LIVE POLL: Best Earth, World or Global Movie Poster?

Earth Month is held each April to demonstrate global support for environmental protection. Each year's particular focus is highlighted on April 22, Earth Day. Learn more about this year's Earth Day theme or about Earth Day 2021 in general by clicking on the hyperlinks.

Notably, small daily individual actions can collectively have a huge impact on the health of the Earth. Together, our home will be a better place to live, if we each do our part. In tribute to the Earth, a poll that features Earth depictions through the creative medium of movie posters.

Which of these select movie posters* with an actual Earth photo, an abstract global image or worldly map, best incorporates the planet Earth for the most eye appealing and creatively combined visual?

LIVE POLL: https://www.imdb.com/poll/wYbIQdiJpB0/

(*Movie posters are limited to one representative answer option per movie, alternate poster versions can be voted for by selecting that same option.)

Thanks, I haven't seen the movie and I was unsure if the planet pictured was Earth. The features of the planet are really hard to identify which continent or ocean this image features. So, I was unsure if it was really Earth. Do you know if this graphic from a movie scene or just production art created for the poster?

I think it is just production art.

But it is Earth:

Thanks, I would have missed this one. I skimmed through the plot and fast forwarded through the movie and I concur. Although, it comes close to one scene, the only real option is Earth for the planet's identity.

Thanks, keep them coming. I think it would be best to limit this list to features, TV movies, documentaries and DTV titles only.

A TV only list would have more than enough options, as a follow-up Earth Day poster poll, for someone to do.

I suspect there a lot movie posters with less than 5,000 votes that have cool earth-themed movie posters that I haven't fully explored. I think I have twenty-five strong options already. I am looking for any lesser known movie posters with strong visuals that could fill out the remaining spots in the answer pool, like this title that has only 3500 votes.

Hi Urb, if you update the intro just a bit, this could still go live in April:

Earth Month is held each April to demonstrate global support for environmental protection. Notably, small daily individual actions can collectively have a huge impact on the health of the Earth. Together, our home will be a better place to live, if we each do our part. In tribute to the Earth, a poll that features Earth depictions through the creative medium of movie posters.

Which of these select movie posters* with an actual Earth graphic, an abstract global image or worldly map, best incorporates the planet Earth for the most eye appealing and creatively combined visual?

(*Posters are limited to one representative answer pool option per movie, alternate poster versions can be voted for by selecting that option.)

(In bold is one suggested edit -- the comma after "map" -- as well as just a question about "pool." I didn't know if this was a typo and you meant "poll" or if you intentionally were using "pool," which I completely get. I think it's fine either way.)

I made two corrections to the question. I added the comma after map. I meant pool, but thought it got confusing after that. So, I deleted pool and added same to better reference which option I was referring to.

I wanted to explicitly talk about the visual message, theme and tagline ties-in with both the image and generates moviegoer interest. But, I thought it would over complicate things and could be implied in the "creatively combined" evaluation.
