@urbanemovies​ 

Thanks Benu! Added your suggestions!

@Peter_pbn​ 

The film was re-released in 1967, but not because of an anniversary.

@Peter_pbn​  & @Dibyayan_Chakravorty 

I think Peter has a point.

There seems to be three types of theatrical re-releases: 1) milestone anniversaries (5th, 10th, 15th, etc.), 2) those associated with an upgraded version of the film (restored, 3D, IMAX, 4K, Sound, etc.) or 3) those associated with other events (sequels, etc.).

Maybe, you could split the suggestion and do two or three different poll suggestions, as I assume most the odd year posters have to do with film being released with an upgraded print. After all, there are 250 movies that have had multiple re-releases, so there are tons of posters to choose from.

• 1) IMDb Movie Top 250 Milestone Anniversary Poster

​Which of these posters issued for the milestone anniversary re-release of a previously released film, currently in the ​​IMDb Movie Top 250​​, would you most like to decorate your room with?​

• 2) IMDb Movie Top 250 New & Improved Version Poster

Which of these posters issued for the release of an upgraded version of a previously released film, currently in the ​​IMDb Movie Top 250​​, would you most like to decorate your room with?​

@urbanemovies​ 

I don't think a separate suggestion is needed in this case as very few of the films from Top 250 are being re-released for an occasion and very few of them launch different poster designs for that occasion.

@Dibyayan_Chakravorty​

Your poll suggestion and your call.

But, your reasoning is flawed, as the opposite is true.

• I think you will hard pressed to find a movie in the Top 250 that hasn't been out a significant amount of time that hasn't been re-released.
• Plus, since it is common for posters get a dozen or so versions upon their first release, it is unusual to see the marketing department not issue a single new poster for a re-release. When you consider there is millions of dollars to be made, a couple thousand for a new poster is chump change to a distrbutor. Whether, they make into the IMDb media index is a separate issue. But as proof, you will usually see a version of the updated art on the home video product that follows the re-release.

@Dibyayan_Chakravorty​ 

If you are adding any official theatrical re-release poster which isn't necessarily related to an anniversary, you could call it IMDb Top 250 Coolest Re-Release Poster.

@Peter_pbn​ & @Dibyayan_Chakravorty,

It seems like an "anniversary in name only" poll to me too.

Not, only does the movie not have had to been re-released in a milestone year, it does not have been re-released on the anniversary date either, nor does it have to been during the same anniversary month. The only requirement seems to be it has to have been re-released either 366 days before or 366 days after the actual anniversary day to qualify for inclusion in the answer pool.

.........................

You may ask why I removed my previous Lawrence poster. I think one poster per movie creates better chance for other movies to be placed in future.

In case of multiple re-release posters, the one with cool design will be added.

Btw, your Lawrence and Sound both posters are stunning.

Added all the images to the list that were pending for Editors' approval.
