Alamo Drafthouse / Rolling Road Show Poster Update

[holiday]

I think it actually sold out sooner - in two minutes.  Either way pretty amazing.  I decided to get one when I was looking and saw two things:  first, the death star pursuing the princess's cruiser in the upper left corner, and second the fact that I can't find the 10th bantha.  I see 7 clear ones, two more horns-only.  Where's the 10th? 

Now if that's not frivolity, I don't know what is.

[holiday]

I don't seen any now.  Do you really thing they all sold like that?

[Karza]

I think what Ryan is trying to say is that you are the tenth Bantha

[brude]

I count 10, sahib.
Look closely -- stage right, stage left and up top.

So who will be doing the final three posters and what will they show?

I bet one will have a Han/Leia romance theme.

Will Stout do his usual "cast of characters" style or something else?

How much will they charge for Stout?

[guest8]

Now there are 4 people on EB that are Ryan -Sub holders that have 2 copies and are selling the ones they just bought from Mondo.

As for your questions Mel .. Im pretty sure there is a Stout coming .. Now the rest is a mystery to me .. I just hope they do some actual movie posters, Ive had enough of these art prints As for what style Stout will do .. Im hoping he follows his latest trends .. IM2 and Let the Right One In were obviously his .. But not as crammed packed full of every possible character like some of his other pieces.

7 on ebay now .. and 2 already sold for $100 & $119 !! so thats 9 so far ...

Now 3 Sold .. 9 In Auction and 8 EB'ers selling theirs .. but who's counting

I just finished watching Pumpkinhead again.  What a great thing that would be, for Alamo to do a few for this one!

OK, I found the little fucker....

Yes, an Alamo version for Pumpkinhead would be cool. One of Stan Winston's finer creations.

Well, when something is this good, and from a renowned and growing artist, I'm always afraid the 230 prints (really a small number) will end up in people's collections to never see the light again.  Maybe you're right, and I'd agree with u on most prints, but not on this one.

And it's only $100 more, which is like a good dinner somewhere.

Sadly the prices have already started dropping to about $100-125 .. Once I pay for my Metal Stout Ill wait a couple more weeks then try to jump in and grab one .. Knowing my luck most will have sold except the few with BIN's of $300

Dual TRON drop for tomorrow.  Pretty nice looking posters by Eric Tan

[kovacs01]

I am not feeling the Tron set at all myself.  I liked Klaussen's much better.

[guest8]

Damn .. anyone who thought it was tough to get Alamo posters before .. Just wait for this ..

Apparently the Variants will be sold through Sideshow! I just want to know how they will release them and if it will coincide with the Mondo releases .. as a collector I typically want both versions but if they go up at the same time that will be near impossible without some help .. This is probably a great business move but its making it tougher and tougher on fans that have been loyal to mondo for a long time ..

Jay Ryan now has 10 Banthas up for sale on his site ..

I saw this in his blurb too and it made me wonder ..

"official lucasfilm-sanctioned print promoting screenings of the original three star wars movies at the alamo drafthouse cinemas in austin, texas. printed at D&L screenprinting in seattle."

With 3 prints left in the series .. I wonder if we will actually get 3 actual movie posters for the original SW trilogy !?!

I hope they use titles in the last three.  I sold all three of my Star Wars Mondos "at cost" because I decided I'm not going to buy pure "art prints."  However, I suspect they cannot use titles under their licensing agreement.

And when are they going to have more Star Treks?  Am I the only one who prefers them over Wars?

[Karza]

Tron is up and out

Tron lasted 3 minutes
Legacy 5 minutes

+1 on both

Thats what Im hoping for like an actual movie poster print .. title credits and all the stuff that makes it an "official" movie poster!

As for Trek .. it sucks

[brude]

Those TRON prints are absolutely BORING....
I will take any TRON movie poster over either one of those prints any day of the week...
But, that's just me being a curmudgeon, I guess... 

[guest8]

Mondo Check out messed up on me .. So at the last moment I opted out of getting these odd sized prints .. Instead I picked up the set of 3 one sheets for Legacy and IMHO I think they are way cooler than the Mondo offerings.

  Good thinking, man!

[Karza]

Those are really cool

[Ed_209uk]

I really like the new Star Wars set of three from Olly Moss - probably my favourite yet.

Link to all three and a Wired article.

So, yesterday I'm driving to North Carolina.  I know the drop is coming and all I have is my iPhone.  Gotta stop to piss.  At a Turnpike reststop in the bathroom.  Dick in hand at the urinal.  Phone in the other.  Get the message!  On sale now!  Pissing with one hand and ordering with the other.  Now that's multitasking.  AND that's pretty sad.

[Harry Caul]

Now those I actually like... but is that Vader or Sandra Bullock?

 


This is actually the first time I've been tempted to buy, but I probably shouldn't ruin my streak!  Best of luck to those going after these three... I hope Holiday won't be knee deep in shit when these drop.
