Framed Movie Posters

SoAdCrAzY · 24 Jul 2011 at 23:06

Does anyone have any? (pics?)

I would love to get some once I get the money.

I can't decide between Reservoir Dogs or A Clockwork Orange.

I used to have a lot of old Bond movie posters - copies of the original releases... framed around the house with other Bond memorabilia...

I really liked them...

Then the girlfriend moved in...

End of the man-decor.

I'll see if I still have some pics. You can pick up decent frames for not too much £££

allposters sell movie posters and you can select to have them framed.

Does anyone know if they are good quality?

basic poster is cheap, but they're charging you a lot for the framing

they're well known so probably ok

Posters from a couple of places, frames you can get from Argos, I got one in there and one on eBay, couple of quid cheaper on eBay. Frames are somewhat on the flimsy side but look perfect imo. It's not like I wave the frames around all the time.

Nice. Thanks. I'm looking forward to being able to get some framed posters.

Allposters are legit, very quick and they come very well packed. Personally I think the stuff I purchased looks pretty good, apart from one damaged frame...

They can also get quite large too depending on frame and background choices. The posters/prints are usually cheap, but the framing and shipping are the killers.

I didn't get the right mat background for my Empire Strike Back framed poster though (white was the wrong choice). I may get it redone locally.

I've just ordered from uk.movieposter as they had all the ones I wanted in the right size (going for vintage sci-fi posters from the 50s, plus one from the 30s). Word of warning, shipping is pricey if you want it gaurenteed, so not worth it unless you're ordering a few (I went for 5 in total).

I can't wait to get them

I got:

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman
Day the Earth Stood Still (the only one I've actually seen)
King Kong
Forbidden Planet
Godzilla, King Of The Monsters

Need to sort out some frames now. £21 a pop for the Ribba from Ikea

My cousin works for Easyart. He says he can frame them all for free

I had the 50ft woman, got rid of it because it didn't fit the frames I wanted. It was in a clip frame previously. In fact it's still in it I think, I just can't remember where!

Got a really nice forbidden planet canvas but I can only find a crap picture :/

ScarySquirrel · 11 Aug 2011 at 22:14

From what i can see of that, it looks AWESOME!!!

My cousin should be able to sort out the right size frames to fit. The posters are all pretty much the same size, with only half inches in difference between some of them, so there may be a bit of a border on some of them. It's only really just occurred to me that each is about a meter in height, I don't know if I have enough wall space

Just because I'm bored, here are the ones I'm getting:

I have a load of posters that are getting quite scruffy because I can't seem to find frames to fit. Some of them seem pretty unconventional sizes. Would you recommend having a look at Argos before anything?

I have a signed theatrical poster for Land of the Dead, signed LE poster for Triangle, signed poster for The Hills Run Red, signed poster for An American Werewolf in London, and more postcard-sized mini-posters signed as well. They're degrading badly so I really do need to frame them ASAP.
