That’s right Marvel fans, it looks like after weeks of negotiations over Peter Parker’s future in the MCU, it looks like that our friendly neighbourhood spider is coming back for one more adventure.

Marvel Studios & Sony Pictures have agreed to make one final movie that will finish the trilogy that begin with Spiderman: Homecoming. According to the reports the main cast from the first 2 movies will be back for the 3rd.

This does not mean this is the last outing for Tom Holland as Peter Parker as Sony plan on continuing his adventures away from the MCU.

With this deal now in place, its been reported that the 3rd Spiderman movie now has a release date of July 16th 2021. This will be the 4th MCU movie set to release in 2021 as Spiderman 3 will join Shang-Chi & The Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love & Thunder. There will also be a set of Disney+ shows set in the MCU coming in 2021 as well made up of Loki, Wandavision, Hawkeye & What If…?.

Following the third Spider-Man film, Tom Holland’s Peter Parker can appear in other Marvel Studios movies or Sony movies, though joint productions between the studios will not continue.

Stay tuned for more

The Kickz Stand’s Top Weekly Hit List #15

“I was in love at first sight!

The simple colorway, amazing leather and major detailing to the swoosh and lining. I’ve always loved Parra, but I can’t justify the prices on their already released styles. I am a sucker for flat sneakers and the dunk is the perfect flat shoe. This colorway is straight up my alley.

I had 3 different mates enter the raffle for me, but to no avail. But while at a friends place, a mate from #azpoo reminded me of the release on the Nike website. I wasn’t expecting to have luck but the sneaker god where watching over me that day. During the release, for 15 minutes the website kept saying the dreaded ‘error, please try again.’ Then it said ‘SOLD OUT.’ But I kept on refreshing the page and eventually managed to snag a pair — cheaper than any of the potential cop methods! I could not believe my luck!!!

I was shooting this in the city, I thought I was done for the day. then I turned into a random alley way and saw this magnificent graffiti. Balancing on a curb, camera gently angled on the floor and with the amazing graffiti work behind me I was able to take this perfect snap!”

G-SHOCK Collaborates with the World-Famous Virtual Group Gorillaz

0

The world-famous British virtual band the Gorillaz collaborates again with G-SHOCK. They first collaborated with in 2018 which resulted in a series of special videos that made waves, featuring father of G-SHOCK Kikuo Ibe guesting and interacting with the members of Gorillaz (2D, Murdoc Niccals, Noodle and Russel Hobbs).

Watch here: https://world.g-shock.com/gorillaz/

G-SHOCK models GW-B5600GZ and GA-2000GZ are designed with the motifs and colours inspired by the Gorillaz album covers. Both will come in special packaging that matches the respective colors of the watches, showcasing two collaboration models that richly evoke the world view of Gorillaz.

The new GW-B5600GZ is the square-shaped GW-B5600 digital watch with Bluetooth® communication and solar-powered radio control. The watch features a black watch face, and the band features a combination of pop blue and pink inspired by the hues from the latest Gorillaz album “NOW NOW.” The message “NOW” floats onto the display whenever it is illuminated with the LED backlight.

And for the new GA-2000GZ is the digital-analog combination watch GA-2000, which employs a new carbon construction with the ability to switch watch bands. The entire watch band features a vivid green camouflage pattern inspired by the cover of Gorillaz’s eponymous first album. A second watch band is included and features a darker-hued camouflage pattern, so that users can coordinate with their clothing.

The official release for both G-SHOCK x Gorillaz collaboration models will be tomorrow the 21st of September. Make sure you check out your local G-SHOCK retailers before stocks all run out.

“It’s More Than Just Sneakers” Brisbane 2019 Recap

0

The 4th stop on the “It’s More Than Just Sneakers” Lifestyle tour took us north of the border to Brisbane, QLD. This was the 3rd time we have held the event up north in the sunshine state and it never fails to disappoint.

The lineup begins early in Brisbane

Myself personally, having missed last year it was good to make the road trip up to Brisbane from Sydney. Loaded up the van and took the supplies up for the boys to help out at another event. The Brisbane event was shaping up to be a good one this year. A full house of traders and plenty of people coming through the doors once again. The weather was also on point living up to the sunshine coast’s name.

One of the TKS team members that lives in QLD, Paul gave us an insight as to what he thought about the day giving it was in his home state. “Being able to interact with people of all ages having the same conversation 15 different ways was very humbling. We are blessed with the family mentality in this scene and it definitely brought it to Brisbane making the event much more then it ever intended to be. With vendors coming from interstate to support the locals and the surprising vendor of the day was QLD rail who had a very busy stand spreading awareness. The crowd super supportive and the showcase of diversity in this love we have of sneakers.”

Queensland Rail’s new safety campaign, “High Voltage Can Jump” targets risk taking behaviour on the rail network whilst raising awareness of the hidden dangers of the overhead powerlines which carry 25,000 volts – 100 times more powerful than the domestic supply. The campaign highlights that people do not have to come into direct contact with overhead lines to suffer an electric shock or worse, electrocution. The strength of 25,000 volts in the overhead power line system means electricity can jump and arc out, not just destroying soles, but friendships, relationships and families.

Overall this was another successful event. We want to thank everyone that came along and supported us once again. Plenty of prizes were given away through the raffle tickets once again. And just to give you guys some incentive to purchase those extra raffle tickets, just before the main raffle at 2:30pm, a person dropped $20 worth of tickets 5 minutes before the cutoff and walked home with a $200 Footlocker Gift Voucher as well as a full collection of the Star Wars x Bata Heritage collection (which did not release in Australia). Not bad for a $20 investment.

Here is also a quick video recap of the event from Lawrence aka DJ-Lorman

Next up is the final event of the year to be held in our home town of Sydney. For more information on the Sydney event, head over to the facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/2071240756324182/
