M'kay, I need some help finding movie posters. Like the ones in movie theaters or something. Any ideas on B&M stores or online places i could go? Thanks ladies and gents.
10 pts goes to the person who can find a "Rent" (either the movie or broadway) poster.

You could try going to movie theaters around you and asking if they have the poster and will sell it. Most theaters, from my experience, will just sell their posters when they are done with them or let them accumulate so its best they just get rid of them anyways.

Or theres always online. You could try ebay even. Heres a site I found real quick too http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_product.asp?master_movie_id=31631

I worked at an AMC Theatres in high school and it was our policy to not sell posters to customers for some reason. I'd think it would have something to do with the poster being property of the movie company and not necessarily AMC's right to sell or something? I don't know for certain, just seems plausible.
Anyway it was our policy to let the employees take them home when we were done with them. As such, I've acquired a good collection of movie posters that I'm now looking to get rid of. Alas it was five years ago that I was there, so, no Rent poster here. By all means though, go ask your local theatre, couldn't hurt, might help, just giving you a heads-up from my experiences.

You call yourself a gamer? The points amount to nothing! The entire premise of it all is to amass as many as possible!

Thanks for all the help so far!

you could always go to the bus stop with a wrench and grab one. dont know if its 100% legal, but when i was in college, this is how me and my friends got some cool wall decorations. the posters just regenerate within a week.

They are only 11" x 17". Those aren't even close to normal size.

I always use www.ricksmovie.com Good prices, great shipping deal, and great customer service.

I work at a movie theater and have all kinds of posters (and many readily available), but I'm afraid I don't have Rent.

I have done this several time as well, just pick a block that isnt very populated and try doing it either very early in the morning or late at night.
