I have scoured Google trying to find a reputable company for quality movie standees and cutouts. I am looking for a life size cutout of Will Ferrell from ELF in the outfit and pose he is in on the cover of the DVD and on the poster. I thought this would be a relatively easy thing to find but I was mistaken. Anyone know where I can get one? I already searched Amazon and ebay with no luck.

Hey Josh:

You might try contacting the company that distributed the film. It's been my experience that they make arrangements with whoever provides the cutouts for them. Perhaps they would give you the name of their supplier.

These are usually referred to as "cutouts" outside of the theater business.

Locally, Louisville, party supply stores have these like a small army! Louis

Wouldn't someplace like Kinkos be able to do this?

Kinkos probably could but then your looking at possible legal ramifications.
