    Oscars 2016: Honest Movie Posters

    Mary Anne ButlerBy

    It’s mid January, and that means one thing for the realm of film: nominations for the Oscars.  This year, the field holds some real surprises for Best Picture as well as some “of COURSE that one got a nod” tried and true thematic mainstays.  If you missed the list of 8 motion pictures up for the Best Picture statue, you can read the list here, and the entire list of nominations in the various categories here.

    Anyhow, one of my personal favorite Twitter accounts to follow, One Perfect Shot, posted this fabulous list of “Honest Movie Posters” of the 8 nominated films:

    BIGSHOT
    BRIDGE
    IMMGH
    FRITZ
    REV
    MARTIAN
    ONELONGCARCHASE

    (The Big Short was also nominated, but TheShiznit didn’t make one of these posters for it.)

    We also have to include these films, which while they aren’t “Best Picture” nominees, all have nominations in other categories:

    SICARIO2
    OUT JOY GRATEFULMATES CAROL ANISH BRIDGE

    STEVEJOBSEXMACHINA

    The 2016 Oscars awards show takes place on February 28th, 2016.
