Ari, you crack me up. It's rare to see someone with such disdain for something, especially in this case, when you haven't even watched the movie that the poster is for. You must be on a different wavelength than most folks as Tarantino is considered by many to be one of the best, and Pulp Fiction being one of his best works. But that is one thing that's cool about you - it seems like you don't want to jump on the gravy train of the "latest and greatest" and buy into all the hype or whatever.
Personally, I think Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece, a timeless classic that will be held in high regard for many years to come. If the price increases, then great, if not then it really won't bother me. I've kept an eye on Ebay auctions and this is by far the most I've ever seen at any time for sale there, and not to toot my own horn, but the price I got mine was the cheapest I've seen in over 2 years, and I feel really fortunate to have been able to "strike while the iron is hot." The smoking thing is ironic for me, as some of the best posters (IMO) have (what I consider to be) sexy ladies smoking cigarettes and I'm not a big fan of tobacco to say the least. Hopefully a poster I recently scored will arrive today, that is another classic (IMO), and it also has a sexy female smoking. Pics hopefully later today.
