Ray Ban Visionary Award? Thats a weird one.

Never heard of it.



But still… go QT!

Previous award winners include actors Aaron Eckhart, Matt Dillon, Kevin Bacon, President of HBO Films Colin Callender and EVP/COO New Line Productions and President of Fine Line Features Mark Ordesky.

Ray ban is a hat company isn’t?

Don’t they specialise in sun glasses?

sun glasses baby, the coolest sun glasses. 8) http://www.ray-ban.com

QT to recieve the sun glasses award ???

Makes sense, Stuntman Mike wore Ray Bans in Death Proof.

Ummm, yeah









??? ??? ???

It’s not the glasses, it’s what they represent. If you read the article, it’s about ‘originality’. and that’s what Ray-Ban tries to portray in their product.

Stuntman Mike wore Ray Bans in Death Proof. That may not be specifically why he got it, but it could possibly be one of the other reasons why they chose him.



If you actually looked into this, you’d know that Ray Ban sunglasses have been featured in films for decades. Death Proof is one of the hundreds of films that feature Ray Bans.



So QT having a character wear Ray Bans in his film has ZERO to do with it?



Ummm, yeah.

Coolness. His hair looks good that way.

QT and The Hopper! 8)

Cliff Worley and the REAL Clarence! :slight_smile:



“Clarence, look, I’m glad to see ya, but…SLOW IT DOWWWN MAAAN”

In the pics posted earlier where QT was wearing the same thing (might have been the same day), was he wearing Ray Ban’s?

Could be Ray Ban’s, I’m sure he’s gettin them shits for free.
