Black Mirror: Bandersnatch Featurette
Netflix's Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is a legitimate attempt at interactive television — something that has been tried before, but with less-than-stellar results. Following the story of a young programmer who tries to adapt a fantasy novel into a video game, the show has something along the lines of eight endings. Not just a technical challenge, writing a compelling story is hard enough without finding multiple ways to end it. Go behind the scenes as the crew talks about what it took to bring the Bandersnatch to the screen for what might be a landmark moment in TV.
Captain Marvel
A scene after the end of the credits in Avengers: Infinity War set the stage for the latest addition to the MCU — Captain Marvel. The film follows Carol Danvers' return to Earth with her superpowers after joining the Spaceforce, which means this won't be an origin story. Carol seems to have forgotten much of her life before joining the Spaceforce, with flashbacks to her time as a child, basic training, and flying in the Air Force. The trailer also shows a young Nick Fury, a lot less cynical than when we initially met him in Iron Man. Starring Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson, Captain Marvel comes to theaters March 8, 2019.

Adidas Superstar Sneaker
The first Superstars landed on basketball courts in the 1970s, before the hip hop world made them famous in the '80s. Still iconic to this day, the Superstar is going back to its roots with a design inspired by a vintage B-ball favorite: The Americana. The full-leather, low-top provides comfort and cushioning with a memory foam sockliner, a tough rubber outsole, and the iconic shell toe that is a Superstar signature. This limited edition is available in three colorways and bears Americana vs. Superstar branding on the tongue.

Building A Guitar Out of Colored Pencils
Building a guitar was once the province of skilled luthiers, selecting wood for their tonal properties and shaping each piece by hand to create an instrument. Then came Leo Fender, who brought guitar making into the modern age by taking a page from the automotive industry and simplifying the process — and cementing the guitar as the most popular instrument in the world. Fender's production techniques also brought guitar building to the masses and unleashed a massive amount of creativity to the form. This guitar by Burls Art is made of 1200 colored pencils set in epoxy resin and one of the most creative guitars we've ever seen.
