PICTURE ROUND-UP: New posters for Jurassic Park 3D, Oblivion and the Drew Struzan documentary The Man Behind The Poster

February 15th, 2013 by Marc Comments

This week’s picture round-up is a pretty quiet affair…

Movie posters, first up is the new poster for the upcoming Jurassic Park 3D which we love, it recreates the scene from the movie and reminds us how awesome the 3D could be on a movie like this…

Next up, a sombre looking Tom Cruise in the poster for his upcoming post-end of the world thriller Oblivion:


Finally, Drew Struzan, the artist behind many of FTN’s favourite posters – check out his work here – is getting a documentary of his work and the poster has just be revealed. Designed by his son, we just aren’t feeling it given the subject matter, but man, we cannot wait to see the doc.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
