[ TC ] Film Review: Dead Snow

By theodore | August 27, 2010

Looking for a good movie this weekend to curl up on the couch with a bowl of popcorn?
Do you like movies about Zombies? How about Nazis? How about BOTH?!

Well, Theodore’s got you covered.

In this 2009 film release from Norway, Død Snø (Dead Snow), starts as your run of the mill horror/scare flick. Young adults going out to some remote location for a weekend of partying…and weird things start happening. It eventually devolves into a over-the-top, obviously fake gore, B-Style movie.

The great thing about this one is, it includes:
a) Zombie Nazis

b) Snowy, Remote locations (think Hoth from Empire Strikes Back)

c) Jenny Skavlan – Norwegian model eye-candy

Overall, if you’re a fan of B-movie/zombie flicks: Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead, Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, even Texas Chainsaw (i know, not zombies), you’ll enjoy this one.

I give it: 3 1/2 out of 5 Yodas

Big Sky Country

By robert | August 16, 2010

A few Hipstamatic images (iPhone version) from the wilds of Montana. What a place…“Big Sky” is the definitely the best way to describe the scenery, and now I fully appreciate their tourism tagline “There’s Nothing Here.” We were southwest of Bozeman in the Madison River Valley and the closest store/establishment was a good 45 minutes away….a long drive for milk, bread and beer.

While the heights of Colorado, Wyoming and Idaho are impressive, Montana’s sense of space is unmatched. The peaks and valleys in Colorado almost seem claustrophobic by comparison, as Montana’s are laid out in wide-open, repeating patterns. Makes you feel real small in a real good way. The weather is equally impressive with a year’s worth of seasons packed into each day. You slide through a cool morning, warming sun, passing rain, marble-sized hail, warm sun again, a great sunset and then another cold shot in the evening. Throw in a long list of outdoor activities….hiking, fly fishing, biking, climbing, canoeing/kayaking and running from bears….and you’ve got a place where you can leave the rat race behind and get in touch with your wild side.

Anthony!

By nicola | August 13, 2010

Going to be in Greenville this weekend? Stop by the Peace Center to catch the Dreamgirls performance on Saturday night. The show is sponsored by High Cotton Greenville as part of their partnership with the Peace Center.

To help support the event, we developed a poster / insert combo centered around their Executive Chef, Anthony Gray, that plays off of the vintage poster of Annie the musical. We think the resemblance is striking!

Take a look… you’ll catch them around the Peace Center tomorrow night.

[ TC ] Shaken, not Stirred – The Art of Mixology

By theodore | August 13, 2010

A real quick precursor to the weekend…

Have you been itching to meet Theodore in person? Relax and have a drink with him?
Well, then come on up to the Upper Deck, his favorite local dive bar. Cuz THIS SATURDAY, AUGUST 14th, THEODORE WILL BE GUEST BARTENDING HAPPY HOUR 4-8pm.

Yes, that’s right. I’ll be up there, mixing it up with my buddy, Dwayne who tends there regularly. What’s that you say? You say, “I never knew Theodore was a mixologist.” Well, the truth is, I’m not. Which makes it all the more interesting. I’ll make some fancy drinks, take some shots, and provide entertainment thru some friendly bar banter.

If you’ve never been to the Upper Deck, you’re in for a treat. At 353 King Street, above Gilroy’s Pizza, it boasts the best drink prices in town (getting even further DIRT cheap during Happy Hours). Divey and seedy, Upper Deck will likely leave you with a warm, and fuzzy feeling inside. Actually, I can guarantee that.

Maybe you’ll see ALL your friends from Blue Ion… sipping on some fresh Red Sangria and Mojitos…. two specialities on hand for this special day.

Just because it's the day after Friday the 13th, there's no reason to be afraid.

Vintage Social Media Ads

By josh | August 12, 2010

Wondering what an ad for YouTube would have looked liked in the 1960′s? Well Moma Propaganda, a Brazilian Ad Agency has created a series of social media giving it a 60′s look. They look like something Don Draper would have created…

The YouTube one is my favorite. Check out the old Super 8 camera…

Facebook:

The Skype one looks like a scene out of the Jetsons:

and lastly, Twitter. Awesome vintage version of the iPhone and the old school Twitter logo is great!
