If you love movies and are also into gaming, boy, do we have a treat for you! Artist and content creator Ronaldo Spettacolare shared these Nintendo/movie mashup posters on Instagram and Imgur, and we've gotta say that even someone who isn't into Mario and friends can appreciate these babies. We've put 'em all up here, but you can enjoy more of his work on Instagram.

We know that big movie studios stick to classic money making formulas, and that can lead to bland, predictable movies. But it looks like it's way worse when it comes to advertising for those movies. Tumblr has a thing for analyzing movies, like this hyper analysis of Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean. Here's a tumblr user who ranked the marvel movies based on how many trains were in them, and here's tumblr's dicussion of the visual affects of Jurassic Park.
Thanks to Twitter user, @Retr0Joe, for bringing African movie posters into the spotlight -- we can comfortable say this is the best thing we've seen all day.
The artist behind these magnificent artworks is Daniel Anum Jasper. D.A. Jasper has been a pioneer of Ghana movie poster painting since the 1980s. You can see more of his work on Instagram!
What an amazing day to be alive.
We've seen some funky movie posters from the Soviet Union and Poland, but Twitter user @Retr0Joe managed to completely overshadow both with his thread of hand painted African movie posters. Apparently, due to licensing issues, some African movie theaters would hire artists to paint the promotional posters for their theaters. Most of these artists were completely ignorant of the film plots, so they'd have to fake it. And apparently that means a lot more guns, a lot more violence, and unexpected cameos from Michael Jackson. And if these aren't enough for you, there are tons more to be found in the thread.

This Monday the Twitter account for Aquaman tweeted a photo of the film's poster to promote its December 21st release. Unfortunately for the well-meaning but ever-faltering DC Universe, it was immediately mocked on Twitter. The designers definitely made it easy. The poster features Jason Momoa surrounded by sharks ripped straight from the Getty Images gallery - and people immediately likened it to the posters for movies like Finding Nemo. Before long, it was getting the full Photoshop meme treatment. And we're definitely here for it. Better luck next time, DCEU.
2018 was a damn good year for movies. There was The Favourite, zany fish-eyed English Baroque rollercoaster from Yorgos Lanthimos. Roma, a poignant love letter to Mexico City, managed to steal hearts internationally. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper inexplicably paired up for what ended up being our favorite iteration of A Star Is Born yet. Despite our immense love for these acclaimed films, we also enjoy making fun of sh*t. And The Shiznit happens to do that very well.
Every year the entertainment site posts "honest posters" for Oscar nominees. They're beautifully done and funny to boot. We've included some of this year's posters and some all-time favorites. If you like what you see, check out the rest here and consider donating to theirPatreon.
