I love that Mulholland Drive poster from Mondo. I originally had the other Mulholland Drive poster that Mondo did, but this one is so much more evocative and representative of the movie. Plus, his title treatment and likeness of Naomi Watts are pretty good.

Nice Mulholland Dr., but where do you see Naomi Watts' likeness?

Got this Durieux this morning.  Not 100% sure I like it yet, but I wanted to see it in person, so I bought it.

Ah, another man that has never beheld the backside of Naomi Watts.  It is really an experience you should seek out, as long as it will not cost you a divorce.  Good luck!

Thanks.  You know what you did.

I have, trust me, I have.  But it could also be Keira Knightley.  Which would also be very good.

I picked up the Durieux print also. I like that Mulholland Drive print, but I think Kevin Tong did a better one

I love that print.  Probably the best Watts around.

I agree. I think the poster by Kevin Tong is much more representative of the movie.

I wonder if they had to pay royalties to the M.C. Escher estate.

Tomer Hanuka is doing some really nice things. Very happy to have bought this poster today.

Good looking print, there, hemet.

I really like the look of the billowing plume of smoke behind him, too.

I passed on it too, sorry hemetsucks.  The reds are amazing, but I had a problem with the man's left arm.  It looks longer than his right arm, a little disproportionate, and after noticing it, that's all I could see and it stopped me from purchasing it.

The arm is in the center of the piece so the eye is immediately drawn to it. I can easily see people passing on this poster, but it's a great film and a title that rarely gets any treatment.

The colors are also just amazing and Hanuka's prints always look better in person.

I got one too - it was a tick in each of the artist/film/art boxes for me. I went for the reg as I like the green...it reminds of that portion of the film when they're trying to take out the machine gun nests at the top of the hill and moving through the long wavy grass.

I said the left arm, not the right.

You should have emailed me directly, Dale.  It doesn't happen very often, but I actually have zero interest for that Deadpool movie so I could have tried to get them for you.  But I just only checked this thread.  I hope you got them.

Ah shit, o for 3. To see the creator have a print for the film is pretty damn cool and something I have always thought Mondo should have been doing with the marvel stuff. I am going to secondary market, as always; hope the print nose dives and goes cheap!
