And not even the most insane - there were two of these in the lot amongst 300+ others posters (inc. original Jaws, Alien, Exorcist, to name a few)

Almost forgot this was in the poster collection Katie inherited recently - Struzan's sublime UK quad poster for FIRST BLOOD. I knew this one was a keeper the moment I unfolded it, just an absolutely beautiful rendition of Stallone (in arguably his greatest performance)

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

RIP a true legend. Even if you didn't know him by name, you definitely knew his work. I had a small foldout poster of his PAN'S LABYRINTH piece in my teenage room for years and always lost myself in the folds of Ophelia's dress and the faun's gnarled horns.

Has a 'first appears' footnote but no creator credit?

Nate already got me on Terminator, but much appreciate the shout-out man!

Was great to see this on the big screen for the first time, and a lush 4K restoration to boot.

KT 🛸 @noellenorthstar.bsky.social · 3d

On a side note I caught Perfect Blue in cinema yesterday night with @eoinmarron.bsky.social. It was my first time watching the Satishi Kon film. Without a doubt possibly the tightest script I’ve ever seen and I mean that as the highest compliment.

Worth bringing up again, but the Image Ent. collectors ed. boxsets (referenced in that article) are invaluable resources with Oshii's complete boards for both films fully translated as well as an exhaustive 'making of' book, neither of which have been reprinted since!

Great piece on - for what my money's worth - is one of the finest sequences in all of animation (probably even trumping the city montage from GITS, too)

Animation Obsessive @ani-obsessive.bsky.social · 1d

Mamoru Oshii planned it. A young Satoshi Kon took the lead on its layouts. The result: a stunning moment from Patlabor 2.

We're looking inside the film's martial law sequence, including storyboards and production art:

Finished fanart of Donnie from TMNT! Never drawn any of the turtles before, so I went with my fave of the gang in a typical NYC backdrop.
