Movie Posters

Recommended Posts

Anybody know of a good site that sells movie posters (not only new ones)? I've checked a few and they have been pretty hit and miss.

 

Basically I want to get all the Mel Brooks movie posters for my place have them going along the wall framed.

I want to find the poster where Carey and Winslet are on the ice, of Eternal Sunshine. I haven't found it anywhere cheaper than about $25.

 

This may sound stupid, but what is the best way that you guys have found to hang a poster up. If it's a frame, where can I get a good low priced one? If it's something else, then what?

I've been trying to get all 11 (including F vs J) Friday the 13th posters myself, and haven't had much luck. I haven't looked too hard yet though.

 

You can find perfectly decent poster frames at Walmart, cheap like everything else there.

If you want it to look nice and not damage the poster...Frames

The frames at WalMart are really good.  $16 or so for the really nice ones.

do you know if the frames at Walmart are 27 by 40, because that's the size you need for modern original film posters.

That doesn't mean they have 27 by 40. I've looked at many stores like Walmart that had lots of different sizes and none of them had 27 by 40.

The ones here at Walmart are 27x40.

 

MoviePosters.com has the original Blazing Saddles for $75.. so I'll be looking for reprints I think.

If there's an money issue, I could've told you from the start that you'd have to go with reproductions for most of Brooks' films.

Ebay is great for reproductions

 

 

That's great to know that Walmart actually has them, I only knew of one store locally that sold them.

I have my Clerks poster in a 27x40 frame that I bought at Walmart ... the tag specifically said "PERFECT FOR MOVIE POSTERS" on it. and it fits lovely (even though the frame itself is plastic and plexiglass...it looks good.

How much did you pay for yours?

I paid $20 at the local store I bought them from. I don't know how much they paid for them at WalMart, but I figure it's less.

My old highschool english teacher had movie posters for Resevoir Dogs & Dead Man Walking in his class room. He told me there is a great big poster outlet store in Berkeley(downtown). So if you live close, give it a shot.

http://www.moviegoods.com has the Blazing Saddles poster for $14.99 so that would be were I will be going methinks.

I think you need to take a closer look at the product details. That's a small 11 by 27 poster. It's an original, but if you're wanting the regular sized posters this isn't what you're looking for.

Yeah, I bought "The Girl Next Door" poster off allposter.com while I was in Vegas. Three days later when I got back home to Kentucky, it was there.

yeah, the longest I've had to wait for a poster from allposters was like 3 days

Toowoomba videostores often want to get rid of some of their old posters, thus putting them in a box for you to take for free.

 

But before that started happening more, a Video Ezy would sell them for $2.00
