Moves, or maybe just movie jackets
Moves, or maybe just movie jackets

Airplane: I can't imagine what the passengers were
thinking when they saw the cockpit of their 737 flying back at them and
twisting around the hull of the plane. The logo itself is mildly
reminiscent of Microsoft's WordArt - the kind of thing I used to put on my
school papers back in middle school. Originality: A |
|
 |
Blazing Saddles: Quite possibly one of the best
movies in existence, but that's not an issue here. Mel Brooks in a
Native American headdress in front of cowboy-clad Cleavon Little on a
bucking stallion - it just screams hilarity. As for the logo, WordArt
again, but maybe its WordArt that's ripping things off. Originality: B |
|
 |
High Anxiety: One word, Vertigo. Granted, there
is no outline of a woman falling with him, but it defiantly could have been
better done. The title itself reminds me of Beetlejuice in its
unaligned yellowness. The designers for Brooks have certainly had
better days. Originality: F |

 |
History of the World: Part I nonetheless. Mel
Brooks again, this time in a plumed Roman cavalier helm. The History
of the World logo sits atop a column and is both ominous and eye-catching.
Hurrah! Originality: A Overall: A |

Labyrinth: If the movie isn't shitty enough already,
the cover just tops it off. There is way too much going on here,
random tiles containing various Muppets, a girl, and *cough* David Bowie.
If they hadn't included David Bowie in the cover itself, the movie sales
could have probably doubled, and it wouldn't be getting an F here. So
here it is... Originality: C |

Robin Hood - Men in Tights: Just how does one shoot
six arrows at a time? I certainly don't know, but ask Cary Elwes, i'm
sure he'll tell you. The title is good. The medieval banner
around "Men in Tights" is a clever reminder of the days of...well...Robin
Hood. Originality: A |
|
 |
Young Frankenstein: Screaming disembodied heads
floating atop a dark and scary house, what more can you ask for? The
stone etched logo is the kind of thing that will replace Mt. Rushmore when
the French take over. Originality: B |
