Waca Waca Waca! Another retro movie weekend is before us!
Like one of the most dedicated retro gamers in the land, we find ourselves faced with some of the coolest 8-bit adventure goodness. Snacks at the ready, we'll limber up our fingers before button bashing our way to the 'big boss'. Fighting with everything we've got, we'll lean side to side before finally throwing the controller in the air (cable keeping it firmly away from the ceiling) as we throw the winning move and they admit defeat.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Wha wha wha whaaaat! Another retro movie weekend so soon? Well okay!
Like one of the most experienced and battle-hardened secret agents, we find ourselves getting geared up for another undercover mission in a far and strange land. As we pack only the very essential essentials, we'll begin to wonder who we will become and which new world we will be infiltrating to find out the biggest kept secrets. Perhaps we'll be a doctor? A potential investor or perhaps a waiter? Whoever we'll soon become, we will be leaving our current life and self behind in search of the facts, if only for a while.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Pitch a tent and light a fire! Another retro movie weekend had arrived!
Finding juuuuust the right spot to set up base camp, we find ourselves thrown into the wilderness once again as we begin another weekend of outdoor adventure. Unfolding plastic sheets, thumping in (and inevitably bending) tent pegs, sourcing a water supply and of course....blowing up the air bed, we're all set for another adventure in the great British countryside. Will it rain? Will be blow away? Or perhaps will we just attract more bugs than a picnic in a busy swamp? Only time will tell.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Just In! Independence Day Tees Which Will Have You Saying...."I have got to get me one of these!".
"Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind."
It was chilling, it was thrilling and boy was it awesome! Launching its attack on our cinemas back in 1996, Independence Day has been a 90s classic ever since and with the upcoming sequel titled 'Independence Day: Resurgence' hitting our big screens in just a few week's time, we're about to get a whole new chapter to the story!
Weirdly, our main memories of watching this Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum classic was it always being the film of choice at school. Whether it was perhaps the last day of term, a rainy lunch break, or perhaps the day after exams, some of our more....easy going teachers would always let us count down the hours in style with a classic VHS. It's was heaven! Getting to see Will Smith and Bill Pullman tangle with an alien invasion with your friends before he takes a moment to smoke a cigar and say...."now that's what I call a close encounter", seriously....movie GOLD!
Always looking for a touch of the good old times in our everyday lives, we're tracked down and captured some of our very own Independence Day TShirts which are now on the site and ready to be yours!
With three designs to pick from, take a peep at the latest Movie TShirt invasion to take over TruffleTowers....
