I am 16 years old and i have come t realization that I am an alcoholic. I have realized how much my problem is driving everyone i care about away. I was wondering if anyone new of any sites where i could talk to someone about my problem and get help.

please help me =/ (link)

You are very brave for admitting you have a problem and for wanting help. People who really want help with their addictions to drugs or alcohol usually succeed in beating them. I say this as I went through seeing my best-friend in recovery at your age. He's done well career and family wise. You will too, I'm sure.

The next step is to tell your family the truth that you are in trouble with alcohol and whatever else you may be addicted to and tell them you need help. Then visit here and ask A.A. or Alateen what your next steps should be. http://www.al-anon.alateen.org/



okay so to get one thing staright
I DO NOT HAVE HERPIES
but i've recently been having these bumps on my face
like around my mouth and lip
it's not like i've never broken out before
but never like this
and usually i can get rid of them pretty fast
but these are taking longer to get rid of them
i don't know what's wrong??
are they like normal bumps/blackheads??
and there not like i can pop them so i'm guessing there like white/blackheads (link)

None of us are doctors. Having not seen your face close up we're at a disadvantage to try and tell you what it is. What you need to do is see your family doctor who will refer you to a dermatologist to check it out. It's not life-threatening and won't kill you. I rather doubt it's herpes or any kind of disease.

From what you told us it sounds like a reaction to something or an outbreak. Are you using new shaving cream, after shave lotion, perfumed soap, etc. etc. if you have been sing something on your face that you never did before that could be your problem.

If not, I would make an appointment with your doctor who can advise you on how to care for it. It's not that we don't want to help you (much to the contrary) but we can't not having seen what your face looks like and us not being doctors.


is masturbation different from fingering someone?
or they both the same? (link)

Masturbating refers to doing it yourself alone usually and fingering is when a male does this to the female. It's the same exact thing except that one individual is having it done to them rather than doing it themselves.


Okay so I just saw it, but I left just as the credits started. So now I know that something happens at the very end with the monster or something but I left earlier than the very end so I'm so curious to knowww!!! Is there any way I can see it without having to go back and watch it again? Or just explain it please (link)

If you had your ticket stub you could have approached the manager afterward and explain what you missed and why. You can only do that after the movie and before you left.

If you have a valid reason they will let you see that part and send an usher in to get you. This is what they did for me when I was on medication that caused me to doze off during a film once. I had an hour to get myself better and they let me stay.

Also, if you are sick and can prove you were in the bathroom dealing with it they can give you a courtesy pass for next time. Once you leave the theater you're pretty much on your own. You'll have to pay again.

However, there are film reviews and documents that may spoil the plot outright. I found one here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloverfield

I warn anyone who hasn't seen the movie not to click the link because the article is one gigantic spoiler. I recommend you see it again. It's better that way and apparently is a great popcorn flick.


In a couple months I'm going to try out for my schools S-Troupe. S-Troupe is a club at my school of writers, performers, and artists dedicated to the production and performance of original, expressive, written work. Simply put: the members of S-Troupe write, produce and, finally, perform their own poetic, dramatic, but mostly comedic scenes and sketches on stage or on video and film.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCZ62GezK6M (That's one of the performance. It's really great)

I really want to do this, because I love just joking around and having a reason just to act completely crazy. I'm a writer and I don't have much acting experience but I really want to do this. I'm not shy at all with my friends and I know I can do it...but when I get in front of people I don't know I tend to be shy and freeze up and I don't want to do that at auditions.

Does anyone have any tips for auditioning for these sort of things, it's sort of like drama club. Is there anything
I can do to prepare myself more? Any excercises or anything. I've never done anything like this, but I want to make it.

Does (link)

You need to focus on the writing and be confident in that first. This, more so than the performance is what they are focused on.

The performance certainly counts but if you don't have a quality sketch, poem or dramatic piece for stage, video or film you won't get in. You have to make sure that the meaning and strength of your piece isn't lost due to the quality of film, camcorder, video etc.

You can have a glossy and perfectly edited film segment but if the material is bad or difficult to enjoy with added sound in editing....
Auditions scare a lot of performers but they shouldn't.

What you need to understand is that the people in that room are hinging on every word you have to say and that those words are important. Believe in what you are going to do and do it without thinking of anyone being there but you.

Next, focus on one spot in the room and never make eye contact with those judging you while performing. This is easier if on a stage with lights. Forget they are are there and BECOME your CHARACTER and FORGET ABOUT YOU AND ANYTHING ELSE. Nothing else matters.

Think of what your characters might have been doing offstage and try to bring that onstage or in an audition. When I'm up there I like to think that I'm an important person whom they have come to see for example a senator, president, actor, lecturer and that all that matters is what I have to say/do and that whether or not they're in the room or not when I say it doesn't matter.

Bottom line, you have to block them out of your mind while auditioning and be your character. You also have to have killer material that sets you apart. Writing is 80% of this with performance the other percentage points.

As far as being shy most actors are. All that fades away once you forget about you and your problems and become your character and don't break from it no matter what's going on as they watch you. So, go for it! Break a leg, even two if it works or someone else's leg if you have to ;)


What is it called when:

-the guy is completely naked.
-the girls only has her underwear on.
-the guy is on top of the girl.
-the guy's penis is on the girl's vagina.
-the guy really treats it like it were real sex. (he fingers, lick, etc.)

is this really sex? if, so is there a specific name? thanks in advance. (link)

This article from SEX, etc. explains it. http://www.sexetc.org/faq/sex/618

It's referred to as dry sex. There's nothing "adult" about the article it's an FAQ with a definition of said term.


so i have a pink ipod nano that is in really good condition, but it only holds 1000 songs. I have a lot more songs than that so i want to get a new ipod. so then i was trying to sell it for $100, which i thought it was a good deal because it is a $150 ipod. but i cant find find anyone who will buy it, because everyone i ask either already has one or wants one but doesn't have the money. Then this guy said that he wanted it, but he already has an ipod video that holds 75000 songs. but it doesnt make any sense to me because he is a guy, he wants a pink ipod that holds less songs and no videos? but he said that it would be easier to keep in his pocket and he doesnt have that many songs anyway. so he said that we should switch but i would have to give him $100 with it because his ipod is $250. Yesterday he came over so we could switch but his ipod was dead, so i couldnt tell if it was in good condition or anything, i was thinking why would he do that if it was in good condition? it looked good on the outside though. he said he would go home and charge it and take the songs off and come back today to switch. and when i said i would do the same he is like no no its okay, keep the songs on. so now i'm thinking he just wants my music that i payed for off of itunes?

im so confused i dont know what to do.
i'm sorry this was super long & confusing i just really don't know what to do!
thank you so much! :] (link)
Back off of this guy completely. Are you kidding me he wants an extra $100 on something you are trying to sell? You're getting rooked big time if you accept said deal. He could then resell it for even more.

I have to be blunt even if this sounds rude please use common sense here. Many people like these Ipods because they're smaller and cheaper to get than Ipod Classic and I Pod Touch. You're bound to find someone who wants it.

His Ipod is likely busted and that's why he never showed you it in working condition. He's looking to stiff you for money and probably give you a damaged Ipod that you're stuck with.

It may look great on the outside but it's the inside that counts. I C'mon he's going over to your place to trade you and he didn't think to charge it up?

Also, if you did trade him your IPOD wipe your songs clean from it and then nobody could use music you paid for. That's pretty easy to do on screen in Itunes.


I am a 15 year old female and I was horny so today I took the springy part off of my curing iron and I masterbated with it and now my vagina hurts did I do something wrong or is something wrong with me? (link)
Inserting objects into your vagina that aren't meant to be inserted into it can hurt or cause injury depending what you used. The part of your curling iron is one of said objects.

If using an object make sure it's something safe and clean and meant for that. You're not an adult and can't purchase novelty items but that's about the only safe thing just as an example that can be used by adults only.

Do not ever use anything with ridges, that can cut, scratch or can get lodged up there such as pen caps, erasers etc which is a common problem believe it or not with young people or those who experimented. You don't want to go to the doctor over this kind of thing believe me.

There's nothing wrong with you btw. Masturbation is normal, healthy and will not cause you any harm. It's pretty much a universal practice with teens your age. Just be careful about what you do with objects as you can cause harm to yourself as I've illustrated.


yeah i was wondering if it hurts to go to the gynocologist(dunno how to spell it) (link)


This comprehensive fact sheet from Scarleteen for teens about their first visit should put you at ease. http://www.scarleteen.com/article/pink/your_first_gynecologist_visit

It tells you EVERYTHING that will happen step by step. You have nothing to fear because these doctors are professionals and will make sure you feel as comfortable as they can.


Okay, so I really want to join a few talent agencies, but I've never had any experience with acting.

They say to email them and stuff, and some say you don't have to send a resume but what would I email them? I've never worked in tv or acted before, so I have no idea why they would want me. (link)

It seems I'm the go to guy on this subject ;) I've answered this question a lot lately. It's my pleasure (sincerely) to do it again. These tips will keep you and other kids SAFe. Lots of scams out there and people looking to exploit your dream.

What you need to do is get a background talent agent. They're also known as an extras agent. They will put you in crowd shot scenes in Hollywood movies and TV shows provided you have access to a large metropolitan city.

This is the best way to see if you want to work in the industry. Shoots can last 18 hours at worst sometimes. What you need to do is contact SAG (Screen Actors Guild of America) or ACTRA in Canada. They're the actor's unions in these countries. Ask them for their list of reputable agents who specialize in background work.

Then, call and meet with one. DO NOT under any circumstance sign with anyone who is NOT on their list of agents. If the person isn't on the list it means they could be a dirty, rotten scoundrel.

Only background talent agencies and teen/kids agents can charge an admin fee each year. Why? kids flake out as do extras often after one shoot. NO other agent is allowed to charge you anything.

RUN AWAY FAST from people who want to put your photo on the net for casting directors (they never cast this way EVER) or anyone pushy or trying to get you to take lessons, photos and etc. from them.

You aren't established in the theatre or in TV or film yet so you can't land a principal agent unless you decide to get an agent for kids/teen roles only. They exist and you'll need SAG and ACTRA's reputable lists again to contact one.


Alright so cat has stopped cutting (Yay) but now I'm using runner bands to keep myself in order. I haven't cut for about two weeks but now I have a new problem the marks made by the rubber bands...How long does it usually take them to dissapear and is there anyway I can hide them? I don't want people to come here and tell me how bad it is because without the bands I know what I would do. Right now I just need to know how to cover the welts that the bands make. Any help?
I'm not now nor am I planning on seeing a shrink...I don't think I need that. (link)

What you need versus what you think you don't need are two vastly different things. I'll be blunt here. You need to admit that you have a problem and seek help or be plagued by it needlessly.

There is NOTHING wrong in seeing a psychiatrist at all. A lot of famous people and high profile people that you respect see them regularly. There's no shame in it and they aren't out to judge you at all. They're there to help and in fact may be your best friend for turning your life around.

Obviously you HATE cutting and want to stop it completely. The only way you can do that is with medical help and proper medication. Your problem is a mental health issue whether you like that or not.

The rubber bands won't help much. If all it takes is taking an anti depressant and dealing with a shrink once every two months isn't that worth it? You need healing and not a stand in for cutting. You can't escape your illness because it will always be there unless helped.

Just so you know, a shrink cannot put you in a psych ward or hold you for observation unless they think you're going to harm yourself or somebody else. Likely you'll be assessed and receive regular counseling and a prescription.

You ought to do this for yourself as you can't screw around with your health or a mental health issue for long as it will seriously bite you and become harder to handle.

You can hide cuts or welts from cutting in a variety of ways including clothing. I won't go into details because while you can hide the physical signs of your problem you won't fool anyone or yourself for long as the illness will still be there until you get help and move on with your life fully free of it. After all isn't that what you truly want?


i have two questions. sorry.

questions #1
do guys think its attractive/sexy when girls queef?

question #2
my boyfriend's friends told me he can't cum. why is that? p.s. he is a really horny guy. (link)

It depends on the individual and their maturity. Some guys are mature enough to know it's natural and will laugh with you. Other guys could be disgusted or turned off.

It's all in their maturity level and whether they act like men or 13-year-old guys (no offense to any 13-year-old's who are in fact mature).

The second issue almost always has to do with two things. He's either got a psychological blockage or fear. This can be a fear of disease, hurting his partner, not knowing what to do or just being overwhelmed or too excited.

Also some guys find it harder to ejaculate in certain positions especially reverse missionary which is more pleasurable for the female than the guy. She should ask him if he's afriad of anything sexual and get him to open up.

The poster who mentioned drugs etc. also has valid ideas about why. But, it's almost always fear that causes this.


I've been into acting for about 2 years,
I know i need improvement, but i need some help finding agencies here. I've been on an open casting call for John Casablanca already, but since it was open there wasn't much hope in getting any parts.
Anyways my question is, does anyone know about any good agencies in Massachusetts?

And if you have any tips on interviews,and basically anything on acting, feel free to share! :} (link)

ADDITIONAL INFO: To become an extra call SAG (Screen Actors Guild of America) in the U.S. or ACTRA in Canada and ask for a list of REPUTABLE AGENTS in your area. Make an appointment with someone they recommend and that's how you get an agent for background a.k.a extra work.



ORIGINAL RESPONSE:
You need a background talent agency. They will put you in crowd shots in various films and Tv shows shot in Boston or a large city in your state. This will help you discover whether or not you truly want to be in this business.

It's not all glitz and glam but you will see well known people doing what they do and be part of the process. Unless you have considerable theatre credits and a well-known name you won't be able to get a principal agent to see let alone sign you yet.

You could join a kids/teen agency though as they specialize in getting people your age parts. They only represent your age group.

Do not take demands for lessons, courses, photography packages from an agency as that's a scam to rip you off. Another scam is if someone says they'll put your resume and picture on the net for a fee so casting directors see it. Again, total BS as no agent, director or casting director uses the net to cast anything.

Before finding an agent you need to contact ACTRA in Canada or SAG (Screen Actor's Guild of America) for a list of reputable background, kids/teen agencies in your area.

If an agent you heard of isn't on the list don't sign with them period. An agent must follow certain rules and ethics laid out by those two unions.

Finally, NEVER pay anyone a cent to represent you. There are two and only two exceptions to this. Background talent agents can charge you a small fee for yearly registration. They do this as a lot of people flake out on them once they see that you can be on set for 18 hours at a time.

The other exception is kids/teen agencies. Why? same as above parents and kids flake out once they see it's work. Bottom line become an extra a.k.a background performer as that's the easiest way to learn about the industry and acting.

I don't wish to toot my own horn but want to give an example of what you can get work in. I've been in a lot of well known productions in crowd scenes where they gave me close-ups. You might even wind up with a line if they like how you look. If that happens it's a cool $2,000 that you split with your agent.

I've worked in crowd scenes for Hairspray, Man of The Year Blues Brothers 2000, Long Kiss Goodnight, Desmond Files among others. There's potential to work on lot of cool projects if you go about it this way.


I love this boy but you see he acts different when he is around his friends. I told him that he does but he doesn't listin to me and blams the whole thing on me saying i am changing and that im not the same person he feel in love with. i don't know what to do and my friends just seem to not know either. i need help. Do you have any advise for me? (link)

Tell him that unless he listens to you and stops treating you differently with friends that you're gone. He'll get it. Also add this for effect.

"Yes, I have changed. I've changed my mind about you." He sounds full of himself and thinks he can walk all over you and treat you like shit. Put him in his place.

You have to. If your relationship fails at least you'll have the reputation as a woman with standards who takes no BS from anyone. Let him hear and feel your roar. It's the only way.


I got so upset at my english teacher for giving me a bad grade on my project that i worked so hard on, so i sent him an email about it. it didnt seem rude at first, but when i went back and read it after i had cooled off, i realized that it does sound a bit rude. what do i do now? i dont want to appologize because i still dislike my teacher (i'm really not sorry) but i do feel bad. i dont want him to hate me now. what do i do? (link)

He will likely think you were acting immature and in the heat of the moment before thinking. He has probably seen more than his share of students meltdown the moment they got a bad mark.

You can hate him all you want but do yourself a HUGE favor READ his comments over and over again that appear on the paper. Implement them and you will see your grade jump higher because you'll see what was wrong with your paper then.

Also be sure to re-write and re-work your papers before handing them in. Professionals do this and if you don't do it your grade will suffer. There's always more you can do to make your paper better.

What should you do now? Approach your teacher and apologize for your meltdown and e-mail. explain that the mark made you angry and you can't understand why you got it when you worked your head off.

He will likely find the time to sit down with you and go over what you could have done differently or better. I'll tell you something even reporters who are legends in their field have editors who dislike their stuff and push for better.

Maybe he thinks you have potential that you aren't living up to. The best thing to do is sit down with him, stop griping and listen. You may find he gives you a ton of information that turns you into a better student.

He won't hate you. Been there did all this myself. It's student's like you that are probably far more interesting to him than others. You really want to learn and improve or you wouldn't have become so angry. Don't blame him for anything. Blame yourself for not using what he said about your piece to get better marks later on.


ok well i was just figured for the first time and it hurt soo bad he did it about 3 times and they only lasted about 20 seconds because it hurt.
is that normal? ive never like masturbated or anything but i was thinking maybe i should so it doesnt hurt next weekend if he does it again. (link)

If it hurts like a son of a bitch then he's doing it wrong! Like most guys his age he has probably never seen or touched female genitals before before. it's your job to tell him what hurts and tell him to stop.

Unfortunately you can't tell him what feels good versus bad because you haven't ever touched that area of your body either. It may be a good idea to try learning so that you can convey to a partner what feels right sexually and know what his fingering is supposed to feel like versus this.


(I'm 17/f) I've had this huge crush for one of the guys I work with for about a solid year. We would always flirt, but I always thought he was just being his goofy self and didn't know how I really felt. Well about a month ago we finally started hanging out outside of work, and he confessed he'd known how I felt for a long time. We ended up hooking up the day before new years eve, and we've fooled around a lot since then. I'm really happy where we are.
My problem is he wants to keep our fling a complete secret and I'm kind of afraid to ask why. I'm almost positive he likes me too, because he calls me almost every night to talk for like two hours. When we're alone he kisses me softly and holds my hand, all that sweet stuff. But nothing in public or when either of us have friends around. I might be because he's afraid of the age difference (he's 22), but idk. The first night we had sex he told me he "couldn't make any promises" and he made sure I understood, which I said I did.
I'm afraid that if I ask him where he and I are going (IF we're going anywhere), that he'll freak out and stop wanting to fool around altogether. I love being friends with benefits with him, but I want to figure out if there's a chance of a future relationship. How can I ask him without being clingy, desperate, and forward??
Thanks for reading!

The age difference may have a lot to do with your situation. He's 22-years-old and you are 17-years-old. While not a huge gap until you are 18 you're a minor.

That's a huge problem for him as he's viewed an adult. You can bet this may be why he's hiding the relationship so he doesn't get in trouble before you are 18.

He may be afraid that if anyone found out you were fooling around or around or having sex that he could be in legal trouble. It is/will be against the law regardless.

There's a chance that you may be the "other" woman and that he could have a steady girlfriend or even be married at 22.

He may be afraid that if your relationship went to hell at some point that this tension could affect his job and yours as the workplace is small and relationships are frowned upon.

What do you need to do? Be forward! Ask him for the truth and where you stand with him. Tell him that you aren't willing to be secretive or hide the facts any longer.

There's something wrong here and when he wants to hold everything secret and not let people know he's even a friend let alone more it's wrong. I would run if I were you.


i really didn't know what to put this under because it has a lot to with a bit of everything. Just this month especially this week i have been horribly depressed and the things that are happening are just making it worse. I used to have a big depression problem about a year ago and i began to cut myself. Lately i have started to cut myself again and i cry a lot and i feel like crawling in a hole and dying. School isn't fun anymore and things that normally wouldn't bother me are. Home isn't very nice either my mom and my sister are having a big war and i'm the reason. my sister is blaming me for stuff and my mom knows it's not true. but that isn't what is worng the problem is i don't know what is wrong.Everything was fine a month ago when i started feeling like this so i din't have any stress or anything bad happening. I want to ask if it's possible that depression can just pop up out of nowhere even if everything was fine? I really want to know if it's just a once in a while thing or if i have a depresion disorder because it does happen a lot but not usually this long and i never feel this bad. what's going on? (link)

You need immediate help from a mental health professional. Cutting yourself is not in any way normal and your feelings of being severely depressed and then fine a few days or a month later aren't normal either.

It's a sign you could be more than just depressed. You might be bipolar as fluctuation in moods especially from being fine to being depressed and harming yourself is a big indicator that this may be going on.

Document in a diary how you have been feeling, scary thoughts, when you have been cutting and what caused you to. Take note of when your moods have jumped from one to the other.

If you start feeling elation and complete happiness one moment, high energy that isn't normal, rapid thinking, rapid talking, weird or delusional behavior etc get to a hospital emergency room as it's signs of bipolar and a crisis.

Does depression just op out of nowhere? Nope. It's almost always a genetic issue and there are subtle signs and if they aren't caught as is the same with bipolar or other mental health issues it starts screaming for your attention and making itself known. By then it can be too late to avert a crisis.

What I would like you to do is tell someone you trust be it a parent, relative, counselor, teacher in confident what is happening.

Give a ton of examples and be honest about your feelings going up and down and that you are back to cutting again. This will warrant a visit to the hospital emergency room where a psychiatrist will do an assessment and find out what illness you have.

The doctor will likely prescribe medication and follow up. However, if they think you may be in crisis they can keep you for 72 hours or longer if need be to keep you safe from your own self and others. They will make sure you are fine before deciding on releasing you.

And yes, this is a medical emergency that you need to have checked out IMMEDIATELY. I would tell your parents and head over to the hospital. Even if the doctor just talks with you and you head home it's got to be done and to them was reason to go to the hospital.

I'll level with you I've been in the mental health ward for bipolar for longer than 72 hours. What you are telling me now if not looked into at a hospital could lead to the possibility of a crisis and being there longer than you want.

One way or another this will be resolved by medical professionals. You need to be honest and deal with this like an adult. Your health is something you can't play with.


hey im 13 and a female, but im not your avarge 8th grader. i smoke weed and drink offten. i got into this stuff early becasue i have a lot of older friends and my brother is the same way but hes a senior in high school. im not sextualy active but i've done everything but. i feel like im starting to get out of control. my brother is like my best friend and he even told me that im getting really bad. i had a couple parties while my parents were away and when my brother went to school he heard a ton of stories about me hooking up wtih his friends. i feel really bad because the only thing i didnt want was for my brother to be ashamed of me. but at the same time i think he's being over protective because my friends siblings dont even care like mine does. my brother told me that the kids he hangs out with that started as early as i did have std and are probably not making out of high school. i dont know if i should change my ways but all i know is that this has gone to far. please help me! thank you. (link)

If you feel things are getting out of control listen to what the nagging voice in your head is saying. That voice is gradually going to become deafening because you're sliding down a slippery slope.

You have seen where doing drugs at an early age or at all for that mater gets you. These older people you reference have big time problems including the fact they now have no education. Nobody wants an STD either or the "slut" label either for being promiscuous.

You've done the responsible thing by writing us. Why? You're able to admit you have a problem where as other people in your situation won't or can't. It takes guts to do that and to actively search for and want help.

The first thing you need to do is cut all ties to the people you're getting in trouble with and getting marijuana from. Talk to your teachers about your courses and get a tutor to get you on track academically and stop hooking up with people at parties or even going to them.

As hard as it may sound you have to tell your parents that you are having a problem with drinking, marijuana and school and need their help to stay on the straight and narrow. 13 is very young for an underage drinker.

Will they be angry? Hell yes but that anger will magnify ten times more if you don't tell them and you wind up in an even bigger mess down the road you could prevent.

I don't know how old your brother is or his friends but it sounds to me that they're quite older and dragging you in a bad direction. You're 13 so I would stay with people 11-14 and avoid these jerks.

Also if you are 13 and have done everything sexually except intercourse that's a problem. You aren't mature enough or adult enough to handle the ramifications of some of this behavior. Slow down, stop before things escalate.

Your parents can get you professional help for your problems and have you back on track. Although this will raise hell you need to tell your parents where the drugs were coming from, which of your brother's friends have been dragging you down etc. and let them know he's got a problem too.

If his butt doesn't get kicked along with yours you can bet once you get clean and out of this situation that people he's around or even he himself can trigger your relapse.

It doesn't matter whether your friends siblings care about what's going on as much as your brother. He has problem himself with this stuff and if he can see you're headed to disaster that ought to tell you something.

While he may be overprotective or close to you he's done a piss poor job of stopping your destructive behavior. Turn this over to your parents, a teacher, counselor or trusted adult to get yourself some help.

You can start by removing yourself from the social circle and so-called friends who you seem to get in trouble with. If you don't chuck them aside you'll wind up in an endless cycle of the same problem.


I really want a movie poster for Across the Universe. I googled "movie posters" and it came up with a bunch of websites. I searched each of the websites, and all of them either didn't have Across the Universe, and the ones who did, the posters cost like 30 bucks or more! (I want a big poster, not a little one!) Where can I get an affordable movie poster, for a not-too-publicized movie like this? (link)

Yu will want the film industry standard 27 X 40 inch poster that the movie theaters have and you can frame. Unfortunately, only original posters the studio had printed and not reprints exist thus far. This will change when the film is on video in February. Keep checking in with movieposter.com as they are the best people for it. No, I'm not affiliated with them.
