Codemasters to ‘Double-Down’ on Racing From Now On
Veteran UK-based studio Codemasters has shut down its small, Malta-based team and has made clear its plan to focus purely on the racing genre from this point on.
“While it’s been great to explore projects outside of racing, we know that our hearts belong to racing in all its many glorious forms,” a Codemasters spokesperson told Eurogamer. “The success of Dirt Rally’s Early Access programme has been incredible, F1 2015 was very successful reaching number one in many territories, we’ve recently announced that Micro Machines will come to mobile and we have a strong road map ahead of us that keeps racing as its razor focus.”

Momentum Makes Just £46 at UK Box Office
In the wake of overwhelmingly negative reviews, Momentum flopped hard in the UK, making a mere £46 ($69 USD) during its opening weekend.
The Stephen Campanelli-directed heist film, starring both Morgan Freeman and Quantum of Solace star Olga Kurylenko, had a budget of £20 million and opened across just handful of British theaters. According to The Telegraph, two of the 10 cinemas that screened the movie didn't sell a single ticket.
Momentum is the first film from Campanelli, with Freeman starring in the project as a favor to the new director. Campanelli previously worked with Clint Eastwood as a camera operator on several movies, including Gran Torino and Mystic River.

Will Smith on Why I Am Legend Is His Most Successful Role
Will Smith is most proud of his work in I Am Legend, he told the Awards Chatter podcast.
Smith places his movies in two categories—"popcorn" and "gourmet popcorn." I Am Legend, he says, is gourmet popcorn.
I Am Legend is the kind of movie that Smith himself enjoys watching—"a small character-drama." In the film, Smith plays an army virologist who ends up as one of the last humans in New York City. With his dog Sam, Smith's character—Robert Neville—tries to find a cure for the virus that made it all happen, all while fighting off loads of mutant vampire-zombies.
A Black and White Image That Can Make You See Color
They say seeing is believing and a short video, featured in the BBC Four series: Colour: The Spectrum of Science, helps to support that adage.
Check out the video below to see how a black and white image of Dunstanburgh Castle can turn into color:
Pretty cool, right? Here's how it works courtesy of IFLScience. Our cone cells, a type of photoreceptor within our eye's retina, are responsible for color vision. The cone cells are sensitive to blue, red, or green wavelengths of light. If we're exposed to a lot of one of these colors, the cone in our eye sensitive to that color becomes overstimulated and unresponsive.
