BNAT 7 One Sheet

[Headgeek]

Posted this in the BNAT forum, but figured I'd share with all y'all.

Based on the 7th Voyage of Sinbad 3 sheet reformatted to a 1 sheet.

Hand painted by Gordon Jones to mimic the style of that original poster.

[John-Locke]

Now that is a thing of beauty, I notice Drewp is the Fluffer as usual.

Have fun.

[magicmonkey]

That poster is fantastic Harry. I like the face you are pulling as the girl with a beard fondles you. Outstanding.

[Adam Balm]

And we didn't get you anything, H@rry...

[Lord Voldemoo]

Beautiful, HK. Pissed I'm gonna miss out on the speed...

[Ribbons]

The dragon with the 3D glasses makes me smile

[bluebottle]

will it ever get tired to end a word with "mation" or "rama"?

i think not.

cheers, hairy.

[Pacino86845]

That one-sheet is totally money, Grande Rojo!

[Lord Voldemoo]

it's money-o-rama!

[wonkabar]

[DinoDeLaurentiis]

Holy crappa that's a like 74 different kinds of a the awesome, no? Congrats a to alla the putzes inna'volved inna it's a creation, eh?

[WinslowLeach]

Beautiful poster!! LMAO at "Fluffer: Mori McWeeny"

[so sorry]

who's the guy holding the genie bottle?

[Headgeek]

Cyclops = Father Geek
Sinbad = Harry
Princess = Moriarty
Genie = Tim League (owner of the Drafthouse and Genie)

Now - here's the challenge. You guys - take the poster and make it look old and beat up like a real movie poster from the 50s. the fold lines, tack holes on yellowing aged paper.

Harry

[John-Locke]

My guess would be that it's Tim League holding the genies lamp. I also have a feeling that the Psyclops is none other than Father Geek himself.

ETA: I was right.

Put us in that movie "God" asked you to make, and then we'll talk, Rojo. We're Zoners, goddangit, we don't come cheap.

[John-Locke]

Hows that?

ETA: The funny thing is I have bought my Brother Jason & the Argonaughts and Sinbad And The Eye Of The Tiger for christmas & my Sister Clash of the Titans, I'm spreading the Harryhausen love.

[tfactor]

can a cyclops watch a 3D movie?

[Headgeek]

Awesome John!

I'm having the posters printed on flat matte paper, technically old paper from the period with the right age. We're also going to have the 7434/05 in the bottom right corner. Heh. If we had time, I'd have every copy folded in eighths just like in the old days - cuz... well, I'm a fucking geek and that's the way it's done.

I'll take my personal copy - put lemon juice on it - bake the poster in the oven - and age it, degrade it and then get it linen backed. Heh.

I'm such a geek.

[magicmonkey]

Harry, you inspire us all with your geekdom. I may have to have a little attempt of my own to get a poster made of it.

[docfalken]

Gordon is such a bad ass. That poster looks great.

[Pacino86845]

Anyone know what Grande Rojo is referring to here? By the way, the one-sheet is on the main site, and Grande Rojo used John-Locke's version, where he aged the design!

Great stuff JL!

[John-Locke]

Hey thanks for the heads up Pacino, It is my version but it's been color corrected again, cool none the less.

Hairy just linked the zone on the main site at the bottom of the BNAT article, I wonder how many people will follow the link?

[athenabodicea]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!


But your poster looks awesome....

[thomasgaffney]

Yeah, but the link has a semi-colon instead of a colon and you a 404 error if you try to follow it.

[doglips]

The link does not work........

Glad your work is up on the main site though John.....Nice one!

[athenabodicea]

I tried the link too....
Doesnt work yet....


Whoo hoo!!!!

[The Garbage Man]

The smarter ones will be able to figure it out, though, which is what we're looking for here anyway.

1. Approximately 90% of all original one-sheets printed between 1939 and 2000 were distributed by the National Screen Service (NSS) and have NSS code numbers stamped on bottom margins or on their backs.

2. Up to the mid-1980s, most one-sheets were shipped folded. (Many still are.) Thus, most vintage posters will exhibit this creasing.

3. Motion picture studios often used more than one poster to promote a film, and each poster was designated a different "style." The style ("Style A," "Style B," etc.) was usually printed in a poster's lower border.

I had to Google this myself to be sure. The NSS. I didn't know about the folding.

Guilty. (And my first post in here, ever.)

[magicmonkey]

Welcome! You found us. You have taken your first steps into a larger world!

[Adam Balm]

Welcome aboard, SD. This place can be a little overwhelming at first, there's alot of in-jokes and self-referential stuff going on, so if you don't know something, ask.

[bluebottle]

Haha, it's one of the smarter ones!

Welcome!

[Lord Voldemoo]

Welcome SD, it's a little quiet in the Zone right now, don't worry, it's usually a little more happenin'

Welcome to Kurosawa as well...

[DinoDeLaurentiis]

Anna the first sperm, she reach a the egg, no?

Natural selection, she is inna the progress!

[vicious_bastard]

self-referential

Surely 'self-reverential'.

Pats self on back

[Miyazaki]

I cannot wait to hang that on my wall, outstanding poster.

*raises hand*

Guilty as charged! I clicked the link! I was one of those who was a part of the raffle for stand-by spots this morning at BNAT, but didn't make it in! I am really happy for those who did, though! I can't wait to hear what the line-up of movies was. I did hear in line this morning that it was probably going to last more like 28 hours instead of 24 hours.

[John-Locke]

28 hours???!!! WTF? Brocktune & Wonka are going to be fuckered, I still wish I was there though.

[CheriBomb]

I wish I was there, too! I tried to eavesdrop on as much as I could since I was pretty close to the door, and I did overhear something that gave me an idea about one of the movies they'll be seeing and I wish I was there to see it. *sigh* Oh well! Maybe I will have better luck next year getting into it! At least I have SXSW to look forward to in March!
