[Koleckai Silvestri 1151]

Would need to support GIF, MNG or WebP images. Or all three unless there are readily available conversion tools.

[LiquidFX 141]

this would pretty cool

[fantaxp7 191]

And this for backdrops

 

 

 

 

And this cool matrix one

 

 

 

But of course there is no awesome repository for such things that would make this easy

Man the backdrop one is freaking me out, I love it!

1 is neat.  Imagining a poster wall full of that makes me shudder...but I'm pretty darn picky about movie posters.

[Luke 40122]

Yea that's pretty neat.

Yeah, my first thought was of a web page in 1995.  Remember all those animated GIFs...?

[AdrianW 1055]

That backdrop is similar to a whole series of great GIFs that were on the site If we don't. Remember Me. But the images seem to have gone now.

 

Here's a whole heap of images from Kubrick movies.

If that makes you shudder, now imagine a poster wall like that for someone's porn collection.

I won't imagine that and you can't make me.

[sfnetwork 514]

Is there a source for that?

The inception one is so cool BTW...

The first webpage I coded in 1997 was all south park GIFs.. remember visible frames?

[fantaxp7 191]

This thread is fun. Here, have another.

 

Edit, one one more

Yeah that last 2 are cool. Less is definitely more in this case I think.

I subscribe to reddit's cinemagraph subreddit and they pop up on my feed. http://www.reddit.com/r/Cinemagraphs/

I've seen them reffered to as motion posters.  They are very cool.  A user on avsforums also created software to turn a tv that's been rotated 90degrees to show them off.  I think there is even a request on here or the previous tracker requesting a plugin to integrate these into MB3 so it shows the poster for the movie currently being played.

 

http://www.movieposterapp.com/  (click more link for more examples, a lot of them are videos but could be converted to a high quality gif)

 

here are some more.

[navanod 12]

Very cool idea, both or either as a poster and backdrop.

[Heckler 147]

WOW... I am loving these animated posters...  But what about boxsets, I use the stacked setting in coverart for those... I'd love to see that rotate through the movies in the boxset folder.

 

But unless I could have gif posters for everything, I wouldn't want it. I like having conformity throughout my movies... and I've got about 1200 movies that would need animated posters.  

 

The backdrops however... those would be so cool.

[ebr 15673]

If you really want animated backdrops, that is possible now with the theme videos.

[Heckler 147]

This poster is my fave... it's even got sound.
