Arbitrary Appreciation: Movie Posters that use the "tilt head down and make eye contact" pose

Ray Park as Darth Maul demonstrating the "tilt head down and make eye contact" pose.
This poster was the first poster I owned that used the "tilt head down and make eye contact" pose in order to make someone look epic. This shortcut to epicness is used in countless posters, some deserving, some really really not.

There are more. Lots more. 
Warning: Trying to recreate this pose without a marketing team, reasonably high budget, brand name or certain level of fame is a surefire way to look very silly.
