Valuable, but not rare

[Bruce]

What are posters that are auctioned over and over, and lots of dealers have them, but they go for a lot of money?

[Steven11788]

Id say Jaws-Halloween-F13 and a few other i cant think of

[Harry Caul]

Star Wars?  Pulp Fiction Lucky Strike?  Breakfast at Tiffany's? 

[Juli]

I think Star Wars is an excellent example. Also would add to the list Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Pulp Fiction. There seem to be many available but still go for almost $100 or more.

SPIDER MAN teaser, RESERVOIR DOGS, DARK KNIGHT (Why So Serious?), LOST IN TRANSLATION...there are many.

James Bond (Connery era).  I'm continually amazed at how much the US one sheets go for, and there seems to be no shortage of them.  Plus they've released them 2 to 3 times and even some of the re-releases go for a lot.  I've tried to stay away from getting into collecting Bond.  Not interested in owning something everyone else has, plus in terms of the US one sheets the art is pretty bland.

As much as I hate to see the end of paper,stuff like this will be cool,in the future.

It will be interesting to see how creative (and animated) some posters will become... all a choice, of course, by the creatives... but they can do some very cool stuff already, no doubt about it, Anthony.

Eventually,when you can just put a usb in your one sheet size frame,or lightbox,or however the tech works,I would imagine moving images like this would become the norm.A Godzilla movie is released years from now and the poster actually moves around.Godzilla walks around crushing stuff,shooting the rays....that would be beyond cool!!

[Chop-Top]

But wouldn't it require piracy to obtain the digital versions?

[Starling]

I know the Alien teaser (which I do think is very cool) is advertised as being super rare, and always pulls a pretty penny, but I feel that it's not as rare as we think....just my thoughts.

the boxes will be controlled from a central location in LA or NY or Chicago etc and advertising will adjust automatically at all locations simultaneously

.... with the flip of a switch.....  literally.....

Good point.Well,it was a fun dream for a minute.

Controlling the theaters.I was thinking,maybe something you could download,or something,that you could use at home.I'm a visionary.

I'm sure the studios will make the posters "available" for a small fee via iTunes. Some may even give them way on the movie's website. Who knows. After all it's free advertising for them.

sorry Anthony, you should expect my scenario to export itself to home viewing as well, seeing as most entertainment will be taking place here.

The Big Sleep US OS..with or without lipstick. And the GWTW US OS 1939 or Argentine

They seem to pop up very often. .

[Dread_Pirate_Mel]

The Astounding She Monster one sheet has been popping up a lot recently, six times in the last year at HA. Maybe not so rare after all.

There is a thread over at AVS Forums by people building digital poster light boxes out of 42 - 50 inch LED TVs.

After reading this I had one of those in the shower inspirations.  Not likely to act on it, so I will share.  Why not take one of the new 4k displays and bond a lenticular lens on it?  You would then be able to create a theater display which provided changeable and animated 3D images.  You could have the display change titles as you walked by, or use the same sort of changing scene effects you have now, except with video component added.  Of course you would need to create special content for that sort of screen as it would need to have interlaced stripes for the lenticular.  However, I think you could also write a handler routing that would do it for you and just feed in two image streams. 

I know I am getting geeky.  End result is a lenticular poster with video (and more).  It moves and pokes out at you without glasses.
