Adding Movie Posters to Man Cave - Blu-ray Forum

scorpionkingct · 05-18-2009, 03:38 PM

I may want to add some movie posters to the MAN CAVE, may have room for 2, if you were to place your fav 2 what would they be. I like unique movies such as "Lost Highway"...

I don't think I'd pick my two favorite movies but rather two movies with cool posters. The current ST with Kirk or Spock looking up their brow is cool, and also, something like Superman looking over the Earth with his cape adjacent to his body from SR.

As for the OP, how 'bout a little Star Wars? I'd go one Star Wars (probably Episode IV if I had to choose one), and one Tron.

the ghostbusters one is sweet too, its just a black background with all of them in uniform with white backlighting and the logo above them, really simple but amazing all the same!

^ Both classics!

Ah yes the Man Cave, I'm working on one of those myself....

A Star Wars poster would certainly work well, maybe even Jaws...

I'm not a big "day.one.must.buy.this.blu.or.die." guy but these two are exceptions

When I was 7 yrs. old my parents got me a new one(Star Wars) from a local theater in mint condition. Shortly after I hung it on the wall with four of these.

After a few moves, and a kid not really realizing what he had, it was lost/thrown out. Looking at the going rate for a mint original now........

Teabaggins · 05-18-2009, 07:47 PM

I don't know what it is but to me the style of the older posters seems richer and more "magical"

I've hung many a-posters with those things, unfortunately. You know what, though? I was a kid, and I didn't know any better. No kid keeps a poster in mint condition.

If only someone could come up with a better solution for viewing movie posters...
