that's gorgeous tats.
nat- sue has a lot of pin-up girl stuff too- she loves betty page.
I forgot to mention I also have a David Blaine Frozen in Time poster. I saw that freak at two of his endurance stunts- the one where he buried himself and the frozen in time one. the burial one- guy looked out his mind. He was laying there tapping his pillow like he was just counting his taps to keep from going bananas.

Oh, I thought this really meant what posters you had in your crib in the non-slang sense. That would be a good topic but I don't think anyone would remember.
I don't like things on walls. Walls should be bare unless they are coving up holes in the wall.

It works best if I just show you and describe:
(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/posters1.jpg) Above and behind my computer/editing station from left to right are: -Frighteners - This is a holographic poster that changes as you move, the skull opens his jaw and the words "Dead Yet" move in and out. -DTS - Nice looking poster for a cool theatrical sound system. -Dolby Digital EX - Another sound system poster that looks cool. -Nightmare Before Christmas - Pure awesome. I wish the DVD version had better quality, though. It's much worse than most DVDs. **awaits Blu-ray release**
(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/posters2.jpg) In the same room on the back wall are: -Kill Bill 2 - I like the first movie better, but the second movie (which is still awesome) has the better poster. -Toy Story - Got this from the theater when the movie first came out. In later editions, Woody's frown was changed into a smile. Gay. -Pirates of the Caribbean - The movie is OK, but the poster is fantastic!
(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/posters3.jpg) Downstairs in my "old-school" gaming room are: -SDDS - Another theatrical sound system (Sony Dynamic Digital Sound). I like the look of this poster. -Dolby Digital - Yes, another Dolby poster. This poster is decent, but the artwork kind of bugs me since I am anal retentive about perspective.
(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/posters4.jpg) On the back wall in the same room: -After Burner - Yeah!! You may think the PC Engine version is teh r0x0rz, but the 32X version blows it away.
(http://www.joeredifer.com/crap/posters5.jpg) Above my HDTV set in my "Dreamcast generation and above" room is: -Dolby Digital giant marquee sign - They accidentally made this too big for the marquee. -THX "Broadway" - The classic THX logo. In order to even get one of these, your theater must be THX certified. Not too many THX certified theaters around anymore.

Haha, I have the EXACT same print of that. The thing was given to me as an omiyage by a Japanese roommate I had when she went back home for the holidays. However, the I took it down some years ago because it was also a calendar of heisei 16-nen (2004). I plan to put it back up at the new place once I move out this summer.
At this point, on my walls are a couple event posters of 2004 Korean (motorcycle) Roadrace Championship Series in which I competed.

Silly goose, that power base converter won't work in your SNES! :p
What? Why not? I thought I couldn't get it to work because it was the wrong color.
Quote from: Tatsujin
if there is only a way to vanish the "GENESIS" logo, since it doesn’t deserve to be on that great poster due to such a bad port of such a great game.
There is. The Genesis logo isn't actually a part of the poster. It is a cut out attached with Scotch Tape. I put it on there long ago when I was psyched for the Genesis version (which was crap). If I removed it, it would look pretty much like Turbo D's Clone Stamp version. I am afraid to try and remove it since I think the tape will tear the poster. Not sure.

I def. could handle a cool Turbo Grafx poster. Does anybody have one?? I've never seen any.
I have this: (http://cache.g4tv.com/images/ImageDb3/041/127/image41127/41127_L.jpg)
NEW YEARS EVIL one sheet (that image is only half of the poster)
I have a bunch of other cult movie one sheets but not hung up. Some of them are glued to cardboard and sitting in the corner - the one that's facing out most of the time is BASKET CASE 2 that looks kind of like the front of this DVD

You're hardcore Joe. Not many would hang up posters for sound systems, no matter how cool the artwork. :clap:
I don't have much shit hanging on the walls - just a Army of Darkness movie poster and a great big Playboy bunny logo poster. If I ever set up a proper home theater, I'll have to pick up a few more to decorate the walls.

I used to have a huge Roland banner but I lost it a few years ago...dunno where it went. Oh well.
