Looking to buy a couple of movie posters for my new theater and wanted some recommendations if anyone has bought online. I know of some such as allposters.com. Any input would be helpful.

    +1 on allposters. Used them a few times, great selection, no complaints.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Thanks for the replies. Getting fired up for our new house, less than two months for it to be finished. Finally will have a room for the home theater and the home theater only.

    Thats great! Congrats!

    So, what posters will be lining the walls of the theater?

    I always thought the original Star Wars poster from 1977 was a must have. Jaws, Godfather 1 & 2 and Lord of the Rings Trilogy are tops also.

    Check back when you're in and made your choice.

    Going on 8000 post and you don't know "true" movie posters are double sided.
    That is how you are able to back light them.....................
    Guess we all learn something new everyday! ;)

    +2 for all posters. I've purchased many posters from with no problems at all.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Isn't a rule that you have Goodfellas or Scarface poster in your theatre?

    Got my first order the other day from allposters.com. I ordered Batman Begins and The Return of the King. Instead of seeing Aragorn and the gang there was artwork of a half naked chick with her back turned and a nice shot of her buttcrack.:eek: I called them and they're sending out a new one and I don't have to send the other one back. Good customer service over there. Nov. 15th we are in our new crib.:D
