This was, I think, an inevitable progression. The question is do the movie
studios make enough from poster sales/licensing to continue to produce
paper ones? Anyway, how collectable are the majority of new movie posters
now?

I don’t think that spells the end of collecting, however.  People collect buggy

Digitally, of course.
The folks in the home theater forums are busy designing 42" LED TVs to be
displayed in portrait mode, with surrounding frames and custom software.  

Here is a nice pointer to a thread on some of the custom software running
this stuff.

I don’t think it spells the end of the production of paper posters either. We 
may see a diminution of physical posters at some point, but I suspect digital 
posters will just be one more tool in the marketing bag, even if it becomes the 
more dominant one. The Kindle Fires of the world may continue to make physical 
books less attractive commercially, yet they will probably then grow as a niche 
business in the future

 

If I am wrong, at least we won’t have to worry about any future Kerry Haggard 
digital poster fraud.

Think of the hacking of the future!  Sony is only the tip of the iceberg. Now a 
studio's movie campaign can be destroyed by hackers. 

Not sure how this plays out for collecting. I think when people stop going to 
movies then it'll be tough. 

I'd often said that I was collecting art because the art on many of these 
posters is second to none. Perhaps it will turn into the same as collecting  
advertising art. Those are fetching higher prices especially the French ones. 

Toochis 

Fun fact: If removed from the stress of the modern world, the average human 
would sleep about 10 hours a day.

Re: [MOPO] WE HAVE SEEN THE WRITING ON THE WALL....

2015-02-26 Thread Richard C Evans
But how, (as in the case of Prometheus, and others), could the studio release a 
teaser poster design online, exploiting interest in social media by purporting 
it to be a genuine poster, if everyone knew there were no genuine posters? 

Though I think the issue is probably less to do with outdoor sites becoming 
digitised, but that the action is increasingly online in banners, social media 
and the like.

It's probably not going to make sense in the future to have outdoor advertising 
telling people to get back to their computer, (or pull it out of their pocket) 
to watch a particular movie.

This is becoming the main way to advertise movies - it started about two years 
ago - frankly I am surprised we still have posters in movie theatres but I 
guess like anything it takes time to replace all the poster display screens - 
the movie poster will be a thing of the past soon.

Maybe in the US, but it will take many years to die out worldwide.

They haven't produced a US lobby card set in 20 years now, but it is easy
to get international sets for popular current movies.
