Has anyone else received the 15'x18' banner... and then realized how small their walls or ceiling are?

We received the 3 Australia posters... Kidman, Kidman & Jackman, Jackman.

Then we received the 12' standee... basically the 3 noted posters side by side, with a wavy effect.

The other day a kid shows up to hang the biggest banner I've seen in my life. Same 3 images, but if I stretch my arm up and rise on my toes I can touch the bottom of the banner... as it hangs from the theatre's lobby ceiling.

Ok Fox we get it, its going to be epic... please calm down!

I've stopped ordering standees for my theatre because most are too tall for the hallways and I don't have a big enough lobby to be taking up floor space with standees. What I've started to is ordering bus shelters for everything I can and I post those in the hallways where I would put the standees.

I've never seen a banner as large as the one you're describing, but I ordered a 30 sheet for Bourne Ultimatum when I couldn't get a banner. It looked pretty impressive hanging from the ceiling of my theatre, but it was WAY too much work to put together and hang.

We have the Australia banner hanging down one of our hallways, it is the perfect size to fit on the wall from top to bottom. Looks good too.

I bet the Grinch banner we had several years ago was bigger. It only fit on this one wall in the building and even then someone cut holes in it to fit through some pipes. It was freaking gigantic. Took up almost all of a 25-30 foot tall wall.

All our cinemas are tall to.
