Ok, im sure you can’t have failed to notice the Adidas Star Wars range of clothes and apparel over the last couple of months. They are promoting it very heavily with a range of mega-expensive looking ads featuring some of the biggest stars on the planet.
This would all be cool if it weren’t for a few crucial factors:
The trainers are all rather ugly (in our opinion obviously), and they are pretty damn expensive
Star Wars has lost alot of credibility after the prequels farce – although the older films in the series are still infinitely cooler, you can’t quite shake the feeling that its all been ruined – its like they’ve released this range 30 years too late!
The ads are pretty cool and all, but what exactly do David Beckham, Snoop and Daft Punk have to do with Star Wars? Confusing…….
Anyway, thats our Adidas rant over, what are your thoughts?
Well, we’ve been round the houses with our opinions on the iPad since Apple guru Steve Jobs announced it last Wednesday. One minute we think -
“Yes, i’d love an iPad, it’s so slinky and cool looking – plus it makes the internet, videos and spreadsheets look amazing – plus is not that expensive, im getting one………..”
Then the next minute we’re hit with a wave of skeptiscism along the lines of:
“Why do i need this thing, what does it actually do better than my laptop? I need to pay for books and apps and a phone contract! after shelling out for the thing in the first place! No way……..”
Why don’t we settle this once and for all with an exciting poll! Is the iPad cool? or do you agree with the president of Nintendo - is it a step in the wrong direction for Apple?
Legendary rockers AC/DC are providing the soundtrack for Iron Man 2, the sequel to one of the best superhero movies of the last few years. To celebrate this wonderful union a very cool video has been produced for the 1980 classic ‘Shoot to Thrill’. The vid is a mash-up of footage from the Iron Man 2 trailer and AC/DC live on tour in Buenos Aires last year. Having been to the Hampen Park, Glasgow gig on this tour we can attest to the amazing time everyone seems to be having, it was amazing!. The video is well worth a watch we reckon………
