So how many movie posters or DVD covers have you seen or rented where, let's say, you have a pic of an actor taken from the back often with weaponry? You'd be surprised - I bet you've seen 10 or more. How about where the actors are standing back to back? I bet you've seen 15 or more. Check out these movie poster clichés, they're pretty darn cool - I would have never realized.
1. Big heads in the sky over tiny people on a beach
2. From the back (often with weaponry)
3. Big text on faces
4. Back to back
5. In bed
6. Through the legs
7. Big eye
8. Blue
9. Running for their lives
10. Cute Red Dress

What no Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope?? Luke and Leia are standing pretty much back to back. Leia has a blaster pistol, and Luke is holding his father's Lightsaber!! That is unless a Lightsaber isn't considered a weapon??
hmmm. i just looked at the Star Wars IV movie poster and dvd covers and they don't look like they're back to back. I do see one close enough, but not really.
Maybe my memories bad, but I thought they were on the original movie poster. It's time to get my Star Wars Sourcebooks out! lol
Faces on a beach = romantic drama
From the back = action
Text on faces = drama with some action
Back to back = romantic comedy
In bed = comedy
Legs = Sex comedy
Big eye = mostly horror
Blue = foreign animal documentary
Running = thriller
Red dress = everything else
