Analysing Movie Posters

Kick Ass

The teenager - main character in this movie is represented in a stereotypical way as he is holding a weapon; appearing as if he was fighting. That's why the poster is designed in such way that it embraces violence rather than becoming a superhero. This is because most teenager enjoy watching movies with a violent content.The poster also includes other characters from the movie,which are perfectly portrayed by the clothes they are wearing. The main character in the green - symbolizes energy and balance, learning and growth as he is trying to become a superhero and save lives, Hit girl wearing purple which can be explained as the colour of royalty and power as she is illustrated as the strongest figure. Furthermore there are two more characters : Big Daddy  in black that symbolizes death and red that stands for danger as the character Red Mist betrays Kick Ass .  The layout of this poster is very successful as the background contrasts with the title which contrasts with the characters, and that way everything is seen clearly.

American Pie

This is a typical teenage movie about male friends who have a very high interest in sexual activities during the spring break, which is the main stereotype in this movie. However, there is also one counter type- which is one of the boys. This is because he already has a girlfriend and does not behave like his other three friends.
