How legal is it to make posters using screen shots from films?

Filed Under legal 

Will H asked:


I’ve been recently creating posters using screen shots from films along with text, and manipulating the image. How legal is it for me to continue to make these posters and what should I do if I want to sell these posters?

      You cant sell them. You can make them all you want. It may take a while but eventually you’d get a huge lawsuit from whatever studio produced the film.
