Movie posters

Hey! I was just wondering if anyone here collected movie posters. Kinda something ive always wanted to get into. I have two framed, one reprint of pokemon the first movie, and one theatre version db battle of gods 1.

My roomie has a ton in the garage he doesn't do anything with, he used to work at a movie theatre and they would sometimes let the employees have them, so he has a sick collection of 2005-2014 or so genre posters. Thats how i got my battle of gods.

Anyone else do this? Is there a place youd recommend to buy real theatre prints? Would be another interesting hobby to have i think.

  • I have a ton of horror posters, mostly promotional stuff that came with Arrow or Scream releases. I've been thinking I'll unload them all though.



    And then I have some smaller framed prints that my wife gets me as gifts that are hanging in our hallway. Once Upon a Time in the West, Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Big Trouble In Little China, that kind of thing.
  • I used to work at the cinema and had loads of them. Gave them all away except one. Scarface.



    I still have a standee from Spider-Man 3. I was promised a normal poster of the film if I did overtime. Did the work only to be told they ran out. Took the 6ft standee out of protest (No one, Not even security can stop me). I eventually got a regular poster a few days later.
  • I have a small handful of 1960's half sheets. A couple of which are framed and in my bathroom. WW2 German/Nazi related films, one is a sattire. A bit dark but it matches my taste. Love WW2 history.
  • Oh man, I have like a 1000 ranging from late 70s to early 2000s.
  • I wish. The vintage poster game gets expenive. Every once in a while I'll look for an original poster from Akira Kurosawa's Ikiru. That movie has so many levels.
  • I have two originals. Ghostbusters and Back to the Future. I got my wife an original Wizard of Oz for her birthday a bit ago.
  • I have a few. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie, Back to the Future, Star Wars, The Big Lebowski
  • I have a bunch sitting in a box from an old video rental store. Mostly just 90s junk, nothing of real note there. Interestingly, that's the same lot where I found an original Earthbound poster, haha.
  • We used to own a Movie Theater so I have a lot of them. I would just grab whatever interested me. I probably have most of the Super hero ones and more recent star wars.
