Here's my Dune DVD signed by Sting backstage when he came here to Roanoke for a concert......



My Dad handed him the DVD to sign and he said "Oh no not Dune again". LOL

not mine, but I got it as a b-day gift for my brother: saw Stella in Seattle last month, bought their "Stella Shorts" DVD and got Michael Showalter, David Wain, and Michael Ian Black to sign it. Even got Michael Black to write "I Love U Justin" on it, then David wrote "Love you Justin, you are great!"

I didn't get my DVD signed, but took my "State by State with the State" book with me, and got their autographs with some cool messages.

I have only one DVD signed....

PULP FICTION Collector's Edition - Sam Jackson.

I asked him to sign it: TO A BAD MOTHER *****ER
but he said he would not write that. I found the strange...oh well.

I have several movie posters signed though.

I don't know, I don't think that's that surprising. I usually just let them sign whatever they want on their own- personalized, not personalized, with their character name in quotes, it's all good with me.

My brother was thinking about having QT write a quote from one of his movies, but I told him not to. If QT writes something on his own, then THAT would be awesome but if he writes it because my brother told him to write that's kinda cheesy.

The only ones I have are:

just a week ago i bought "Shock Waves" for 6.99 used, then noticed it was signed by Ken Wiederhorn. I had never heard of the film, or of him, and I haven't watched it yet.

I also got a lobby card signed by three of the main actors in "The Business of Fancy Dancing" - Evan Adams, Michelle St. John, and someone else who i can't recall. Sherman Alexie wasn't there, but I have gotten a book signed by him in the past.

I also have books signed by movie related artists - HR Giger and Joel Peter Witkin and Bette Midler for instance.

Its funny - i have a huge collection of art and photo books that I have signed by some very well-known artists, but I haven't gotten into collecting signed dvds or even cd's. It just doesn't seem as, oh, how shall i say, significant of a medium as having a book signed? I don't know if that came out right - i don't mean to demean dvd's (i do own 1300 of them after all).

There's one blank page left that I'm saving for Sam and Ted Raimi (hopefully someday)

Here's Bill Plympton. Interesting guy to talk to.



A fun guilty pleasure....



Here is Elvira in her "civilian clothes". She's too cool and easy to talk to. A great sense of humor.


I have about 10 signed DVDs now. My latest additions:

The Goonies - Richard Donner (director)

X-Men 1.5 - Richard Donner (exec producer), Lauren Shuler Donner (producer)

Tom: Did you meet the Donners at the L.A. Comic show? I was thinking of going to that one but eh my first experience with that show wasn't that great (T3/Arnie)

Plus they didn't specify whether they were signing anything on the website. How was the crowd size?

Hey chucks888

Yes, that is where I saw them. The crowd was large but not "arnold-size". Plus the press coverage wasn't there.

The website hinted, but didn't commit to saying they would sign incase they pulled an "arnold" but they stayed and signed. They were very nice people. When Lauren saw I had the XMen1.5 DVD she was telling me fans will be happy with the X2 DVD set. When I asked her, in a very nice way, if they were going to put out a "X2.5" later she said probably not since this will be very packed

Oh, I was pretty close to the front (seat #7) and after person #10 got stuff signed they (Bruce) announced they would only sign 1 item each.

Very very cool! Thanks for sharing that- always interested in reading the 'experience' of others. Glad it worked out good for you that time!

I have the Nine Inch Nails dvd signed by Trent (they did a signing), Kevin Smith signature on Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back (from a comic show) and I'll eventually get Dancer in the Dark and The Rock signed by David Morse since I see him whenever I work.

Evil Dead II LE Tin Signed by Bruce Campbell - Kind of sucks though since the marker didn't adhere to the tin very well and is slowly deteriorating.

MST3K - The Movie signed by Mike Nelson.

The I Drink Your Blood disc that has all the signatures (Lynn Lowry is the only one I can recall offhand, but there are like 4 or 5 signatures on it).

The John Waters Collection Vol. 1 signed by John Waters and Ricki Lake.

Jason X signed by Kane Hodder.

Phenomena by Jennifer Connelly.

I'm The One That I Want and Notorious Cho both signed by Margaret Cho.

Cannibal Ferox signed by John Morghen (Could be fake - purchased off Ebay - but from a very reputable seller, so who knows).

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back and Chasing Amy by Kevin Smith.

Non-DVD Related:

Return of the Living Dead vhs and Silent Night Deadly Night (The old 80's "Big Box" vhs) signed by Linnea Quigley.

2000 Maniacs (another of the 80's "Big Box" vhs releases) by H.G. Lewis.

Original Happy Birthday To Me one-sheet signed by Melissa Sue Anderson.

Original one-sheet of The Doll Squad signed by Ted V. Mikels and Tura Satana.

Vintage Half-sheet of Straight-Jacket by Joan Crawford.

Dawn of the Dead poster signed by George Romero and Tom Savini. Not the Theatrical release poster - it looks like some kind of promotional poster that was probably sent out to investors before the movie was filmed. It has details about the "upcoming production" and provides some contact information, including the telephone contact for Romero! (or maybe it was the production company - the poster has been in storage forever and I can't remember). I did try the number though - of course it didn't work.

Original rare double-sided Theatrical poster of MST3K - The Movie signed by the entire cast. Out of everything "collectible" I own, this is my personal favorite.

A Father's Story (Book) signed by Lionel Dahmer (Jeffrey's Father) - probably the creepiest thing I own.

If Chins Could Kill... (Book) signed by Bruce Campbell. (Personally inscribed "Roy - Come Get Some! Bruce Campbell"). Another Favorite.

I Hated, Hated, Hated this Movie (Book) signed by Roger Ebert.

Not an autograph, but still cool - I have one of the prop alien guns from the beginning of Night of the Creeps.

Some other stuff I can't recall (mostly posters), since I have most of them sealed and in storage.

Roy

Any chance you can get a photo of that? If you ever look to sell, please email me first - I have been looking for a prop from that film for quite some time.

I recently had my Night of the Living Dead DVD (the actual disc) and case, as well as the case for Day of the Dead, signed by George Romero. Very cool guy. He volunteered to sign up to 3 items so I gladly produced 3.

You're a celebrity and live in Salt Lake City. Hmmm. Are you Jimmy Osmond?

I can't wait until they release The Great Brain on DVD.

At the moment it's wrapped in plastic and sealed in a box of foam peanuts in my storage closet. It came with a couple of movie stills from the scene and a letter of authenticity signed by the propmaster. I eventually want to find a case that will display everything nicely (I don't want to just stick it on the mantle or hang it on the wall).

I'll try to get a picture of it - I bought it at a charity auction in L.A. about 4 years ago and it came in a lot with some other horror/sci-fi type memorabilia that couldn't be identified. I've been wanting to get it all out and take pictures anyway to see if anyone could identify what (if any) films/shows they are from. There's some metallic (actually painted plastic) coins with weird markings, a shirt with fake blood stains and a hole through the chest area, a tin wristband with a red plastic jewel on the top, what looks like some pieces of miniatures, a burned/partially melted telephone handset and some other odds and ends. Most of it's probably just junk - I'm mainly interested in seeing if anyone can identify the shirt.

If I ever decide to sell it I'll let you know. Honestly though, I doubt I will ever sell it - It's a neat thing to have and should make a nice conversation piece if I ever get it displayed.
