The Spiderman poster has many redeeming qualities that sugest that the movie as a whole could be very enjoyable. If you notice the high angle shot coupled with the sense of vertigo that it posseses whilst simultaniously conveying a certain mystery to it you will agree that as far as symbolic expressionism goes the result of the categorisation of the movie by critics of the poster is an example of its cross-over into different styles of film. Further more, if we take into account the fact that the poster is constructed through the judicial use of existing images and conventions that have already been mediated through film or in other related forms we can understand the movie through our experiences and comparisons with other films or media products. These in turn assure the poster its authenticity and overall coolness.
