Soda Pop Dreams Goes Hollywood... maybe.

In the not-too-distant-future, Soda Pop Dreams Magazine may be going Hollywood. First off, I'm working on a story at the moment dedicated to Pepsi-related Star Wars memorabilia in honor of the summer's biggest blockbuster in years, Star Wars Episode III. Pepsi's affiliation with Episode I-III has produced some fantastic cross-promotion items (of interest to both Star Wars fanatics and Pepsi collectors). Signs, bottles, cans, P.O.S. displays, and so much more. Since this is the final movie in the saga, it's only fitting that we pay homage to Pepsi and Star Wars for our upcoming Summer 2005 print edition. Currently on eBay, there are more than 500 Pepsi Star Wars items up for bids. And that, folks, is only the beginning.

Hollywood continues: last week I got a call from a production manager in Vancouver, British Columbia. He's in the process of compiling props to appear in a movie that's starting production next week. The movie takes place, in part, in a fictional beverage company called 'Alpine Beverage'. He came across the Soda Pop Dreams Magazine website and figured that since we are dedicated exclusively to the beverage industry and soda pop collecting, that the magazine would be perfect for props... in background shots of the beverage company office, that sort of thing. So, while nothing is set in stone (we'll probably end up on the cutting room floor), copies of Soda Pop Dreams and The Soda Spectrum Series are now on their way to Vancouver to debut as 'movie props'.

Oh yeah, the movie is called "RV" and did I mention... it stars Robin Williams. 'Nuff said.
