Recently I had a foreign buyer contact me while an auction was running about a
lobby card asking if I would ship it in a tube.
I told them that I would ship the item flat, gave them a very brief history of
lobby cards, and sent them a link to learnaboutmovieposters.com so that they
could learn
I am also on Michael's side. Personally, I've had fantastic luck with WELN, and
hope that that luck continues, but Michael is not wrong to want better
pictures, nor is he wrong for naming names.
Sometimes when a seller sells many items at once, they don't spend as much time
and detail
If I were to attempt a list like this I would actually avoid most vintage
titles. They might appear on the most poster collector's wish lists, but if I
was just focusing on most collected movie posters I would think about titles
like:
Star Wars
Caddyshack
Scarface
Pulp Fiction
Hey, I know he was a poster here from long ago.
Was influencial with Style-B and obviously Movieposterbid.com
Where is he? Is he lurking? Is he absent?
Surenly I'm not the only one that misses him?

When it comes to boxing I've always been a fan of The Set-Up.
But I can't believe nobody mentioned Hoosiers. Love that film.
And hey, what about a great golf film? Caddyshack.

I personally consider reserves a waste of my time. When shopping if I see them
I walk away. List a price you're willing to sell, if I'm willing to buy I click
on your listing. Complicated.
Attempt to trick me in there with a reserve so that I might fall in love with
the product and bid away
I was really enjoying the Best Poster Find messages, noticed Susan posted with something very positive, and then saw JR in my in box. For a second my heart thought, wow, maybe the two really can live in peace. WRONG. JR hijacked one of the most positive threads I've seen in months and
I think it's a find idea but I tend to think the line,"Nearly all the big poster collectors are members, plus tons tons of collectors"was perhaps meant to say or would be better read as,"Nearly all the big poster dealers are members, plus tons tons of collectors."Just a thought
Well ever since joining MOPO and re-enjoying why I collected movie posters in the first place I've considered selling off a large portion of my collection, or perhaps consigning it. The jury isn't hung, but then again I'm Irish, when referring to hung someone should either be dead or likely
Trying to play the game, I'll post a poster related question. Do you believe a DVD release or a film remake can change poster prices?Recently I've seen the alternate Wicker Man style that is the sun symbol and silhouettes beneath it hitting $100 and $150 easily. Is this a reflection of renewed
Sorry but this comparison of 1500's maps to 1930's or laterlobby cards is bollocks. A few simple factors makes it so. The sheer surface space, the age, and the rarity, jump to mind. Say a rare lobby card from The Black Cat only comes up every other year, but every year a trimmed version appears.

Box office take isn't that hard to find out but box office profit is much harder.It's basically done by number of weeks in box-office. The first two weeks a theater generally only receives 35%. There may be the rare 30% or 40% but it is rare. 35% for the first two weeks is a rule (unless

I'll just say this, my word I've seemed awfully vocal recently, and now this.MI3 was much better reviewed than 2. It opened better than one (ignoring inflation) and made less than either. There is a factor here. Time of month released. MI3 came out a whopping, and excuse me folks, this is
Of course, there is a truth here, Snakes on a Plane cost half as much as WTC to make, and was never really designed for the theatrical market.A movie like this is basically glorified STV fare, and one must imagine it will do excellently there. WTC will do well on rentals, but Snakes on a Plane
Have I seen this film? NOWill I see this film? Honestly I am likely to rent it.Do I care? No, but it should be clear this was Snakes on a Plane on day one. There was a brief perious of time that studio executives wanted to change the name to something more conventional. Samuel L Jackson
I've just got to say, when if comes to filmmakers today.Kevin Smith - A total wash, not even a one hit wonder, more of a one hit blunder (he likes to claim he has two hits, but not really). Boring and more interested in himself than in making a good film. Clerks 2 is his best film to date (a

No real post, just a note of applause to JR and MoviePosterBid (though I know he's no longer directly involved.) To MoviePosterBid it was a fun auction with really great items.And to Jr, you're one of the least hypocritical people I've gotten to know, even just online. You've always spoken in

I am a fan of the original Superman films, but I'm confused how anyone could call this film a remake. Are there huge similarities, yes, but so what? Are there huge similarities one comic to the next? Sure, and without complaint.One thing, to be clear, this film takes place 5 years after
I know at one time there were a couple of poster shows that happened in Texas. I always frequented the Big D show in summer and there was a Houston show around December I think, maybe called Stargazer or something like that? Anyone know if any of these still exist?Ron

The Majestic shows some posters, my favorite is probably the one sheet for Sand Pirates of the Sahara, the phoney movie within the movie of the film. The attention to detail in making it seem like a real B poster from the era, even the NSS number looks authentic enough.
