Some are quite good, most are not terribly interesting and the whole enterprise has the whiff of The Franklin Mint about it; ie, instant "collectibles" created expressly for the collector market.
But to each his (or her) own...

After auctioning around 400,000 items, we finally are auctioning our very first Alamo Drafthouse poster! For those of you who don't know, the Alamo Drafthouse is a restaurant/theater located in Austin, Texas. They create their own posters for showings of movies. The posters are produced in limited numbers and are known for their different, really cool artwork. The one we are currently auctioning is from Hell Ride, the 2008 Larry Bishop motorcycle biker gang action adventure thriller (executive produced by Quentin Tarantino) starring Larry Bishop, Michael Madsen, Eric Balefour, Vinnie Jones, Leonor Varela, David Carradine, and Dennis Hopper. It features Tyler Stout art. The item can be viewed at http://auctions.emovieposter.com/Bidding.taf?_function=detail&Auction_uid1=1433530 It will be interesting to see what it sells for. These ARE from actual showings of the movie, so it seems they absolutely ARE "movie posters", but some might argue with that! What is YOUR opinion of these posters?
