The Auteurs' Fake Criterion Covers
My take on Lav Diaz’s A Century of Birthing
Boy, what a pity this thread died.
@RJ JADASNEEZ
Your Naked Lunch cover is beautiful.
@KALOY
Your link isn’t working right, but when I opened it in a new tab I got to see that it was quite lovely.
Just realized how dead this thread was, will be contributing again tonight.
well, in the spirit of reanimating this dead thread, i worked this up. don’t know how solid it is, but i figure you guys will let me know. the shading on the bottom is a little wonky, but i did do this pretty damn quickly
No—it’s good. I miss this thread.
and one more before bed
@DJ, it’s really good, but the cars in Cars don’t have drivers (??!?!?!)
Pixar were the drivers. It’s meta.
Well I never was meta enough. Your Aliens one on the last page is ace DJ.
Put it together pretty quick, feeling a bit rusty so I know its not great. Might do one or two more tomorrow, I’m gonna be off all day anyway.

has anyone noticed the awesome covers to some of OLIVE FILM’S Paramount releases?
I quite like those
Great job DJ on the Pixar’s Cars cover. I too have been out of touch with this thread. I made two new covers out of boredom over the weekend. Here it is. Hope Criterion has the sense to pursue these two films…
Hopefully I’ll do more when I find the time…
why the hell is this not already released? made this up quick but think it looks decent.
It has been a long time since I’ve posted here.
I’ve had some free time lately and made these up for myself. I thought I would share them. They were print size but photobucket doesn’t share well.
Here is a link to my Photobucket where the print sizes can be downloaded just in case anyone was interested.

Colonel Haki, way to bring back this thread. Amazing covers!
@ Colonel Haki
All three are incredible, but that “Beat the Devil” is stunning. I’ll be printing it for my junky bargain bin copy. Thank you!
Enjoy. :)

@Colonel Haki great stuff man, really digging it.
Here’s my take on the 1990 documentary on the drag ball culture “Paris is Burning”, very simple, image is taken from one of the original posters for the doc.

Was bored on set and decided to swing back through here.
DJ: I really like the Aliens cover. It feels more like Ultimate-super-extravagant-repackaged-edition tan criterion. However, I’d love to see a see through slip cover (like Fear & Loathing) that adds a red warning light to the image.
RJ: The Naked Lunch cover is simply gorgeous, I’d almost be tempted to do a full Cronenberg series with a similar style. Although, I don’t think it fits the same tone as the film.
@Katja: The Laputa cover is amazing. I’d like to see a full poster of it extended even further vertically. I think it’d add more scope to image.
