Re: [MOPO] Hell Drivers
It's a British classic of its kind. The UK special edition I have had also has pdfs of the pressbook, marketing materials and screenplay. The UK one sheet and/or quad arethe ones to get. The Australian daybill uses the international art (also to be found on the Argentinian one sheet). The Uk paper is, as Adrian says, absolute high water marks of the craft and art of British posters (or something like that, if perhaps not quite so hyperbolic!)

What is the limitation? These countries absolutely don't allow ANY tubes that are over 42 in length. So this means that we CAN'T send any linenbacked 3-sheets, French one-panels, six-sheets etc to those countries, UNLESS they are sent via UPS or Fed Ex and those companies charge outrageous amounts. This wouldn't be so bad, except that this includes Australia and other countries we ship to regularly, including: Brazil Chile China Israel Lebanon Mexico Singapore South Africa Taiwan United Arab Emirates Most other countries allow up to 60 for Priority Mail (Canada allows up to 79). So my question is, DO ANY OF YOU KNOW ANY AFFORDABLE WAY TO SHIP TUBES OVER 42 FROM THE U.S TO THESE COUNTRIES?

Re: [MOPO] STAR WARS STYLE A 1SH FIRSTOF THE FIRSTFIRST PRINTING 77/21-0 PMS COLOR VARIANT PRINTER'S PROOF
Fascinating, interesting and useful info, David. Thanks for posting it. Phil -Original Message- From: David Lieberman [mailto:cinemasterpie...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, July 26, 2013 09:04 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] STAR WARS STYLE A 1SH FIRST OF THE FIRST FIRST PRINTING 77/21-0 PMS COLOR VARIANT PRINTER'S PROOF Some new interesting information we have learned about the Star Wars Style A 77/21-0 Printer's Proofs. And for those of you who don't like the term Printer's Proof, save your complaining for another thread please. Our client who was there when they were actually printed refers to them as printer's proofs. STAR WARS STYLE A 1SH FIRST OF THE FIRST FIRST PRINTING 77/21-0 PMS COLOR VARIANT PRINTER'S PROOF First, a little background information: Gore Graphics was a printing company used by the movie studios and the National Screen Service (NSS) from the 1970's to the early 1990's. They printed original movie posters, press books, etc. Gore was acquired by another company in the 1990's. The Star Wars style A one sheet was officially printed at least 5 separate times at a few different authorized print shops during the first theatrical run of Star Wars in 1977. This is evidenced by the differences that can be seen on the bottom borders of the one sheets. It has been well established by other experts, dealers and collectors over the years that the one sheets with NSS number 77/21-0 were printed first before all others. In July 2013 we had an extensive conversation with Mark, a former employee of Gore Graphics in the 1970's and 80's. Like other former employees at Gore we have worked with over the years, Mark was allowed to take home posters from time to time. He has placed on consignment with us several Star Wars printer's proof one sheets. While meeting with Mark we became aware of a rare PMS color variant printer's proof for the Star Wars Style A one sheet first printing 77/21-0. Mark carefully explained about these PMS proofs being the first of the first Star Wars style A one sheets. CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. These are the primary colors used in printing. Varying the quantities of these colors creates an endless array of colors to print. PMS stands for Pantone Matching System (PMS). PMS is a simpler system for printers to use. PMS colors can streamline the process of printing and cut down on cost. There can be so much variation in color using CMYK that Pantone is sometimes used to help create consistent color. This way a printer can consistently print from job to job. These first of the first PMS proofs were printed before the CMYK proofs. Four colors (plates) were used for both the PMS and CMYK proofs. The PMS process produced a result that was unacceptable to those in charge (probably George Lucas) so Gore changed to a standard CMYK process for the subsequent print run which was finally deemed acceptable. All other print runs used this CMYK process (as far as we know) making the PMS color proofs much rarer than any CMYK proofs. The PMS proofs are significantly different. When comparing the CMYK and PMS proofs side by side, the easiest way to tell the difference is by looking at the color bars. The PMS proofs have orange included in the color bar, CMYK has yellow. -- Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com___How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing ListSend a message addressed to: listserv@listserv.american.eduIn the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-LThe author of this message is solely responsible for its content.

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?
The indespensable Belgian book on Belgian film posters,SOUVENIRS D'HOLLYWOOD (1986) shows the first release REBECCA as Belgian, and without the United Artists logo. It measures at 28x38cm. Germany invaded Belgium in May, 1940 and from then American films were banned from Belgium, although any date post-May 1940 that this was enacted is a bit fuzzy. What did happen with the German occupation was the reduction in size of Belgian posters to the small 28x38 cm size. The Cine Vog are indeed later re-releases, though using the same plates and with the U-A logo. Choko notes the first French release date of REBECCA as 1947. It's a reasonable assumption then that the Belgian release date is approximately the same. As for the Supermanyes, one of those operators. It's listed in Reproductons, too. Looking at his feedback, repro/replica posters is not his only area of expertise.

But Rich, the dates indicate screening either in May 44 or 50. May 44 is too early and referring to the calendar those dates don't work for those days again until 1950. And, they did continue using the Selznick International credit presumably past '46, it's there on the printings with the Cine Vog distribution credit. Could have blocked that off out of the artwork, as per RKO being blocked out of the Notorious Cine Vog RRs. I believe the other thing with it, is that the size coincides with the usual Cine Vog paper, 14 X 22 Whereas earlier, wartime paper shortage era Belgian posters, less paper used, and cropped closer to the print area, even if the art originates from the same plates. That said, I don't know the answer, it's weird. On 28 Jun 2013, at 22:43, Richard Halegua Comic Art wrote: Richard I would say this is the 1945 poster, though as we all know recycling posters for many years was reality. One key to the date is the Selznick International credit, which ceased usage by 1946 I think Heritage got this poster just right and has stated exactly what the poster is - first post-war release.

As I understand it, if Cine Vog distributed, then invariably it's RR. Can't recall having seen one that's known to be original release. Confused about this one, and where it fits into things, though clearly rarer than those printed with Cine Vog. http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=7040lotNo=84176#Photo Heritage describe as late 40's, first post-war Belgian. Main, or only difference appears to be lack of the Cine Vog credit, though colours possibly more garish. Screening info shows Mercredi 17 Mai and Jeudi 18 Mai. Checking the calendar, in that general time frame, Wednesday 17th/Thursday 18th only works for either 1944 and 1950. IMDB has Belgian release as Jan 1945, and since Belgium wasn't liberated until late '44, May '44 release seems impossible. Rarer than the usual, would that place it earlier than Cine Vog paper (usually described as being late 40s, though invariably with snipe/screening info torn off), even though it seems likely to have been used in 1950, or am I missing something?

I couldn't say anything about the REBECCA poster without have seen at least an image, but the 'light sheen' is not unusual with early post-war Belgian posters. I've handled original 1940s Belgians that were printed on the back of an old map and 100% original that showed a slightly 'shiny' surface. My guess is that this fades away pretty fast, so you won't commonly see this on posters that have exposed to the sun. Both print and paper quality on the 40s and 50s poster are quite different
Re: [MOPO] Who'dhave thought Liberace was gay22?=
This reminds me of when I was 13 years old, although not for the obvious reason. Back then, Errol Flynn was a hero to all us kids as many of his man in tights movies were on TV. One day when the gang were walking home from school, after Robin Hood had been on the night before and there was the usual what about the b it where talk, one of the kids told us his old man told him that Errol had a big one... but you can't see it in the tights, said another boy. Nah, he must strap it to his leg. But surely you'd still be able to see it in the tights was the consensus. This led to some contemplation. Then one bright spark said, nah, he sticks it up his, um, you know. Then another said, but, um, that means he's, you know. we all looked at each other in silence for several moments realising the full import of something none of us had ever thought about, but now did. He couldn't do it if he was, um, you know, cracking a fat. Further thoughtful looks. Then everybody raced home. 1963 was a great year.

I liked THE LAST SAMURAI a lot, too. Edward Zwick is a thoroughly under-rated director, although his films usually do okay.

Re: [MOPO] Roger Ebert Passes - side story.
Of course in Australia, we never got to enjoy SK. A great shame. We have Margaret and David, and fellow Australians will know about them and some may well agree with me that they are both well past their use-by date, especially Mr Stratton who appears to be stuck in the 60s. I have, however, enjoyed Roger Ebert's books of collected crits, and like the very best critics reviewed the film he saw, not what he wanted it to be and perhaps more importantly reviewed the film from basically the POV of the intended audience. And like the best critics, he was able to write spoiler-free reviews and still be meaningful about the film under review. It is such lazy film journalism/criticism to simply write spoilers ahead. Perhaps most telling of all was his ability to review a film that he didn't like and still be a good read... a less egocentric Kael, perhaps. His collection YOUR MOVIE SUCKS is a compendium of such reviews. In Australia film criticsim is going down the same lazy path it seems to be everywhere. If folks internationall want to read the single best film critic in Australia, then go to www.smh.com.au (the Sydney Morning Herald paper... the one that isn't owned by Murdoch) and search Paul Byrnes' reviews. RIP Roger and Gene. While Roger was still with us, so was Gene after a fashion.

One of their funniest happened on the Letterman show when they ignored Letterman and started arguing about Free Willy (Ebert liked it, Siskel didn't). Siskel said, I didn't like 'Free Willy' because who likes the whale? The whale isn't good looking enough on screen to care about. I once asked Spielberg about why he likes creatures in his films and he said it's because of their eyes. In 'Free Willy,' the whale's eyes are set so far apart that you can't see them. Ebert scoffed, This is Gene Siskel's criticism of 'Free Willy.' Gene doesn't like 'Free Willy' because you can't see both of the whale's eyes at the same time. Now that, folks, is rompin' stompin' film criticism. Siskel responded, Well, YOU obviously identify with Willy. I wonder WHY. Ebert shot back, Yes, and Gene Siskel will ALWAYS be bald. Letterman was in stitches and let them fight throughout their entire appearance. In the end, when it mattered most, they were pals, and Ebert repeatedly said after Siskel's deaththat he missed himevery day, that he would never have a smarter rival who was also a great friend. -d.

Re: [MOPO] OT - Why Steven Spielberg Is A Loser In Hollywood.
I thought ARGO was a very well directed, very well acted film... very
entertaining. Mila and I liked it a lot.
After the fact, when I learned just how much of the suspense and reality
was manufactured, it dropped considerably in my estimation.
Not sure why, just a sense of feeling cheated.
I thought it a shame that both the British and the New Zealanders are
denigrated The group actually stayed at the British Embassy before it was
decided to
move them to the Canadian consukate as it was geographically safer.
And that's not all. Wiki it for some even more revealing info.
I haven't seen LINCOLN yet but looking forward to it. No tall poppy syndrome
here with Spielberg's ability to make big films extremely well.
Back to ARGO... I kept thinking SHAPESPEARE IN LOVE.
As for the Oscars. Either I am just getting too old too care very much, but it
seems increasinglty irrelevant as each Oscar year goes by.

I responded to David K., but I'll go ahead a post to the entire list. I agree
with David and Franc on this one entirely. I'm not what anyone would
characterize as a huge
Spielberg fan, although I recognize his enormous accomplishments in purveying
popular films. In my book he has had several particularly satisfying films -
SCHINDLER'S LIST, E.T., and a few others. But LINCOLN is an extraordinary film
driven by an extraordinary script adapted from an extraordinary book with
extraordinary performances. Is that enough extraordinaries fer ya? I enjoyed
ARGO; it was entertaining. But clearly Spielberg and company were robbed. I
think the sorry decision to have 9 best picture nominations is going to produce
what I'll bet are (regrettably) plurality decisions like this one.
I thank Steven Spielberg for bringing together this great pool of talent and
leaving us with a picture that generations will enjoy again and again.

Yes, Joe's right about EMPIRE. I think if he made it today, Spielberg would hew closer to Ballard's book which is far more grim in its details of camp life.

What does Hollywood have against its most successful resident? by Richard Rushfield - BuzzFeed Staff Writer, February 24, 2013 Image by Mario Anzuoni / Reuters Tonight, Hollywood officially turned its back on its king. Again. The triumph of Argo in the Best Picture race, snatching victory from the jaws of Lincoln brings Steven Spielberg's win-loss record to a dismal one victory in seven at bats for entertainment's biggest prize. And tonight, not only did he lose out on the Best Picture prize that once seemed his, but the consolation prize of Best Director, the category in which Argo's Affleck was not even nominated, was also snatched away and handed to Life of Pi's Ang Lee. For a man who is widely considered Hollywood's godfather — who is in his unbelievable fifth decade at the top of the heap, who has reigned untouchable since before many of today's young directors were born — facing up to yet another defeat at the hands of his people starts to look like a clear and consistent rebuff.

I interviewed Ang Lee years ago when he was in Australia for one of his first films The publicist organiused a wonderful venue for the interview - dinner for three, Ang, me and the publicist on a catamaran under sail on Sydney harbour at sunset. Ang was unbelievability charming and agreat conversationalist and clearly extremely smart about films. While he had only a couple of low budget arthouse films under his belt, he was very clear that he wanted to make films in all genres - Westerns, martial arts, romance, period etc etc. He seems to have achived that and just goes from strength to strength.

I love the 1941 RKO book with the early announcement of CITIZEN KANE under the title JOHN CITIZEN USA. These are the real curiosites of film history and the studio books, generally I feel, are undervalued. Some of the art that appears in them is often superior to the final art used on posters. One would think that a lavish book just of trade ads would be a welcome addition to the printed histroy of film.

Re: [MOPO] Once again, in 2012, over HALF the items we auctioned sold for $14 or less!
We are just an all-purpose auction house who can auction ALL the items any consignor has, and we are the only major auction house who can do this with large collections. What Bruce said in this one line says it all. He is running a very successful all-purpose auction house, just like hundreds around the world in big and small towns and online. It's what eBay was before it disappeared up its own bum and wanted to be Amazon. The difference is, he regularly gets results that the majortiy of all-purpose auctions houses would never get for movie posters and memorabilia. I think both Franc and David are being over-analytical about the sales pitch simply because it covers the major appeal points for both sellers and buyers. At the end of the day, what does it matter? Material keeps rolling in and rolling out and there are plenty of people who appreciate the level of service on both sides.

And I can only reiterate that the vast majority of those 57,000 items came from people who got them for nothing, were offered next-to-nothing for them, and didn't want a new job selling them one by one. Very few were from collectors, except for those who simply wanted to get rid of all they had. Most took our advance and looked through their consignments before they sent them and only sent items that truly figured to sell for $15 or more. But we just got in a pallet each from three different consignors and those items will go in bulk lots and only a few in single sale, and a lot of the single sale items will auction for $14 or under. Consigning those items to us made the most sense to those people. Others, like you, would NEVER consign even one sub-$15 item, and that makes sense to you.

What Bruce said in this one line says it all. He is running a very successful all-purpose auction house, just like hundreds around the world in big and small towns and online. It's what eBay was before it disappeared up its own bum and wanted to be Amazon. The difference is, he regularly gets results that the majortiy of all-purpose auctions houses would never get for movie posters and memorabilia. I think both Franc and David are being over-analytical about the sales pitch simply because it covers the major appeal points for both sellers and buyers. At the end of the day, what does it matter?

I had original “Gone With The Wind†movie stills, my grandmothers’ Motion Picture Employee identification card, and many original photographs of movie stars from the 1930’s and 1940’s. The vast majority of these photographs had a personalized note or wishes in addition to the signature of the movie star.

I spoke to Mr. Doug Norwine late in the afternoon on 2\16\2006. He said the deadline to have my parasol included in their upcoming auction catalog was the very next day.

Re: [MOPO] question for dealers - Great Waltz 1938
Unless it was an Australian film, where 11x14s were produced locally - usualy using a photographic process and not a litho process - lobby cards came for their country of origin - the US and to a lesser extent the UK (where 11x14s were not usually produced) but where 8x10 front of house cards were.

The Great Waltz was originally released by Loews/MGM in 1938. This is less than 10 years after talkies became common. MGM and other studios often printed little bits of dialogue as captions on their Lobby Cards during this time period. You see that on both of the cards in question. This was a legacy from silent films where the audiences was accustomed to reading titles within the film and on Lobbies to explain the story. As the silent audience aged this dialogue placement disappeared, and is rarely seen on Lobbies after the early forties. The Great Waltz was not re-released until 1947, so I really think that these cards are contemporaneous with the original 1938 release. Whether the cards in question were printed in the US and then shipped to Australia or were printed in Australia for the film's original release is a much harder question to answer given the information that I have seen so far. - Original Message - From:Richard Halegua Comic Art To:MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Friday, October 12, 2012 9:09 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] Question For Dealers they aren't Other Company cards they have MGM on them re-issue cards are totally different At 08:58 PM 10/12/2012, Rix Posterz wrote: Hi, Ben.

Hey gang - * Caught Prometheus after reading way too many vague or implied references to Alien. Entering its third week, the theater was still 2/3rds full - with about half its patrons looking north of 40. Up front, I have to say that while this film is nowhere close to the 1979 classic, I still think Ridley Scott is the greatest living director - who has NEVER won an Oscar. * The link between Prometheus and Alien is NOT implied. It is SPECIFIC. Without giving away the ending, you walk out of the theater knowing both films are inextricably linked. There's nothing fuzzy about it. The story in Prometheus is set 77 years from now. The story in Alien happens well after that. * The first half of Prometheus - which suggests humans may have been created by aliens and placed on Earth for a purpose not yet known - is intriguing, introspective and cerebral - with stunning, big-screen visuals. It feels like a hybrid of Alien and 2001 - quietly creepy and cynical, complete with H.R. Giger-inspired art direction to create a sense of impending doom. The voyagers are interested in science and money - but the lead character wears a cross necklace and is interested in science AND the notion of a Creator. Meanwhile, Michael Fassbender plays the best robot since the Hal 2000 computer and has the most fascinating role in the picture. * The second half of Prometheus postpones further exploration of this where did we come from? lineage - (perhaps to be picked up in a sequel) - and goes off the rails a bit, turning into a conventional action-fest with the usual thrills and gore that made Prometheus - like Alien before it - R-rated. While it's not a classic like Alien, Ridley tops what happened to John Hurt in Alien - with a singularly original/intense gross-out scene in the second half involving Noomi Rapace that blew my mind. * Prometheus got mixed reviews from critics, hence my expectations were lowered. If you plan to see this film, keep 'em low. I'm not sure kids over 17 will like this picture because the action doesn't come until the second half - and its pretty tepid stuff compared to The Avengers. But for the rest of us who remember Alien (remember, Ridley never directed the sequels) - this is way better than the Lucas-directed Star Wars pre-quel, The Phantom Menace. * I walked in thinking I was going to see a pic that was a 6 on a 1-10 scale - and walked out feeling like it was an 8. Ridley Scott is 74 and he still has it. For technical and visual excellence, this picture gets an A+. The story gets an A in the first half and a C in the second half. But it does have an ending that worked well with me. -d.

The issue of signed posters came up a while back.
Think general consensus was that they're not particularly favoured.
I tend to think they look out of place on posters.I've got a few signed that
mean something to me, though perhaps not to others if it came to selling them.
I also recall David mentioning a Psycho poster signed by Janet Leigh to him.
I don't know how Star Wars collectors would feel about that poster signed by
Prowse, but don't imagine his sig is rare, does a lot of fairs I'd have thought.
Guinness for instance may be a different matter, though obviously that's not an
option.

I am viewing this from maybe a different point of view. have heard many stories about many people in this business...and Ken has been the subject of some of these stories. I will say that Ken has never done me a disfavour...if we couldn't reach a satisfactory conclusion on a deal then we left it. I am perhaps privy to some small amount of information bout Ken's personal life...many of you will know that I had a long term illness a few years ago, Ken sufered a similar fate though not personally. The circumstances put him in a situation that not many parents would want to be - losing your partner and having to bring your child up on your own. The fact that bankruptcy is in progress is not a very good situation to be in...I don't know the circumstances...actually I don't want to know. With the experience I have had those who face bankruptcy are usually in a corner with their back right against the wall...I also know that the US authorities require their taxes and their pound of flesh immediately if not sooner. For Ken to be losing his poster collection is quite unthinkable...circumstances must be quite desperate...we all know some of the deals that Ken has put together and some of us have heard about them with mouths watering. Until we hear all the facts we will not know the circumstances...as for trying to hang on to some of his posters...well I ask you all if you were in the same predicament, if you had to face the music and owned Invisible Man, Metropolis and more...wouldn't you try and keep one or two or hide them? What will be a shame is that if Grey and Heritage are under instruction to sell at a reasonable price the time and effort and probably money that Ken has put in could be dashed away. I suppose what I am getting at is those who through stones don't live in glass houses. Whatever Ken has done and if it is biting him on the ass then he is now having to face the consequences...I would say that I bet the majority of us on Mopo have pretty much bought or tried to from Curlykong on ebay and we have all at some time had a bargain or two.

Re: [MOPO] DS English Patient A OS?
I've seen it a few times, and seem to get more out of it each time. But no question, it's a polarising film - there is not much between the love it or hate it camps, those that find it a fascinating story of unconditional love and those that think it's a cold and sterile film.

I believe this is standard in the industry. Do you reimburse people when they ship items to you? Having never consigned anything to you I am unaware if you do this. Of course, using the figures you provided, even at the lowest end the numbers come out very favorable compared to your rates. For example you wrote: So this means that when we sold a $30 poster, we would pay MoviePosterExchange a $3 commission, PLUS the approximately $11 shipping. So we would pay $14 to sell a $30 poster. It gets even worse the lower the price goes. On a $20 poster we would pay $13, and on a $10 poster we would pay $12, for a net LOSS of $2 for every $10 poster we sold! The numbers you have given seem like a bargain compared to the consignor who sells a $30 poster on eMovieposter.com Where there they would pay a $12 commission and when you add in the approximately $11 shipping, they pay $23 to sell a $30 item on eMovieposter.com. I am sure it also gets worse as the price gets lower. The point being if you have a single $30 item to sell, there are probably better options than eMovieposter.com or MoviePosterExchange.com. And if you have a bunch of $30 items that you would like to dump (and don't mind if approximately half of them sell for $14 or less as you tell us every week), eMovieposter.com might be a good if not great option for you. MoviePosterExchange is probably not your best bet for this type of dumping, we understand and accept this. But, if you have higher quality items (either a single piece or a whole collection) and you have a fixed price in mind for them, there is not a seller that offers better terms than MoviePosterExchange.com Take for example an item like the Gimme Shelter one-sheet eMoviePoster.com is offering at a fixed price. If it sold on eMovieposter for the $264 asking price, you would pay a 28% commission, or almost $74 - which isn't horrible compared to other sites. But if you sold it on MoviePosterExchange.com for that price you would only pay a $26.40 commission and even if it cost you $11 to send it to us, your effective rate would still be about half that of eMovieposter.com And again, we do appreciate the offer you gave us to list items on our site - if you

Re: [MOPO] OT: Disney expects $120 million operating loss due to 'John Carter.'
ERB... rather sounds like something one should say, pardon me after So Disney, in their wisdom, thought that the word MARS was a no-no to box office due to a few previous flops with Mars in the title... it's the word, not that they were crap films. And so, they have a film named JOHN CARTER, like lots of people know who John Carter is, what he does and where he goes. I'd like to introduce our American friends to the term BOOFHEAD... that a short OO not a long O. I hate to say it, and I know some might doubt it, but it is clear that too many marketing people in the film industry these days are boofheads. Me, I can't wait to see JOHN CARTER OF MARS.

I wonder how much the negative buzz that preceded the film - turned out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy for some. It seems the industry loves a loser as much as it loves a winner. But there's no doubt that the women I know - had near zero interest to see this picture. In the industry trades, I kept reading about how the film ended up skewing toward older men, as in WAY older men, not just simply the over 25s. -d. TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 2011 Disney's $200 Million Charge 'John Carter' Proves a HugeLoss for Disney, Spurs New Focus on Cutting Costs By ERICA ORDEN FOR THE WALL STREET JOURNAL WaltDisney Co. expects to lose $200 million on its science-fiction epic JohnCarter, the company said on Monday, citing the costly movie's weakbox-office performance. As a result, Disney added, itsmovie studio is expected to report an operating loss of between $80 million and$120 million for its fiscal second quarter, ending March 31. Disney won'treport its earnings for the quarter until May, and rarely offers such advancefinancial guidance. The studio recorded an operatingprofit of $77 million during the same quarter last year—even though that periodincluded another big-budget flop, Mars Needs Moms. John Carter, which costmore than $250 million to make and an additional $100 million to market, hasbeen a box-office bomb, particularly in the U.S., where its cumulative domesticearnings total $53.2 million during its first 10 days in theaters. The moviehas fared somewhat better abroad, grossing $130.8 million outside the U.S. andCanada since its March 9 opening. But those results are disappointing for afilm that was one of the studio's most expensive in years. It certainly didn't meet theexpectations of what I wanted or what I needed, Disney Studios ChairmanRich Ross said in an interview last week. The film, about a Civil War veterantransported to a planet populated by alien creatures called Tharks, came inthird in the weekend's box-office ticket sales results, behind rivals 21Jump Street and Dr. Seuss' The Lorax. In addition to its significantexpense, John Carter suffered from an array of handicaps, includinga lack of recognizable stars—the film featured actors Taylor Kitsch and LynnCollins, neither of whom are household names—and a marketing campaign that waswidely considered indecipherable and visually unappealing. During Disney's recent shareholdersmeeting, Chief Financial Officer Jay Rasulo brushed aside an inquiry about themovie's results, saying that it's very early to talk about the financialimpact of that film. Partly in response to costlyprojects such as John Carter, Disney executives say they have takena tougher look at production budgets for its films, most notably for upcomingrelease The Lone Ranger, on which the studio halted production whenits projected costs had surpassed $260 million. In a statement on Monday, thecompany emphasized the prospects of its upcoming films. As we lookforward to the second half of the year, we are excited about the upcomingreleases of 'The Avengers' and 'Brave,' which we believe have tremendouspotential to drive value for the Studio and the rest of the company.

OH, but I didn't tell you that I take the good with the bad. (And the irony is
I was born in Japan but moved to the U.S. later, hence my appreciation for
America in ways indigenous Americans sometimes take for granted.) I can
understand about 30% of spoken Japanese (and can do a mean imitation of my
Mom), but can't speak nor read it. (However, I do know how to differentiate
written or spoken Japanese vs. Chinese, Korean or any other Asiatic language,
EASY.) The bad: Outside of the merchant class, I get treated by others as if
I'm an Aryan from the Far East, not flattering. During the 1980s, when the auto
industry was decimated by Japanese imports, we saw bumper stickers here that
said, I'D RATHER EAT SHIT THAN DRIVE A J** TRUCK. But then, we all look alike
hence there are times when I'm mistaken for Chinese or Vietnamese. Every once
in a while, someone will mutter the word, g**k, a word so funny that I can't
help but laugh when I hear it. Doesn't feel like an insult, I'm sorry. One
truism that does stick however, is we know how to make cars, but can't drive
worth a damn. I point to my family as exhibit A.

with. It takes a lot to piss me off...I have a very long fuse...but after one
transaction with him, I was ready to bitch-slap him upside his cadaverous,
pale, sucked-up face. He was the Phil Spector of poster collecting. He won't be
missed.

Hello all,
I just had a note from Robert Perry at Spotlight Displays that one of our own
has passed away. Susan Olsen was a very gifted restorer that I know many of you
had used for your collections as she would send the posters down to me for
framing afterwards.
Not sure if anyone else had posted something to the group about this, but I did
want to make you aware of it. She use to be a very active participant in our
conversations here on the MoPo group back in the day. Quite the fireball, she
always had very strong opinions and a quick wit. She made me laugh quite a few
times, raucously!! Sad news as she was only 52.

I don't understand why you wouldn't start them at a price you are not comfortable receiving. If you are not prepared to sell it for 40, don't list it for 40. You always take a risk of getting less than you want doing so. Anywho, most (if not all) ebay buyers these days snipe, so you are highly unlikely to see any action until you get to the last few seconds before they end. And us poster collecting vultures even wait until after the auction ends to say, see it didn't sell...why not sell to me for 30. So, it's a catch 22...if you end them early, you miss out the bids most likely to come right at the end of the auction. If you don't end them early, you risk em selling for below what you are willing to let them go for :( Why not list them at a fixed price, and provide the best offer option?

To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Hey guys... I've put several posters up on eBay which I KNOW are worth a bundle Although I know they are worth more, I started the bidding at about £40.00 GBP. Now they HAVE attracted attention. I have received several private messages asking to sell quick and end the auction (which I have respectfully declined) and the top two currently have a lot of watchers... however they have yet to attract a single bid. My worry is that they will end up going for WAY under their selling price due to the unpredictability of the eBay system. Although it would protect my valuable posters, I was told that putting reserves on posters can scare bidders away. I'm even tempted to cancel the auction at the weekend, rather than lose my valuable items to auction tactics. (I'm not being greedy... I just don't want to be ripped off) Please give me some advice on this, as I'm NOT a dealer, but times are hard and I need these posters to reach at least their average value!

Re: [MOPO] 4 extra folds? 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 extra undisclosed folds
As a dealer, I am also constantly buying and have been very active the last 6 months or so, buying quite literally many one-off posters from many different sellers, both on ebay and off 99% of the time, it's all satisfactory. There are the items that are far better than described, the ones that are accurately described, and the very occasional - maybe 1 in a 100 that has missed abit of reasonably vital condition info... but certainly not a deal breaker. 99% of the sellers/dealers are great at packing, and 1% - if that - approach packing as if they had no idea what happens to a parcel once it drops through the slot. There were a couple of near misses... one rolled poster was sent in a lightweight tube that was damned lucky not to be crushed. What was the point of giving teh guy a negative for crap packing or reducing his star rating and damaging what is otherwise a good rep? I just sent him a note to say that it might be time to look at the strength of his packing. Everything Rich said is spot on. It's just common sense.

I don't know who the seller is, but his response seemed to be very fair. Myself, I might have asked if the seller was going to be paying return postage for a mis-described item and I'm certain, with as reasonable as his email response was, that he would have agreed (or she). as to the comment Michael made: the fact that you said one hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing, and there is no one overseeing the process, doesn't exude confidence to buy expensive items from you. accurate descriptions is so very important. I think that's hitting someone below the belt Michael. In the case of myself and Anna, my secretary Anna comes in on her own time. She has a key and my alarm codes to go to the office when she wants to to do her work. Currently, because she lives on the far west side of town, and her son goes to a school at the far East side of town (by her choice) she comes to the office after she drops him off and works from morning until she needs to leave at about 2:30 to pick him up from school.

Often these are lesser titles with great stars, lesser images from great films, historic (or dated) titles have lost their appeal, or great artwork from obscure films or by great artists.

Re: [MOPO] He's a pretty good writer, too! [MOPO] WTB PRESSBOOKS: ADDED NOTE
Oh, I never connected the dots. Yes, take Joe's advice and go check out the aricles on blu-ray.com Phil - Original Message - From: Joseph Bonelli To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Saturday, May 07, 2011 11:36 AM Subject: Re: [MOPO] He's a pretty good writer, too! [MOPO] WTB PRESSBOOKS: ADDED NOTE HI from Joe B in NOLA I am a member of Blu-Ray.com and let me advise you to go there right away and locate MnTwister's articles-- easy to find. Check the News section. The two he's done so far -- on The Ten Commandments and Once Upon a Time in the West-- are absolutely fascinating. It's great to have such a film scholor on MOPO.

I am interested in many more titles than I listed in my post a few minutes ago. Please send lists, or lot lists with price. I do not re-sell, I am a pressbook addict who just loves them, have about 11,000 and always looking for more. Should I buy a lot, I would sell the ones I do not have. Any source for pressbooks would be great. There's a seller on Ebay who gets his pressbooks from auctions in bulk. One was a New York Auction, the other he says he now found a huge batch of 1930's in northern Nebraska, how does one find these lots? Unfortunately I am disabled and cannot go to many of the trade shows, but are there any that usually have alot of pressbooks? Maybe I could make it there. I am new to MOPO and the world of buying pressbooks outside of Ebay, so thanks for all your help and wisdom. I write a column for Blu-ray.com called The Silver Screen and while I don't get much pay for it, but I love doing it I use these. Here is a link to my first 2 columns there: Ten Commandmentshttp://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=6005 Once Upon a Time in the West: http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=6245 Please keep me in mind should you come across anything pressbook related such as lots, ect.
