Problem with poster: It follows the Guidelines but it's rejected

Petition to replace current Primary Poster that doesn't follow IMDb's Guidelines for Primary Images

Title Poster Images

A "poster" image can be displayed in the top left of the title page - otherwise known as a "primary" poster. You are able to submit more than one poster to a title, but can only have 1 'primary' poster at a time. Your choice should strike a good balance between the following criteria:

For Movies - The most iconic and widely-recognized poster, of the best image quality. English language posters are preferred if available, although we may exercise editorial discretion to override this in some special cases.

Now, I have submitted #201113-031353-124102  and #201116-171223-038202 , both declined because they allegedly "Does not meet contribution guidelines" when they clearly does: Image it's the original theatrical poster, it is the most iconic image of the film and it contains the film's title in both English and the original language. Current primary image is neither a theatrical poster nor the most iconic image, the only criteria it meets it is has the title in the English language. It doesn't even feature the most iconic actor alongside the main actress.

Looking forward for a solution, thanks in advance.

Thank you for your post.

 


We only make changes to a title poster if the suggested photo fits better with our primary image guidelines. We believe the current primary image on the title aligns better with our primary image guidelines; as such we will not be changing the main photo at this time.

 


Thanks for your understanding.
