What Film Features The Coolest Sunglasses

[Poi E]

Nah you can get 58's as well. I think they are even harder to find though

Wicked stoner sunnies anyway. Make even the greyest day seem brighter.

 

[Yetman]

I'm on the hunt as we speak mate!

 

[Badgers]

Maybe we could have a Fear & Loathing Sunglasses Board Meet once you get them sorted Yetty?

 

[Yetman]

Sounds good to me mate!
I’ll bring the weed, hash, acid, mdma, mushrooms, coke and ether if you can sort the rest

Blows my weekend

The Top Gun aviators are great, I got a pair of genuine ex USAAF ones. The lens were made of glass, and the arms had spring like devices to keep them on. Unfortunately Mrs D sat on them and being glass....

They didn't say RayBan they said Bausch & Lomb. (Who, I think, make RayBan)

I'm on the hunt as we speak mate!

How did you get on?

 

[kained&able]

renegade was right and the thread should be done. Terminator for the win! Especially in t2 with the seeing in the reflection of the lense bit. That was way ahead of its time!

They Live, of course, not just for the magic properties of the glasses, but because they're damn cool.

'I'm giving you a choice: either put on these glasses or start eatin' that trash can.'

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

In terms of ability :

I got sent this the other day. I can't wait!

Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia:

 

[Sabu]

Sunglasses, trenchcoats and guns years before the Matrix.

 

[kabbes]

Book, not film. And I can't find a decent visualisation of it. But Molly from Neuromancer (and sequels) by William Gibson FTW, without a doubt. Sunglasses embedded into the eyesockets with a full HUD on them.

 

[Homeless Mal]

Cyclops

Julian

Chopper

 

[El Jefe]

Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia:

the obvious winner

 

[HackneyE9]

Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia:

Beat me to it. Great performance, too. Currently on revival at the BFI, I Believe.

No mention of The Blue Brothers yet.

 

[Badgers]

Had totally forgotten Jake & Elwood ^ ^

 

[cybertect]

I was just about to quote them till I got to this page.

I will anyway.

"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses - Hit it!"

 

[brixtonvilla]

Yeah....

The Matrix was a merchandising miracle of a film.

Apart, oddly enough, from the sunglasses, which were bespoke and made to suit each actor's face. Apparently.

 

[Yetman]

How did you get on?

Got some toward the end of last year off some arsey american prat

Think they are a later re-issue than the originals in the movie as they have the ray ban logo on them, thats not a problem though. Everything else is exactly the same - would be good to know which year they were made though

Paid the same as you did for them as well, get in

 

[Badgers]

Sweet news mate...

Next time we are in the pub we will both wear them and look super-mega-cool like we always wanted

 

[Yetman]

We'll be like, totally unstoppable

Gee this is gonna be so cool. I knew we rocked

 

[Refused as fuck]

 

[Griff]

No mention of the Lamborghini Miura driver's shades at the start of the Italian Job then?

Cool shades and a cool car.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

fucking cool
