The answer seems obvious. There were so many wonderful movies this past year
that it was a necessity to greatly expand the number of nominees.

1939 the best year for movies? Fageddaboutit. It was 2008!

Re: [MOPO] AMPAS - 2010 Oscars expands to 10 Best Picture Nominees (from 5).

I'm sure in the forties there was no problem picking ten really good
films to be nominated as Best Picture. These days, I'm very hard pressed
to pick five, let alone ten. FRANC

82nd Academy AwardsR to Feature 
10 Best Picture Nominees 

Beverly Hills, CA - The 82nd Academy Awards, which will be presented on
March 7, 2010, will have 10 feature films vying in the Best Picture
category, Academy Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Sid Ganis
announced today (June 24) at a press conference in Beverly Hills.

"After more than six decades, the Academy is returning to some of its
earlier roots, when a wider field competed for the top award of the
year," said Ganis. "The final outcome, of course, will be the same - one
Best Picture winner - but the race to the finish line will feature 10,
not just five, great movies from 2009."

For more than a decade during the Academy's earlier years, the Best
Picture category welcomed more than five films; for nine years there
were 10 nominees. The 16th Academy Awards (1943) was the last year to
include a field of that size; "Casablanca" was named Best Picture. (In
1931/32, there were eight nominees and in 1934 and 1935 there were 12
nominees.)

Currently, the Academy is presenting a bicoastal screening series
showcasing the 10 Best Picture nominees of 1939, arguably one of
Hollywood's greatest film years. Best Picture nominees of that year
include such diverse classics as "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,"
"Stagecoach," "The Wizard of Oz" and Best Picture winner "Gone with the
Wind."

"Having 10 Best Picture nominees is going allow Academy voters to
recognize and include some of the fantastic movies that often show up in
the other Oscar categories, but have been squeezed out of the race for
the top prize," commented Ganis. "I can't wait to see what that list of
ten looks like when the nominees are announced in February."

The 82nd Academy Awards nominations will be announced on Tuesday,
February 2. The OscarR ceremony honoring films for 2009 will again take
place at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland CenterR in Hollywood,
and will be televised live by the ABC Television Network.

Oscar nominees for Best Picture also give a shot in the arm to those films 
still in release, and those that have already gone to DVD.

[MOPO] FA: I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING: To Bruce's Thursday folded one-sheet auctions closing in 12 hours, where 536 of them are $6 each or under!

*HAVE YOU YET DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS ONE AUCTION HOUSE WHERE QUALITY
ONE-SHEETS DON'T HAVE TO COST AN ARM AND A LEG? WHERE THE POSTERS ARE
HONESTLY GRADED AND YOU GET A FREE $20 BOOK WITH EVERY PURCHASE, AND YOU
DON'T GET HIT WITH AN OUTRAGEOUS $9 MINIMUM BUYERS PREMIUM? If you don't get
what I am trying to say, then let me tell what I am talking about!
*

*Beyond the fact that our posters all start at one dollar with no reserve or
buyers premiums (so they truly sell to the highest bidder), our
"supermarket" selection lets you save HUGE on shipping. Say you find five
one-sheets to buy from five separate eBay sellers. Even if they are fairly
priced and accurately described (two big IFs!), you still have to pay five
separate shipping charges, which will almost surely eat up any savings you
might have had. But in OUR auctions, you only pay a single U.S. shipping
charge, even if you buy 100 items, so there is a massive savings, and if you
can't find multiple items to bid on in our 999 listings, then maybe you
should be looking for a new hobby!
*

If you *ARE* an active collector, tonight's set of 999 auctions, which
consist of *999 folded one-sheets* are perfect for you! I just rambled
through the gallery of these at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/mode/0/14.html and looked at the 999
items I have closing tonight, Thursday night (which contains no items that
you need to be wealthy to consider bidding on!), and *I** REALLY COULD NOT
BELIEVE WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT, BECAUSE I SEE PRICES THAT REPRESENT REALLY
EXCELLENT VALUES ON QUALITY ITEMS, AND SOME BEING PRACTICALLY GIVEN AWAY! I
HAD TO PINCH MYSELF TO BE CERTAIN I WASN'T DREAMING!
*

With just 12 hours to go, there are a whopping 126 of the 999 items at the
opening bid of $1 each *(AND IN TODAY'S INFLATION-MAD WORLD, WITH $3 A
GALLON GAS, WHAT DOES $1 BUY YOU ANYWAY?))*, 256 are at $2 each or under,
439 are at $4 each or under, and 534 are at $6 each or under, and those
numbers truly include lots and lots of really decent titles that you would
expect to see at $10, $20 or much more on any dealer's website (and I
promise you that there are many excellent titles in this "bottom 534")!
 And almost *ALL* of the remaining 465 that are over *JUST* $6 each are at
really reasonable prices, with just 12 hours to go, and they include lots of
*REALLY* good titles, including *I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING (when did you EVER
see a one-sheet on this classic Powell/Pressburger title?), **ROMAN HOLIDAY*
*, **WILD BUNCH, FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE**, ITALIAN JOB, HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER
(and all the other great Eastwoods!),* and on and on! If you have been in
this hobby for any length of time, you *KNOW* these sorts of titles are the
most desired, and almost never sell for less than a nosebleed price
(expecially in those auctions with the "mysteriously maxed bids"), but you
may be able to get them for a somewhat reasonable price in the next 12+
hours!

Now I flat-out *REFUSE* to believe they can end at these prices (I think  it
is only the weak economy causing temporary weakness in some prices, and that
once the world stabilizes, people will look back at some current prices, and
say, "I shoulda bought more"), and I am sure many of these *folded
one-sheets* will get more bids, but if you have been thinking "Where are
there good deals in this hobby?", you need look no further than these
auctions!

Go to* http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/mode/0/14.html* to check them
out for yourself. *REMEMBER!* If you are a member of my weekly e-mail club
(see below), you only have to buy 15 of these *999 items* to get a set of
all 23 of my in-print books as a free bonus! (If you somehow aren't one of
the 5,400+ members, go to
*http://www.emovieposter.com/mail/clubsignup.php*and join right now!).
*GIVEN THAT SO MANY OF THESE ARE AT $3 OR LESS, YOU ARE VIRTUALLY ASSURED TO
BE ABLE TO GET 15 OF THEM OF YOUR CHOICE PLUS THE 23 $20 BOOKS FOR AROUND
$30, AND HOW SILLY IS THAT?

**And remember that the very best thing about these auctions is that there
are no reserves, mysterious maxed bids, or buyers premiums (so they will all
really sell at these low low prices) and THAT YOU ONLY PAY A SINGLE $9 U.S.
SHIPPING CHARGE NO MATTER HOW MANY OF THESE YOU BUY, SO YOU MAY WELL BUY 20
OR 30 OF THEM FOR JUST A DOLLAR OR TWO EACH (either solely those, or in
addition to more expensive items) AND YOU ONLY PAY A TOTAL OF $9 U.S.
SHIPPING FOR ALL OF THEM!*
*
*And I don't want to read even one of those "If I had any idea item X could
sell so low, so I didn't bid" kinds of posts come Wednesday morning!

*We have a great weekly e-mail club!*
Our club has 5,417 members, and many weeks we make great bonus offers to
club members who buy multiple items from us at auction! So if there is
*ANY*chance at all that you might end up buying a number of items from
us at
auction in future weeks, then you have a *LOT* of incentive to join the club
(if you are not already a member) because we will keep on giving away
excellent prize

[MOPO] URGENT CORRECTION! Re: FA: I KNOW WHERE I'M GOING: To Bruce's Thursday folded one-sheet auctions closing in 12 hours, where 536 of them are $6 each or under!

In the below message I sent to MoPo a while ago I referenced "*AN OUTRAGEOUS
$9 MINIMUM BUYERS PREMIUM*".

I have been informed from several trustworthy sources that this was a major
error, and that there are no auctions currently running with $9 minimum
buyers premiums. I should have referred to "*AN OUTRAGEOUS $14 MINIMUM
BUYERS PREMIUM*". I apologize to anyone inconvenied by this error on my
part.

Re: [MOPO] AMPAS - 2010 Oscars expands to 10 Best Picture Nominees (from 5).

2009-06-25 Thread Kirby McDaniel

I agree with Russ here.  At first I was taken back by the idea, but I  
think in this category, which is voted on by all the members
of the academy, doing this presents the opportunity to spotlight five  
more good films.   It's one thing to say skeptically, were there  
really TEN good films last year etc, but we all know that there are  
good movies that get overlooked.  I think it's a good move.  I'll be  
interested to see how they

handle the TV presentation.

82nd Academy Awards® to Feature
10 Best Picture Nominees

Beverly Hills, CA — The 82nd Academy Awards, which will be presented  
on March 7, 2010, will have 10 feature films vying in the Best  
Picture category, Academy Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President  
Sid Ganis announced today (June 24) at a press conference in Beverly  
Hills.


“After more than six decades, the Academy is returning to some of  
its earlier roots, when a wider field competed for the top award of  
the year,” said Ganis. “The final outcome, of course, will be the  
same – one Best Picture winner – but the race to the finish line  
will feature 10, not just five, great movies from 2009.”


For more than a decade during the Academy’s earlier years, the Best  
Picture category welcomed more than five films; for nine years there  
were 10 nominees. The 16th Academy Awards (1943) was the last year  
to include a field of that size; “Casablanca” was named Best  
Picture. (In 1931/32, there were eight nominees and in 1934 and 1935  
there were 12 nominees.)


Currently, the Academy is presenting a bicoastal screening series  
showcasing the 10 Best Picture nominees of 1939, arguably one of  
Hollywood’s greatest film years. Best Picture nominees of that year  
include such diverse classics as “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,”  
“Stagecoach,” “The Wizard of Oz” and Best Picture winner “Gone with  
the Wind.”


“Having 10 Best Picture nominees is going allow Academy voters to  
recognize and include some of the fantastic movies that often show  
up in the other Oscar categories, but have been squeezed out of the  
race for the top prize,” commented Ganis. “I can’t wait to see what  
that list of ten looks like when the nominees are announced in  
February.”


The 82nd Academy Awards nominations will be announced on Tuesday,  
February 2. The Oscar® ceremony honoring films for 2009 will again  
take place at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center® in  
Hollywood, and will be televised live by the ABC Television Network.

The old John Kisch reportage showed five one sheets of I KNOW WHERE

This venerable title, competing as my favorite Powell-Pressburger with  
BLACK NARCISSUS, gets the usual pulpy treatment by Universal.  I'm sure
the British poster is better - gotta be - and much more expensive.   
The use of the tartan colors red and green is a thoughtful touch by the

Universal crew!

10 Best Picture Nominees

Beverly Hills, CA - The 82nd Academy Awards, which will be presented on

category, Academy Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Sid Ganis

Re: [MOPO] AMPAS - 2010 Oscars expands to 10 Best Picture Nominees (from 5).

If they want to be innovative, maybe they could use the extra five slots to
showcase lower budget worthy "little" movies. Or have 5 picks for "over $100
million budget" and 5 for "under $100 million budget"

I just hope Simon Cowell doesn't express his views of the nominees on the
show.

If they want to be innovative, maybe they could use the extra five slots
to showcase lower budget worthy "little" movies. Or have 5 picks for
"over $100 million budget" and 5 for "under $100 million budget"

I just hope Simon Cowell doesn't express his views of the nominees on
the show.

I agree with Russ here.  At first I was taken back by the idea, but I
think in this category, which is voted on by all the members 
of the academy, doing this presents the opportunity to spotlight five
more good films.   It's one thing to say skeptically, were there really

The answer seems obvious. There were so many wonderful movies this past

10 Best Picture Nominees

Beverly Hills, CA - The 82nd Academy Awards, which will be presented on
March 7, 2010, will have 10 feature films vying in the Best Picture
category, Academy Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Sid Ganis
announced today (June 24) at a press conference in Beverly Hills.

"After more than six decades, the Academy is returning to some of its

Best Picture winner - but the race to the finish line will feature 10,
not just five, great movies from 2009."

For more than a decade during the Academy's earlier years, the Best
Picture category welcomed more than five films; for nine years there
were 10 nominees. The 16th Academy Awards (1943) was the last year to
include a field of that size; "Casablanca" was named Best Picture. (In

That's your opinion, Russ, and you are entitled.
I had and have no problem with the five pictures voted on by the nominating 
committee.
Though I like and admire most of the films you named, I wouldn't call them 
"better" than 3 of the 5 nominees, though certainly some of them are 
nomination-worthy, no question.
 
I believe that once the Academy gets through next season-- with huge egg on 
their collective faces when the non-win of "Transformers 2" causes riots on the 
red carpet.well, we'll see!!

The best picture category is in fact open to films from around the world as 
long as they play for a week in LA.  In my opinion this opens up the category 
to much better films that tend to fall through the cracks.  For instance the 
best picture nominees from 2008 probably would have included worthy films like 
The Dark Knight, The Wrestler, Iron Man, Wall-E and may have even included some 
exceptional films like Happy-Go-Lucky, In Bruges, Man on Wire, Gomorrah, Frozen 
River and Burn After Reading.  There are 10 films right there that were better than at least 3 of the 5 that were nominated.

10 Best Picture Nominees
Beverly Hills, CA — The 82nd Academy Awards, which will be presented on March 
7, 2010, will have 10 feature films vying in the Best Picture category, Academy 
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Sid Ganis announced today (June 24) 
at a press conference in Beverly Hills.
 
“After more than six decades, the Academy is returning to some of its earlier

“The final outcome, of course, will be the same – one Best Picture winner – but

For more than a decade during the Academy’s earlier years, the Best Picture 
category welcomed more than five films; for nine years there were 10 nominees. 
The 16th Academy Awards (1943) was the last year to include a field of that 
size; “Casablanca” was named Best Picture. (In 1931/32, there were eight 
nominees and in 1934 and 1935 there were 12 nominees.)
 
Currently, the Academy is presenting a bicoastal screening series showcasing 
the 10 Best Picture nominees of 1939, arguably one of Hollywood’s greatest film 
years. Best Picture nominees of that year include such diverse classics as “Mr. 
Smith Goes to Washington,” “Stagecoach,” “The Wizard of Oz” and Best Picture 
winner “Gone with the Wind.”
 
“Having 10 Best Picture nominees is going allow Academy voters to recognize and 
include some of the fantastic movies that often show up in the other Oscar 
categories, but have been squeezed out of the race for the top prize,” 
commented Ganis. “I can’t wait to see what that list of ten looks like when the 
nominees are announced in February.”
 
The 82nd Academy Awards nominations will be announced on Tuesday, February 2. 
The Oscar® ceremony honoring films for 2009 will again take place at the Kodak 
Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center® in Hollywood, and will be televised 
live by the ABC Television Network.

Her famous poster was made in OHIO by Proarts Of Medina Ohio..


I met the publisher at a trade show at Javitts in NYC... I exhibited at 
the national staionary show


and so did Ted Trikelis  of Pro Arts poster.. From what I remeber the 
Farrah poster was the worlds all time best


selling poster selling millions upon millions and rejuvenated collecting 
of Posters from the commercial sector.


I also met Bernie Swatz that had founded Personality posters in the 
1960s/// he did the faous Frank Zappa on Toilet, the  Raquel Welsh fom 
BC , all the stooges and repos of Black and whites..


When I think back I was lucky to meet these guys as they were the 
Kings of Posters...


when  I would order from Personality in NYC they wouldnt allow just 
anyone to order.it was funny


people would tell me they wouldnt let them buy

There has been some great commercial poster companys from Europe and all 
over.. The germans do a great job and use good paper stocks.. same with 
Japan printing and  hong kong and Italy

arti Ricordi did some cool art,,

My friend worked for a day with Gary Bernstein in Hollywood he sot Lee

was a kind soul.

[MOPO] Michael Jackson

2009-06-25 Thread Tom A. Pennock

This reminds me of the day Elvis died on August 16th, 1977. It  will 
definitely be an event in the way it is covered by the news media.  There 
certainly is a lot more technology electronically wise for mass coverage.  It 
will 
be interesting to see how this coverage develops in today's modern world  
media wise.

[MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON

2009-06-25 Thread McDaniel Kirby


Michael once left a message on the answering machine at MovieArt
asking to purchase a six-sheet we had.  I was out to dinner, so I never
spoke with him.

Arguably the biggest living (now not) pop star in the world.  In solo
acts, only Elvis exceeds him in fame, I would think.  But maybe not,
because the market was so much larger in Michael Jackson's era.

The Beatles individually, too.

Will Paul finally get the rights to the Beatles music, now?
Another chapter will follow in his so-far elusive attempt to
regain Beatles' publishing.

Re: [MOPO] AW: [MOPO] With his credentials, he should have been a Priest

2009-06-25 Thread Richard Evans


Was it such a big surprise?
Though he was particularly quick off the mark on this one.
And well, admittedly, those crappy Taiwanese badges are even less  
respectful than Mexican lobby cards.

I mean, doesn't he know that's what we expect him to do?
Didn't seem like such a big deal to me, only to be expected.

Re: [MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON

He bought many items from me (mostly Shirley Temple and other child
stars) through his right-hand man, David Guest (who was a greasy-haired
weirdo, who re-created himself years later as Mr. Liza Minelli, short-haired
weirdo).

Earlier, in the late 1980s, he (Michael) was at a Doug Wright show I was
selling at, wearing wacky make-up that made him look deformed (so no one
would recognize him), and he asked me in a weird whisper if I had any
Shirley Temple items, and I told him I had great ones at home, and gave him
my name and number, but he never followed up.

Re: [MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON

2009-06-25 Thread CK MacLeod

My family had a home near the Jacksons' Encino house during the Beat It! and
Thriller days.  It was near what once upon a time was Clark Gable's estate,
on Hayvenhurst a block or so south of Ventura Blvd if you know the area at
all.  All day long there would be people gathered just staring at the gate,
day after day.  Nothing else to see - just a narrow driveway, hedges, and a
big iron gate with a spikey top.  One day as we were driving by, it happened
to open and a burnt orange-colored (that's how I remember it) limo emerged:
My family and I made a pretend big deal out of it - as though we were just
as impressed as the shouting and waving mooks on the street.  Maybe we were,
or at least I was on some level, since it's 25 years later and I still
remember the day.

Re: [MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON

2009-06-25 Thread Susan Heim


Sad day. The guy was so talented. He collected many things. We use to run movie 
poster and paper memorabila show here in L.A. that he would attend. This was 
back in the early 80's. He use to buy all kinds of interesting things and loved 
movie posters. I had a friend who family owned a shop on Hollywood Blvd. called 
Book City and he was in there regularly in the late 70's and early 80's. He 
would hang there for hours going through old National Geographic magazines. He 
was a very quiet person, obviously pretty shy. I was looking forward to hearing 
new music from him and hopefully a successful concert tour that would get his 
life back on track. So sad to hear the news..and as for Mr. Mexican Lobby 
card...your "shock" posts have long worn off. Hiding in the annonimity of the 
internet with bad behavior is extremely cowardly!!  Do you have nothing 
positive to contribute from your sorry situation?

Re: [MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON



I remember being at a movie poster show in a Hollywood hotel (not  the 
Roosevelt) about 25 years ago (long before the Courts Shows started)---and  
suddenly there where whispers among the crowd that Michael Jackson was  there.  
After a few minutes, he walked by me, wearing a fedora pulled down  over his 
face and his trademark surgical mask.  Surprisingly, no one  appeared to 
bother him at all (although there was no hiding the fact that he was  Michael 
Jackson).
  He seemed to be a truly troubled spirit, but arguably the greatest  
performer in all of our lifetimes. I've never been a huge fan of his, but I'd  
give him the nod over Elvis.  Just think of all the millions of fans around  
the world who are deeply affected by this tremendous loss. I don't think any  
other entertainer will ever fill the void---as strange at times as it may 
have  been.  Sure, he had flaws--gigantic at times--- but his talent and  
musical vision will always be remembered with respect and fondness,  
   I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but one of our  fellow 
movie poster dealers/collectors, Deke Richards, co-wrote probably a dozen  
Jackson 5 songs, including some monster hits (A.B.C. is just one that comes to  
mind).  He knew Michael before all the changes began---to his face and  
otherwise...

[MOPO] Stars in threes curse.....

2009-06-25 Thread Richard Auras

Wow...   That bit about stars dying in threes has hit again.  At first I 
thought this was number two and someone else will be coming soon but then was 
reminded by my wife about Ed McMahon.  That curse struck pretty close 
together.

Re: [MOPO] Stars in threes curse.....

I never understood this comes in three curse. You can always count any
event you want (death, birth, pregnancy etc.) in multiples of 3,4 or 23.
I think it's just silly.  
 
As for the Mexican lobby card king, I don't agree at all with what he
said. It was tacky and tasteless but I disagree even more with those who
think censorship is the way to go. We live in America, not Iran. If you
feel strongly about it, don't bother opening this guy's e-mails.

Is that absolutely necessary?
Has he really been doing a such roaring trade in Mexican lobby cards  
of the freshly dead on here?
Are people now wrestling with their consciences to resist the  
temptation of the Taiwanese Michael Jackson badges?

I don't know, but I have my doubts.

another, but this guy is a "grand mol" vulture--obviously with shame or common  
sense whatsoever.  Recently, a photo of him was included on a MoPo  
post.You would think ( or hope) by this semi-advanced ago that he would have a  
wee 
bit of insight into the obvious predetory nature of his post.

Re: [MOPO] MICHAEL JACKSON

nteretseing point about Deke Richards.. I did not know this however that 
was a great great song
and I like the breaks in it and the harmonic guitar and structure... 
Deke should speak up..


I never sold to Jackson that I know of except one time a Guy called that 
seemed like him and asked about this armour I sold.. he giggled... that 
why i thought it may be him...


and some Guy in Toledo worked for him and we were told not to ask 
anything about hil as he wouldnt speak.


In my case in the 80s I was in NYC and brought home stuff like posters 
as street vendors werer selling it... this was like 83?  I cant 
remember  well we sold 30,000 worth o posters and gloves and all in 
a few weeks
and had to hire two off duty Toledo police to allow 20 people at a time 
in the 700 sq foot shop'
It was like selling fircrackers as people would take everything we had 
button, tshirts and poster and gloves and all.  strngely I could have 
sol 4 x whate we did... But it was differant from anything I ever 
experianced..
so I couldnt belive it... I received a Roll of 300 posters and the 
supplier sent 300 more COD and I accepted sold tehm all Out in a matter 
of days... who could gage it?The kids had BIG smiles and were 
danceing in the shop..


after the sale we erected a Fence in our backyard the stockade kind... I 
would say " Thats the fence that Michael Jackson built" as we used some 
of the funds to pay for the 2000.00 fence


As far as the comments by fellow Moper that posts about the dead. to 
me he serves a purpose and should be considered as tthat he must have 
had a trauma in his life... perhaps someon he loved or admired passed 
away and it hurt him to the point of disrespecting other as he felt 
cheated...so In a way each time he comment he feels he can create a 
balance for his hurt by hurting others... It seems to me these people 
actually are crying out... because he has tryed to intetionally 
humiliate others for his owm amusement.. instead of seeing his 
depravity... look at the sadness this man must harbor. I personally 
feel sorrow for these people  and hope they can find redeemption, and 
peace because to harm otehers for thrills  or sell to capitalize on the 
tragic part
jsut helps no person.. especially when you lose a long time friend or 
family member or pet or anyone you have respected.
wehether we liked Jackson or whatever all humans should be given some 
sort of  forgiveness .. although
I agree its very hard if not the hardest thing to do .. ever.. 
especially when Innocence is there or older weaker people.. or like Neda 
the Iranian woman who lost her life for sake of peace///
The  people that control, abuse , and use others and discredit, 
humiliate for the sole purpose of hate and
to scoff at those that are also troubled is just plain without any 
purpose  and shows me that they are
only seeking reaction in the only way they can get the attention by 
causeing hurt or suffering

Its no accomplishment and will not be remembered in peoples hearts
The only way I see for this individual to find peace is to  stop and 
consider his own Family and if people
made fun of him when his loved ones passed.. perhaps then he will 
understand why its not humorous and why when people are in pain or 
suffering loss .. we are best to be supportive , and respectfull to others


For fellow Mopoers I feel your anger and hurt and discust...  however 
consider that the person that
would conduct themselves is not healthy in spiit and we should pray that 
they get better.
and  not have to suffer the same things tehy have been suggesting about 
others.


The person may feel a need to have a cathartic release to quench thier 
own personal sadness.
To hear that Micael loved movie stuff shows he would have enjoyed the 
people of Mopo
and just as we respect one another we should respect  the passing of Ed, 
Farrah and Michael

as thier Familys are also suffing at momnet
peace

fellow movie poster dealers/collectors, Deke Richards, co-wrote  
probably a dozen Jackson 5 songs, including some monster hits  
(A.B.C. is just one that comes to mind).  He knew Michael before  
all the changes began---to his face and otherwise...

[MOPO] A most illustrative article on the Academy's move

Hi from Joe B in NOLA
 
This article illustrates, both in content and style, exactly where this rule 
change by the Academy  going to take it in short order.
 
http://www.movieline.com/2009/06/who-stands-to-benefit-the-most-from-oscars-best-picture-bombshell.php
 
Some of the comments are priceless.  See the guy who believes that there could 
be two BPic categories-- one for the "artsy crap" and one for the 
"AG--'Actually Good' films-- like the action filled ones.  
Note another that suggests that the Academy pattern the Oscars like the Golden 
Globes!!
Arghh!
 
I guess we'll see.  Come February. Hm..

how about they do it like this

5 Best Films that Men Like
5 Best Films that Women like
5 best Films that those with an IQ under 90 like
5 Best films with the most blood and guts
5 Best films voted by 8 year olds
5 Films that made the most money.. but really sucked (in this
category, George Lucas can win for all three of the last Star Wars

[MOPO] OT OKAY HOW MUCH TIME IS APPROPRIATE?

2009-06-25 Thread Flixspix

 
GUYS,
I agree with Franc 101% in his comment below.Yes Rod was ghoulish, 
distasteful and almost shocking in  posting such memorabilia mere hours after 
Jackson dying.  (Others  may have felt it was scalding black humor  especially 
given how  the Mexican Bordertown the quality of his buttons) But banning 
an  individual for poor judgement and behavior only creates our own version 
of  the OX BOW INCIDENT.   And truly how much time IS  appropriate before 
posting memorabilia of a dead celebrity?   I  presently have a couple of rolled 
Farrah Fawcett  posters from the  1970's  that came with a collection of 
70's  posters?   I  just got  through shooting them and then she rudely up and 
 died.   Now I ask,  should I wait a day,  a week,  a  month? Did 
everyone pull listings off Ebay of their JAWS  posters when Roy Scheider died?  
 
Who here didn't snicker at a "what  wood doesn't float some 30 years ago?"  
Or when one found out Ronald  Reagan died who among us didn't  wonder out 
loud  "How could you  tell?"...never mind the infamous  "Teddy I think

Re: [MOPO] OT OKAY HOW MUCH TIME IS APPROPRIATE?

2009-06-25 Thread Phil Edwards

It's easy. You don't want to read someone's posts, just use the block sender 
function that can be found on most mail programmes.

Someone, years ago, on MOPO sent me an email and told me they were doing just 
that because of something I said that offended them.

For all I know, most of MOPO might block my email messages via MOPO (or 
anywhere else for that matter).

It's called "self censorship" if you like. Like the delete key or the 
"off"switch for other media/use. Or take note of discretionary advice on film 
ratings, whatever.

Take it from someone who used to live under one of the most draconian of 
censorship regimes (political and all the arts) and yes, I mean Australia 
censorship and banning is NOT the way to go - as we are learning yet again, 
under what is supposed to be an "enlightened" "liberal" centre-Left government.

Scarey times.

Re: [MOPO] Stars in threes curse.....

2009-06-25 Thread Brek Anderson



I don't buy the comes in three deal either. I think we would be at 5 anyway 
because M. Jackson should count as at least three himself-The Good (Great), The 
Bad (Tragic), and The Ugly (Unfortunate). I can remember loving to watch the 
Jackson 5 on T.V. singing A.B.C. I can remember that almost as well as watching 
the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. And I don't remember much. I find it 

hard to stop watching the coverage tonight. 



It would have been fun if musicals would have been popular in the '70s and 
Michael would have made one or two movies. I said fun not great, but who knows? 



As far as the card king, please no Good, Bad, and the Ugly Mexican Lobbies for 
at least 2 weeks.

in my opinion is just tacky... In my case just before mr Jackson died 
today.. I spoke to a magazine dealer
that I wanted to buy monster mags , beatles and  he said I have some 
Jacksons stuff well years ago he offered them and I have soem " the 
jackson story" however I told him today I tried to sell some to the 
Motown museum in detroit and they didn sell.  yet 1 hour later Michael 
died.. and I thought.. well now

they would sell... there were pallet full..   will I sell them

NO.. why???  - respectwhen Linwood Dunn died I knew his 
Daughter and knew I could get all kinds of stuff includeing the fire 
engine model from  Its a mad mad mad mad world..
and so I didnt call another dealer bought it. same with 
Carson stuff and I happen to have a
standee of Ed Mcmahon ive had years _ NOT for sale If I 
had farrah... and earlie r I was sent a email with all the farrah 
posters..


NOPE-  After they have been gone awhile its ok in my opinion.. But there 
needs to be a period of allowing respect to rule.. saem withe the 
Family when people die they need time as they are vulnerable because 
they have had loss... these dealers that go in while the family is upset 
are not being honest or fair in my opinion.


However each dealer has there own set of standars and should not 
consider mine as a Rule of thumb.


Ive lost many many many deals because I would not inquier and others did.

as far as joking about death.. My mom and I and brother made all kinds 
of death Jokes as she was dieing in a Hospise and found it a great 
experiance to be holding her hand as she took her last breath...


I was very lucky to have that experiance... so yes Humor helps when

Perhaps some of you are right about allowing people on MOPO the freedom to be 
complete idiots.

I probably acted too hastily in my seconding Rod be removed from MOPO as this 
was the second post of his this week which I found offensive, ignorant and 
showed a total lack of humanity.

In the future I may say or do something stupendously grotesque as well. I hope 
you will forgive me in advance of that day.

Till then I'll be curious as hell to see where the line is finally drawn with 
this bozo.

  Ive lost many many many deals because I would not inquier and others did.

  as far as joking about death.. My mom and I and brother made all kinds of 
death Jokes as she was dieing in a Hospise and found it a great experiance to 
be holding her hand as she took her last breath...

  I was very lucky to have that experiance... so yes Humor helps when times are 
stressed and sad...

GUYS,
I agree with Franc 101% in his comment below.   Yes Rod was ghoulish, 
distasteful and almost shocking in posting such memorabilia mere hours after 
Jackson dying.  (Others may have felt it was scalding black humor  especially 
given how the Mexican Bordertown the quality of his buttons) But banning an 
individual for poor judgement and behavior only creates our own version of the 
OX BOW INCIDENT.   And truly how much time IS appropriate before posting 
memorabilia of a dead celebrity?   I presently have a couple of rolled Farrah 
Fawcett  posters from the 1970's  that came with a collection of 70's  posters? 
  I just got  through shooting them and then she rudely up and died.   Now I 
ask,  should I wait a day,  a week,  a month? Did everyone pull listings 
off Ebay of their JAWS posters when Roy Scheider died?   Who here didn't 
snicker at a "what wood doesn't float some 30 years ago?"  Or when one found 
out Ronald Reagan died who among us didn't  wonder out loud  "How could you 
tell?"...never mind the infamous  "Teddy I think I'm 
pregnant..We'll  we'll cross that bridge when we get there or finally 
lighting a match stick then zig-zagging in front of you ...LOOK RICHARD PRYOR 
ON FIRE.   Hell!  Mr. Pryor himself LOVED that joke and used it to brilliant 
effect in his post-freebase concerts.  

No, outlawing poor taste on MOPO is wrong because then only outlaws will 
have poor taste  or taste bad.good grief I sound like GW43.

  As for the Mexican lobby card king, I don't agree at all with what he 
said. It was tacky and tasteless but I disagree even more with those who think 
censorship is the way to go. We live in America, not Iran. If you feel strongly

[MOPO] Wake Up, Dummies

2009-06-25 Thread rodxmorgan

We are all in a business which venerates Exploitation.  Shamelessly.

 

These so called celebrities are just product---grist for the
mill.  Nothing more.  Their personal lives attest to the fact that
they are not saints.

 

Yank all the exploitive titles out of your inventories, and
you’ll find yourself standing on a street corner trying to hawk “Mother Carey’s
Chickens”.  (Which is probably even exploiting
the poultry industry.  But, that’s
another story.)

 

You want to incite a pogrom? 
Go after the ninety-nine cent whores. 
(Yes, you all know who you are.) 
In the name of some obscure profit motive, these pimps are the ones who
are ruining the hobby, the business, the industry, the mystique.  Now the whole 
world knows that we are merely selling
toilet paper to collector/junkies.  And
values continue to plummet.

 

The diamond industry, when faced with declining interest and
prices---tightened up supply, and raised prices.  As not to let on that they 
were merely
selling hard rocks to sentimental fools.

 

BTW:  I will match my
ROI with my toilet paper with anyone else in the industry.

 

150,000 vintage lobbys for free.  Sales to date:  $250k. 
3-5% of the stock has been diminished, without discounting a single
sale;  and without depleting the gold and
platinum titles.

 

Jerks!
