Adobe Flash is definitely the preferred platform by the film industry when it comes to creating visually stunning sites aimed at promoting new film releases.

Here is a selection of the ten best websites for movies of the current and past season that deserve to be added to your bookmarks as a source of inspiration in the field.

Salt – The CIA officer, Evelyn Salt, played by Angelina Jolie, is accused of being a Russian spy and must use her experience as agent to avoid being caught. The website of this movie shouldn’t be missed especially for the graphics and the excellent quality of images and photos.

Inception is a revelation for the current season, an awesome blockbuster that has been defined by Peter Traverser (Rolling Stone Magazine) as a well done mix between James Bond and The Matrix, with a compelling storyline and spectacular special effects. The website is equally impressive, especially for the transition effects between the different sections. Something I personally liked is the background music taken from the original soundtrack.

For the hardcore fans of the genre, July marks the return of “Predators” the new chapter of the 80′s (almost) homonymous film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. The site is extremely appealing, too bad though for the textures in the background of the menus at the top of the screen, that do not really seem to be of great quality.

The sixth chapter of the Saw series showcases a site with a very dark and claustrophobic mood. Worth a mention, the scenes of the movie appearing in the background while you browse through the pages and the audio effects.

Great visual effort in the website dedicated to the film Splice, a thriller starring Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley and focused on the aberrations of genetic engineering. The graphics are clean and essential, the videos in the background have a good quality and are well integrated with the user interface.

Defined by Stephen King as one of the finest flicks of the year, The Road , starring Viggo Mortensen, sports a website that is essential and yet visually appealing. Beautiful effects and sounds, fading into the background.

Original, impressive visual effects and interface with a 3D navigation menu the site for Iron Man 2 is a feast for your eyes, one of the most spectacular you might expect from a Flash site.

The new movie by M. Night Shyamalan, The Last Airbender, is astonishing for its amazing special effects and website is no exception.

All the unforgettable characters of the most famous action movies ever are gathered in The Expendables film based on the story of a group of mercenaries sent to South America on a mission that seeks to overthrow the local dictator. The site is particularly interesting for the effects of contextual navigation with the mouse and the different animations.

2012, the latest movie about the Apocalypse and a blockbuster of the past season, showcases a minimal website with a clean and basic layout. The spectacular background images and fading animations in the menu make the site pleasant in its simplicity.

    Great post – don’t agree with Salt – the site is very poor – and doesn’t belong in this group of websites. The Expandables and Inception are fantastic websites. They are very dynamic and unique and they seem like they represent the films well.

    Checking out the sites now. Cheers!

    Sexy visual and nice article, but I have to say the majority of those film websites are lame. No real effort was put into them at all. Come on studios pull your finger out!
