10 Things To Watch On Disney+

Now that we have had a few days to sit down and have a look through the awesome streaming service from Disney known as Disney+, we have come up with 10 must watch items from the service. Whether this be new content or old classics, we believe these are the 10 best things to watch. In no particular order of course!

The Simpsons

Who doesnt like The Simpsons? Seriously. Disney+ have put up 29 seasons of the longest running animation series and this is probably more then enough to binge on. We know that there are some seasons worth watching more then others. But is still a watch no matter what

The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian has become an instant classic only after 2 episodes. Without giving much away, we definately recommend this sci-fi western which is truly a breath of fresh air in the Star Wars universe. We are looking forward as to where this series will go

Who Framed Roger Rabbit

A 1988 classic movie from the mastermind behind the Back To The Future trilogy. Watching this has instantly brought back so many memories from being a kid. As for animation x live action movies go, this one is one of the best (not as good as Space Jam, but seriously close)

The World According to Jeff Goldblum

Its probably safe to say that Jeff Goldblum is one of the most wonderfully weird personalitites in hollywood right now. He does things outside the box and this series that National Geographic has given him is truly unique. The first episode in this series is right up our alley in relation to Sneakers. Its a must watch.

The Rocketeer

Another nostalgia movie that was an instant classic in the 90s. The Rocketeer follows the story of a stunt pilot who discovers a rocket powered jetpack and sets out to do good in the world of LA in the 1930s. He however finds himself on the run from the FBI and fighting Nazi’s.

The Mighty Ducks

If you were a kid in the 90s, you definately loved The Mighty Ducks. The sequels however werent as good as the original but you can re-live all of them over again on Disney+

Tron: Legacy

It’s to our belief that this slick, modern follow-up to the 80s cult hit never got the cultural recognition it deserved (in terms of box office profits they did just fine). What better way to pay it tribute then rewatching this high-concept action-adventure film? Starring Jeff Bridges, Olivia Wilde, and Garrett Hedlund, Tron: Legacy definately lives up to the hype.

Iron Man

Go back to where it all started for the Marvel Universe. Before all the insane crossovers and billion dollar team ups in which what started the Infinity Saga on its path to the deadly Thanos. Also was the movie that re-kick started Robert Downey Jnr’s career and turned him into one of the best actors on the planet today

Cool Runnings

Those crazy cats from Jamaica are on Disney+ showing what a dream of competing in the Winter Olympics can look like from a country that never sees snow. Another nostalgic movie worth a re-watch

Avengers: Endgame

The movie to end all movies in the Infinity Saga series. The highest grossing movie of all time is on the streaming service. Another must watch but be sure to set some time and watch the entire 22 Marvel movies in order if you can.

If you dont have Disney+, you can get it with a 7-day free trial through this link

Let us know what you think the must watches are.

Motorola Razr 2019 Announcement

Motorola Razr 2019 Announcement

The next trend in smartphones appears to be heading down the Foldable path now with Samsung already on the market with the phone and now Motorola have joined the race and resurrected a classic phone and its probably the Razr version we have always wanted.

The 2019 Razr is due to arrive in January 2020 with a 6.2 inch foldable plastic OLED screen and running Android 9 Pie.

    This version of the Razr is a true heir to the original flip phone with a design that’s heavily inspired by its 2004 version.

    The core of the phone is, of course, the display. It’s a 6.2-inch 21:9 plastic OLED panel that folds in half along the horizontal axis. Unfolded, it’s not dramatically bigger than any other modern phone, and the extra height is something that the Android interface and apps adapt to far better than a tablet-size screen. The screen does have a notch on top for a speaker and camera and a curved edge on the bottom, which takes a bit of getting used to, but after a minute or two, you barely notice it.
    There’s also a second, 2.7-inch glass-covered OLED display on the outside that Motorola calls the Quick View display. It can show notifications, music controls, and even a selfie camera mode to take advantage of the better main camera. Motorola is also working with Google to let apps seamlessly transition from the front display to the main one.

    Let us know what you think about this phone? Can this be the lifeline Motorola needs to bring it into the smartphone market?

      Beverly Hills Cop 4 with Eddie Murphy heads to Netflix

      Axel Foley is ready to ride again!

      Finally, Eddie Murphy has confirmed that the infamous detective is finally getting the the 4th Beverly Hills Cop movie thanks to a deal between Paramount Studios & Netflix.

      Eddie Murphy will return alongside producer Jerry Bruckheimer 25 years after Beverly Hills Cop 3 hit our cinemas. Netflix will work with the duo and Paramount to finance the movie, hire a director, develop scripts and release the sequel on the streaming platform.

      A fourth movie has been talked about for years, even the chance of a TV series but nothing ever came about. Looks like 2020 will be a big year for Eddie Murphy who is also planning a stand up comedy tour and a return to Saturday Night Live as a host.

      Stay tuned for more info on this.

      Nike Officially Introduces the Jordan Retro 11 “Bred” 2019

      Overnight, Nike has finally revealed the most anicapted sneaker release fo 2019, the Jordan Retro 11 “Bred”.

      First worn on the NBA courts April 26, 1996, the Air Jordan XI Black/True Red-White signaled playoff seriousness. The colorway, the third for the silhouette, took a title and started a second three-peat. Fittingly, it will release again this year, and for the first time since 2012, to mark the 10th anniversary of Jordan Brand’s annual holiday celebration of the Jordan XI.

      The shoe ranks high among Jordan grails. It has, like all the greats, transcended basketball. And as with all truly classic sneakers, it is coveted by athletes of all stripes.

      The Jordan Retro 11 “Bred” will release here in Australia on Saturday 14th Decemeber in a full family size run. This is definately one sneaker that all Jordan fans will want to get their hands on. Dont be surprised if these release EVERYWHERE across all major retailers as we are hearing there is plenty to go around.

      Check out the photos below and let us know if you’re planning on copping these!

      Sonic The Hedgehog Official Trailer

      Now the reason why we say official trailer as we dont consider the first trailer that Paramount Pictures dropped a few months ago an actual trailer.

      Paramount Pictures copped alot of backlash after the first trailer in the way Sonic actually looked. So for once the studio listened to the fans and went back to the drawing board to make Sonic look like Soinc.

      And here is how we got to today. That’s right folks, Paramount Pictures has dropped the new trailer for the upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie which is due to hit cinemas here in Australia early 2020 (no actual confirmed release date yet

      Tell us what you think? Were the changes worth it and has made it look better?

      The Kickz Stand’s Top Weekly Hit List #17

      “I had a hard time coping this pair. Always ended up with the inevitable ‘L.’ (Nothing new these days) But when there’s a will, there’s always a way.

      I immediately unDS’d and took a shot of the kicks a week after I got em. What attracted me the most about the pair is the simple mixture of light and dark blue. The ‘buttery’ leather of course added to its overall beauty and appeal.
      I reckon the blue toned steel bench made the obsidian/UNC colorway popped more and enhanced the composition of the shot.

      If you are into your J1s, it’s definitely worth adding to your collection.”

      30th Anniversary of the Gel-Lyte III

      30th Anniversary of the Gel-Lyte III

      30 years ago the GEL-LYTE™ III model broke the mould of traditional sneaker design, heralding individualism and rebelling against constrictive norms. Today ASICS SportStyle celebrates that tradition, creating a new campaign for the iconic silhouette.

      The GEL-LYTE™ III model has a history of going against tradition and subverting stereotypes, with this new iteration being no different. In the new campaign we see school children, salary men and elderly citizens, all of whom are expected to wear plain and formal footwear, deviating from social norms and wearing bright and vibrant GEL-LYTE™ III model’s highlighting the sneakers and the stark contrast from the rest of their traditional uniform. The campaign is an overall celebration, engaging both loyal fans as well as introducing the model to a new generation.

      The rebellious nature of the GEL-LYTE™ III model stems from the defiant approach of the original designer Shigeyuki Mitsui. Repeatedly told that his designs were too complex and aesthetically challenging, he set out to forge his own path and prove his peers wrong. Mitsui speaks on his unorthodox method within the design process “I confuse the production engineers, at first, they refuse my design method. Finally, they found it a great solution.” His efforts were realised when the distinctive new shape of the GEL-LYTE™ model took form and became a brand-defining silhouette – with its now famous split between the tongue and gel sole. The shoot is part of the Go Against All Odds campaign dedicated to Mitsui’s spirit of disregarding the status quo.

      The GEL-LYTE III™ model will be available in four different styles; the GEL-LYTE III™ OG model Green/Yellow will launch first at selected outlets on the 15th of November 2019 with a worldwide release on the 6th of December 2019, the second OG colour in Orange/Black as well as the Black and Light Grey colourways all release worldwide on the 3rd of January 2020.
