Case of The Mondays: Vans Team at Pretty Sweet Premiere
Posted Nov. 19, 2012, 4:35 a.m. /
The Girl / Chocolate family premiered their latest skateboard feature, Pretty Sweet, at the upscale Orpheum Theater in downtown LA. Our man-child Elijah Berle had his debut part in this skateboarding blockbuster. As expected, the film had its slick production value, mind boggling special effects, techno soundtrack, celebrity cameos and the latest skateboard flip-trickery in eye gouging high definition. After the curtain dropped the crowd roared and felt empowered by this video bombshell and flooded the streets looking for the nearest ledge to dance on. Trend forecast: Soccer jerseys, trips to China, pros re-emerging from obscurity, super slow-mo, skating in your house and the heli-cam. In keeping with the theme of the night the Chocolateers went big for the after party at 333 Live with laser lights, fog machines, LED rave wands, a white rapper, a Snoop Dogg appearance and the LAPD. Well done Girl / Chocolate and kudos to young Elijah Berle for a stand out part in a video that will inspire generations to come.
