"Rent" Promotions - upcoming

I know there's already threads about the "Rent" poster and all that, but one of the previous threads mentioned something about individual posters of the cast (and many people said they didn't see that happening) -- So I wanted to address that.

I work at a movie theatre and just got 3 of the "Rent" posters today from my manager, and I've already asked my manager for ANY "Rent" item that comes in until November. That includes posters AND...

BANNERS. You know those long, enormous, vinyl banners that hang in the movie theater lobbies??... Direct from my theater's Promo Manager's mouth, Sony is releasing 8 LONG individual character banners! For EACH cast member!! (my guess would be using the pictures from that awesome wallpaper that was released!)

I just thought I'd inform you guys, and while they most likely won't be available in stores, I'd keep my eyes on eBay over the next few months if you want them (or find your nearest multiplex as FAST as possible and beg beg BEG the managers for them.)

I can't wait to get mine, eek!!

It's insane how many auctions for the promotional movie poster have already surfaced on e-bay !!!! Where did they get it already ?

Looks to me that someone already got autographs from the cast last week.....

Someone is selling a poster with some of the original cast....
look

and it ends soon. Wish I had the cash to buy it

Wish I would have had a movie poster when I was at bryant park to have them sign. That movie poster is KILLER. I love it.

from aprevious message
"yeah johnnyjune likes to plug her own auctions and pretend they aren't hers. it has been a while though I will give her that. it used to always be the some variation of the phrase "look what someone is selling! so great!" guess she forgot about the search feature where people could see every thread she posted in was plugging the same seller's auctions regardless of the thread subject. subtle. real subtle."

I want those banners, do you think that the theaters could sell them after?

I'm soooooo excited!

i hope theyre available in stores (the banners too), i dont think the movie theatres near me would give it out (i live in a very snobby town :-/ ).

For anyone in the LA area, there's a collectible show in City of Industry called Frank and Son Collectible show. They have it twice a week, Wednesday nights and Saturdays. There's one stand that sells all sorts of tv and movie posters/banners. They have older and newer posters, and my assumption would be that they would be the best bet for the kind of seller who would have the banners.

I plan on heading over there in the next few weeks - they usually get the new posters as they're released.

Ad_Libbing, I don't either. It's time for us to make some new friends!

Awwwww HELLZ NO! I'm gonna be going crazy for an Idina banner...elaborate on these banners...I don't understand what they are (sorry)...

I actually really wouldn't mind working at a movie theater. The local AMC is fairly sanitary, but a.) I already have a job and b.) I can't drive, and it's a bit too far to walk. Rats.

As for the banners, WickedRocks... you've probably seen them. They often hang from the ceilings in the lobbies of cinemas, and when they're there, they are hard to miss, since they're quite huge, most of the time.

I think that a large piece of cork board is in order.

Em baby, I am sure if someone can get it, it's you !!!
