IMP Awards is running a survey for their readers choose their favorite comedy movie posters for 2018. My vote would go to Holmes. Now keep in mind I am not saying that was my favorite comedy, but I do like the poster.

If you’re not following Sylvester Stallone’s Instagram, you should. Sly posts several updates a week and his most recent was the photo above with this…
Every few days until the MOVIE comes out I’m going to post images from the upcoming RAMBO . See if you can follow along with the story using your imagination. All of the images that I post will be in black-and-white, but the film will be in dramatic color… #rambo5
I am more psyched for Rambo 5 than any of the other previous Rambo films. Not because I will think it will be the best, but because I know how good it will be. Can’t wait for Sly to amaze us all once again.

I’m a huge fan of Victor Santos’ Polar graphic novels so you can imagine how much I’ve been looking forward to the movie adaptation of Polar. Today we get the poster and trailer and I love ’em both. I hope you do as well.

Regular readers probably remember seeing the John Wick & Jack Carter piece that John Beatty created and gifted to me back in November. After he was finished John decided it would look better with a gray wash and created / added to the piece as you can see above. You can see it even better and bigger if you click on the image.
I’ve attached the U-Stream of John adding the tones below. You can check out all of John’s live drawing recordings here.

I always enjoy seeing what JoBlo has found because with each post they list the artist’s name and a link to more of his/her art. That’s where I saw this Rambo poster by Branden Hafiz.
