I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there, I’ll tell you how while looking through Fresh Prince of Bel-Air gifs I came across these colourful shoes which have aptly been named after the show. Never owned a pair of Jordans before, but if I was ever going to purchases some, these would be my top choice:
Straight ballin!
Hilarious. There’s a conflict of interest going on here as the Hoff does The Fresh Prince:
Wow, this guy had some acting chops.
Tickets are $65 and tend to sell fast. Don’t forget your pillows and covert midnight snacks, stress balls, care bears, valium, etc, etc:
Think you could bear sitting through 24 hours worth of random, unheard of, cult classic and sometimes premier films? I would say you can trust the organisers because they know great films and where to find them, but at this event it’s best to leave all your expectations at the door. I’ve been to more than a few of these marathons and expaned my personal DVD collection based on what I saw, and other times councilling was needed to suspress the trauma my hippocampus sustained followed by a priest sprinkling holy water on my eyeballs. But the risk is the whole fun of this event, you have to take the sour with the sweet, if you can stay awake that is.
‘Every film plays unannounced – you have no idea what lies ahead for the rest of the night. In the year Two Thousand, the Marathon was in Auckland at the Chinatown Cinema – it was a only 7 or so hours long. Some of the films that played that first night we think included The Story of Ricky, Voodoo Black Exorcist, The Time Travellers and The Braniac. We think. It all gets kinda hazy. Ever since then the Marathon has creeped up in duration until it re-launched as a 24 hour monster in 2004.
We’ve had some pretty cool New Zealand premieres over the years as well including SAW, TEAM AMERICA, NAPOLEON DYNAMITE, DEVILS REJECTS, THE DESCENT, CRANK, KISS KISS BANG BANG, THE RUINS and many more.

The audiences for the marathons have been excellent and respectful of their paying brethren around them. So lets keep it up. We want a living room feel to the proceedings, just not the living room of a drunk unfunny loser.
We cover many film genres throughout the night. Be warned, there will always be an element of sleaze in the marathon. it just doesn’t seem right without seeing some nudity and sex late at night. So there will always be people screaming, people being killed and usually a monster makes an unwelcome appearance or two.
There is usually one mainstream film that was so off kilter at its time of release it is now some executives bad memory.
Like drinking absinthe. Attending a movie marathon is something everyone should do once in their life.
We’ll save you a seat.

David Bowie has still got it. The Stars (Are Out Tonight) is the second single from The Next Day, David Bowie’s twenty-fourth studio album!
I designed them myself. Well, technically all I really did was change the colour scheme on the shoe’s various features. I like the idea in any case and can see consumer customizations becoming a major deal for designer labels in the near future. I’d also like the option to set the price too, but somehow I don’t think Nike is going to take that into consideration. Fancy buying a new pair of shoes but can’t decide on a look? Try create your own pair after the image links below:
Feel free to buy a pair 😛 I call them Fin Darks.
Here is a funny musical short film made by Nike. It’s a clever commercial, although I can’t help but feel that the underlying relationship between the two runners will far out live the Nike brand name and whatever it was they were promoting at the time (most likely it was a shoe, Fin). Yep, I’d run for love too.
French psyche-punk rock band La Femme made a wicked cool music video/short film to accompany Hypsoline’s hypnotic sound. I’m loving it, and the Parisian six piece’s sense of visual aesthetic really makes the video’s spooky ambiance pop with colour and style:
I want more, La Femme!
