Classic Movies came with a classic Poster that told us a story, and how to feel. Posters were fine art then and they don't make 'em like that anymore. One SHEET Inspiration is all we needed in classic Movie Posters of the 70s and 80s.

What a wonderful grouping of memories. This video was like an encyclopedia of my childhood. Thank you for reminding me of a bunch of posters that I have not thought about in years!

Thank you so much for your support. I am glad you liked it and I continue to discover "new" old ones that I love and miss...and make the modern ones look like doo doo.

Great video and subject. Very well done and deserving of a lot more views! My favourite era and genre for movie posters is the science fiction and monster movies of the 50s. Stunning artwork that was often far better than the films they represented!

THank you so much for the kind words, I love doing this....but yes, wish I could get more people watching. My marketing strategy does not seem to be working, lol. Thanks again, and although I keep my channel at a certain era...I LOVE the 1950s Posters, and even some from the 30s and 40s. Agreed on the artwork, fine art to tell a story and sell us on a movie....that are sometimes not as good as the poster, lol. Thanks again.

Thanks for a great video! Especially appreciate the "Capricorn One" coverage. One of my favorites, and an underrated film. Similar to "Death on the Nile," the poster for "Murder on the Orient Express" (1974) arranges the faces of the main characters to form the deadly dagger, topped by the locomotive itself. You touched briefly on Mad magazine. Have you considered an episode on movie posters with Jack Davis art? I'd bet your Gen-X audience would appreciate that. And also, there was a brief shot of "Spaceballs." What about an episode showcasing the unmistakable Mel Brooks movie poster art? Gen-X'ers would eat that up! Binging on your channel. Love the content! Expect more likes and comments. Paul

There a poster for the movie Animalypics, that when it released to theaters and later to HBO in 84 is different from the one seen on the Dvd.

THere was a lot of those changes for different outlets over the years, too.

not really a movie from 70s or 80s, but the poster for a Polish movie called 'On the Silver Globe' made me feel intrigued with it, to a point where I wanted to buy the poster even! But the poster I'm talking about is specifically with a man looking towards the viewer, it's such a well done poster :>

Well, intrigued, I look at it, and I am not kidding when I say the subject stared right through my soul. It is striking. I think it is 1988 movie. Not one I know or in the pop culture zeitgeist, but still AWESOME. Thanks for introducing me to it.

Evil Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, 1&2, love the breakfasts Club poses, umm Breakfast Club,all Hughes movies,Millers Crossing had a great poster, The Star Trek posters were amazing. There is sonething to be said about video posters and standies, my friend and me use to hang out at our local video store Video Escape, and the dude would give us extra posters he had or old ones, nd standies, my favorite one was this giand display for Critical Condition with Ricard Pryor. Ive collected ever since then, dont really have any right now, except my Virus one sheet and my Friday tge 13th part 1 one sheet.

The original artwork of The Towering Inferno (painted by artist John Berkey) sold at auction for $350.000 in 2023.

Doesn't surprise me. The artwork in that era (especially the 70s) had such a raw style that made us use our imaginations. Love those so much. Thank you for sharing that.
