  • The Prestige Movie Poster

    The Prestige

    £125.00

    “Are You Watching Closely?”

    Scarce, original one-sheet for Christopher Nolan’s 2006 real magic drama “The Prestige”. With a distinctive design by Crew Creative Advertising the two main characters Alfred Borden (Christian Bale) and Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) are featured offset against a spiral style background by Akisyoshi Kitaoka.  It’s an incredible optical illusion design that actually appears to move – it really is quite striking. Originally rolled (as issued) this displays superbly and represents an exceptional piece of collectable original film memorabilia. Perhaps over-looked by Nolan’s other masterpieces he has made many great films – and this one is most definitely one of them!

    Trivia:The word “prestige” originally meant a trick, from the Latin “praestigium”, meaning “illusion”.

  • Transformers Movie Poster

    Transformers

    £175.00

    “The name Megatron was originally rejected by Hasbro for being too scary. Bob Budiansky, the writer tasked with naming the characters, argued that, as a villain, his name should be scary.”

    Hasbro’s Transformers was one of the most popular animated TV shows  and toy-lines of the 1980s. being so successful that it warranted a big screen, cinematic movie “Transformers: The Movie” and then forty years later a special cinema experience developed by Hasbro that combined key episodes and new features with the original voice actors for both Megatron (Frank Welker) and Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen) was released in cinemas worldwide for a strictly limited three day screening run. With colourful and exciting action-packed poster artwork promising everything that the award winning fantasy cartoon TV series offered and more. These posters are extremely scarce with this originally rolled (as issued) example a marvellous item of retro nostalgia. Totally feel good, original cinematic movie memorabilia for a franchise and toy-line that has weathered the test of time with a series of reimagined big budget CGI Michael Bay blockbusters and is just as popular today as it was when first released.

    Trivia: In 2006, Peter Cullen said, “I kind of modeled Optimus Prime’s voice out of many people I had known over the years, my family especially. My brother was a captain in the Marine Corps, and a very big hero in my life. His approach to serious situations was always calm and controlled [and] authoritative. So my brother is in there. Even my dad, too, [and] former friends who have now departed but are strong in my memory.” The voice has also been compared to that of John Wayne, but Cullen said, “John Wayne was never intended to be the sound, but he did come out every now and then.”

  • The Usual Suspects Movie Poster

    Usual Suspects

    £125.00

    “Five Criminals…One Line Up…No Coincidence.”

    A classic movie poster from a classic 90’s crime thriller. A lovely rolled (as issued) Japanese B2 movie poster for Bryan Singer’s 1995 thought provoking mystery thriller “The Usual Suspects”. The clever imagery has the memorable line-up scene featuring the five ‘usual suspects’ – Kevin Pollak, Stephen Baldwin, Benicio Del Toro, Gabriel Byrne and Kevin Spacey. This Japanese poster design shows Kevin Spacey WITH a watch on. Many other posters from the U.S. and other countries had the watch removed as it gave clues to the film’s surprise ending. This example displays to excellent effect and represents a great looking item of original cinematic movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: Verbal Kint says, “The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist.” This quote from the French poet Charles Baudelaire also appears in End of Days (1999), also featuring Gabriel Byrne and Kevin Pollak.
