We African't Believe These Classic Movie Posters!
Now there's no shocked faces among those of you reading this that we're huuuuuge 80s films lovers which of course inspired our simply epic range of Movie T-Shirts *wink wink*. Being raised at possibly one of the most exciting decades for cinema (not biased at all!), with huge special affects looking ever more real 'ahem' and the stories taking us into far and distant lands where anything and everything was possible, we're sure that the 80s was THEEE time that brought about some of the most iconic films that even today people can get excited about watching.
During this rose tinted time, the western world was pretty sure footed in its cinema going days, sadly however in the African country of Ghana and other surrounding countries, the film industry was only really just taking off.
With very little disposable income available to most people, the idea of building big cinema complexes seemed like a distant dream (and sadly still is in a lot of areas). So! Instead, small companies would go around with portable TVs, video players and a bag full of videos, visiting every town or village in turn, with film 'screenings' taking place in schools during the day, and outside at night.
Now to really bring in the crowds, these little pop up screens would commission artists to re-create some of the most iconic movie posters to advertise what they would be showing. This has resulted in some pretty amazing takes on the classics which is what we'd like to show you know......sit back and enjoy!

We love TruffleShuffle tees just as much as you do!
Working for the biggest online retailer of cool t-shirts, we see our fair share of amazing tees hit the shelves...! But which ones have stuck out? Do we have a favourite..and why do we love them so much? I've grabbed 10 minutes with a few of my favourite TruffleShufflers and asked them about their fashion tee-ndencies while they've worked here, and what generally makes them tick when it comes to the world of retro! Enjoy!
First up is James, the designer for TruffleShuffle (he's the one responsible for all the cool t-shirts - so we should probably take 5 minutes to applaud his geniusness!)
Favourite t-shirt ever produced? - Old Skool Gamer T-Shirt. I've been a massive computer game fan since I was about 10, so to get the opportunity to design a T-Shirt featuring all my favourite consoles and controllers was a bit of a treat.
Favourite range you've ever designed? - Sesame Street is always really fun to work with, they've got such a versatile range of characters and we're always allowed to do quite weird and wonderful things with them. Whether we've got Elmo and the gang crossing Abbey Road, joining a rock group or even recreating the Trainspotting movie poster they always make it look cool!
What was your first t-shirt ever purchased from TruffleShuffle? - My first T-Shirt from TruffleShuffle was one featuring Pac-Man and one of the Ghosts taking over Tokyo, it managed to look retro and modern at the same time and is still one of the favourite items in my wardrobe! It came from Chunk clothing who are always experts in doing weird mash ups with their characters.
