Rewired with a power switch and standard plug, installed LED tubes, and mounted to the wall. 3 down, 2 to go. Will finish that Sunday. I have university class tomorrow.
Of course, can't add a pic all of a sudden. Lol... oh well, later

33" wide, 54" high, 6" deep for each. Lol. They look really small in the theater. Lol.
And... final look. All that's left is to clean up the mess, and put back the DVDs all around them.

I think what it comes down to is a simple concept. The best gamerooms are not the ones that hold the most expensive or.rare things. It is the one that reflects YOU. That concept was my inspiration to jump into the poster thing.
Gamerooms that inspire me where the ones that CLEARLY define the person.
Mrhide's Little Tokyo... brilliantly chaotic. Lol
Heisenberg's racing lounge. Welcoming, and redneckishly classy. Lol
Chris Silver's barcade. As welcoming as he is. Have a beer at the bar, watch cheezy movies, and have a great time.
So, my inspiration? What got me going as a kid. Campy movies, vintage games... and every item in there will represent a part of me. Right down to the click on my mante, which my grandmother owned. Every sign, every game... all have a significance.
So, the posters are a nod to times as a kid when we all got excited about an upcoming movie, and the posters that are up are all movies that shaped my youth.
Hope this inspires people. Get something that represents you. That means something. Game changer.

Tabarnak. They multiplied. Lol
Picked up a large double frame (4'x5') and 7 small frames 26×18, which included 7 header boxes. More to wire!
Also stopped by Toeckeder's to pick up backglasses. Fantastic to catch up a bit!
