Cheap ass movie/tv posters?

I was just looking for a Back to the Future poster last week. Almost all the sites I went to charges about 8 bucks for shipping which pretty much killed any deal they had. I ended up going with amazon but its through a different retailer so no free shipping with 25 dollars. :( Found a bunch of posters for around 13-14 shipped.

Thats the retailer I went with.
If your not too picky about what you put on your wall though go to walmart or FYE and they run 5-8 bucks.

Check with your local rental stores.

At the store I work at we typically get in like 10 or so posters a month and use like 3. The rest we either give away or throw away.
 
I work at a movie theather and same thing they get tons and the rest are given to employees or sit in closet for years. I got a nice collection from working there lol plus a few standees.

Oh wow, I have a 9x11' wall that's just begging for something like that. God, my printer's going to explode. >.<

How many squares is that? If it's less than 60, I might be able to pull something off with 1 cartridge.

how on earth did you make something so large?
 
My advice:

Find a high resolution image you'd like on your wall.

Rasterbate it into a pdf.

Email it or throw it on a usb thumb drive to print it at your local Staples.

Mine was less than $5 and i printed 56 pages on a slightly thicker stock of paper. Saved me the paper and probably a whole ink cartridge. I did spend a little time cutting the edges, and taping, but the final result was well worth it.

I'd want mine in color and high quality. Not to mention the time and effort needed to put it all together... not worth it IMO.
 
[quote name='Heller']how about cheap poster frames? looking for some very basic ones to hand those posters on my walls :)[/QUOTE]

Same here. I've got a good 3-4 posters that are waiting to be hanged, but I can't seem to find a decent picture frame that isn't ridiculously overpriced.
 
[quote name='Vinny']Anybody know of a good site? I don't care for the latest or grestest, just want to hang some stuff on my wall.[/quote]

If you could figure out what it'd cost for supplies to ship it and all, I have a poster for Transformers(the 2007 movie) just sitting in my closet rolled up in it's sleeve still.

I got it from Gamestop for putting $5 down on that horrid movie game of the same name. I later on cancelled the PO for it though. :lol:

You(or any other CAG who wants it) are welcome to it, if you can figure out what it'd cost to ship it in a way that it wouldn't get mangled, unless of course you don't care what it looks like, in which case I could take it out of its sleeve and fold it repeatedly until it could be crammed into an envelope unceremoniously.

:lol:
