What is the most poorly designed movie poster of all time?

 Brace yourselves this is gonna be huge. DVD covers will be included as well.

So to start off we have

Jurassic World.

The original Jurassic Park had a very iconic poster.

This poster works because it keeps the dinosaurs look a mystery and may make you wonder what exactly this movie is about. Is it about a excavation, the creation of dinosaurs, or a thriller. While Jurassic World is a good movie, there is a very slight problem with the poster. The first poster was great and looked like this.

Then we got this one which was used for the blu-ray as well.

It is too blurry, none of the other actors are listed which the final poster should do, and it shows some of the dinosaurs, which may ruin the surprise for some young fans.

Next up we have

Spider-Man Homecoming

I loved the new Spider-Man movie, but I did not love the poster.

This is terrible because of Iron Man taking up much of the space despite not having much screen time in the movie, Aunt May being unusually happy while everyone else is serious, and poor Vulture being shoved up into a side. You know they messed up when a meme version is better.

Next up we have

National Lampoon’s Vacation

I love the original poster, it makes this hilarious comedy look like a epic pulp journey through America with Clark Griswold.

Here is the lame-ass DVD cover.

Even Chevy Chase looks like, “Yeah this cover sucks.”

Finally we have

Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla

I’ve always loved Godzilla since I was a kid and you could imagine my surprise when I saw this beauty in a comic book shop.

Hand-drawn (maybe I’m not sure), vibrant colors, and just enough destruction to make any monster fans want to see this movie. It even makes SpaceGodzilla look even more threatening than he usually is.

This is the English DVD and VHS cover.

Photo shopped images, Little Godzilla looking like a toy, and just lame compared to the other one.
