Ok, wow these are genius. That's the legit sort of style and tone of real Criterion cover art IMO:

Not particularly cool, but another classic understated legit Criterion style:

I don't think there are files to be downloaded :(, just people with too much time on their hands making some stuff and taking pictures of it I guess. It would be awesome if there were normal files available to download and print out. Maybe I'll try tracking the guy down who made it and shoot him an email.
 
There's some really sweet looking covers there. Mostly for movies that would never get released through Criterion. :lol: I guess the covers for The Rock and Armageddon could be used as alternate Criterion covers since both movies were previously released through them.

Yeah I think that was the premise when they started the website: make Criterion covers for movies that would never be released through Criterion!
 
I like how they even made one for New Wave Hookers. :lol: If Criterion ever decides to release porn I'm sure that's a title that would be fitting, although it would have to be the shorter, edited version. I could see them releasing some of the Johnny Wadd films though.
 
Ok, I'll give it a rest lol. But just one more. This is so full of win, its not even funny!

Ok I lied. One more, not a fake Criterion, but a movie poster made by one of the guys who did some of the Fake Criterions:

i second these sentiments. thanks for sharing, katman!
 
Wow, these are all fantastic!

My personal favorites: BTTF2, Clue, 2001 (I didn't even care for the movie, but that box art makes me want to see it again!), Transformers, and Shawshank.

Many of these are significantly better than the ones that the actual studios use!
