Hang on to your cup of coffee because I feel the need, the need for speed as we head into the Danger Zone care of GABZ and Odd City Entertainment. It's my please to reveal GABZ's Top Gun poster for the defining 80's film starring Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer and many others.
For all of us who grew up in the 80’s, Paramount’s Top Gun is one of the most seminal action films from our formative years. Despite its machismo, male and female viewers alike love this film.
It was the top grossing film of 1986, made household names out of its stars, and inspired multiple parodies that continue to be produced to this day.
The Top Gun print by Gabz features the popular fighter jets from the film, and is designed to be viewed in two directions.
Gabz discusses the movie and poster he designed
“When you’re an 80’s kid like myself you just had to see and fall in love with Top Gun. Sure it has that testosterone/macho vibe that used to be so popular back in those days. Call me nostalgic, but I consider it a classic action flick, with brilliant aerial sequences, cool characters and an awesome soundtrack. When approached by Odd City for this print I knew I wanted something horizontal this time around. I decided a jet fighter battle recollecting the Cold War era should really work well with this title. I also wanted to step back from the complex multi-character based compositions with this one, and to design the print in a way so it could be viewed upside down as well.” - GABZThe posters measure 36"x24" inches and are 8 color screen prints on Holographic "FOIL" Paper. There will be two colorways Sunset (orange and red) and Magic Hour (blue and red). Each colorway will be an edition of 100. Each one will cost $100. Fully licensed and Numbered edition
