Awesome 20th Century Fox 75th Anniversary Posters

20th Century Fox is celebrating its 75th anniversary and published some beyond-cool altered logo posters using some of their most classic movies. The studio is showing off the beautiful work on the front page of its anniversary website and it jumps out at you with stunning color.

The movies honored include: Walk The Line, The Day The Earth Stood Still, Ice Age, Patton, Independence Day, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and Alien.

Wow. Very nice. I loved the Alien one with the egg. That is an egg, right?

Yes.




The idea is OK, but I think the execution is terrible. If I liked those movies why would I select bastardized versions of the posters when I could have the real things? And Walk the Line? Really? That's one of the handful of great accomplishments from the Studio they're choosing to highlight? 'Kay.

Right. Here's the original poster.



Damn broken-down computer.... Hiya, Pike!

But I don't remember an egg in the movie. All I remember is Sigourney Weaver being all tough and cool and the alien thing coming out of some guy's stomach.

I admit, I haven't seen it in a while.

I also want to add that I don't like the idea of using Walk the Line as "75 years of rebels." THey couldn't come up with something better?

The egg is down under the planet in that huge "egg chamber", one of the most-spectacular scenes in the flick. It's from this egg that scary thing jumped out at John Hurt's character and stuck a yucky thing down his throat, basically impregnating him.

Here, from about :35 to :45 and a split-second at about 1:20.

And I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn Lucas wouldn't let them do Star Wars, but it seems like a gaping and obvious omission. Slightly important to the Studio, no?

Oh, I remember now!

You guys are so great.

Yea, I was wondering about some of their choices. This is one.

I was thinking the same thing. "Where is Star Wars"

The posters look great! But yeah, I agree, I defs thought Star Wars would get a mention!

Like the rest of you, I looked at these and thought, "Walk The Line?" though I also thought, "Ice Age? Independence Day? Really?" I don't like the Patton one either, but at least that film won a load of Oscars.

fox really rocks my movie world!
Don't they have the most movie created?

Fairplay they are some real nice posters but the only one that looks out of place is the Ice Age one.

Walk the Line is a great poster though. I think (hope) that is how they made their decision.
