Hello,
my name is Jason. I sell movie theater posters on eBay for a
living. I am 29 years old and a native of Mississippi.
We
have my sweet, and yet simple, home entertainment set up. You will
notice that to the right is a cabinet which contains the following:
Playstation 2, DVD player, Super Nintendo, and regular Nintendo. In
the middle is my glorious 61-inch TV. To the left you can make out
many cartridges (remember those?) of old school NES and SNES games
that I have had since I was a kid and still enjoy playing. You
don’t know what fun is until you have had 10 friends over playing
“Contra” and “Street Fighter 2” on a 61-inch TV while your
drunk at 3am. I get a lot of questions about the case for the games,
I built that myself.
Ok, yeah…I know the majority of you out there think these
three movies suck. I won’t argue with you about “Spider-man 3”
or “Batman Forever” cause those sucked the life out of their
franchises, but I LOVED “Superman Returns” damn it! Anyways,
being a movie poster seller I got my hands on these three posters
and decided they were great representations of the 3 superheroes,
complete with a symbol in the middle of each poster. The Supes and
Bat poster are both double-sided (which means they were meant to be
displayed inside a lightbox). The “Spider-Man 3” is a lenticular
and the image shifts from the black suit to the red as you walk
around it.
I
have all 3 posters inside of back-light boxes (I made them), and
this is the view of all three posters with the lights turned on
inside the boxes. Pretty nifty huh? I have more posters hanging
around my place and will get around to taking more pictures in the
future.
