Announcing the Winners of the Ultimate 80s Movie Poster Contest

There are certain numbers that always stick with you:

1. 21 gigawatts of power needed to send Doc and Marty back to the future.
2. 2 classic blunders: never get involved in a land war in Asia and never get involved in a battle of wits with a Sicilian when death is on the line.
3. 2029: the year from which Kyle Reese comes to save Sarah Connor.

But here at SitePoint, there’s one number that really sticks out to us right now:

6,095

That’s the number of entries we received for our Ultimate 80’s Movie Poster Contest! Yes, we are serious. And don’t call us, “Shirley”.
