(that's a Bang & Olufsen BeoVision 4 in case anyone's interested).
Why would you have that monstrosity instead of getting a proper 4k (or mayve even 8k at those prices) projector setup, that would look considerably better?

Harrods had a 76" Gold leaf LG plasma. That was a gorgeous piece of kit.

Previous owner of my house left scarface and goodfellas posters in the garage. Gave them to my mate as I had no use for them, but they looked pretty good.
They were pretty big aswell, probably 5'x3'

I'd actually go for some old B-Movie type ones. The really outrageous sci fi ones from the 70's

I didn't use them, but they were decent looking posters.

Is that right that I've just read that TV is £85K and the remote control is an extra £600. I love the styling of the B&O stuff but that is just bloody ridiculous and apparently the Panasonic insides can be had in a slightly uglier shell for half that price.

Hey,
As part of a house extension that we are looking to do in the summer we will have a lounge/movie room. It's going to be roughly 2m by 4m so mot massive but great for what we want it to do.
One idea is to have 10-12 movie posters framed on the wall; so far I've found 8 that I am keen on.
1. Jaws
2. Back To The Future
3. Trainspotting
4. Rocky
5. Pulp Fiction
6. The Dark Knight Rises
7. Forrest Gump
8. Ghostbusters
Other ideas bouncing round are Fight Club, Silence Of The Lambs, The Shawshank Redemption, The Matrix and Gladiator.
What films would you go for if you were doing similar?
Why would you want Dark Knight Rises over Dark Knight?
Personally I'd get rid of Forrest Gump and add:
Toy Story
Watchmen
Alien
Terminator 2
The Departed
No Country for Old Men
Die Hard
And one or two newer super hero movies, as they tend to have great posters.

Yep. It's a stupid amount of money for a telly. And if you want the matching stand, that's another £28k!

Cheers everyone, there's some cracking ideas in there. More choices than wall space!
Balling - I've not seen a Dark Knight one that I prefer over that.
ed - The Star Wars one look really good, where is it available?

They're by Olly Moss and were probably sold by him from his website a few years ago. You can normally find originals from eBay or here: http://expressobeans.com
I've noticed quite a few fakes and copies going around on eBay too if you're into that sort of thing (it's a popular/limited edition print so originals will be pricey).
