Star Wars T-Shirts


I was watching a vlog by Alex Carpenter today on YouTube. In the middle of the vlog, Alex saw his buddy Jason Munday. Jason was wearing a Star Wars T-Shirt. When asked how much of his wardrobe consisted of Star Wars, he replied about 10% and there was a suggestion that he up that to about 50%. With all the available shirts available, I think it is possible.

There are some great sayings in the franchise, like the one above that says "Stay Golden" or the one below that says "I'm with the Band". There are dozens of awesome t-shirts on amazon. I wonder how many of them have been approved by Lucas. I hope that he doesn't mind that people are using his franchise. These shirts are awesome. They need to be in existence.

Amazing Spiderman T-Shirt

There is a new Movie Coming Up Called "The Amazing Spiderman". It is a retelling of how an unlikely boy gained a series of traits that were very like a spider and how he learned to use them to help people in his fair city of New York.

Spiderman is one of those characters that most of the readers or viewers can relate to. Most of us are nerds or geeks or just regular social outcasts, that is who Peter Parker is. He was not someone who is popular. He was not someone who people went out of their way to get to know.

The movie looks like it is going to be fun. They wrote in a bunch of sarky banter between our arachnid hero and the bad guys with knives. The story looks like it will be dark and gritty. I am hoping it will be similar to batman. It needs to have some realism, some character that will make us really care for Parker and his relations.

As for this T-Shirt, it is kind of creepy and inspiring all at the same time. The spider has a realness to it. The body looks like it could bite you at any time. The legs are almost too long.

I like the artistic feel in this shirt. It looks like something you might find down a dark alleyway or on the side of a boxcar in a train yard. It is fun and raw and almost looks like it wasn't designed at all. You know there were a dozen people in a room looking at this design and arguing where every speck of splatter paint was supposed to go. If you like Spiderman, make sure you pick one of these shirts up, especially if you are going to see the new movie.

The Flash Logo on a T-Shirt

This shirt has become popular because of "The Big Bang Theory". If you watch the show, you will find some kind of Flash gear in every episode. In fact it could be a fun game for you and your friends to play as you marathon the show.

I think the Flash is a great way to keep you focused. We want to be able to do things quickly and with precision. We want to be able to get things done in a fashion that will impress others around us. Sometimes all we need is a symbol of that desire. If we can feel like we are fast and efficient by wearing the symbol of speed, them a t-shirt like this one is a great investment. Mostly the shirt is just Awesome.

I really like these simple shirts. They just contain a simple logo, two or three colors that mean something to just about anyone who sees it. More people see these simple designs more than they would a picture of the flash himself. It has to do with the bright colors and the minimalist feel to the shirt.

I doubt most people would say much about the shirt, but most of them will be brought to a place in their own history where they had an experience with the flash. Some of them will remember reading the comic book. Others will remember cartoon on Television. Yet others will think about that sitcom that has become so popular.
