You know who has made the best movies posters evar? Star Wars. There are seriously like 12 styles for each movie (well, the originals) that just freaking rawk.
I’ve been thinking about decorating my office at work, since the most exciting thing I have right now is a drawing on my whiteboard from my little brother (really), and this place needs some spicing up. So I started poking around last night, and I saw this awesome UK quad for Superman 3, which I thought about getting, for the sheer awesomeness of how awesome it is, but I couldn’t find one for sale that wasn’t folded. Meh.
Then I found some really cool Batman Begins ones, and I wondered why I haven’t ever bought any of those. There are four that look all pretty cool, and I had a hard time deciding which to get, so I just kept moving on.
Next I started looking around for Star Wars ones, which they are all awesome, but it’s the same thing — it’s hard to pick which one. Then I found one I had *never* seen before, and instantly snatched it up. Here’s an image of the poster from art.com:
That thing is just gorgeous.
I’ve never bought any movie posters from art.com before, so I’m especially wary to see how it will turn out. In fact, this is the first time I’ve ever bought a reprint for a movie poster since I prefer the originals, but in this case, original Star Wars posters go for a *lot* of money so I’m content to settle with a reprint that is at least the same size. I just hope the quality is good. Sometimes these reprints will look like a copy of a copy.
Oh, and for good measure, here’s the whiteboard drawing:
My little bro is really into Star Wars too. 🙂
