I hate this poster, I really do! Nothing about this says “Must watch” or “Check it out” or even “Sci-fi adventure” all it screams is “TURD”. I remember when this film came out and I saw that poster and I laughed, thinking how incredibly shit it looked. Then my friend said “Oh but it’s the movie to an awesome game, we have to watch it!” so we sat down and watched it. Within 20 minutes I was so bored out of my mind I fell asleep. Wing Commander is all bad, film and poster *vomit*
We never got into the games much. Perhaps that explains why we can enjoy (the less silly parts) of the movie.
This poster is… underwhelming. We put the “B Poster” at the top of our take. It is better. More exciting.
13 years later we just decided to post on the movie. Here is our take with lots of pics and perhaps a little wit if you are interested:
