Sir Ridley Scott Exhibition

The Word, a national centre for the written word has just opened in South Shields over the weekend. A very impressive building with four levels, a library with many different sections for different ages. Interactive points, ICT amongst many other things. To go along with the opening they have decided to have an exhibition of most famous South Shields born film director Sir Ridley Scott. Obviously I was very quick to head across to check it out!

Star Wars – Darth Vader

Carrying on from the Chewie post . . . This answers your question on the other Star Wars bear I picked up in the two for £30 offer. Although it does work out quite a lot more than that adding the sounds and other accessories. But you will see soon why I had to get something else to go with this one! Again a chance to pick sounds, I opted for two in this one felt that I just had to have not only his heavy breathing but also his theme music. I mean come on it really wouldn’t have been the same without them would it?!?

Star Wars – Chewie

With my new-found Star Wars love I couldn’t help totally jumping on the bandwagon and then buying some merchandise. The stuff I opted for was from Build-A-Bear, you know where they stuff them right in front of you and you can pick everything about them placing sounds inside and plenty of different outfit choices available which also means the price does very quickly increase! I have seen a few times now that Build-A-Bear has had different bears relating to films, you can still pick up the three minions along with a dragon (How to Train Your Dragon) and now you can get Star Wars “bears” which are more expensive than the others at £27 each!

Star Wars – Stormtrooper 3D Glasses

It’s very rare now that I seem to come across the limited edition and special film related 3D glasses. I do still have my Harry Potter ones from when the final film came out, and I still wear them to this day. But last week when I went to see the new Star Wars film at a Vue Cinema something happened and they had these glasses. Even though I did not see the film in 3D I just had to buy them to add to my collection, ok when I saw collection I mean to the Harry Potter glasses as the possible start of a collection!

Marilyn Monroe dress sells for £2.8m

Over the weekend the very famous white dress worn by Marilyn Monroe was auctioned and was bought for a very cool £2.8m ($4.6m). Possibly one of the most well known dresses in film history! The image of Monroe getting the gust of wind from the subway and blowing her dress up has to be one of the most well known as well.

An unreal amount of money considering it was bought for just $200 dollars and for it to make so much money, just shows how much of a pull Monroe still is in the Hollywood world. I don’t imagine this is something that will ever happen with dresses or any clothes from recent films.
