Sean Davey Surf Photo Tees

bwareville — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 09:20:10 +0000

Our good homie, photographer Sean Davey has got a new line of tees out with his classic photos on them. If you don’t know Davey, he is an OG surf photographer that has shot for every major mag in the game. Check his work out HERE.

This is what he had to say about his shirts:
Folks, my mate Welshy over in the UK has been pumping out Davey Visions Surf Tee’s for a good year already. He’s been sending me some over to promote the brand here in Hawaii and I certainly have been wearing them a fair bit. it’s amazing how many peeps have actually been stopping me to ask where they can get their hands on one.

The great thing too is that the quality is A-1 but you won’t be paying any ridiculous amounts for the Tee’s like if they came to you via a surf company. My Tees are priced so that pretty much anyone can get their hands on one. Check ‘em out here.

Well, I’m pleased to be able to say that they are actually available to anyone right now via my print and Canvas site at SURFPHOTOSART.COM

Seale Reviews: TRON 3D IMAX

bwareville — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 04:55:18 +0000

Ok, so Seale and I (jimbrowskee) went to go see TRON last week and had a…ummm interesting time. We got quite kushy before hitting the theatre, so all was well. Dude likes to be extra early for everything, so there was ample time for me to lurk around the theatre w/my 3D glasses on taking flix with my phone and looking like a weirdo, i’m sure. I even sat down in the wrong theatre, for like 5 mins wondering where Seale was. Anyway, Seale wrote a review and here it is.

Tron 3D IMAX Review: By Seale / Images By jim-BROWSKEE
Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), plays the ducati-loving 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges). Sam is still troubled by the disappearance of his father twenty-some years ago. Sam learns of a mysterious page from his father’s old arcade and is pulled into the same world his father has been trapped in for the last two decades. Along with Kevin’s loyal creation (Olivia Wilde), they embark on a journey across a stunning cyber universe to try and escape the clutches of Kevin’s rogue creation, Clu.

The first thing you’ll notice is how freaking amazing the IMAX experience truly is. The sound and picture quality are monumental. The bass is thunderous as spaceships and cyber-bikes pass. Its worth the extra coin you have the shovel out of your wallet, trust me.

Director Joseph Kosinski, making his feature debut, took some notes from watching the Wizard of Oz. The Wizard Of Oz switches from black-and-white to color when Dorothy is tossed into Oz, likewise Tron doesn’t go 3D until Sam gets laser-blasted into the computer driven world. The following thirty minutes are the peak of the film. Sam voyages through the neon bowels of Tron-world and finds himself forced to play killer ultimate frisbee, and participate in a death race with techno infused street bikes. Father and son soon reunite and must make a desperate attempt to flee to the outside world. But Clu is on hot pursuit. Clu is Flynn’s young clone a CPU chip off the old block who’s turned to the dark side and enslaved his land and has plans on doing the same to the real world. I can see this being the premise for the sequel. I won’t give anyway the ending for those who haven’t seen the film. There’s a couple of lengthy parts I could’ve done without, as well as some uncomfortable comic relief that seemed to be thrown in as filler. The true star is the visual effects. Like Avatar, you really feel like you’re engulfed in the world of Tron until you remove the 3D glasses.

Tron: Legacy could be the next big thing. Disney is already working on the anticipated sequel. The IMAX experience is a marvel to the senses. Daft Punk definitely rocks the score with pulsating beats that go along with the story. It might not be perfect, I could have done without the extended and drawn out cyber-train ride, but what is? Tron: Legacy – The IMAX 3D Experience is an event worth attending.

Seale Rating: B-

Final thought, Daft Punk is the shit. I’m really debating on buying the soundtrack. I hope Disney has them score the sequel. F it, every Disney movie should be scored by Daft Punk. Can you imagine how epic Toy Story 3 would be if all those toys were jamming to Daft Punk the entire time? Just a thought.

Last week I (jim-BROWSKEE) had the opportunity to DJ Body Glove’s movie premiere party for their new surf film Drop Zone at Banzai Sushi Bar up here on the North Shore. I loaded up on killer sushi, sipped some Rose’ with the Frenchies and played tunes for a mix of industry peeps, locals and fans. Even the monsoon that just dumped on Oahu that night couldn’t keep us from raging. Here’s some flix.

Zola World

bwareville — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 17:02:46 +0000

Our good homie, sick photographer, and master of getting weird, Zola Brusso sent us some flix from his recent island hopping excursion to Indonesia. These are from Bali(Balangan), Lombok(DP,Mauwi), and Telos Islands.

Not well known by most, the Telos are where the ballers go to score epic surf and escape the riff raff in the Mentawais. Zola camped out at Telos Island Lodge, an exclusive fly-in-fly-out surf camp located in the Batu islands, a group of islands approximately 180 nautical miles from the city of Padang on the island of Sumatra. The Batu group sits between Siberut, the northern most island of the Mentawai group and the island of Nias. This area of Northern Sumatra is considered one of Indonesia’s last surfing frontiers. Damn Z, it must be nice…

Seale Reviews: Green Lantern Trailer

bwareville — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 22:35:04 +0000

The homie Seale watches too many movies…that’s all he talks about. But the dude sure knows his stuff when it comes to cinema. We always respect his opinions when we’re looking for a good flick to watch.

Here he is with a review of the Green Lantern Trailer:

It’s been teased and buzzed about in the passed six months, but Warner Bros has finally put the Green Lantern trailer on the web for all you superhero freaks out there.

The two and a half-minute trailer quickly runs down the hero’s origin story, Ryan Reynolds plays Hal Jordan, a hot shot test pilot with a carefree attitude with a few clouded fears. But when he’s chosen by a mysterious alien ring to become part of an galactic police task force, he’ll have to face his inner demons and battle some true evil to save the Earth and the balance of power in the universe.

Mark Cambell directs this, likely to be stamped a trilogy tale, with Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Mark Strong and Tim Robbins heading up as the main casts. Warner Bros is no doubt betting this will end up as an Iron Man-type franchise to rival Marvel’s passed efforts. Its rumored that the studio is already working on at least one script for the sequel.

So how does it measure up? It’s hard to tell from just the trailer, but Reynolds definitely has his charisma working in full force and he comes across as an even cockier Tony Stark version of Jordan. Some of the effects look a little cartoonish, but the movie itself doesn’t arrive until the middle of next year, it’s probably too early to read into that.

Watch the trailer and let us know if it makes you want to see the movie, which will be released on June 17.
