Nostalgia never goes out of style and the love for all things 8-bit seems unbounded. For April Fool’s this year, Google showed off Google Maps for NES, an 8-bit layer that turned the world into a Nintendo-themed landscape. That love for 8-bit, NES, and the movies is certainly evident in the works of spritely graphic designer Eric Palmer.
Palmer illustrates the characters and themes from popular modern flicks using a minimal colour palette and classic Mega Man game sprites. Have a look at his retro 8-bit posters for Star Wars, 300, V for Vendetta, Kill Bill, and more after the jump.
See a few more of Palmer’s artwork on Behance.

love it! these are some awesome looking posters
You might like Wonchan Lee’s Pixar posters too.
And if you like, you can buy Palmer’s posters on Society6, and Lee’s ones are at his online shop. I’d have to say Lee’s Wall-E is my favourite.
will check it out, thanks :)
