Alamo Drafthouse Posters

[ozzfan84]

I'm in the process of flattening all of my prints to store in an art portfolio. Two questions:
-What's the easiest way to flatten them? Does it just take time under something heavy?
-When they're stored flat, could they just rest stacked on each other, or should there be kraft paper in between them?

I like to put craft paper on the top and on the bottom of the stack of posters that I'm flattening, but I don't put anything in between each poster in the stack.

is that Rocky poster for real? That's hilarious.

Man, they are jumping the shark with these two...
it was bound to happen...

These are definitely in the WTF realm...

They should have turned the Tiger around. Now THAT I would have bought!

Yeah, I don't usually go after Mondo releases any more. I have my Ken Taylor Alien print, which was very easy to come by from Gallery 88, even though it's limited to only 85 copies! I just rang them up, and they obliged me and I drove down from Vegas to get it. But the buzz, overzealous collectors, and scalper market have mostly turned me off to the Mondo releases.

This Dragonslayer just speaks to me.

I just fired off an inquiry to Mondo asking if I could purchase the ticket for the show, and not attend as I'm in Vegas, and just have my poster shipped to me. I'm sure the attempt is futile, but one never knows until one asks...

Wish me luck...

I really want this one for some damn reason.

I don't think it'll be too bad with Dragonslayer. It's a very nice print, but I'm not sure how big of a hit it'll be with people. You might be able to get it on the site or by other means without a ton of trouble.

Is this the Alien print you have? I love this one, but sadly do not own. My friend has it, though, so I get to see it all the time.

My guess is all three of these will not go super fast, they will probably be up a minute or two longer than bigger movie releases. But honestly, even if they do go up fast I am sure you could get these in a few weeks on eBay for near retail.

A good way to judge this is to look at a recent smaller movie release like the "Last House On the Left" print. If you look at the completed auction listings on that for eBay they are pretty low.

Not saying these are bad prints but since they cater to a smaller market I think they will be easier to get now or later without breaking the bank.

I'm hoping this holds true for Unholy 3 and Old Dark House. I NEED those.

That rocky III print is awful

I've had the Shadow of a Doubt and Mole People prints since last week. They're beautiful in person. I'm still waiting for the Unholy 3 since they weren't ready in time for the screening.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I think I'll try for one of the 13 samurai prints

 

[Boba Ben]

I like the Mole People one, but I'm going to skip it.

Yep, that's the one. Love it!

 

[Boba Ben]

You're lucky to own that one. It's one of the best in my opinion.

lol @ jumping the shark.

Agreed, these look like total crap.

Never saw the movie, so I'm gonna have to pass. Looks cool though.

I saw them post that on their FB page. I dig the poster, but trying to save up for something else..

 

[praxitas]

Speaking of Mesa - did you ever sell those horkeys on ebay or are you holding on to them now?

That is one of the ones I'm officially on the hunt for

 

[Boba Ben]

The Vampire Queen is pretty cool, but I'm more fond of the Terror from Outer Space one.

 

[furystorm]

I feel I must, must have this Dragonslayer!

Who will help me?
