cl_19 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Hi What do you guys think having framed movie posters in you apartment says about you? I’m talking about 10 dotted around the hallway mostly. What about in the bedroom, lounge etc? Cool or childish in the eyes of a woman? I'm 25 from Northern USA btw if that makes any difference.
pteromom Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Depends on you and what things are important to you in your life. If being a movie buff is a big part of who you are, I don't think it is childish. But if you just have them functioning as art when it isn't a big part of you, I'd say it is childish and it's time to move on to "real" art. If it is the first and you really love your movie posters, there are things you can do to make them less childish looking. Get GOOD quality frames for them. Make sure your other accessories are more mature and that your rooms are put together well. Have grown-up things like throw pillows and nice curtains and plants (real or silk). The main thing is that it looks like the room is put together, and not a college dorm.

The Way I Am Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 have 10 ****ty romcoms or vampire crap posters for when she comes over. That's a perfect idea if you're trying to convince women that you're gay. 1
pettie Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 This reminded me of my boyfriend's last flat. His flatmates managed to get not a poster, but this --> http://www.thefable.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/potc-display.jpg a big, human-sized, carton display!!!! And it was like, there, in the middle of the living room. Not exactly this one, but one of the same movie. No idea how the flatmates got that, walked back home and carried it to the 8th floor!! :laugh: My boyfriend said it was already there when he moved in. I DID think it was childish, but it was way too funny to not laugh. His flatmates were indeed young (around 19 yo, I think).
irc333 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 I have movie posters (framed) from the big Marvel movie hits that have been coming out recently. Since it's the "in" thing now...anyways. Pretty awesome stuff. ;-) Considering getting a Dark Knight Rises poster now that you bring it up.
