Well, I spent 10 minutes playing with #3, and came up with this. It's a little
unoriginal, but it shows off the visual style of the animation quite well.
And now I'm going to submit! Hope you like the finished animation.

If it's not too late I'd like to vote for: Anything but #3.
I do like the effect of the clouds in #1 and the cartoony appearance of
#2 precisely because they are not like image #3. I think that while #3
probably looks very cool as part of the animation it is just too cliched
for the promo poster. Go with something stylised like #1 or #1, that
people won't expect and which will get them wondering what the animation
looks like.

Well you have a good point, but the weight of opinion is against you. i.e. if
everyone here who voted for #3 decides to look at the animation then I'll be
happy :)
I completely agree with your reasoning. The way I looked at it was like this, I
had the conventional shot #3, the unexpected and somewhat spontaneous shot #1,
and the just plain overpowering #2.
Though the main reason I've gone for #3 is because it best represents the
quality of the animation. The other two suggest that maybe the animation is
slightly more abstract or lacking in detail. It is a cliche, but it's a cliche
for a reason: it shows the kind of things you want on a poster, so everyone uses
that style. Still, I wouldn't have been able to choose between them without
putting it to a vote.
But anyway, it's all academic now. I'm afraid you were too late, I've already
submitted it.

Yeah, I kinda guessed I was too late when I refreshed and saw your other
post ahead of mine. Obviously the image likely to get you the most
viewers is the right one, and it sounds like that's #3. Good luck.

I like #2 for its anime look and feel. But then again, that only
makes sense if the movie is an anime.

IMHO the top one is the best looking.

Wonderful! I liked #3 but felt the composition wasn't quite right for a
poster. I actually played around with it in Photoshop to see if I could do
any better, but your final image is perfect.
Looking forward the the premier!

And just one last thing, I liked this view so much I've rendered a massive
(5200x7800) version for zazzle. So I thought I'd post a slightly reduced (but
still really big) version here.
The poster will be available in a few days, along with a bunch of other ones.
Shameless plug :)

Thank you :)

It's much simpler than it looks:
sky_sphere{
//put the rest of the sky pigments here (before the sun)
pigment {
//sun
gradient y
scale 2
translate -1
Reorient_Trans( y, vnormalize(vSunPos)+z )
poly_wave 50
colour_map {
[0 rgbt 1]
[1 rgb <3,2,1>*1]
}
}
}
