Closed at $405.00 tonight.

Yeah, that was an unexpected result. I placed some bids on that one but was not the high bidder, and was indeed surprised to find such relentless competition. There is at least one other person out there willing to spend money on Mexican posters.

I did get some other good ones though

Them Australians sure have a way with colors.

Has anyone seen this "purple variant" Australian daybill for The Road Warrrior?

Cool looking daybill, there, Brandon. And what is also interesting and different from the more standard looking DB, is what is written at the very bottom, stating it is a Roadshow Release. Does that term apply to a first release run in AU? Dunno.

The other db dont have this: ( as can be seen on EMP's database http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/film_title/MAD%2520MAX%25202%253A%2520THE%2520ROAD%2520WARRIOR/tag/xtype%253AAustralian%2520daybill/archive.html )

Good eye.

That may explain why they went with a different color, so it would stand out to promote the re-release.(?)

That HUMO EN LOS OJOS poster really is rather voluptuous, isn't it?

Roadshow are an Aussie distro company and are notorious for crappy cheap posters for their releases.
I haven't seen this before, but the film was very popular, so perhaps a second run.

why is this not a stcky anymore? 300 page topics should be pinned

why does it need to be pinned? it gets enough comment it's always at the top anyway

A handful of things were 'unpinned' as that section was too full of pinned threads, some of which hadn't been added to in months.

Like anything, tho, nothing is etched in stone.

Some good bidding last night at eMovie.

Ratatouille is a great movie, and this B1 is neat. Two guys, monopainter and MOVIEGOINGEXPCE drove up the price from $56 to $215.

http://auctions.emovieposter.com/bidding.taf?_function=detail&auction_uid1=4135422

This B1 for The Ninth Gate is cool, especially with the added texture. Surprising it didn't get more bidding action. I put a bid on it, but didn't battle with Monsieur Brie, who won it.

Alright, you guys called me crazy several years ago saying the green Halloween quad doesnt exist. It is now in Bruce's auction history! Here it is in all its ugly glory, but the only one I have ever seen.

I demand proof that this assertion is in fact true. At the moment, this claim stands as being completely and udderly unsubstantiated

Yes, I have the Ninth Gate B1 and the raised texture and gloss of the blood on an otherwise matte finish poster is quite striking in person.

It may be all text, but I still do like the look of it.

+1
It reminds me of the Solid Text Nightmare on Elm Street 2 Quad teaser....except NOES2 is black with white text. Tagline: The Man of Your Dreams is Back!
