Good-bye to Arcade Bakery, a Perfect New York Place
closings 10:25 A.M. By Alan Sytsma@alansytsma The final day of this unique bakery is August 2. Photo: Jed Egan You have to start with the incredible smell, a mix of warm butter, gently toasted grain, maybe some vanilla and sugar to soften it just a bit. It’s a combination that can put anyone immediately at ease; it makes you feel like somebody cares.

9 Posters That Prove Rogue One’s K-2SO Is a Star
In Rogue One, a chaotic movie set in a chaotic universe and released in chaotic times, there is one lighthouse in the storm, projecting chill vibes and cracking sick burns — the reprogrammed Imperial droid K-2SO. Voiced by Alan Tudyk, K-2S0 is part C-3PO, part TARS from Interstellar, part Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy. And like the latter two, his performance should catch the eye of casting directors everywhere, because K-2SO should be in everything. Every TV show. Every movie.
How Tall Are the New Movie Heartthrobs?
If you walked up to new Star Wars leading men John Boyega and Oscar Isaac at a bustling cantina, would they tower over you? Are Marvel mainstays like Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt, and Tom Hiddleston really as tall as they seem, or is it all just a cinematic trick? And what about all those YA hunks like Theo James and Ansel Elgort: What height is the right height for wooing Shailene Woodley?
You Should Dress like the Star Wars: The Force Awakens Poster for Halloween
Star Wars: The Force Awakens is going to be massive. So massive that the release of just its official poster felt like the release of a blockbuster movie, with everyone flooding the internet needing to discuss and dissect. Like any good Hollywood blockbuster — and like any good Pizza Rat — it deserves a Halloween costume to call its own. Well, Vulture is here to help! Here is Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the Costume: What’s that? You want to see it in action?
The New Spider-Man Will Be a ‘John Hughes Movie' -- Vulture
If The Avengers was a sports movie, and The Winter Soldier was a '70s conspiracy film, then what will the new Spider-Man be? According to Marvel's Kevin Feige, the answer is: a John Hughes movie. "It’s the soap opera in high school, and those supporting characters that are interesting," Feige told reporters at the Ant-Man junket this weekend. "We haven’t seen a John Hughes[–style] movie in a long time ...
The True Height of
The Fast and Furious franchise is full of incredible special effects, but none are more impressive, or more subtle, than the series' efforts to make all of its leading actors appear exactly the same height. Take the scene in Fast Five where Dom Toretto squares off against Luke Hobbs: The two men can look each other right in the eye, even though, in real life, the Rock has a good six inches on Vin Diesel.
What Lady Gaga’s
When we heard yesterday's big news about Lady Gaga starring in next season's American Horror Story — and it being deemed American Horror Story: Hotel — we couldn't help but start imagining what this Gaga Inn might look like. Would it be closer to a horrendous Holiday Inn, or a frightening Four Seasons? Would there be revolting room service? Which Gagas would be your bloodcurdling bellhops, and which would serve as your creepy concierge?
If Empire Met Empire Records
We're not the first and surely not the last to make the connection between Empire, Fox's soapy drama about the record industry, and Empire Records, the 1995 cult classic about a bunch of 20-somethings working at a record store. Get it? They are both Empire Records. And because Empire Records could've used a little more Taraji P. Henson, we made some changes to the film's iconic poster for you: Photo: FOXWarner Bros.Getty ImagesShutterstock

What Might an All-Female Ghostbusters Look Like?
Details are still scant, but that doesn't mean we can't already start dreaming about what an "all-female Ghostbusters" might actually look like. Who would our dream cast be? Who could we see strapping on those Proton packs and stepping up to the plate? Because we tend to take things as far as we possibly can, we've put together a few mock-ups of some Ghostbusters dream casting for you to properly judge with. Who would you want to call? Why change a perfectly good thing? We all loved Bridesmaids.
Here’s What 12 Amazing Women Would Look Like on the $20 Bill
President Obama said today that we should probably think about putting some women on our money. A young girl recently wrote him a letter suggesting as much, “and then she gave me like a long list of possible women to put on our dollar bills and quarters and stuff, which I thought was a pretty good idea,” he said.

Hollywood Female Stars, Arranged by Height -- Vulture
Last month, with a new movie from the diminutive Kevin Hart in theaters, we cooked up a graphic comparing the heights of Hollywood’s leading men … and now, it’s the women’s turn.
Hollywood Leading Men, Arranged by Height -- Vulture
With three hit films this year under his belt, Kevin Hart is now firmly established as a major Hollywood star … and he's a quietly groundbreaking one, to boot. Standing at just five foot two, Hart is at the low end of Hollywood A-listers when it comes to height, as you'll see in the Vulture graphic below, which charts the size of contemporary leading men.
Play Vulture’s Game of Thrones ‘Guess Who?’
Guess Who? combines deduction with description. Game of Thrones combines Wait, who is that guy again? with violence and a misanthropic worldview. We love them both, and maybe you do too. And if Monopoly can franchise itself to various cities, sports teams, movies, historical eras, and TV shows, why not other childhood board games?
Quiz: Can You Guess the Wes Anderson Film From Just a Prop?
Following Wes Anderson's debut feature, Bottle Rocket, the production design on his films kicked into overdrive. From Rushmore to The Royal Tenenbaums to The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou to The Darjeeling Limited to Fantastic Mr. Fox to Moonrise Kingdom, each film has been more and more crammed with costumes, sets, and props of specific colors, patterns, and designs.
