I love how the picture of Jesse Eisenberg kind of looks like a mugshot. I also like that the poster is simple and yet very evocative of the tone of the film.
Power to the people! I think this poster both captures the fighting spirit of the film and highlights many of the film's best moments.
I think this poster is great both because it's a beautiful image and because of what the image suggests. The two are running away but they're running down a pier, which has a very defined and certain end. In the film the two fight for more time but, ultimately, come to realize that the end is inevitable. Beautiful and so sad.
I haven't seen The Expendables but I suspect that this is a matter of truth in advertising. I mean, you pretty much know what you're going to get from a movie with a poster like this, right?
One of my favourite parts of Inception is when Ariadne starts playing around with the dreamscape, folding the city over on itself, so I think that's why I like this poster so much because it plays on the same warping of perspective.
I don't know what it is about this poster, exactly, but it makes me laugh every time I see it. I think it's the "What? Oh, just an ordinary night" attitude Steve Carrell and Tina Fey exude.
The intersection of wholesome and creepy.
It's not often in life when you can pinpoint exactly where things went wrong. Just looking at this shot makes me want to yell, "Dude, don't."
A very old school poster for a very old school-style film. Love it.
Black Swan actually has a ton of really cool posters but these two are my favourites. So creepy, so beautiful, so perfect.

I liked all of these posters, but I can't say what my favorite actually was The Social Network, cause Eisenberg's mug throughout the whole film, is what really sells it all.
I haven't seen 127 Hours yet, but that poster is certainly my favorite. I know folks are sick of the blue/orange poster combo, but it works brilliantly here to make that empty hourglass between the rocks.
@MCrok93: Eisenberg's facial expressions (particularly during the lawsuit proceedings) are gold.
@Rachel: Agreed. It's a really striking image.
The Black Swan ones were gorgeous! Also really liked the different ones for Never Let Me Go.
A poster that I really disliked was Little Fockers. Somehow they made DeNiro and Ben Stiller look like they are the same age. So creepy!
