This game is like the thread "Post the album cover of your most favorite band/artist", except for movie buffs.
Like said thread: All images posted must be of a reasonable size (no bandwidth bombing), and you can only post one poster per day,

Guess I'll start.

LoTR: The Return of the King was an incredible film, I'm not sure if I am remembering correctly... but didn't that film actually get Oscars?

As for one of my favorite films...

Batman: Under the Red Hood is my favorite Batman animated film ever produced, if you're a fan of Batman then this film is highly recommended.

IMDB says that it got 11 Oscars, along with several other wins and nominations:

Also, I fixed your image, Earthshine. It wasn't working for some reason.

Thanks for fixing the image. Strange, we've been having a lot of image problems lately. It seemed fine on my end.

The third installment of LoTR definitely deserved those Oscars and really showed the world that fantasy was a serious genre worthy of such praise.

Vampire Circus - Robert Young

Without a doubt one of the most underrated Hammer horror films. Heck, one of the more underrated horror films in general.

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods

Saw this during the limited US showing back in August and loved it. Nothing like packing a hundred DBZ fans into one theater and watching a DBZ movie together.

This movie is such a gong show, but I can't help but adore it. The soundtrack is fantastic, the animation is pretty great for a small Canadian studio, and its main character is a shockingly well-portrayed female character, considering the era this was made in and how over-the-top the movie can be.

Would I kiss Mok? Yes. Would I also immediately after dip my face in a bucket of hand sanitizer? Yes.

The Trial - Orson Welles

An interesting film by Orson Welles. I haven't read the original story by Kafka, so I can't really say how accurate this film is to the novel. Still a good work though. It's essentially horror without all of the horror staples.
