Five International Star Trek Posters, One Theme: Snore

Lately Star Trek has been rocking our world with all sorts of awesome — including a very intense TV spot last week — but these new international posters are well, bad — save for the one in which the Golden Gate bridge is about to be pummeled by an energy beam. They feature the same one or two images just photoshopped together differently, with different languages laid over them, again, save for the one at the bottom (which is awesome). One could call it lazy marketing, but then again we aren’t talking about 5 domestic posters here, these are going to be released in different countries — namely the U.K., Germany, Australia and Italy respectively.

Have a look at the new posters below — U.K. version courtesy of Empire, others courtesy of ScreenWeek. Despite these obvious marketing follies, the film will likely rock when it hits theaters on May 8, 2009.

  • The one with the faces in a row remind me of IRON MAN promo poster from last year.
  • Tenika
    Haha. These posters are bad.
  • Ryan
    First and 2nd aren't bad. Could use more originality though. I have a contact in a movie theater. I buy stuff off the manager. Let's se if these are what hit in USA
  • In the voice of Don LaFontaine:

    On May 8, Star Trek.

    On May 21, Terminator: Salvation.

    This summer... the future begins.

    All.
    Over.
    Your.
    ASS.
  • Meh. The "awesome" one is not even that awesome. It doesn't look like a Star Trek poster. More like Cloverfield 2: Chompy Goes to San Francisco. I was going to call it Cloverfield 2: Chompy Goes Gay (because he's in San Francisco and I'm actually 12), but thought that was insensitive. Wait does me saying I was going to do it but telling you what it was, is that also insensitive? Gah, being politically correct is so hard!
  • Dr.Bedlam
    That last one looks like a poster they would use for a disaster movie.......
    maybe something like Attack of the Giant Ray From Outer Space....
  • D Train
    MOBILE FSR?!?!?

    I'm back b****es!
