Fresh Take: Scary Potter
Scary Potter Series by Dylan Pierpont
Concept artist Dylan Pierpont imagines an even darker version of the Harry Potter saga you know and love. His illustrations evoke the spine-chilling spirit of Alfonso Cuarón's Prisoner of Azkaban.
"A while back I was thinking about a few of the stories and characters that had a big influence on me growing up. And while Harry Potter was by far and away the most age appropriate of the group, I couldn't help but remember how dark some of the themes became over the course of the series. So this project is test to push those ideas to the forefront and see what we come up with... #ScaryPotter style!"
Link Round-Up: BioShock Anniversary
BioShock film could have been made today, director says
"Verbinski said his team was eight weeks into working on the film, which is based on Irrational Games’ dystopian first person shooter of the same name, when the studio pulled the plug on the project. Verbinski said the studio wanted to give the film a more accessible rating (like a PG-13), and he didn’t want to make the movie if it wasn’t going to be rated R."BioShock is Still Great, 10 Years Later. Here's Why.
“The game holds up reasonably well today, played especially with an eye for its immersive sim DNA and less as a straight shooter. It's especially fun to hack machines and make them do the work, or let your wacky environmental powers wreak havoc on the ecosystem—bait splicers out to a shallow pool and electrocute them, or enrage a big daddy and lure them into a circle of death. It's nowhere near as deep an immersive sim as its cousins in the Dishonored or Deus Ex series, but those elements are still fun to play with, and add needed variety to subsequent playthroughs. I still enjoy its grand, theatrical style—Sander Cohen descending the staircase at Fort Frolic, the pivotal "A Man Obeys" scene, and the statues and banners and signage about the world that are the opposite of subtle, but they sure make their mark. This is a grand, jazz-hands flailing vision, and where it can be accused of being corny, it was never ashamed to go all the way.”

Humor: Tales from Ikea
I used to have anxiety dreams about surprise math tests. After one faithful afternoon, I now dream about getting from the center of an Ikea to the bathrooms in a sudden hurry. I'm glad I'm not alone the experience. I swear, one day I'm going to meet David Bowie in one of these places.
