It's a great, underrated Coppola film. I'm not feeling this poster as much as I'd expected, though :/

It’s a great time to be a collector...if you collect pins and tikis.

I too miss the olden days but I’ve also moved on from needing a 20th Jurassic Park poster. Seems to be some gems from time to time but it’s a lot less exciting now as it was 10 years ago. Mondo has like 50 unsold posters sitting there. We used to have just one (Finn and Jake). Seems all of these galleries are experiencing the same. Market is saturated, flipping is low, new blood is low. Most stuff is easy to get now so the thrill is gone. Harrumph!

Luls. I’d say above average, to my liking; nothing to be crazy about though. The poster is nice, lol.

^ According to the receipts, the last Mondo purchase I made was in 2016 apparently, lol. And it was an LP. I sure bought a lot before that and especially in pre-Shopify era. Not sure why. Maybe that’s why I don’t anymore. Now thinking I should pass tomorrow as well. Luls.

P. S. 2016 seems way too far in past. I feel like I bought fudge from them after that. Maybe using another email. I bought a few things from Bottleneck for sure. Of the top of my head, the “doyled” Jaws print, a Blade Runner, and 2001 come to mind.

I think I got the answers I wanted which is some are more willing to work for Mondo than others but various issues exist and as you all have said, maybe they have just moved on (kind of like I have for the most part). Life goes on. You buy a house, have a kid, focus on other things. The only one I really miss is Moss just because his perspective was always so refreshing. His take on a property was always different than anything I could have imagined.

Poster seems pretty good, but put me in the "never heard of it" camp. 🤷‍♂️

Although if you watch it make sure it’s this new cut. Way better than the original.
