Heads Up: Laurent Durieux's "Jaws" and Mike Mitchell's "E.T." Movie Posters

It's barely 2013 and Mondo has already released the screen printed Kraken. Can you believe Thursday's Jaws and E.T. prints will mark the second and third Spielberg movies posterized by the Austin-based boutique in as many weeks into the new year? And it's making quite the impression if one's to look at, oh, practically any movie blog on the Internet.

Jaws Movie Poster
Laurent Durieux
24" x 36" (Screen Print) - Numbered
$60 - Limited to 525

Laurent's Jaws design makes for one classy poster and happens to be the perfect ambassador for the taut, restrained direction and storytelling which made Spielberg's shark story so terrifying. The bright colors and cheerful composition, like a happy snapshot before a gruesome murder, are much more unnerving than any grisly crime scene could ever be. Mondo's Jaws poster will be available through their website at a random time on Thursday (1/17) for $60. The print is limited to an edition of 525 and measures 24" x 36". For more info on the artist, check out Durieux's Flickr account.

E.T. Movie Poster
Mike Mitchell
36" x 24" (Screen Print) - Numbered
$45 - Limited to 475

On the opposite end of the creepy spectrum, we have Mike Mitchell's sunny E.T. print. You know when it's really hot (like scorchingly so) and your exhausted to the point that passing out and being pecked at by vultures is becoming alarmingly likely? You know what I'm talking about. And then suddenly your three best buds appear with four ice cream cones. "Why four," you ask? Because one of those cones is for you! Fist bumps all around. That's kind of how I feel about this print: good in a fuzzy sort of way. The E.T. poster will also be sold through Mondo on Thursday (1/17) at a random time. The screen print measures 36" x 24" and is limited to an edition of 475. Head over to sirmikeofmitchell.com and follow @sirmitchell on Twitter for more Mike Mitchell-related news.

Mike Mitchell's "Adventure Time" Posters

I've been a huge fan of Adventure Time since day one. Now, I'm not saying that to brag, rather, I'm hoping you'll use my admission as a catalyst to watch as much of the series as you possibly can. It's really amazing. And it seems I'm not the only one who thinks so, as Mondo will be releasing a stunning set of Adventure Time prints by artist Mike Mitchell later today (11/25).

Adventure Time Poster (Regular)
Mike Mitchell
18" x 36" - Numbered
$40 - Limited to 220

Mike Mitchell absolutely nailed the look and feel of the series. His posters present Jake the dog and Finn the human in exactly the way you would have imagined. He's even seen fit to add some of the show's hilarious side characters, like Lumpy Space Princess, the staring horse (which is actually a costume housing the Ice King), and Beemo! By the way, if that previous sentence made zero sense, I, again, highly recommend checking out the series. I'm not really sure what else to say. I love this print, it's pretty much perfect, and I can't imagine any fans of the show being disappointed by it. I think I prefer the variant, if only because it's a bit more colorful, and Adventure Time is such a colorful show, but the regular version is still fairly algebraic in every conceivable way. Bottom line: if you love the series, you'll need to be putting that F5 button to work come sale time.

Adventure Time Poster (Variant)
Mike Mitchell
18" x 36" - Numbered
$65 - Limited to 90

Mike Mitchell's Adventure Time prints will be available later today (11/25) through the Mondo website. Both versions of the poster measures 18" x 36" and are hand numbered. The regular edition will cost $40 and is limited to 220, while the variant is limited to a much smaller edition of 90 and will cost $65. As is usually the case when it comes to Mondo prints, you'll need to follow @MondoNews for the exact drop details. To learn more about Mike Mitchell you've got a few options, including: his website at sirmikeofmitchell.com, his store, his Tumblr blog, and following him on Twitter @sirmitchell.

PaleyFest Posters Curated by Gallery 1988 Part 2

As promised, here are a few more of the beautiful PaleyFest posters.

Parks & Recreation - Mike Mitchell

Does this poster remind you of anything? If you rudely shouted out, "Casablanca!" Without raising your hand, you're right. Well done Mr. Manners. Mike Mitchell, an artist whose poster work I've proudly hung on my wall before, was tasked with creating an image honoring one of the best television comedies on air right now, Parks & Recreation, and has surpassed even my highest expectations. I love, love, love that he decided to place Nick Offerman's Ron Swanson (easily the best character on the show) in the forefront. It's a tie between Danger's The Walking Dead and Mitchell's Parks & Recreation, but this poster is definitely in my top two of the bunch. The poster will be available for purchase on site at PaleyFest tomorrow (3/9) and the remaining stock will be available through Gallery 1988's site. Head over to Mike Mitchell's website and store to be amazed.

Eastbound & Down - Derek Deal

I had never heard of Derek Deal until today, but after looking at his site and perusing his store, I'm the better for it (check out his Wilhelm Scream gig posters)! Derek pays tribute to what is without a doubt, one of the craziest, most in-your-face, badass, selfish assholes around - Kenny Powers. I haven't caught the second season of this show yet, but I do own the first season and play it whenever I want to laugh or am feeling particularly mean spirited (this show is mean - that's one of the reasons I love it). This poster pretty much says it all, it's loud (green and yellow), it's made to look like a baseball card and it's literally flipping the bird at the viewer - perfection, thy name is this poster. Again, make sure to check out Derek's site and store for some great artwork, and be sure to regularly visit the G1988 blog for online release details. This poster will be sold at PaleyFest on Thursday (3/10) and whatever is left will be sold through Gallery 1988.

Freaks and Geeks / Undeclared - Phantom City Creative

I feel like it was just yesterday that Phantom City Creative was a brand spanking new design studio and now they're all over the place! First, my congrats go to Phantom City Creative for putting out some of the coolest and prettiest poster designs in recent memory. And second, my congrats (again) go out to Phantom City Creative for doing an amazing job on this Freaks & Geeks / Undeclared poster. I really like how the artist tinted this image with green and yellow, it reminds me of an old photograph that's lost some color with age or sun damage, but is far from forgotten. Be sure to check out the Phantom City Creative website, as well as their Etsy store. By the way, have you seen what they've done for Twitch? It's fairly awesome! This poster will be available at PaleyFest on Saturday (3/12) and will probably be on sale the following day at Gallery 1988's store.

That's all folks. When the Glee poster is unveiled, depending on if anything else big is hitting that day, I may or may not do a part 3. Have a great night!
