I apologize if you feel it is misleading. However, one-sheet artwork is designed and executed in Photoshop. (Especially since the focus of this post is retouching and the actual artwork itself, not final mechanicals.) They are not “designed” in InDesign or QuarkXpress — those are (as you point out) layout programs, and come into play later in the process — especially the production side, when dealing with typesetting billings and other parts of mechanicals, etc.

There are a many programs involved in the process I haven’t mentioned. (For example, more than a few poster logotypes originate in Adobe Illustrator, etc.)

But to say “the vast majority of movie posters are designed” in InDesign and Quark is not accurate.

This is just not true. The vast majority of movie posters are designed/typeset in Indesign, Quark or Illustrator, not Photoshop. Photoshop is not a layout package, but a photo editing package. I will give you that the images in the vast majority of movie posters were editing/finished/composited in Photoshop, but to say that the posters themselves are designed in this package is misleading and false.
