Star Wars Return of the Jedi Japanese movie poster”, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
One of five distinct styles of B2 for Return of the Jedi. This is the only art style featuring the characters.
Totoro JR tie up poster, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
I believe this is the only other style of B1 for Totoro. The other one is very similar but without all of the JR business in the lower margin. While the other style is more popular with collectors, in my experience they are just about the same as far as scarcity.
Dark Knight Japanese B1 Burning Building advance, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
Last of the Dark Knight Advance collection!
No new posters to post tonight — not that I don’t have any, just out of time tonight!! Back tomorrow with more…
So, a quick reminder that there are some fantastic posters available in emovieposter’s Thursday night auctions ending, well, Thursday 7/16/09.
This is no ordinary Thursday night, this is part 2 of emovieposter’s mini/major auction, and it has some major Japanese items like:
Breakfast at Tiffany’s Two panel R69
Le Mans 2 panel
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Yellow Submarine
and probably fifty more very nice Japanese posters (among the hundreds of excellent items). If you know posters, you know a couple of the titles above rarely come up, and are being featured on emovieposter for the first time EVER.
Check it out folks.
Passengers Japanese B1, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
Passengers, featuring Anne Hathaway. B1, double sided.
Annie Liebovitz Life Through A Lens Japanese B1, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
Scarce poster for the Liebovitz retrospective. B1, matte stock.
Dark Knight Japanese B1 Cityscape advance, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
There are several advance posters for the Dark Knight in the B1 size, and this is probably the rarest. If not, it’s right up there. Certainly this is scarcer than the Heath Ledger/Joker version — I know, blasphemy!! I think that this one is from much earlier than the others, as it only states the year and the title with no credits. The other advances all have the release date from August 2008 and also have credits (with the exception of course of the Joker double-half B1 glossy version).
The Life Before Her Eyes Japanese B1 size movie poster (Uma Thurman), originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
I don’t know anything about this film, but I do like this poster quite a bit. Very different from the usual fare, and I suppose reminds me a bit of Lost in Translation. This is pretty tough to get; I’ve only seen one or two in the B1 size.
Twilight Japanese B1 size movie poster, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
Rounding out the Twilight collection, here is the larger B1 size featuring the best art for this film (except for the banner, which has many more stars — can’t go wrong with adding MORE STARS!).
Monsters VS Aliens Japanese B1 movie poster, originally uploaded by japanese-movie-posters.
I like this version so much better than the very standard “every single character” version. Much more fun in my opinion — and this is the only one of these I have seen for sale.
