NIKE...AGAIN WITH THE HALLOWE'EN??????

Photobucket


So its that time of the year again....October and hallowe'en are just around the corner...so Of course, beacuse Nike doesnt make cnady or costumes to go out the door on the gouly night, they've decided to capitalize on the festivities by creating a new "Hallowe'en Edition" sneaker for the past few years.

Well first of all, there are WAYYYYYYY to many dunks out there....WAY TO MANY! When nike brought the dunks back in 98/99 I flipped and copped as many pairs as I could. Lows and highs. But since the BIG bring back of the shoe in 02'(2005 is when they REALLY started getting popular) I have seen way too many of them and cant stop wondering why the trend is still on the shelves of every major footwear shop....

Dont get me wrong, its a nice shoe and very easy to freak (low and hi) and there are still a couple of dunks that I would wear out of my closet, But we dont need another fucking hallowe'en shoe...last years candy corn flavored COurt Forces were pushing it but its gone to far....EXPECT a valintines day drop, xmas drop and St pattys day drops all of simalar nature....HERES A SMALL LIST OF WHAT I mean!!!

SOME LIKE IT HOT (dvd release) 1959

Photobucket


Directed by Billy Wilder. With Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon.

I had no idea what I was in for when I picked up this movie from the local Block Buster. The only sense I had about it was that Marilyn Monroe starred in it and that it was an old classic. For reasons beside that I had no clue. When I popped in the movie and got into the first scene I was already in love with the film, the setting of my hometown of Chicago lured me a little bit and the cops and robbers in the traditional sense of the 1920’s played on my heart as well. On top of the “eh copper” and “I aint neva heard of um” style dialogue the plot was hilarious. 2 musicians desperate for money and fame witness a multi mob murder and end up running away, dressed as two women for a gig in Florida. Along the way One falls for the beautiful Monroe, and the chase from the MOB to wipe out the witnesses never stops. With witty comedy and over the top sarcasm, “Some Like It Hot,” had me rolling!
The best thing about the movie was the way that the director and writers captured the 1920’s attitude and dialect of the south side Chicago Mobsters, along with the multiple scenes of outlandish cross-dressing references and subtleties
There wasn’t too much about this movie that I could complain about, the fact that it was Black and white and filmed in the late 50’s might turn some off from the movie, or that since, all the jokes and plays on words have been used over and over again. But if you put yourself in the seat of those who first saw this film in its time, you can’t beat it!
Great acting, hilarious script, over all a timeless piece of movie history!

PARANOID PARK (DVD RELEASE)

Photobucket


Paranoid Park is a recent Gus Van Saint FIlm that follows a nervous and nauxious young teen around a murder mystery. Set in Portland Oregon with a strong focus on the real Burnside skate park and its culture.
THe first thing that I have to say about this movie is WOW! Inredible film and editing work! Especially in the audio dept. The Soundtrack is all original and underground Portland area music and the overdubbed, almost constant, noise that is somehow musically transformed into ballots during these tweaked out slow motion cuts is CRAZY! I could care less about the acting which was sub par and the story which was ok, but the contrast and angles that Van Saint used were Brilliant. I learned alot from watching this movie and others might be upset with the high praise that i'm giving it, but truely the amount of thought that went into this not so complex movie was great! If your from Portland Check PARANOID PARK, and if your not, I would only reccomend this film to people with an eye for art and are not too worried about blockbuster type events!!
