Some sweet posters in this thread.

Anyone have good/bad experience with Allposters.com? Was thinking of ordering a couple from there and want to know what the quality is like.

They're decent.

I work in a frame shop, and people bring in stuff from there all the time. Just regular posters, like you'd expect.

I framed all mine myself. Either picked the frames at Ikea or Target for $20. The problem with any frames you buy is that some posters aren't 27" x 40", which is the dimension of a standard one sheet. Some are 1/2" either tall or wide. You just have to be creative on how you frame it. Like my Leon poster was short about 1/2" in width, so I just took some black electrician tape and placed that on the edges of the matte/background. You mostly run into these problems with posters before 1980 or from outside the US.

allposters has a good selection. it really comes down to are you buying art for looks or for value. All my posters are reprints, so they range from $10 to $25. I know some people that are really anal and only want original, or attempt to find lightbox prints (printed on gloss paper on both sides to allow light to pass through).

yeah im one of "those" guys, hahaha. All my movie posters are theatre originals, i refuse to buy reprints. This is my favorite original poster I have

and this one is second

This is not an official poster, but done by some graphic designer. Real simple, and awesome.

I'm sorry to bump this thread.

I just wanted to say I work at a movie theater. They have a giant bin filled with posters. Does anyone want the Coroline poster? I can grab it and mail it out for whomever really wants it.

Fuck, that is SO sexy. Ebaying now.

I said I was looking to sell mine! Goddamn it! TAKE MINE!

Always liked this one for Secretary. It's one of those small A4 posters that they have in Japan, can't remember their actual name. My GF has this one on her wall.

The poster for Let Me In (remake of Let The Right One In) has just been released, and although I have zero confidence in the film, the poster fucking rocks:

Favorite poster of all time.

Mine, too. I was surprised to see it take this many posts.

One of the greatest ad campaigns ever. The same guy behind it later came up with the Alien "In space, no one can hear you scream" trailer.

 

[Anth0ny]

I have this one, it's fucking beautiful:

Notice the lightsaber error:

I'm surprised at the lack of Star Wars in this thread.

 

[Cornballer]

Three that I have.

 

[Veidt]

Great suggestions. Off the top of my head, I'd have to go with Pulp Fiction as among the top.

I believe they're known as chirashi. They're fun to collect because of how inexpensive they can be and there's always some interesting, eye-catching designs you won't find in a standard poster-size.

 

[Dugungar]

YES.

Of course there are all the old classic Star Wars posters.

Don't know if these were posted elsewhere, but thought it'd be worth putting here, but these Star Wars posters, especially the ones by Olly Moss, are excellent.

The Empire Strikes Back is again my favorite.
