Dialect coach Erik Singer is an expert on accents, and he's really good at his job. WIRED invited him to critique the accents of 32 actors, from the late Phillip Seymour Hoffman's excellent Truman Capote, to Kevin Costner's terrible Robin Hood. The subtleties of what goes into creating an accent for the screen are amazing.
Monsters do exists. In Jordan Vogt-Roberts' King Kong reboot, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, and Brie Larson travel to an island where a gigantic angry ape is the least of their problems, because there's also gigantic lizards, gigantic water buffalo, and a normal size John C. Reilly. Cross your fingers for a monster-to-monster throw down when the film comes to theaters March 10, 2017.
The Roots and Metallica just made the collaboration no one saw coming.

You may love it, you may hate it, but you will respect the way Lars throws down on the mini cymbals.

The Jordan Trunner has always lived at the intersection of performance and possibility. First introduced in the late '90s, it was the Jordan brand's bold step beyond basketball—a slip-on cross-trainer with midfoot straps, layered uppers, and a design language that looked more like the future than the present. The latest Trunner carries that same DNA, fusing breathable mesh and suede for flexibility, molded wings for support, and responsive foam for all-day comfort. Still versatile, still unmistakable, the Trunner remains the rare shoe built to keep pace with training while doubling as a lifestyle staple grounded in Jordan's restless drive forward.

David Blaine got biblical on Drake, Stephen Curry, and Dave Chappelle on the latest episode of Beyond Magic. Asked to draw a small animal, Chappelle drew a frog — and Blaine produced three of them out of his mouth. The reactions are priceless, but it's doubtful anyone was kissing the magician that night.
