I am posting the front and back of the postcard sized piece. There is a printed sparkley silver seal on the front as well.
Very nice piece overall, especially for us Disney collectors...

I picked up a few of these tonight when i went to see Ghost Rider , Mine are all "Regal"
I have Extras to Trade

cardaddictToday I saw THE ARTIST and picked up these posters. Unfortunately no JOHN CARTER freebies. So I guess AMC does not have the cards or they were all gone.
I've seen 8 of the best picture nominees now and HUGO is far and away the best movie of the year no matter what the academy says. So there!

cardaddictI sailed off to the theater today to Sea (get it - sea? oh, never mind) TITANIC in 3D, which I enjoyed very much even though this was the 5th time I've seen it. Also managed to snatch these items:

miket999My son gave me one of the John Carter posters printed on nice paper. I also picked up a Titanic poster on the same nice paper. The last movie I went to had the little Titanic Boarding Pass which I picked up a few of. These were all at Regal Theatres.

cardaddictDarn, I never saw a TITANIC poster on the better paper. And the 'boarding passes' were behind the counter, the cashier put my ticket inside it, so they are only giving them out to paying customers. I could read it during the movie when the two young girls down front turned their cell phones on about half a dozen times during the movie. I am of course exaggerating, but I WISH!!!! there was some way to REALLY ban the use of these devices during movies. I'll never understand the total addiction and slavery people have to those things. (I don't own or need one myself)

miket999I only picked up 2 of the Titanic posters myself. Gave 1 to my sons girlfriend and kept the other. To be honest, for me, posters are a storage nightmare... I only pick up what I really, really want to have and might frame....
As for cellphones in the theatre, don't get me started. I wish the theatres would put in a device to block cell signals within the building. That would stop most of it.. Some schools use such devices so students cannot text, etc during the school day. There needs to be more use of such technology....

April 21, 2012, 06:44 PM
cardaddictSorry, no. Where I went it was one to a customer. They handed it to me after I bought my ticket.
April 21, 2012, 10:32 PM
BILLZEEOK, thanks for that quick reply. Its a neat item & looks like it might display in a 4-pocket page?
April 22, 2012, 08:13 PM

How big is the Beauty and the Beast promo? I have others that are 5" x 7" but I haven't seen that one yet. Thanks.

ArtistHi Juelle Lou, which cinema you get those cards from?
May 08, 2012, 09:47 AM
Juelle LouThe Beauty and the Beast is 14 1/2 cm x 21cm and is a fold out, which I didn't really show in my first photo. Here's a better photo, top left is the front, top right is the back and the one at the bottom is the inside.
The Bel Ami is 10 1/2 cm x 15 cm approx. and is a fold out which I showed the front and the middle. I grabbed a couple of spares of both if anyone is interested. I could probably go back and get more if anyone was really desperate for the Beauty and the Beast promo, I know they still had some when I went and saw the Avengers, the Bel Ami ones were all gone though.
Oh, and I picked them up at the Birch, Carroll and Coyle cinema here. They are the only chain of cinemas here in Queensland, Australia, that I know of.
