California Grill at Disney's Contemporary Resort

Located at the top of Disney's Contemporary Resort, the California Grill is one of the premiere dining experiences at Walt Disney World in Florida

Enticed by their 50th Anniversary Celebration Menu (as both Walt Disney World and the Contemporary were turning 50) we decided to splurge on a culinary experience that included Heirloom Apple Salad, Duck L'Orange Pizza, 35 oz. Beef Rib-Eye Tomahawk Steak, an array of 50th dessert samplers, Grand Marnier Souffle, champagne, and coffee service.  

Needless to say, the 50th Anniversary Celebration Menu was both amazing and the most expensive dining experience of our entire two week trip (by quite a large margin). Throw in the incredible view of the fireworks going off over the Magic Kingdom, plus the impeccable service, and our evening at the top of the Contemporary was easily one of the most unforgettable moments we had during the 50th celebrations at Walt Disney World.

Vintage Monarch Theatre Movie Ad Prints: Series 1

Part limited-edition print release, part official merch drop for my upcoming documentary, today I released a collection of 10 cardstock prints featuring custom-restored movie ads from the Monarch Theatre in Medicine Hat, Alberta.

Created as part of the production for "Your Cinema Needs You", the soon to be released feature-length documentary about Canada's oldest surviving cinema, these prints feature stylized ads spanning the Monarch Theatre's history from the silent era up into the 1980s.



Each print is 5x7" and is printed on a heavy cardstock, matte laminated on the image side, and features the documentary film logo and description on the reverse. These prints were restored from uncovered negatives, were custom edited and stylized for "Your Cinema Needs You", and each one specifically references the Monarch Theatre and just some of the notable films that played there - because of this process, this collection does not exist anywhere else.

The collection of 10 prints is available for $60 and includes a free pop & popcorn enamel pin set in addition to free shipping. Full details for this flash sale are on the Editing Luke Facebook page as of today (while stock lasts).

Prints in series one include: Silent Era 1, Charlie Chaplin, Silent Era 2, Wizard of OZ, King Kong, Gone With the Wind, Mid-Century 1, Mid-Century 2, Jaws, and Raiders of the Lost Ark.
