Simple but Heavy

The best part about the Star Wars prequels that came out earlier this decade was the first image that was released to the public to whet their ravenous appetites - a sparse teaser poster for 'Episode I: The Phantom Menanc', depicting a young Anakin Skywalker and the fateful shadow of what we all know he will inevitably become. It was a straight mudslide for Lucas from this point on.

This poster shows how powerful a simple image can be...and how Photoshop can help.

You can almost hear the Imperial March theme playing....

Ah, I love this. Such a neat concept and very easy to do with photo shop.
