Is that a 30x40 Blade Runner?


Chris,
That is a Blade Runner 40x60

Jim - Beautiful! I acquired that Kiss of the Vampire German poster recently, it's a bit banged up but I'd love to get it on linen and in a frame, it's such a cool poster.

Silence - They look amazing! That Blade Runner confused me too, I was thinking the Kill Bill was a B2 for a moment.

Newest US poster rotation: EVIL BRAINS DOUBLE FEATURE! This would be a pretty mindblowing couple of flicks to see in a cinema...

Thanks!!! I had FIEND for quite a while but never displayed it, now it makes a perfect companion to my more recently acquired BRAIN...

They also make a nice companion to this Swedish INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN, although to be honest the alien's brain looks more like a cabbage or something (sorry about the glare)

Quite coincidentally, I just bought this "art toy", a Jumping Brain by Emilio Garcia. I guess I need to figure out a way to display all of them together!

Got a few more framed for one of the spare bedrooms, no space left in there now, may have to speak beg to the wife...nicely.



PS: Had to photoshop a couple of image together so they all could fit in the one picture...

Yeah thought of that, may indeed be the option, but I could only do it on the Jaws wall because the drawers and Sofa are staying where they are.

David - what are you using to attach the frames to the wall?  Picture frame wire and a screw or something else?

I ask as I think it's remarkable how uniformly level they all appear to be...

Just a basic picture hook to the wall, all measured from the ceiling to the same height from the ceiling and same height between hooks (48cm)

I use frames by Sue (http://www.hollywoodposterframes.com), she cuts every frame to the same height and then she adjusts the mat size to suit the poster and the frame. Her frames come pre-wired and the wire easily slides up and down so I can make minor adjustment while they are sitting on a hook; I use a level to ensure each frame is level as well as being level with its neighbour and finally blu-tac in one corner of the frame to ensure the frame doesn't move.

Yep, as you can read I just whack it up there and hope for the best.  :P

Thanks David - I am scared to ask how much she charges for shipping to Oz?  I know to Canada it's around $90 for a standard 1 sheeter frame!

I buy four at a time to save on the freight, I couldn't say for sure as I just get it as a single bill, somewhere around $250 (FedEx) at a guess
