Action movie posters often use large capitalized blocky fonts for the title and text, sometimes edited to relate to the movie's content. Fantasy films feature dramatic and extravagant fonts reflecting their fantastical genres. Romantic films typically have realistic, softer fonts that don't visually represent the movie as strikingly as other genres. Most horror posters avoid gory or extravagant fonts instead opting for classic, old-fashioned text, which informed the designer's font and color choices for their own horror poster.

3. Action posters often use
big block capitals for
their title and text. They
also edit the font to make
it relate to the movie, for
example in the
Expendables with the big
steel plates bolted
together as the text.

4. Fantasy films use dramatic and
extravagant fonts, to reflect the genre
of film and the otherworldly factors.

5. Romantic films are often
realistic and relates to our
own lives, they don’t really
express what’s happening
through the text unlike other
more visually striking films.
The text I've found used is
more plain and softer, often
delicate and more girly than
most.

6. I have found that most horror
posters don’t use gory or
extravagant fonts to reflect their
movie. Instead, using classic and
quite old fashioned text especially
when the film is about exorcism
and the paranormal etc. This has
inspired and helped me decide
what fonts and colours I should
use for my Horror poster.
