I wasn’t much of a collector when I was a kid. I could never keep a toy in it’s package perched high on a shelf. In fact, usually the packaging would last about as long as it could take me to wrench my new She-Ra, Jem, or Barbie from their cardboard cage. But the one thing I did collect were trading cards, E.T. trading cards to be exact. But that was a long time ago, and those cards have long been misplaced (and I won’t even dwell on the fact I had the complete set), so you can imagine the overload of nostalgia I experienced when I saw The Improbably Movie Cards over at Automatic Lifestyle Dispenser. Because, what these fine folks have done is made movie collector cards in that classic 80’s style, but the catch is that these cards are for films that no person in their right mind would want to collect, and the results are pretty funny — if not a little bizarre.
So how bad it could it be? Well, if you thought a Silkwood card might be in ‘dubious’ taste, wait till you get a look at the Schindler’s List “Nazi’s on The Move” card. Dispenser also made collector cards for good old Alvy and Annie, Sara Goldfarb, and even Charlie Meadows. But no trading card pack would be complete without the stickers, and luckily they have thought of that too, and we get collectible stickers of Colonel “The Horror” Kurtz, and Anton “Friendo” Chigurh. Unfortunately, these cards only exist online, but I don’t think I would be the only one out there who would kill for their very own set of Annie Hall trading cards.
