Now, about those Connerys...  "What does it matter to ya When you got a job to do You gotta do it well You gotta give the other fellow helllllll...."Those Connerys and frames cost me $2,000. Should I spend another $2,000 acquiring all originals or should I spent it finding my own Pussy Galore?

And the rest! Whew! 49 Bond posters up on the wall - not too shabby. Now I've got to throw a James Bond party this month. Any ideas?
I would recommend martinis and a bunch of hot, easy women. And it will pain you to do, but you should probably invite your nemesis too... you know, so you can have a nice respectable chat with them. Do you expect me to talk? Ha, ha, ha... no mister Mel, I expect you to die! Nice Connery's by the way!

How long does it take you to change out 49 posters? Can't you find a small place for one insert poster to make it an even 50?

Nice Bond Posters Mel! I was looking at your "50 years of bond" poster (very well put together) and to make it 50 years shouldn't it be 2012?

CJ: "1962 - 2011" - probably messed that up - I was thinking Dr. No was released in early 1962 but it was actually Oct 1962 in UK and May 1963 in US - really just looking for an excuse for a "50th" anniversary poster
Chad: 49 posters - I ran out of 41" frames, thwarting my evil plan
Harry: Yes, I'm all for your party plan! Gotta rent that white tux...

The advance withdrawn and regular Pulp Fiction posters side by side. I've carefully checked my advance poster and I'm 100% convinced it is original. It meets every test on MPA perfectly - size, color, etc. I can't really say which I prefer. The replacement poster has brighter colors and Thurman has a lighter, more "life like" skin tone. However, the withdrawn shows the whole body, the credits are less intrusive, and the gun is less prominent. Which do you prefer?

I prefer the regular for a few reasons: a) brighter color b) I like the actors' names stacked on the left c) logo typography d) pistol prominence e) full credits
..ohhh, and did I mention the price?

I'm shocked to say this, but I like the replacement better now that I've seen them side by side.
I should add, that I am in no way biased by the fact that I own the replacement and cannot afford the recalled ;-)
But yeah, the gun looks better on the replacement and as brude just said, the actors names are more prominent on the second one.
I'm still jealous though :-)

I think the gun looks more fake to me on the replacement even though you can see it better.

The more the merrier - just received a mint rolled Pulp Fiction advance dictionary
Very nice. One of my all time favorite movies and posters (all three of them I love). ~ Juli

I am desperately looking for a Steven Spielberg signed letter (especially with Schindler's List content). If you have one I will make you an offer you can't refuse.

You are so fucked Mel. Once you've crossed the "I'll sell this one so I can buy that one" line it is all down hill from there... Welcome to the club, by the way
