Both of these films fit to almost all of the conventions I listed for a film poster. One notable exception to this was the release date was not present. I think this may be because the posters I found where post-release of the films and as such the release date was most likely removed from the posters.
excellent choices and well annotated - next please add some notes on what techniques you intend to emulate and which conventions you may challenge.
