Cool Stuff: Limited Edition Posters For ‘The Bicycle Thief’ By Germain Lussier/Nov. 19, 2014 5:00 am EST In the limited edition poster game, you pretty much know the drill. You’re going to get really nice art for the same few dozen movies. It just so happens that movies like Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Jaws, etc. are the ones that most influenced the current crop of professional artists. In fact, it’s pretty rare that you get a piece of art for a movie that was made before 1975, let alone something foreign....

If and when the sequel is made, at least we can expect a crazy MacGruber 2 opening sequence....
