Now I know this is way off topic, but I'm curious as to the types of clothes posters wear...Now this is could turn into a very long tab, or it couldn't, eitherways I'll apologize for the non-movie related tab now.
Today, it was mostly just a grayish t-shirt with some little ridged line thingies vertically all over it, a dark green (forest green...like the color of the DVD button background up at the top...best color, ever) button-shirt over it (not buttoned) with this one fl and white strip a little over the midsection.
But the problem is they used to change the color every season (navy blue, tan, etc) but now they don't anymore so all i have is a yucky tan, but that's limited my shoe flair the past couple years.

The blue jeans become a talisman, passed from pal to pal during their eventful first summer apart.
The jeans' least exotic destination is back in their hometown, where Tibby (Tamblyn, star of "Joan of Arcadia" until the series was axed a few weeks ago) is stacking shelves at a Wal-Mart-like emporium to earn money to make documentaries.

 calendarlive.com: MOVIE REVIEW - 'Starsky & Hutch'
In the new movie based on the old series, Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson star as the titular couple, homicide detectives working in the fictional Bay City.
Of course neither Scorsese nor Anderson built their movies on 1970s fetishism or trashy old television shows, but on characters, a sense of time, a sense of place and ideas.
Wilson and Stiller can be hugely appealing performers and their light-and-dark dynamic has worked well in such different films as "Permanent Midnight" and "Zoolander." If the latter, a sketch of an idea blown up to feature proportions, worked as well as it did, it's because the two gave themselves over completely to their characters.
