But I would also like to look at the Full Size Poster.I can use those Black Colored End Clips/Brackets that hold them flat on the wall and let you put the nails or Push Pins in the Brackets instead of the Poster itself.

But I wonder how it will look without them being in an actual frame.
And I am worried if I Framed them if the glass on the Frame would cast reflections from the Projector Image.

I really couldnt tell you Todd. I only have posters tacted to the walls at the moment. I really Want a framed poster of The Wizard

Doing Pretty Well to be Honest,my Friend.

One day closer to my Screen Arriving. I am starting to get excited,just wish I would get some kind of Shipping Update.

And wanting to get some decorating done for now.Since it will be a little while before the room gets painted that dark,matte Paint Color.
So I have a 120inch Curtain Rod going Up on the Wall Behing My Screen.And then I have Black Colored Curtain Panels to hang from the rod.That Way when you look at the screen its surrounded by nothing but a Dark Black.Should Help with Contrast and Black Levels.

And I have 2 New Posters still rolled in the Plastic 23 X 39 to Hang up(No Frame just these Black Plastic Clips that goes over the top and bottom of the Posters).It keeps the Posters flat and you put the Push-Pins in these holes instead of in the poster itself.

Both are Preview Posters.With all the Credits near the Bottom and The Coming To A Theater (And then the Date).One of Watchmen and one of the CGI Star Wars Clone Wars.

But I need more then just 2.So I have been looking over all I can find.
But I like So Many Movies I cant decide on a Poster or even a size.

And I could take that money to use on a Blu-Ray or 2.

Great to hear that you have something to look forward to. With our room size i think 2 is good 4 would be max and should place 2 at the wall opposite of the screen and 1 each on the sides more than that i think would be distracting and look overdone. We just have to live within our means and guess prioritize where our budget goes.

Amen.Very Good Advice Lestat.

I will just keep looking and see what would turn out to be the best upgrades to make and When.

I think I need something on the walls as they look extremely bare.I will figure all of this out pretty soon,I Hope.

Morning Todd,

How are you doing? Any plans to watch a Blu today, or are you waiting until your screen arrives?

Justin

Hi Justin,my Friend.I just left a reply on HAMP's Thread about exactally how I feel anout the theft you endured.

That is Truly Screwed Up(to say it as nicely as possible).

But I ordered the Screen and Mounting Brackets on Tuesday.So I am thinking(from others experiences) that I will have it by the first half of Next Week.So I have decided to not watch any movies until I have the screen hung and the solid wall of Black Curtains are behind the Screen.

I think I can hold off for as long as possible.It will give me some time to handle a few other enhancements to the room.

I wont have it painted until around New Years at the Current pace. So I am going to hang some Movie Posters on the Wall to eliminate the blank look.
I already have 2 Official Movie Posters with the Credits and Release Date at(or near) the bottom.One for "Watchmen" and the other is the CGI Version Of Star Wars:Clone Wars.

So I am going to order some more posters today.I have a choice of either the 3 Prequel Star Wars Movie Posters.Or the Original 3 Star Wars Movie Posters at full size(@ 27 X 40).
Then I have about (3) 11 X 17 Posters I want to hang as well.

Then I can just take them down when its painting time.I can even leave the nails in the wall and paint over them.Then I dont have to worry about recentering and hanging the posters.

So what do you think? First 3 or Last 3 sets of Posters for the Star Wars Movies.

And,Again Sorry about having to go thru that .There are truly some Sorry Individuals in this World.

I think all of us have probably been called "Special" at least once in our lives.
Just as long as its the Right Meaning of "Special" its All Good.

Well,crazy.You have taken about the longest break in working on or adding to your System.

So I know you might be feeling a little stir crazy(No Pun Intended).
So if you have the energy and the time,then I would say: Go For It.

Just doing the wire Management in the first place , Means it will look good Mike .
Before you take pics , Get in front of the stand & look in . Any wires you see go & see if you can hide them better or make them look better if you can't hide them !!
