I am loving these simplistic movie posters, imagined by Swedish designer Patrik Svensson of Prince Hat. Not only do they bring out some of the best and most memorable elements from each movie, they also accomplish this with the use of as fewest attributes as possible. A couple of them are a bit difficult to comprehend (Can someone explain The Usual Suspects one for me? That looks like two paper clips...

After visiting Harry Potter: The Exhibition in person, AND knowing that the final movie is due to be released in theaters in just a couple of months, I have slowly started to re-read the entire series again (probably for about the sixth time). I don't know what it is about J.K. Rowling, but that woman can write. There is just so much to love about each book and I discover new things every time I re-read each title.

It's confession time, boys and girls! I don't particularly like the book The Devil Wears Prada. I don't think the movie was that great either (despite the oh-so-fab outfits). So why is it that I've read the book numerous times, and watched the movie more times than I would like to admit? Are there any books or movies that have the same effect on you? Anyhow, the reason I bring up this guilty pleasure of mine can be credited to an artist named Lisa Hanawalt. She has created a series of illustrations titled Rumors I've Heard About Anna Wintour, and it's pretty damn hilarious if I do say so myself.
