I re-watched Lebowski for billionth time over the weekend. I find it therapeutic.

Anyway, it inspired me.

It would be lovely if every uploader would try to stick to the size of the layout that was posted a few pages back (800xsomething), those small covers just look a bit pixelated. :)

A corollary to the Lebowski covers.

Nice job on the Lebowski covers, JL21. I would commend your work as being strongly vaginal, but that might bother some men . . . The word itself. Vagina.

Back in town after a long departure and must comment on that delicious looking cover for The Shining back on 131. Great work!

Does anyone know what font is used on the spines for “THE CRITERION COLLECTION”. Much thanks.

Either I don’t remember specifics of the film very well, or that “Seventh Continent” cover is hilarious. I’m not sure which one is true.

Well, my computer hard drive completely crashed the other day, and I don’t see a time in the near future when I’ll be able to get it fixed. Now I’m stuck on a computer that hasn’t enough space to support even the barest of Photoshop programs. The good news: I had previously saved to Photo Bucket all the unposted covers that I had been working on. The bad news: I was working on covers that would comprise my Top Ten Films of the Aughts, but had only completed four of the ten covers. So, here are the last few covers I had finished.

The first is a cover I had started during the Greatest Films Never Made challenge, that I never got around to finishing until this past weekend. A cover for the doomed Rendezvous with Rama project that David Fincher was to have made.

The last four, in no particular order other than the year they came out, are of the top ten project I was working on.

Hopefully I can soon get something going with another computer, but these will probably be my last covers for a while.

J.R.: Ditto.

That being said, I think the Eurotrip one’s pretty clever. :D Also, both of the Blow-Up covers are awesome.
