In the movie poster a figure made out of metal is standing in between two characters this could mean that the robot brings the two characters together and is the link of their relationship. The title’s colour is metallic silver and is in bold this could imply that the movie is set in the future. In the movie cover there are spotlights pointing at the main characters, this could imply that the characters are famous in the movie. This estimation is reinforced by the background, the background shows a large audience facing towards the characters, this could imply that they have followers and or supporters. Located in the center of the poster is a wrestling ring, through this I could forecast that in the movie some action would take place in a wrestling ring, and assuming that the characters are in the spotlight with a huge audience I can predict that the characters take part in a wrestling match in a stadium.

 

The shadow behind the characters could mean that the characters had a dark and sinister past,however in front of them is a bright light so this could mean that they find a good future. The robot’s stance is the same as the father to his left this could imply that the robot is a father figure toward the child. Also all the characters are walking towards the light from the dark this could mean that they have been in the dark for a long time and the idea of this movie may be about walking into the light.

 

The cover designers added Hugh Jackman's name at the top of the cover this shows that Hugh Jackman is starring in the movie, we can assume that this movie is a science fiction and action movie because most movies that Hugh Jackman is in are movies of those genre. Above the title is a quote “COURAGE IS STRONGER THAN STEEL”, from this quote I can predict that the child and or father will do a courageous act that creates a big impact. The three characters are walking in the same direction, from this I can assume that the robot, child and man are allies and are working towards the same goal.

 

I can predict that these characters are famous because there are camera flashes in the audience and on the other side of the ring, this could also imply that the opponents on the other side are also famous because flashes are on the opposing  side. Having camera flashes on the opposing side could imply that the press and paparazzi is on the opponent's side. The colour of the road that the three characters are walking on now is a plain dull beige, however the ring is silver, this could imply that the characters again, are walking towards a better life.


In conclusion I believe that the main point is that the three characters walk to glory because they have had enough of a dark dull life. I can predict that this movie was set in the future, where robots battle in a wrestling ring. This sport could be popular amongst the people because there is an audience.
