Good main titles, though! The picture is not THAT bad. I think the book, which I read as a kid, created high expectations for the film. It's a got a great series of posters, too, if you like Saul Bass. We have several posters on this title. Kirby McDaniel www.movieart.net On Apr 9, 20

[MOPO] eBay Strikes Again

Apparently, eBay is about to introduce a new policy and it has already upset many buyers and sellers on the eBay discussion boards. The report on ninemsn says... "Under the changes, direct deposits, money orders and personal cheques will no longer be listed as a payment option after June 17."
