Looking for 6-10 classic movie posters for the new house

[MissChief]

Which would you choose? IMO Star Wars, ESB and RoTJ are certainties, but which others?

[SaulGoodman]

I like the foreign language stuff. There's a great poster shop in Chelsea that had a 3 meter high Bond poster in French that looked great. The Japanese ones are good also, especially the Star Wars stuff. There's another good shop in Marylebone that had a nice Top Gun one in recently. Terminator is a good shout.

I think you’re about to get the suggestion of every film ever made OP

Platoon

Used to have this on my wall as a teenager, maybe not so suitable these days.

[Nurburgsingh]

got to be these, no?

Do you want automotive themed posters or just great film posters?

A mix of both. I like the Cannonball run option.

I did have an idea of maybe a Poster and then perhaps a Lego model underneath, like the Ghostbusters poster then the Ecto-1 on a shelf under it. I have a USC X-Wing mid-build and just finished the UCS TIE interceptor and already have the A-Wing too if I could justify them. X-Wing for A New Hope, TIE Interceptor for ESB and the A-Wing for RoTJ? Maybe a Delorean for BTTF? I do have the smaller Millennium Falcon I could use instead somewhere too.

How about a spot of art deco?

[A993LAD]

This would be high on my list......

[jingars]

[LimaDelta]

Top choices for me would be 2001, Terminator, Jaws, Aliens, Apocalypse Now, Dr Strangelove, SWANH, Das Boot, Top Gun.

[marcosgt]

Good thread.

One of the Thunderball posters would be first choice for me.

Ideally this one :



One from the Le Mans movie, definitely.



Get's trickier after that.

Original Star Wars movie, maybe? Jaws, perhaps? Blackhawk Down? Le Mans '66?

In the '90s I had all 4 of these. Full-size cinema posters, from the 051 cinema in Liverpool (long gone). Cost me 3 quid each.

Not much use to you now, but made me remember, so thanks

One for the bathroom surely….

[Richtea1970]

Surely you just go with movies you like?
If you don't like a particular film, irrespective of how cool the movie poster was, I wouldn't have it on my wall.
Personally l'd have at least one Clint Eastwood.
