10 Things You [Probably] Didn't Know About…Edward Scissorhands
We're back with another little hop, skip and jump into the inner workings and behind these scenes action of another classic film!
This time, we've been looking into some amazing facts from none other than 1990, Johnny Depp classic Edward Scissorhands!
Possibly one of Depp's best performances, this cult icon really showed us his amazing skill to portray so many emotions using as fewer words as a movie dares. Simply amazing stuff! Take a peep at some of our 10 Things You Didn't Know About Edward Scissorhands!
1) According to the director Tim Burton, Edward's suit was made of (among other things) latex, leather, the old sofa in his first apartment and tape.
2) Johnny Depp only says a total of 169 words through the whole film. Easy script or what!

Hey You Guys! Exclusive New Goonies T-Shirts Now In...
If like us you were born in one of the best decades ever (not that we're biased of course), you fell instantly in love with Mikey, Chunk, Mouth and Data when they hit the scene and took us on one of the best adventures ever way back in 1985.
Since the very first car chase scene and introductions to these iconic characters, we were hooked. We all had our favourites and all wanted to go for a quick explore in the loft to see what treasure we could find to start our very own adventures. Who knows what's up there other then a box of Christmas decorations and and old hoover right?!
As many of you may have spotted, we love the Goonies! So much we even named ourselves after it over ten years ago and this cheeky title is a constant reminder of our roots and what inspired some of bestselling and all-time favourite t shirt designs to date!
Sticking close to our hearts and of course helping to spread the love for one of the greatest films of the 80s, we've been busy working away on some amazing new and exclusive Goonies T-Shirts and vests! Take a peep at some of our latest handy work....

Exclusive New 'I Survived Jurassic Park' T-Shirts!
Just when you thought our exclusive range of Jurassic Park T-Shirts couldn't fossil-bly get any better, we've only gone and done it!
Inspired by one of the most iconic theme parks ever, Jurassic Park was home to some of the world's most dangerous and deadly creatures including a whole host of genetically re-created Dinosaurs from prehistoric times, all of which were the brainchild of an elderly billionaire philanthropist. Pretty standard stuff right?
As we're sure all you retro movie lovers will know, during one of the parks tours, a huge storm hits fictional Isla Nublar, an islet located off Costa Rica. To make matter worse, their geeky computer programmer, Dennis Nedry who has been bribed to steal dinosaur embryos disables all security systems in the park to allow him to gain access and steal what he needs. Things quickly turn from bad to worse as all the ancient beasts begin to break free and run amok with only freedom and hunting on their minds!

One of the biggest films of the 90s, this Steven Spielberg classic will certainly always have a home in our personal movie collections and now even more love from our exclusive range of movie T-Shirts!
Our Exclusive New Ferris Tees Are UnBuellerevable!
On the 20th of February 1987, (but quite a while after the yanks got their hands on it), we were first introduced to one of the most iconic characters of the decade. Someone we all wanted to be, someone who came along and did what they wanted and got away with is...if only just!
He lives the teenagers dream, getting to skive off school, drive a fast and very expensive car, and well...generally lark around with his best mates in the great city of Chicago. Who wouldn't want that right?
We are of course talking about... Ferris Bueller!
.
From the very first glimpse of the tailor we say for this film, we were in love and we sure weren't alone! Ferris later became one of the top-grossing films of the year and a true 80s classic for ever after. Not bad for a film that was written in less than a week!
With such a following and of course looking to feed our Bueller bellies with even more retro goodies, we've been hard at work creating some amazing and super exclusive new Ferris Bueller T-Shirts, this time inspired by that classic quote we all know and love.
