Nostalgia Critic Pays Tribute To Struzan

I was going to be writing an article on how movie posters are a dying art form, but for now I'd like to direct you to a Drew Struzan tribute video that The Nostalgia Critic did. This video, more then any written words, can explain why hand painted posters are more visually stunning then photoshopped posters. Maybe if videos like this circulate enough the art of posters could come back. In fact, if the Academy wants to bring the art of posters back they should create a new award: Best Poster. Probably not going to happen, but I can dream right?
