out without a PG-13 stamp from the MPAA), I'm still looking forward to see how this turns out. We'll see even more when a new trailer premieres this weekend in front of Watchmen.

Here's the uninspiring and plain one sheet for the upcoming April comedy Observe and Report, starring Seth Rogen. While this poster looks lazily slapped together (the picture of Rogen looks like it was part of another worse poster design and just cut and paste into a tattered paper template) I can't stress enough how much I don't want this movie to get lost in the shuffle simply because a far more exhausting and mind-numbing film called Paul Blart: Waste of Time was released beforehand. With an R-Rated MPAA stamp this almost ensures Observe and Report as a higher caliber of comedy. You can check out the trailer we posted a couple weeks ago as well to gauge for yourself.

The teaser poster for Rob Zombie's follow-up to his 2007 franchise reboot Halloween has just hit the nets. It's a pretty basic teaser poster with a creepy, newsprint looking close-up of the signature Michael Myers mask and a title dubbing of H2. I'll admit I'm not a fan of Rob Zombie's films, but for some reason I enjoyed a decent portion of Halloween.

My one complaint about the film should be reason enough for me to hate it, but for some reason I don't. I hated the fact that the origin story of Michael Myers reduced him to a prototypical serial killer who murders because of his terrible childhood. It turns Myers into an emo kid with parental issues rather than keeping the mystery and fear of a character who has no method to his madness. What saved the film for me was it's tone and style in the slasher elements of the film. Myers has a much more threatening presence and his gritty, dirty mask adds to that scary demeanor. All I know is that the original sequel to Halloween is one of the best horror sequels ever made, and this once again has a lot to live up to.

Warner Bros. just released a brand new poster for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth installment in the billion dollar franchise. The imagery is right in line with a lot of the other poster art for the series, but I think that HP6 logo is kind of awkward looking. The HP has been used plenty of times before, but I think it's the number 6 that just looks weird in that font style, probably since numbers have never been seen in that title font before. Anyway, aside from this there are two other posters that were released. One features Harry armed with his wand and the other features Albus Dumbledore looking just as poised for battle. Thanks for Internet Movie Poster Awards for the images.

Here we have the first poster for the Ben Stiller family comedy sequel Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. Not much exciting work here, just a traditional cast line-up slapped on the familiar door archway background from the first Night at the Museum poster art. You can see new cast members like Bill Hader and Hank Azaria, as well as old favorites like Owen Wilson and Steve Coogan. As we've commented before, the film blogger buzz about this film is lackluster, but from the trailer we posted, I'm personally looking forward to this as much as I can to a family comedy. The first one was enjoyable, and the additional cast has only heightened its potential for my enjoyment.

Now we have teaser poster for the forthcoming superhero blockbuster X-Men Origins: Wolverine. While the poster itself is cool, it's not necessarily amazing. It's not really anymore exciting or creative than the fan-made teaser that came out over a year ago. Really I think this is just a re-tread of the teaser poster for X-Men: The Last Stand, but this one shows a little more skin. Anyway, it's a start on the long trail of marketing ahead. If you missed it, check out the trailer we posted a little while back.

Here we have the final poster for Zack Snyder's Watchmen. While the trailers and other posters have all been fantastic, this one seems too conventional to be completely cool. The imagery is good, but when you look at the other posters, this one just doesn't completely measure up. Either way, I'm already sold on seeing this when it comes out March 6.

Here we have one of six new character posters released for this summers attempt at bringing another toy franchise to the big screen. G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra doesn't hit theaters until August 7, but there's already an onslaught of marketing trying to get some hype for the film.

If all Paramount has in its pocket right now are these lame, unnecessarily torso heavy character posters then things aren't looking to promising. While it might've seemed like an interesting idea on paper, why the hell do we need to cut off half their heads? And what's with the faux X-Men/Batman suits and armor? I think it's safe to say many film-goers are going to be saying "No, Joe!" Above is the poster for the character Scarlett. If you'd like to see the other six character posters head on over here but unfortunately they don't get any better. I'd just as soon have Paramount make a film out of these re-edited G.I. Joe cartoons. Is anyone excited or remotely interested in this flick?

After making it's debut at last year's Sundance Film Festival, The Great Buck Howard, is finally making it's way to a theatrical release sometime later this year. I haven't heard anything about this film since it's release and suddenly within the same week, we get an official one sheet and a trailer.

The trailer makes the film look quirky and feels like a melding of the period style of Catch Me If You Can with the pop look of That Thing You Do! John Malkovich is being John Malkovich (you see what I did there?), and this also marks the first time Tom Hanks and his continually rising star son Colin Hanks have been together in a movie (they're even playing father and son respectively). Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think.

Here's the newest one sheet for Pixar's upcoming adventure Up. While there hasn't been much in the way of full on promotion for the film yet, Disney/Pixar have said Up is "a comedy adventure about 78-year-old balloon salesman Carl Fredricksen, who finally fulfills his lifelong dream of a great adventure when he ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies away to the wilds of South America. But he discovers all too late that his biggest nightmare has stowed away on the trip: an overly optimistic 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell."

Pixar is an anomaly among Hollywood for churning out hit after hit, continuing to amaze audiences with their original stories and flawless animation. At first, I wasn't sure what Up had to offer in the way of an interesting story, but this trailer sets us up for a great meeting of two unlikely adventurers in the geriatric Carl Fredricksen and the ambtious boy scout Russell. For those who haven't yet had the pleasure of seeing the trailer for this promising Pixar adventure, we've embedded it below.

Here we have the newest poster for the reboot of the popular horror franchise Friday the 13th. From the trailer (and even the poster) it's clear that this reboot is going to be a much grungier and brutal incarnation of Jason than we have seen previously. Much like Rob Zombie's remake of the Halloween franchise, I think this will be a weaker version of what used to be a great horror film series and will ultimately sacrifice an iconic character for a conventional teen-sex-gore-fest with convenient ready-to-sell packaging. If you haven't seen the trailer, we've embedded it below for your review.
