In an attempt to keep this blog up to date on a
more regular basis for the next few months, I will post a series of "color poster
triptychs" between the longer, more substantial articles.
There are
only two rules: 1) The three officially released posters (including re-release
but not fan-made artwork) within one triptych have to be from different films.
The same poster can be part of several triptychs. 2) Their juxtaposition should
highlight some aspect of their color design (and composition, if possible).
Comment or discussion of these aspects is not necessary but sometimes provided.
Sometimes they highlight characteristics of a specific era, genre or target
group, sometimes they open up a dialogue between vastly different subjects and
storytelling traditions.
So today, enjoy and compare these three rainbows. It would have been easy to put this more similar WIZARD OF OZ video release poster in the middle, but the one from NO with only one head gives the triptych a bit more tension.

Since the size of actual movie posters is quite
important to their impact, it would be fun to do something like this in real
life some day. But in the meantime, let's have a look how this develops in
digital form.
