Spice Girls: Spice World The Movie postcards

A set of postcards depicting the 5 members of then widely popular Spice Girls (left to right):

The sixth design shows the common reverse for all the 5 postcards. The promotional postcards were jointly issued by the Cathay Organisation and Golden Village for the Spice Girls' new movie Spice World The Movie which opened on 27 Jan 1998 in Singapore. I did not catch that movie but I still love some of the songs from this UK group like Wannabe, Viva Forever and 2 become 1. BTW I think Emma is the cutest :-D

Trivia: Can you name Scary, Baby, Posh, Ginger and Sporty?

A Knight's Tale Movie Towel/ Postcards

A Knight's Tale Towel

Postcard Design #1 and Postcard Design #2

This 2001 movie stars Heath Ledger in the role of a peasant squire. He aspires to be a knight and takes over the identity of his master when he dies suddenly, jousting in tournaments for a living. It is a tale of love and honour, how seemingly unsurmountable odds can be overcome and dreams can come true. In the end, he not only wins the love of a Princess but also gets his Knighthood. Very nice movie.

The Mask of Zorro Postcards

Official postcards promoting the 1998 movie The Mask of Zorro. There are 2 designs. one with the silhouette of Zorro on the left , the other with the trademark Zorro logo on the right. The design in the middle is common for the 2 postcards. I really liked the Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones pairng for the movie. She looked absolutely ravishing in the movie. Just writing this blog makes me want to watch the movie again haha.

Straits Times report: Star Wars collectible postcards

Promotional postcards for Star Wars Ep II, Attack of the Clones. This is an article published in The Straits Times dated 3 April 2002. TCF organised the release of nine postcards with one new design introduced on a weekly basis to 'get people excited about the movie, and to introduce the good and bad guys to the public'. Supposedly 20,000 postcards of each character could be picked up at cinema lobbies nationwide. Being a Star Wars fan, these beautiful memorabilia could not be missed. I set out to collect the series of 9 postcards but the 1st featuring Anakin Skywlker proved elusive and could nowhere be found. Initially I couldn't understand why, but set off determined to get the remaining postcards . I reasoned the collectors who were fortunate to get the 1st postcard would set about collecting the remaining 8 cards with the same amount of fervour. I smelled a rat when that didn't prove to be the case at all! The remaining 8 postcards could be found in reasonably large quantities at the cinema lobbies for weeks after they were available for the taking. It didn't make sense for true-blue Star Wars fans to collect only the 1st postcard and forget the rest. I got my answer soon enough surfing for clues on Yahoo Auctions. I discovered there were ready sellers for the Anakin Skywalker cards at the Princely sum of $10!!! And these sellers apparently had loads of the 1st postcard to sell!!! I have never seen more selfish and unscrupulous people who turned this into $$$ making opportunity! Made me really fed up, anyway to date I don't have the 1st one and still feeling sore about it.

I will scan the postcards I own and post on the blog soon.

Batman and Robin Movie postcards

A set of 5 promotional glossy movie postcards from the Batman & Robin movie in 1997. Dont know why there were so many discussions and on the supposedly gay relationship between Batman/Robin? Arnie's the one they should be paying attention to! His performance as Mr Freeze is outstanding. To date I still remember this quote from Mr Freeze: You're not sending me to the cooler! I want so much to it ask Arnie this question: Why do you want to be a boring politician??? Quit fooling around and come back to acting! MILLIONS OF FANS LOVE U AND ARE WAITING FOR YOUR RETURN!

ok

got it out of my system
