What's your favorite poster?

Having been in the business of posters for the past 3 years now, I realize with new designs coming in every month or so having an absolute all time favorite is a hard thing to maintain.
Mostly it is a reflection of personal liking for particular the TV series or the movie or the superhero, but with time I have grown to appreciate the art that these posters actually are. When we began, one of my favorite ones was an Audrey Hepburn large size poster in her renowned cult movie classic ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’, in her black dress and pearls while the Manchester United Mosaic was close to Mohit’s heart for obvious reasons.
Over the course of 3 years, our likes have ranged from Game of Thrones, 5 kings 1 throne to Bob Marley Paint Splash Poster for its psychedelic viewing pleasure, although I have personally never heard his music. Having brought few designers on board with us, I have enjoyed Aviks creations especially his take on Sherlock as played by Benedict Cumberbatch in the BBC series to the artistically presented quotes by my co-founders brand Verita.
Mohit on the other hand has a more varied and broader interest spectrum and has severely enjoyed the Superman logo to a Captain America poster. He took great pleasure in Homer Simpson’s antics as well while enjoying the pictogram poster from the popular day time series, Friends. His room currently boasts posters of Dark Knight, Rooney and Eminem, while I on the other hand have Audrey Hepburn, Paris and Friends.
But surprisingly or not, a common poster which we have consistently enjoyed as well as have had opportunity to display at various exhibitions and Comic Con across the country is Godfather – The Don. Personally, I have enjoyed the color schematics on the poster of a cult trilogy which has been a part of a true cinematic experience and what it represents, while Mohit has just hands down loved the movie to have a framed 24x36 inch poster hanging above his bed, making sure that’s the first and last thing he sees every day.

That’s our favorite one or rather ones, or as its conventionally called ‘Staff Picks’.
