Max Payne Movie Posters

Two new one-sheets for the adaptation of Rockstar Games Max Payne have popped up at Dark Horizons. When the film’s trailer hit a few weeks ago, hardcore fans of the game shot poison-tipped arrows at the curious presence of nappy angel-looking entities. The spiffier poster after the jump will probably draw a similar response: Max Payne vs Jeepers Creepers, ftw. Meanwhile, the spiffier poster on the right has subtle shades of Sin City, evokes the video game box art, and also reminds me of the NYC street art of WK Interact (check it out).

Discuss: A PG-13 Max Payne. Will this be the choice action flick of the fall, or will it be the R-rated Punisher: War Zone? Or, neither? Also, Angels in the Outfield.

  • Hmm..... Lets rip off Banksy! ..... but let's add insult to injury, Make it a real slap in the face and have it go against everything his work stands for.

    Brilliant.

    Banksy stands for: getting laid and paid by trustfund yuppies and causing "confusion" on Facebook. That is all.

    The wall poster is an homage to the cover of the first Max Payne game.

    I'll just....flap my arms if i see them..you know...flap, like an angel's wings!

    *cue crazy christopher lloyd antics*
  • I do like the poster the one with the angel wings is amazing,
  • Hunter you ignorant slut...

    Banksy is an artist... Faulting him for occasionally getting paid for his work is as laughable as you getting paid to blog.

    banksy may be an artist but he didnt invent stencil graffiti. he certainly made it popular but i would argue that the max payne poster your referring to doesnt rip banksy because there is no ironic message therein. visually it looks similar but conceptually its totally different.

    I love the first one, clearly a homage to the original.
  • lol... I'm just fucking around.

    TBH... I don't even know who Banksy is, I googled stencil art and thats the first name that came up. I'm bored, a little drunk and my pizza hasnt shown up yet.

    ^ Not true... except for the part about pizza.... and by Pizza I mean prostitute.

    Banksy is a clown. oh man, cops making out. what a genius. give me a break, you people act like he's the first graffiti artist or something. no.
  • Mydnyte
    You're jealous you can't cause controversy the way he does

    I actually wasn't so excited either, since I've seen the original, but I have to say, it's really good. Ranks up to the original. Just saw it tonight. And I'm actually glad I didn't have to see a lot of faces I've seen all the time. That's just me though
