I see your 1-panel and I raise you 8.   ;D

Seriously, though, great poster!

Nice find, Matt!
Best wishes,

Nice.  Do you own the red dress version?  I never know which one is hard to find and which one is not.  Nice regardless.

Finally got the exquisite "The Killers" (1956rr) partially-restored/lbacked and randomly perched it on one wall. No planning at all but then I realized the four - GWTW is a 1970rr Japan B1 BTW - had to have a common theme. But what?

How about "What the American public always wants is a tragedy with a happy ending." (William Dean Howells - 1919). But I've only seen GWTW, which definitely meets that maxim. Better suggestions?

*****

I'm the world's worst photographer but this was a difficult shot, reflections, limited space.



*****

The quite rare 1956rr is vastly superior to the originall release!



*****

Poster Mountain's pic. I deliberately kept the tape stains and paper loss unrestored, apropos for such a disreputable movie poster subject.

Alright, I posted this new 2001 poster everywhere online and it finally resonated on the Science Fiction subreddit, 300+ likes:

I love this image.  Is it a printed poster?

Up today (finally):



Exceptionally rare printers-proof Australian 1S for 2007's "Death Defying Acts" in my apt!

Info from designer Jeremy Saunders via email: "Well they actually did print them and distribute a modified version of this print. But as they were put up in the cinemas the word came back from [Zeta-Jones'] people that the posters were unapproved (a bit late) and they were not to be printed. I suspect that in any other situation the distributors would have simply ignored it but she was in the country doing PR the next day so they were all hurriedly ripped off the walls."

Not bad.  If I wasn't so against the ancillary market, I'd get it.  Alas, none for me.

Well been very inactive in everything MP-related since end of Jan for several reasons, but I did FINALLY put these RIDICULOUSLY expensive MPs in the "right" place where I can view them frequently i.e. in front of my computer):

Yep 275 MPs patiently awaiting framing/displaying :)

 Very nice, Mel.  I’m sure one of your many assistants had a blast hanging those posters so high up.

I hope they got a nice tip.

Kilian mylar MPs are ze best!

http://moviepostercollectors.guide/MPC_Showcase_Kilian.html

I owned these two WFRRs from 2010-15 and rebought both in the last year, finally today rejoined on wall (high up - but no tipping apt staff(haha)).

They are printed on heavy HQ gold mylar and "glitter" in the right light. On left is the "rejected" red dress Style E (samples improperly leaked/sold to public); on right is pink Style D.



Glitter arms!

A pair of beautiful Goldmember legs is a good start for the empty wall space, Sundance! I think you also may have set a minor record with the length of that last sentence! I think I hung in there with you and didn't get bucked off: the robber gang went to jail, and not your new assistant, right? Okie
