looking for a picture/poster

the italian job mini cooper ad/movie poster. my boss has one on his wall but i cant google image search it worth a crap.

the bottom of it says something like 'starring the mini cooper s...' and then lists of car spec i believe. it looks a lot like the italian job movie poster tho.

Dude, you waited 20 minutes. Calm down. Give it ~24 hours, then rebump.

i know, I'm used to a forum tho, where you almost have replies before you have a chance to see your original post. and sometimes theres threads that get replies so fast, every time you refresh the thread, there's another couple pages.

Still doesn't make it right to bump a fresh thread here, especially when you were buried by only 1-2 other threads.

Back on topic. I did a couple google searches last night, and made it to page 20 in a few of them, didn't find anything like what you described.

I have one on my wall...it's the one with 3 MINIs driving down a set of stairs. With the Italian Job writing in the middle and the faded city background on top. I also tried to search for the poster to replace mine, because mines is a bit tattered from normal wear and tear. I want to frame the next one but can't seem to even find a image.

The only threads on NAM that still get a lot of posts are all those worthless spam threads with Random Word Game, Song Title Game, Word Association Game, etc. IMO that junk shouldn't be allowed on the site. Most of the smart technical people have left NAM because of reasons like those.

Cool down my friend. Cut him some slack, he's not the one in charge of what threads go up and what thread goes down. A lot of forums have those threads you mentioned because it's about having fun and building up a community. I may not fall into your smart or technical category but I do know what poster your talking about and can tell you it's probably not possible to obtain one anymore.

I am also interested that Italian Job poster or something similar. I have searched various movie poster website and come up empty. I have found a couple Italian Job II posters (with the movie stars not the cars on the poster).

Thanks for the imdb suggestion.
However, I still did not find what I was looking for. I would like a poster from Italian Job II but with the Minis instead of the actors. The one I keep finding has the actors with yellow stripes down the middle.

Amazon has the most Italian Job posters that I have seen (mostly the original movie) but for Italian Job II they still just have the poster with the actors with the stripes.

This is really one rare poster. I can't even find the image online... here's a picture of mine on the wall...



if your interested. I can take it and get it scanned at FEDEX/Kinkos and then I can digitally fix it on photoshop and e-mail it to you.

thats the pic. if you got it scanned that would be awesome. i just wanted it to show off every once in awhile, i probably wont print it out ever bigger than a 8.5x11.
ill have to get a picture of the one my boss has. like i said it almost looks painted, and its on canvas.
