Harry Potter and the Deathly Enemy Mine Hallows Pt. 2

I know the "face to face" design has been done on posters before, but what makes this remarkable is that Jeriba looks like Voldemort with a severe case of acne. What makes it extra special is that (SPOILER ALERT) Harry Potter raises Voldemort's son at the end of this film.

Alicia Keys Grew Up in Hell's Kitchen

While watching the NCAA tournament today, I saw this commercial for the first time:


It starts off with a classic Keys misdirection:
"I grew up in Hell's Kitchen. In one direction there was violence and crime (symbolized by ominous shadows closing in on a hopscotch court) and in the other: THE BRIGHT LIGHTS OF BROADWAY!"

Keys chose the latter and went on to create the song "Empire State of Mind". However, what would really kill her, worse than the violence and crime in Hell's Kitchen, is if you didn't hear the song EXACTLY how she intended it. Thankfully, the masterminds at Hewlett Packard have righted this once irreversible wrong much like Dr. Sam Beckett.

While murder, assaults, drug dealing and crime will continue in Hell's Kitchen, its residents now have an opportunity to hear Alicia at her purest. HP will make the song feel brand new and Alicia Keys will inspire you.
