TR2N Trailer Previewed at the San Diego ComiCon  

0 comments

My husband Arnold is a big huge Tron fan and is upset with the fact that critics never really cared much for the sci-fi movie -- heck, even the Simpsons made fun of it:

# [3F04] Treehouse Of Horror VI - Homer3
Homer tries to explain what the third dimension looks like.
Homer: Uh... it's like... did anyone see the movie 'Tron'?
Hibbert: No.
Lisa: No.
Marge: No.
Wiggum: No.
Bart: No.
Patty: No.
Wiggum: No.
Ned: No.
Selma: No.
Frink: No.
Lovejoy: No.
Wiggum: Yes. I mean... um, I mean, no. No, heh.

(That was a funny episode yes, but you get the point.)

So it's about time that a sequel to the under-appreciated but very influential classic is produced. Titled TR2N, Disney unveiled an exciting clip at the recent SDCC and we have a kind soul to thank for uploading it to Youtube for the benefit of those who couldn't go.

UPDATE: Sorry folks, the video has been taken down. Oh well. I guess we'll all have to wait a year or so to see it.

We actually have a couple of TRON inspired designs in our shop:

Heroes "What Hero Are You?" Tee vs. Poptastic's "What's Your Super Power?" Tee  

2 comments

Now here's something you don't see everyday!

Last year my husband, a huge sci-fi and comic book fan (who's actually a comic book writer/artist himself) came up with the idea of a t-shirt with icons/symbols to represent common "super powers" exhibited by various heroes we've all seen in cartoons, comic books, movies, and tv shows.

So we launched our original "What's Your Super Power?" t-shirt in February 2007:


(See this design in more t-shirt styles and colors HERE).

Earlier today, in anticipation of Heroes season 3, I was looking at official Heroes t-shirts and chanced upon this:



Now does that look almost exactly like our design or what? The symbols have been re-imagined but the illustration style and typeface that was used are very similar to ours. I found these shirts here, here, and here. UPDATE: Edited to erase links.

Oh well...*shrugs*

I'll just leave it up to you now, dear customer. If you want an official but commercial Heroes tee, then go ahead and click the links above*. If you want to support indie designers like ourselves, you may purchase the original but non-Heroes-centric "What's Your Super Power?" t-shirt from our shop ... and thus have our undying gratitude. :)

*But if you really must have an official Heroes tee, I'd rather you check out the following instead (these are pretty cool):

Heroes Primatech Paper T-Shirt Sheer

Alex vs. Billy Boy  

0 comments

If you're a fan of Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation of Anthony Burgess' "A Clockwork Orange", the following ultraviolent gang-fight scene probably scared the living daylights out of you (as it did me). Heck, just reading the novel scared me to bits! It was that chilling *shudders*.


(via Youtube)

In light of this, we present to you Poptastic's Alex vs. Billy Boy design on t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, and other merchandise.




Whether you're with Team Alex or Team Billy Boy, wearing this tee will surely capture the attention of other Clockwork Orange fans. (Just be sure to point them to us if they ask where you got your sladky platties! ;) )

New tv/movie/80s designs  

0 comments



T-shirts! Hoodies! Tank tops!
"No soup for you!" - as goes the Soup Nazi in a memorable Seinfeld episode.
"Love is love is nothing without you" - on an old-school computer screen much like in the 80s movie "Electric Dreams". The quote is from the movie's theme, sung by Boy George and the Culture Club.
"A loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter" - just so you don't forget, my dear Sesame Street kids.
"War is Stupid" - Boy George sang this in the 80s but the message still rings true today.
"How about a nice game of Global Thermonuclear War?" - as inspired by the 1983 movie "War Games" starring a very young Matthew Broderick.
"Greetings Professor Falken. Shall we play a game?" - Joshua speaks to his father through the power of emerging computer technology in the 80s. Another "War Games" inspired design.
