Skyline spaceship movie billboard...

Skyline spaceship movie billboard
As a true sci-fi geek, the idea of alien invaders descending on L.A. would give me a real thrill rather than send shivers up my spine, so imagine my delight when I saw this spaceship billboard for the new movie, Skyline, hovering over the Sunset Strip.

The trailer looks awesome, so I can't wait to see these extraterrestrial spacecraft tractor-beaming the human population of Los Angeles up into their glistening bellies in the movie.

This eye-catching billboard was photographed along Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood on October 19, 2010.

Due Date movie billboards...

Due Date movie billboard
You'll find comedic geniuses Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis looking down on L.A. from numerous different billboard creatives for their new movie, Due Date, at the moment.

The trailer looks hilarious and Daily Billboard wonders if this comedy could be this year's The Hangover?

This fun billboard was snapped on October 10, 2010 along Fairfax Avenue in L.A.

UPDATED: This other smaller creative for Due Date was snapped along Sunset Boulevard on November 2, 2010.

DUO DAY: Star Wars character billboards...

Yoda Dodgertown billboard
With Star Wars characters returning to the skies of L.A. for the re-release of The Phantom Menace in 3D, Daily Billboard was also excited to see Darth Vader doing his bit to promote the newly upgraded Star Tours attraction at Disneyland in California, which is also in 3D.

Daily Billboard then remembered another fantastic Star Wars themed billboard from a few years ago featuring Jedi master, Yoda, from the animated Clone Wars series.

Daily Billboard isn't sure whether he was familiar with baseball (although with the way he swings that lightsaber you never know), but he was drafted in as part of the Dodgertown ad campaign for the Los Angeles Dodgers along with a whole slew of other famous faces.

His glittering lightsaber really stood out from a distance and the "My Town This Is" slogan was a witty play on his distinctive speech pattern.
Yoda My Town This Is billboard
The Yoda billboard was snapped along Sunset Boulevard at Cahuenga Boulevard on July 10, 2009, whilst the dark side's Darth Vader was photographed along Sunset Boulevard on January 18, 2012.

May the Force be with you.

DUO DAY: Mirror Mirror movie billboards...

Giant Mirror Mirror billboard
With Mirror Mirror and Snow White and the Huntsman both coming to cinema screens this year, who will be the fairest of them all?
Mirror Mirror movie billboard
Daily Billboard thinks that Mirror Mirror is off to a great start with these arresting billboards which capture that fairytale feel.

Aside from Lily Collins 'Snow White' holding an enchanted red apple to convey the theme of the movie, it doesn't hurt to see Julia Roberts recognizable face, playing against type as the 'Evil Queen', to garner your attention.

It also looks like Tarsem Singh's cinematic version of Snow White will have more humor than its big screen competitor (there's even a hint of a wicked smile on Julia Roberts lips), which will make it easier for cinema goers to justify going to watch similar Brothers Grimm themed films.

The standard landscape billboard was snapped along Fairfax Avenue at Oakwood Avenue on February 8, whilst the super-sized version was captured along L.A.'s Sunset Strip on February 10, 2012.

If you like these ads, be sure to check out TV's Once Upon a Time billboards for similar fairytale fare.

MOVIE WEEK: Big Miracle billboards...

Big Miracle film billboard
Big Miracle looks like it's a heartwarming tale, even when it's set in freezing Alaska.

Let's face it, what's not to love about saving some endangered grey whales trapped in the Arctic ice, especially when it's inspired by a true story from the 80's.

These billboards for the movie were snapped at Universal Studios Hollywood on November 30, 2011.

If you like this aquatic themed billboard, you should also check out the Dolphin Tale movie billboard.

Be sure to stay tuned in the coming week for even more fantastic billboards every day at Daily Billboard.

MOVIE WEEK: Quantum of Solace 007 billboards...

James Bond Quantum of Solace billboard
With James Bond's next outing, Skyfall, currently in production Daily Billboard thought fans of the British Secret Service Agent would enjoy this blast from the past from 007's last cinematic outing.

In the 22nd James Bond movie the threat wasn't a deadly orbiting satellite, imminent nuclear destruction or even a deadly virus, but shock horror, control of the Earth's water supply. Simply diabolical.
Quantum of Solace 007 billboards
These cool Quantum of Solace billboards featuring Daniel Craig and Olga Kurylenko were snapped along Sunset Boulevard and Melrose Avenue in October and November 2008.

Wrath of the Titans movie billboard
Following the poor critical reception of the 2010 Clash of the Titans remake, Sam Worthington promised better acting in the sequel and by the looks of this billboard for Wrath of the Titans he's certainly giving it his all as the Greek demi-god 'Perseus'.

MOVIE WEEK: This Means War billboards...

This Means War movie billboard
The battle for Valentine's Day box office is on. Make war, not love.
This Means War billboard
Will it be the romantic drama drama The Vow or will cinema goers opt for a more fun spy-themed comedy like This Means War.
Make War Not Love billboard
In the action comedy two CIA hotties, Chris Pine and Tom Hardy, vie for Reese Witherspoon's affections.
This Means War billboard
Daily Billboard loves the cool James Bond-esque vibe of this creative, and thinks it stands out so much more in black and white with a splash of red, rather than if it was in full colour. Although it obviously helps to have three very attractive stars to turn heads as well.
This Means War billboard
There's also something about this ad creative that really reminds Daily Billboard of the Morning Glory movie billboard from October 2010, maybe it's just that they are both in mono with three actors in a similar position.
Make War Not Love movie billboard
These cool movie billboards were snapped along Sunset Boulevard, Fairfax Avenue at Beverly Boulevard and La Cienega Boulevard on January 26, 2012.
