I think another good example of this was the recent King Kong. Some reviewers had a problem with Naomi Watts defying the laws of physics by standing waving her arms on the Empire State Building, but they had the ability to accept the many other wacky aspects of the movie.

Bruce is wondering whether I remembered to bid on his auctions. This time, I did the immediate lowball bid approach on about 10 auctions. By the next day, I had lost the lead on most of them. There was only one poster that I was really interested in: "Charlie McCarthy, Detective." I thought

Hey! Phil and I COMPLETELY agree on something. I have seen images of him, and comparing his looks to mine is like comparing the Hope Diamond to a lump of coal. I think there are many of us who have had a lot of good fortune in life, and this charity auction is a tiny effortless way for us to give

I think it's conceivable that Bruce will open his auction site to other poster dealers in about a year. Soon thereafter, he'll add other auction categories and be a strong competitor to eBay. He'll begin selling stock, but it will initially only be available to his email club members. (Ther
