A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

I mostly collect Japanese chirashi posters. They're flyers used to promote movie releases, double sided, 7" x 10". I keep them in a porfolio although I've had a few framed. They're cheap to buy and easy to store/display, plus there's some fantastic designs and art, a lot of them different to the official posters released in the west. Here's an example:





Aside from that I've a few framed one sheets and prints.

Especially when it comes to displaying them in California... earthquake country.

Nick, I assume you're getting these off ebay?

The only movie posters I have are Low-run editions of LOTR posters; rolled up/tubed, my favorite of them being the Arwen/Aragorn/Eowyn back-to-back poster from TTT.

Otherwise I have rolled up canvas paintings from Italy and France (shipped that way, they're fine).. do those count?

Oh.. I have a Michael Parkes poster (and several of his prints) that he released only to his gallery in Spain, to one in NYC and to one here in Cambria, years ago;.. loved his stuff in the 90's, and I got him to sign it to me, as well as a book of some of his work.

I got a picture with him, but I cut loose the friend that took it with his camera years ago, and the couple times I've asked him, he's failed to produce it. Such is life.

I have 3 framed so far:




I eventually plan to get them all framed. I'm really trying not to start a full blown collection but I'm failing bad. My original intention was to get a few and frame them. Now its kind of gotten out of hand but I'm having a great time collecting them.

He's a Hulk villain from the 70s. I'm shocked that you don't remember him.
