THE UGLY STEPSISTER

Caught stealing this picture (sorry)! Will convert dog people to the cat person life. That expressive face. The loyalty. What a good loyal fearless boy. Bonus points for going home w/ the director at night. Representing for all the anti-obedience school  pups out there. 'Krypto will return in Supergirl'. Intelligent kind and harmless as long as you don't disrespect this queen. 'Death to all humans' indeed.  The year's breakthrough Body-Horror star. It steals the perverse picture simply by following its nature.  
 

Finalists: It was so hard to choose. Love them all. Like unknowable affecting Hawk in Hamnet, little doomed Googoo (meercat) in Left-Handed Girl, and naughty adorable Panda (dog) in The Love That Remains, and Liza/Elis (janus cat) in The Secret Agent - oh the duality!, 

Semi Finalists: scene stealing hungry Olga (cat) in Sorry Baby, and like the hilariously pompous Sterling (showdog) we don't quite understand what Honey (show dog) sees in Bull in Fixed but for every lock, a key.

Movie Poster of the Year
(click to embiggen for the beauty)

BUGONIA

NO OTHER CHOICE

SINNERS

TRON ARES

THE WEDDING BANQUET

 Bizarre. Perfect. The two toned syrupy glaze is stunning and surreal and blocks out transmissions to the mother ship! Park Chan Wook posters I tell ya. They're always detailed reminders of the brilliant pieces of a  masterful whole.  The "Sugar Shack" poster, is a stunner... transporting you back in time just like that real ring-a-ding-ding night Simple, sure, but stunningly direct. The verticality and color are such a rush... like the first time you saw a light cycle.  A joyfully stitched beauty, like a ceremonial gift to the two couples that make up this found family. 
Runners Up

Finalists: Ballad of a Small Player (drowning dissolving colors... too stylish for his own good),  Weapons (children running like moonlit airplanes), Mickey 17 (with all the Mickeys behind him), The Testament of Ann Lee (mirrored  Seyfried),

Semi Finalists: Good Boy (shadows), Novocaine (pain points), Fantastic Four (white and blue graphic teaser... but they overdid it with so many inferrior subsequent posters) and  Pillion (matching lock and key character posters - so smart)
