Why we are Expecting Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 To Rock!

What should we do next: Something good, something bad? Bit of both?

Groot, put your seatbelt on, Guardians 2 is about to land in the cinema!

It has been 3 year (2014) since Marvel delivered Guardians on the Galaxy to us...and we have been waiting for the sequel ever since.

The original was a runaway success and showed that you don't need the firepower of Iron Man or the strength of Hulk to deliver a comic masterpiece.

After 3 sleepless years of waiting Marvel will deliver the sequel to the UK on April 28, 2017 (which happens to be a full week before the US).

WHO IS BACK FOR ROUND 2?

When you need a little bit more Bond

The name's not Bond, James Bond may be one of the most famous introductions ever, but this time it is Scott talking to you, and I have to say that I am a bit of a Bond fan.

Not only have I read the novels and seen all the movies, but I have also bought the T-Shirt...........more specifically I bought one from our cheeky new range of James Bond TShirts.

To give you a bit of a history lesson (and you thought school was over?), the very first outing for 007 was in the 1953 novel "Casino Royale" by the legend Ian Fleming, this was followed in quick succession with a book a year until 1966.

Amongst these stories are some iconic names of villains and assistants we all know and love including the likes of.... Le Chiffre, Rosa Klebb, Francisco Scaramanga, Nick Nack, Max Zorin, Hugo Drax, Ernst Blofeld, Odd Job, Jaws and Pussy Galore (although she did switch sides).

Our friends at the always cool Chunk Clothing have taken some of these villains and showcased them into an awesome new range of alternative T-Shirts. Take a look!
