I can’t quite believe it myself, but this year I only went twice to a movie theater. Not that I didn’t see a lot of new movies, but in 2012 I saw the vast majority of them in the comfort of my own home, on-demand, via digital download like iTunes or on Blu-ray.

It took a bit of digging this year to compile my “best of” list. Usually, the problem is that I find so many posters that I have to cull quite a few good ones just to make this list a manageable size, but not this year. This year the challenge was just finding enough posters for the list. I found lots of posters I liked, but only a few I loved.

The best poster of the year is the series of posters released for the second season of the HBO TV series Game of Thrones.
