Similarities among Hollywood movie posters is no longer news. Maybe because there are a lot of movies produced in Holywood that people run out of creative ideas to make the poster striking as much as it is unique. In fact, similarities in posters are no longer limited with the Holywood silver screen. There are other countries that released similar (sometimes identical) movie posters.
But have you seen Pinoy movie posters resembling Hollywood’s or even other international posters?
Here are some:
Don’t Cry Mommy vs Hustisya Movie Poster
Manila Kingpin Vs Lawless
Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang Vs Twilight
A Prophet Vs OTJ
Miss No Good vs Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo
Grace Land Vs Batman Begins
The Witness Vs Baseline Killer
Unofficially Yours Vs Petty Romance
My Lady Boss Vs Pretty Woman
Yanggaw Vs Ghost Bride
One More Try Vs Brooklyn’s Finest
10000 Hours Vs Public Enemies
Baler Vs A Walk to Remember
One Night Only Vs Sex and the City
Temptation Island Vs Planet Terror
Marley and Me Vs When I Met U
Guni-guni Vs Alone
Amorosa Vs Excision
Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala Vs Gone
Overtime Vs In Time
In all fairness to Pinoy creativity, sometimes, we come up with the idea before Hollywood does:
Batanes Vs The Last Song
Jologs Vs X-Men
Tribu Vs The Lone Ranger
What can you say about these posters? Inspiration or imitation?
The photo compared to Manila Kingpin is actually the 2012 film ‘Lawless’.
The posters for “The Legal Wife” and “A Walk to Remember” posted in this article are UNOFFICIAL. However, “Baler”‘s poster has some similarity of that of “A Walk to Remember.”
