Best present my wife ever gave me.

...I actually had a chance to pick up a Polish version awhile back for a (relatively) decent price, but passed. I wanna wait till I can swing an American, French or German edition.

I will add:

Not saying its the best poster but it still gives me the creeps:

[Chris Messineo]

Callaghan,

I buy all of my posters from AllPosters.com and I get them mounted on wood. You can see a sample here: http://www.allposters.com/gallery.asp?CID=557A1DFCF38D4F90845E21CC27AAD1B6&apnum=1757&startat=/getMounted.asp

They look great.

Chris

[Mike McNeese]

Oooh, I really like the look of them mounted on wood. Is there some sort of coating over the front of the poster?

[Phil Maker]

There's no such thing as free cable...

Hands down.

There's just something about Jack that makes a poster look great.

[Sad Max]

It *is* a great poster.

*edit*

[J.R. Hudson]

Why ?

Is it his meltdown ?

I love Mel.

[McLeish]

I've never seen that Mad Max poster before, sooo good.

[Sad Max]

Yeah. It is a legendarily tasty one sheet.

*edit*

[J.R. Hudson]

I respect that

My thoughts are (if it is indeed regarding his meltdown)

We're all human, we're all insecure, we all have demons ...

None of us are perfect, he fucked up. He admitted it.

I donlt know him, I love his work. The fact he came forth and said sorry and admitted he had some issues got me nothing but respect (unlike other celebrities who just outright live in denial) for being honest and accountable

[J.R. Hudson]

I just snipped that stuff 'cause I don't want to turn a fun thread into a Mel-bash.

Hope that's okay.

Of course !

Sides

That Steve Mcqueen One Sheet is too cool !

[Mike McNeese]

Yep - REALLY digging the Mad Max.

Not particularly a beauty, but it's so fitting for the movie...

Does anyone else think there's something seriously wrong with this poster? Just read between the lines...or rather, below the belt.

[Erik Olson]

Yeah. Steve McQueen was more man than most of us will ever be. At least, he made being a man look good - better, he made it look cool.

I aspire to carry myself like McQueen. I wish I had his Mustang exploding out of my pants is what I'm trying to say.

Wait...

That didn't come out right.

I meant to say, "I want McQueen in my pants."

No... that isn't right either.

The posters for Rocky and Rocky 6 are very, very good. They really bring out the spirit of the film.

Love the "Metropolis" Poster

Moulin Rouge's poster is also good

Don't know how to post pictures, but I recall "Psycho" (uk poster) was nice.

The same goes to "Vertigo"- Hitchcock's movies had great posters.

http://www.cinemasterpieces.com/vertigoapr05.jpg

"The Godfather" is also a great poster.

Latelly, really enjoyed the poster of "Paris, Je T'Aime"

[CallaghanFilms]

...I donlt know him, I love his work....

Mel Gibson is my #2 favorite director working today (behind Spielberg.) First Braveheart -then- The Passion of the Christ -then- Apacolypto...........Fuckin' Fughedaboutit! What a roll he is on! Hell, even his debut flick The Man Without A Face was pretty freakin good for his first time at bat (just take a look at some other favorite directors' freshman films!)

I always thought this was an amazing and striking poster. Darkly beautiful.

Also a big fan of the Shawshank Redemption poster.
