Looks great. I liked this one, a combination of Superman and Batman.

If that's a huge pile what does large, big, medium, and small mean? Would small be a third of a poster?

That Batmanish one is indeed a great one.

"Looks great. I liked this one, a combination of Superman and Batman."

The Chinese on that poster is kinda bizarre: 生意兴隆财源广进, which is something like "May your business be successful and your fortune be grand", and is also a New Year's greeting. Not much to do with superheroes...

The poster for "Ironfinger" looked a lot like the movie used in "What's Up, Tiger Lily?"

Turns out, the two had a few cast members in common.
