Benedict Cumberbatch continues his quest for awesomeness in 'Doctor Strange'
Doctor Strange looks like a grown up Marvel movie. It is by Scott Derrickson, whose previous films include The Day the Earth Stood Still and Sinister. He specializes in the macabre and the unusual. He wants to make you scream. Benedict Cumberbatch plays Dr. Stephen Strange, one of the best neurosurgeons in the world. After being severely injured in a terrible car accident, he heads to India to find a way to repair his trembling hands. He eventually meets the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) and her student Karl Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and soon goes on a quest to master the magical arts.
The film, which also stars Rachel McAdams, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Mads Mikkelsen, opens in theaters on November 4. Check out the trailer below:

It's a wonderful harmony: the past rendered perfectly in the present. Nihonga is basically Japanese painting that gets its look from using mineral pigments (and sometimes ink) on surfaces like silk or paper. The term was created back in the Meiji period (1868–1912) just so people could tell it apart from Yōga, which is what they called Western-style painting. Art was everywhere in Poshichi's childhood: the grandfather ran a framing shop, and the grandma was an art teacher. Poshichi loved to draw, and was destined for an art career. But, you know how it goes—life had other plans. Thankfully, a friend encouraged the Japanese artist not to quit drawing, even if just as a hobby. Though Poshichi initially created dark, gloomy pieces due to depression, adopting a cat two years ago changed everything. “I felt the nee...
These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
