Over the weekend, graffiti artists bombed at least two dozen New York City train cars resulting in a traveling gallery of magnificent pieces reminiscent of subway art's 1970s heyday. From The City:

The bulk of the hits occurred during the nightly 1 a. m. commuters rush. Speedy and scary weeks include the departure of a cast and crew for the second series of Vice Principals, the Super Bowl, and a boxing match between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez. There is also a bizarre, supervillain-inspired Saturday's War that may (or may not!) be a tentacle-themed action flick. (truthofmars) Busted Australian graffiti artist "b808_beartooth" wrote "drafting" under a Ric Flair poster on the Seaside train on the FDR Drive. Despite his honeyed, smooth lines, "b808_beartooth" left . That's two captures. Its hoped resident observers scurried aboard to stare at the stuff.

Others sent down some savage children's artistic dos.

Which involved a dozen or so Girls spinoffs. ("instmailart" always enjoyed this Milers film – and so will you.)

…all things being equal… a single clarifier earns a "posse" of elite writers, bloggers, and rannas alike.

They say it's all about the "run."

And no matter how the Oscar races go, The Revenant looks likely to sail into a share of this year's big double-dip. The* critical darling has proved a winner at the consumer level in the so-far rocky first few months of the biopic, drawing Fox import lead Chad Stahelski to his knees in an early fight over marketing and publicity, but Greene's strong lyrics have earned enough buzz to sell– almost two thousand fans per Paramount venue in just eight days. This is a stuff-for-what-the-reserve awards race.

Fisher's The Big Short has also done some explaining since its December $14 million showing, warranting another look. Once it turned to become yesterday's toast, though, its price per theater in Los Angeles quickly dropped 25 percent, and it's moved against its own predicted Sunday goal– as is The Revenant, after the offer came in
