COSBY WANTS DONALD TRUMP TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT OR SHUT UP

This is what makes TV journalists so great; their lack of respect for their guests' personal opinion on a fluff piece such as The Donald's position on running for president.

Cosby gets some nice shots at Trump's lack of relevance in the 2012 presidential race. Bill has still got those comedic chops on point. It's also worth noting Trump was interviewed by his own station (Celebrity Apprentice airs on NBC). So you can sense the boundaries and affiliations the Today Show's host had to tip toe. Win for Dr Huxtable. Via: @buzzfeed

JARED LETO IS KURT COBAIN

I still can't believe it's been 17 years (and a couple days) since Kurt Cobain's death. Nirvana were at their peak in the public's eye; they definitely were my favorite at the time.

If anyone were to play the Nirvana legend in a movie, Jared Leto has made the perfect case with his doppelganger rendition of "Pennroyal Tea" in remembrance of the Nineties most iconic musician.  It doesn't hurt that Jared's also in a band (30 Seconds to Mars), giving him the perfect training to conquer a role as huge as Kurt. Consider this Jared's audition tape, if you will. Via @MaxWinkleman

LESSONS IN SIMPLICITY: PICTOGRAM MOVIE POSTERS

It's not just the execution, but the simplicity of the idea that creates the greatest impact. Swedish designer Victor Hertz's series of Pictogram movie posters proves that putting a new spin on something old can generate pretty fresh results. 

As Picasso said, "Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing." Victor demonstrates that point quite well—and in what could very well end up being an endless amount of executions. Via Fubiz


The entire poster series (26 and counting) is available to view and purchase here
