Tickets should go on sale this week, but I do not have a link to post yet. My advice is keep your eyes peeled on the <a href="http://www.regencymovies.com/main.php?theaterId=16" rel="nofollow">Fairfax Cinemas</a> site as well as <a href="http://www.johnnycupcakes.com/events/" rel="nofollow">Johnny Cupcakes'</a> site.

His designs are always fresh and awesome. Unlike most clothing companies, he isn't a sell-out, which is a good thing. I like that he has limited edition items. When I wear my JC tees or bring my tote along, I do get questioned, and I'm always glad to tell 'em about him and his legacy. I'm the kind of girl who most guys could take home to mom. But I'm also the kind of girl who could rock out at a show. The cool thing is, I can always wear/have something JC with me, and it'll be appreciated. No matter where. I'm also quite dedicated. I've camped out twice now for JC. I camped out for his grand opening in LA for 6 days on Melrose. I was #18 out of God knows how many people. Recently I camped out for the 1yr anniversary. 5 days was waaay worth being #6. That goonies tee has been teasing since stepping into the shop. Plus, I love the goonies. =) I love Johnny Cupcakes, because he’s a really nice guy.

Yes. "Even so chances are you’ve seen his designs somewhere." Sorry, no. Nikki75--there's a big difference between the Big Lebowski, Raising Arizona, and The Goonies. Besides the fact that The Goonies wasn't directed by the Coen Bros., it's appeal is sort of limited to a certain demographic. You had to be a kid or younger and seen it when it was released to really like it, I think. I think nostalgia is the big selling point of it. So even if you were you are the right age to like it, seeing it as an adult you won't have the same reaction as someone the same age that's seen it many times. “Heck, it’s possible you may not even know who Johnny Cupcakes is.”
Yes.

Sorry, no.

Yesterday my Facebook status read "Nicole has never seen The Big Lebowski, Raising Arizona, or the Goonies". There has been an all out attack on me since then. I MUST see the Goonies or face an angry mob. Also, whenever my husband wears his Johnny Cupcakes shirt I know I made the right decision. Ack!

So perhaps this is why I love Johnny Cupcakes so much...his designs and the spirit of his company speaks to so many facets of me. I'm 27 and pretty much all of the 80's pop culture & movie references used in JC clothing hold a great deal of nostalgia and fond memories for me. I have been a huge supporter of JC for years now, ever since the urban outfitters scandal back in the day when they tried to steal one of Johnny Cupcakes designs. When I'm out wearing a JC shirt people always ask me "What's that?" and everywhere I go I tell the story of Johnny Cupcakes as best I can remember. There is something so cute and a little tough about a cupcake & cross bones and I think that's how I like to think of myself...cute, but a little tough!
