Fun thread. Lots of great stuff in here
I've scaled back quite a bit over the last couple years and have focused on collecting quality posters for movies that I really like.
João Ruas' Ran (Jiro) is my favorite poster of 2017. Ran is a magnificent film - my favorite by Kurosawa - and all 3 of Ruas' posters for it are stunning. Taro is the biggest, but Jiro is the most striking.
The hype is real. Matthew Woodson's 2001: A Space Odyssey is ethereal. 2001 is one of my all-time favorite movies and I love purple prints.
As a collector of Kilian Eng Sci-fi movie posters and a huge fan of Blade Runner, I was thrilled to add these to the collection. Not sure which I prefer.
Gilles Vranckx's Le Samourai posters look like Criterion covers. I like them both, but lean towards the variant (on the left).
More 2001: A Space Odyssey, this time by Kevin Tong. Variant ftw. The foil has a cool effect when the light hits hit.
Bring on 2018

Srysly doe great pick up thread this year, y'all killin it. On that note, has there ever been a "worst pick ups of xxxx" thread? Could be a fun and, or at least grossly interesting discourse. Would def compensate for all these effing holiday vibes, but i guess there are asshole altoids that would some how ruin a thing like that.
Happy Holidays ya EBers!
Landland (Dan Black) Arcade Fire Mexico pencil and ink. This was a fantasy come true.

Landland test print that worked so well it couldn't have been planned better.
