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.

What is the best designed wall in history?

 In my opinion, the best-designed walls are those found in Peru, specifically in Cuzco and Machu Picchu. The Inca Empire has been known for constructing one of the most solid and resistant walls in history.

The Inca civilization is well known for its advanced masonry work, much of which can still be seen today in Machu Picchu and Cuzco in Peru. Their large dry stone walls display huge blocks that had been carefully cut to fit together tightly without mortar and with levels of precision unmatched anywhere else in the world.

The stones are so closely spaced that a single piece of paper will not fit between many of the stones.

This precision, combined with the rounded corners of the blocks, the variety of their interlocking shapes, and the way the walls lean inward have puzzled scientists for decades. The method used to match precisely the shape of a stone with the adjacent stones is still unknown.

This wall in Cuzco shows the perfect shape of a puma. On the right, you can see me smiling at the camera.
