I have loved this The Thing poster for ages. Just discovered that prints are available and was financially irresponsible.

(Yes I know it misspells Campbell's name but everything else is too fucking cool.)

Teague; thank you!
I now need that poster!
I've been looking into getting all 6(although 9+ now) theatrical posters for the Star Wars saga to put up on my walls, and the more authentic the better. I've never even seen that poster before, and it's great!

well, to be fair, that's also way, way before the internet was even a conceivable idea, and where you could even change the spoken language at the touch of a button. Back then, the odds of a movie trailer hitting you, was as big as the odds of you visiting your local theatre, and that they would have that specific trailer film.

I mean, that's a great poster and all, but I get why it's not standard anymore.

Just hung this one at home. The light and shadow, the cigarette, the color palette . . . baby

(Also I never talked about it in the Last movie you watched thread, but Out of the Past is one of the best movies I've seen so far this year, and Robert Mitchum is just the coolest in it.)

Yeah, we used to have a very strong movie poster tradition (a custom film poster was an opportunity to make a covert political statement during the communist era). It died out in the 1990s when theaters started using generic posters (I guess they were supplied alongside film prints). Nowadays only a few arthouse theaters  bother paying local artists.
