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:
Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!
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.
If there were a Michelin star for public murals, Roamcouch would have it. No debate. His art is an elegant contradiction; it stops you in mid-stride and makes you stare. You argue with what you see. He works with scenes from everyday life, nothing fancy, then drops them into backgrounds full of playfulness and surprise. His murals feel like small rebellions, and they insist on being noticed. Here are some of his recent street art works. Roamcouch has a Facebook page and a website where you can find all his work.
