A great film score can be one of the most memorable aspects of a film, sometimes even more so. People who haven't even seen the Star Wars films can hum the theme from the original trilogy, and the same goes for well-loved franchises like the James Bond and more recent Harry Potter films. But ask fans of the massive Marvel franchise to recall a score from any of the 13 or so movies, and you'll most likely get blank stares. Despite being the highest-grossing film franchise of all time, Marvel's film scores have fallen flat in emotional appeal.

Reading Closed Books

At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, you don't even have to open a book to read it — almost. Research Scientist Barmak Heshmat and his team at the MIT Media Lab are able to image the contents of samples similar to closed books, with the goal of being able to analyze texts and documents that are too delicate or degraded to touch.

The White Stripes / City Lights

Filmmaker Michel Gondry surprised Jack White's Third Man Records with a very special gift — a music video for the previously unreleased White Stripes track "City Lights". Originally written for the 2005 album "Get Behind Me Satan", the track was dropped from the album and remained forgotten until Jack White finished it for a vinyl re-release of the record in 2015. Michel Gondry secretly shot the video by himself before delivering it to Third Man Records.

Fury Road Practical Effects

Sometimes the only way to make a two-hour chase scene, in the desert, with massive rusted-out hulks trying to flip and blow each other up is to get all that out in the desert and film it. George Miller famously eschewed modern-day bandaids like green screens and computer-generated backgrounds in Mad Max: Fury Road, capturing nearly all the explosions, wrecks, and flaming guitars in real-time with a real camera. This supercut splices together pre-production test clips and footage from the actual film to remind you that if you want it look real, you better do it in real life.
