Fan Made: Sexy 'New Moon' Posters
Filed under: Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fandom, Remakes and Sequels, Posters
For better or for worse, we all know that Twilight fans are a crafty bunch, and frankly it is not like there aren't a million pictures of Edward Cullen floating around the hard-drives of the series' devoted followers, so it shouldn't be that surprising that fans are already hard at work making one-sheets for the upcoming sequel to Twilight, New Moon. Over at Popsugar, two new posters for the sequel have emerged, and while Cinematical has already confirmed with Summit that these are fake, an almost-shirtless Robert Pattinson is bound to get some attention either way. Not to mention that at least these two posters are more convincing than some of the other photoshop jobs out there.The first official teaser poster was revealed during ShoWest, and, well, other than the fact that it looks identical to the banner art we saw back in February, there is really nothing to say. I mean, how can curlicue fonts compete with shirtless glowering? New Moon will pick up with our star-crossed lovers where they left off, and the addition of the new werewolf pack and the badass Volturi means that Chris Weitz and Melissa Rosenberg will have plenty of material to work with. One thing is for sure, I hope Summit has something a little more exciting up their sleeve than what they have shown us so far, because right now it looks like fans are doing a better job of promoting this movie than they are.
Why should we care about fan-made posters? Well, why shouldn't we? After all, the only reason Twilight made it to movie screens in the first place was because of the book's die-hard fans. So while trying to get the final word on anything Twilight is no easy task (what with speculation, rumor, and blatant lies), there is plenty of time to kill before New Moon hits theaters on November 20th, so why not have a little fun first? Check out the two fan-made posters below.

Yes, these are very good, but not real. Check out this site that investigates Rob Pattinson rumors to see who the real Edward "body" in this manip is and how these were made.

If Summit has any business savvy at all, they will choose the Edward poster. That will sell the tickets!! Very hot!

Wow I thought that these two posters were official for the movie. Great job to whoever made them! The one of Bella is really cool capturing the vast emptiness that she is going through and the one of Edward...in a word GAH....the man is GORGOUS!! I LOVE that poster though because to me is captures the torment that is Edward - seconds before he is going to step into "oblivion" I really love these posters...I think Summit should just opt to use them I am sure that the fans that made them wouldn't mind at all!

Why would Summit spend money on posters when the fans are doing such a great job of promoting the movies for FREE!? I'd seen these poster some time ago on YouTube and they are beautifully done. Blessings on the makers!!

Summit should hire these guys to make poster designs, the official teaser poster sucks.
