This design looks so cheap to me, it's just a bunch of random covers, there is no information about the movies presented in any way, the covers are way too big and take up an inordinate amount of space and there is nothing breaking up sections, design is just so fucking dumb now, fuck mobile

What difference are you seeing that I'm not?

I think the main complaint is that your examples show detail about the movie, not just a close up of someone's face

For example jaws has a giant shark attacking a person. Compare that to a close up of Bane's face. You might not even realize it's a batman movie of you aren't familiar with it already.

Star wars poster shows space ships and laser sword.

Many movie posters are just the main characters now with head shots vs trying to tell a story.

I don't full agree with the op, just my interpretation of what I think they are complaining about

I thought it was about the website design as opposed to the posters. Like why dont you get a small infobox for every movie with name, runtime, age-rating, plotsummary... Instead its just the posters

Yes you are correct it's mainly about the web site design, but the posters deserve their own post

But words make people read and reading is one of videos competitors.

What we really need is an app that uses the Ghanaian movie posters.

I can see it now that you mention it. Thanks for the insight!

Bingo, movie posters have absolutely gone down hill. They all look the same now.

A Netflix listing doesn't need to be same as outside a movie theater. They can be more similar to a tv guide.
