Bloody terrorists.
I have this poster….so that is what it is supposed to look like without creases, sun fade and scorch marks.
and skeet marks you geek…
I worked as a projectionist when this first came out and showed it so many times I could do changeovers by sound, didn’t need to see the marks. I still hate it with the white hot intensity of a thousand death stars.
@Alte: Ah, a fellow projectionist! Our dying breed lives on another day…
Plenty of valid reasons to hate SW –which one’s yours? Or did the carbon-arc dust simply drive you mad?
BTW –I’ve always liked this illustrator (IIRC he did the original Del Rey paperback cover as well) and especially this poster. I think it’s one of only a couple he did with multiple Millenium Falcons.
Fake! (The Millenium Falcon didn’t show up until much later.)
@SumoSnipe: scorch marks?
@Alte:
“a thousand death stars”?!?
Damn!!! I’d pay to see that too!!
BTW – the folded poster came with the double album vinyl soundtrack.
@Zane: The poster has survived moving from 3 countries, 5 states and my ex-roommate nearly takes it (and the house) out in a fire. Who would of thought using a wood stove was so complicated?
@SumoSnipe: your ex-roommate was female, right?
@HoChunk. Ja, Love the smell of burning carbon and copper in the morning. 1927s Simplex Magnarc machines. Metal reels that clanked. I did the New England premier of SW so I was the first to see it when the cans came in. Impressive and I didn’t mind watching it the first 20 or so times I had to project it. After that I started prowling dark alleys late at night with my shotgun… hunting wookies. Or hookers. I forget which now.
@natedog: Marine.
I hope JARJAR dies of aids… or sumthin equally nasty
i am ashamed that noone has said this yet.
ITS A TRAP!!!!!!!
