Sent to live with his rather eccentric uncle Jonathan Barnavelt, who turns out to be a rather poor warlock, puts Lewis in a strange house with a sinister ticking in its walls. The previous owners were practitioners of the dark arts, and the ticking is a hidden clock, made to bring the universe into alignment so that the creators can destroy it. Based on the 1973 novel by John Bellairs and illustrated by Edward Gorey, The House with a Clock in Its Walls stars Kyle MacLachlan, Cate Blanchette, and Jack Black. The film comes to theaters September 2018.

Blaze

Born in 1949, Blaze Foley lived the outlaw country life that would inspire a whole host of successful musicians — something Blaze himself never found. One of his closest friends was Townes Van Zandt, and the two of them couldn't be more alike musically or philosophically, which should tell you something about Blaze. Directed by Ethan Hawke, Blaze looks at three important stages of his life: His love affair with Sybil Rosen, his last night on Earth, and the effect his music has had since his untimely death. The film opens in Blaze's adopted hometown of Austin, Texas, on August 17, 2018.

Wayne Enterprises x Uncrate x Fysik KRABA Kettlebell

When Wayne Enterprises and Uncrate set out to commission custom weights worthy of the Bruce Waynes of the world, the goal was to ensure a kettlebell that looked nothing like anything else on the market was included. That goal led to producing a custom version of Fysik's KRABA. Made to match the NAK dumbbells in the Wayne Enterprises collection, each kettlebell is comprised of a large, black-stained ash wood grip and chassis that holds dual weights comprised of bronze PVD coated stainless steel and a carbon kevlar resin wrap. The wooden chassis will "rock" when set down but will not tip over, ensuring the kettlebell always remains upright even if placed down quickly. It arrives in a galvanized steel storage box that sits upright and is held closed by a tactical nylon belt.

30lb set: In stock and ready to ship
35lb set: 6-week lead time
40lb set: 6-week lead time
Other weights: Available upon custom request

They beat the old record by over 15 seconds — almost an eternity when first place can come down to thousandths of a second. Mark Robber was challenged by VW to make a battery that could charge the I.D. R, and decided on one of the oldest tricks in the book — making a lemon battery and trying to break a world record himself.
