Speaking of posters, this decade has the best representation of posters for any decade followed closely by the 90’s. I have two The Thing posters on my The Thing wall (along with all ten of the comics framed which I’ve never read, plus about 1,000 dollars worth of other memorabilia from the movie). I also have Predator, Empire Strikes Back, Die Hard. The other posters I have are A Quiet Place, Tombstone, Jurassic Park, Last Action Hero, The Truman Show, Cabin in the Woods, Terminator 2 and The Mummy. My theater room has space for two more posters and I don’t know which ones to get. Ideally I’d have a 24x36 poster for every 10/10 rating of mine, but a poster/frame costs about 30-40 total, and I’ve got about 30 10/10 movies, so the goal is just representation for each of them. For my basement bathroom I’m going to have a smaller poster of the iconic Jeff Daniels pooping scene from Dumb and Dumber hanging above my toilet for example.

Even in Godzilla (in a lot of iterations at least) it's typically the result of nuclear fall out or some experiment. Every Kong I've seen is just that he was there on Skull Island. Is there any version of King Kong where he came about because of the machinations of man, or is he always just essentially a force of nature? Nope, it's Fantasy. All of the major King Kong releases have him as simply a giant gorilla because of the circumstances of his living situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s worth far more now. Both in real and sentimental value. And no, the TV/sound system I have picked out is going to set me back 3,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’ve got advice I’ll take it. The TV just had to be 85 inches or more. Price range there is 2,000 give or take a hundred depending on the brand.

It implies you still think so. I'm pretty sure you are not the arbiter of what is and is not "creepy." I hate to say it, but people are physically superior when they are young to when they are old. Why do you think NFL players only play until they are 30-35 years old? Here is an example of Brooke: The picture on the left is when she was in Blue Lagoon. The picture on the right was taken fairly recently when she was 54 years old. I'm sorry, but it isn't "creepy" to acknowledge that she looked better in the picture on the left, even for someone who is 100 years old. I'm 55 years old and I have no shame in admitting that I looked better back in those days than I do now. It's not opinion. It's a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlevinKelevra Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 well, you can't get anything that is close to "theater" level on a sub for under $1000. You can get decent speakers on a $400-$500 per pair range. (by that I mean getting under 20 hZ without distortion, with moving air (tactile), and with hitting SPL above 100 dB) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
