I don't know why you'd be asking about his Frogs poster when this poster at a million pounds is more noticeable

Hey Team,
He prices his stuff like this to grab the buyer's attention. notice how he as the "Make an Offer" option ?
he knows those other posters arent worth a million-- :o
but it gets people to ask. ;)
-
Try making him a good offer for anything Kerry, he just rejects it....
I think it's just a way for him to show his collection. eyeroll

sorta.. but he does sell alot of stuff.. look at his feedback or sold items list
-
haha yeah that dude is NUTS!
how can he sell anything? absolutely everything is comically priced!
there are a few people like that, that just seem to be chancing their arm. im not sure too many millionaires look on ebay for shyte posters???
umm well i wasnt really talking so much about the quad (that looks really horrible to be honest :o )
it was more the 1 sheet, but i couldnt find that on ebay?
-
He has had that Killer Klowns quad up forever. I really want one too.
-
Frogs is always popular, its "nifty" art (me trying to sound american).
This quad is not so god, but posters that use the full colour design sell like flap jacks (sounding american again).
Its a pretty boring movie, but ahh well, its got Ray Milland and frogs, its gotta be at least ok huh?
In Australia it was released on video as a double bill with premature burial. I must have rented it a zillion times.
-
I love the artwork on "Frogs." I mean come on, there's a frog. With an arm in it's mouth. And it's big.
Bah! Peasants.
Ari, that was pretty swell 'Merican but in the future, please note the correct spelling of color.
;)

Because it's got a frenchman on it?

The image for FROGS is pretty bizarre and striking. That's why it is so popular.
Too bad the movie isn't that great.

It's boring.
The problem with animal horror movies is that most of the animals in these films are not scary. Sharks ok, but frogs?

I meant the poster, but yes it is boring, but on a cold lonely night, kinda fun. Well nobody accused me of having taste.

You gotta love those wacky Italian poster designers. The two panel has the usual "hand in frog mouth" image, but the one-panel has a really cool image of three people covered in spiders, lizards, and snakes (and yet the title is still FROGS!).

Nasty introduced species. Kind of like pythons eating alligators in Florida!

oh yeah i know all about how cane toads conquered australia!!!
saw a doco a few years ago about how they just fuck everything up!
big fat slimy bastads!
-
lick them
-
if they got me smashed like "real frogs" ide be sucking them off!
as they are just big fattys with no gate way to another dimension, i think i'll be leaving the toad licking to the animal lovers around the world.

You're up Mr. Richards

I haven't and wont be licking one. I do remember an episode of LA LAW where a guy was charged with smuggling in Cane Toads from Oz to lick. Made me proud, people also smoke the dried skin.
-
if we had trippy frogs in the UK i would deffo have tried to get high off them!
i have pretty much tried every other method ever invented except ice. and thats only because i could never find any!
ironically a few weeks ago a meth lab got busted a few doors down from my shop i own in manchester.
i was dreadfully disappointed not to know about it. and felt slightly let down :(

Hahahaah. I remember seeing this video in school. In fact, I own a copy on VHS. One of the funniest mockumentaries I've ever watched in my life. In fact, whenever I think about cane toads, I always remember the movie. I would love to get a poster of it.
-
re trying it, I would have also in my younger days, I have never seen a cane toad myself though so I dodged that bullet.
re the movie, yeah its fun and the other is part 2 and in 3D!

Watched Frogs last weekend via MeTV. Amazing all the familiar faces of well known actors in Frogs. It was very badly enjoyable. Also, you do really have to search to see an actual frog among all the toads. One of my favorite scenes was the incredibly slow death scene by snapping turtle crawl. Okie
