Rest in peace to a true master of his craft. I absolutely adore Tony Stella’s style when it came to movie posters, his work for the Hong Kong classics line is the stuff of legends.
Legendary artist Tony Stella has passed away...
He's known for his incredible poster and Blu-ray artwork celebrating cult cinema, martial arts films, horror, and classic genre movies. His detailed painted style became a favorite among collectors, especially through his work with Arrow Video and other boutique labels.
His artwork left a major mark on the world of physical media and cult film culture.
Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.

@MichaelJLeader To my eyes nothing matches Akira, it just has the most visually appealing art style of all anime. On a big screen it was something else
Can we just take a minute to appreciate that Justin Bieber preparing for his #Coachella performance by chilling out in a 2007 Swindon Town third shirt. I wonder if behind the child he’s holding it’s still got the Kingswood logo intact. #stfc

The original 35mm print had that distinct blue tinge which the Tartan Asia Extreme version had. The confusion is understandable, when they showed it in theatres here in March some were showing it in original 35mm and others the Shout 4k. Guess 35mm was in short supply.
@yourmcpodcast Had a similar experience, although I think it came more from a collective realisation of “this film is so insane all you can do is laugh”. I chuckled a few times tbf. And then at the end the entire cinema gave the film a round of applause, so they were redeemed
