For expensive movie art take it to a professional to be restored. Posters can be restored the same way rare comic books are professionally restored. 123movie

Watching movie trailers on the internet has become a popular past time for many. I know my husband's one of them. He loves to watch his movie trailers. 123movie

As with all collectibles, condition is a great factor when placing a value on posters. 123 movies

In which case, go for it. Movies are definitely good for us movie buffs. But again, be careful in what you buy. Or at least save the receipt and don't be offended when that person needs to return your gift.

I must admit I'm a cracker for movies. So, all those who consider themselves movie crazy raise your hands. Yup, that's almost everybody. Why are we movie crazy? Why do we live in a movie crazed society? Hey, what are movies anyway? yesmovies

If you want a better than bird's eye view of making of a movie and to encounter a movie star or two sign-up to be an extra. You'll get paid, fed, be on set and maybe bump elbows with your favourite movie star. soap2dayhd.co

Some of you may already have it all taken care of by now. Others may be last-minute shoppers like myself and think that even now is just the start of the shopping season. solarmovie

Chances are your movie buff already has one of these in their collection. However, for those that don't a Blu-ray player is a great gift for the movie buff in your life. solarmovies
