I noticed that for many movies the top-ranking poster no longer is a (cleaned up) version of an official movie poster, but is instead fanart. Admittedly, some great designs have been posted -- but as these fanart posters typically are far-removed from the atmosphere, tone, and design language of the studio designed poster, for me personally this just does not work. Often the designs are so different, that I do not even recognise the movie that they are suppose to reflect...
Which brings me to the question: Could we introduce a way for (cleaned up) versions of the official movie posters to always rank higher than fanart? Would there be support for that?
(apologies if this is a double post -- i could not directly find an existing thread on this issue)

@sanderbakkes Can you make a separate report of a movie with some fan posters available? The problem is that some of the professional poster designers of this world are releasing their own works before the official art is released and users tend to think those are the official ones. Report and they will be removed.
Just to be sure we are talking about the same thing - fanart on TMDb would be any poster made from material not related to the show or movie. A while back I removed a bunch of such posters from Oppenheimer, to use a notable example.
