Voice Actors Who Look Like Their Characters

By Jennifer Lewis on

Every now and then, a voice actor will bear an absurd resemblance to the cartoon character he or she plays. Although we’re aware that the characters at hand were likely animated with the voice actors’ features in mind, we still enjoyed discovering how much Snow White looks like the woman who provides her voice, Adriana Caselotti, and how much Up’s Carl Fredricksen looks like Ed Asner with glasses. After the jump, we’ve placed a collection of famous cartoon characters side by side with their voice actor twins. Check ‘em out, and hit the comments to add any other character and actor combinations that you’ve found to be similarly fascinating. … Read More

Awesome Movie-Inspired Nail Art

By Emily Temple on

Okay, okay, so we’ve gotten a little bit obsessed with the whole pop-culture nail art trend in the past few weeks.

Though the fangirl nail artists out there seem to prefer comedies and animated flicks to interpreting Casablanca on their digits, we still think some of these manis are destined to be classics. Take the big screen to the tiny screen (that’s right, your pinky finger) with some of our favorite film-inspired nail art after the jump. … Read More

Wanted: Pop Culture-Inspired Eye Makeup

By Caroline Stanley on

From where we’re sitting, Katie Alvie’s incredibly detailed eye shadow homages to films like Nightmare Before Christmas, Alice in Wonderland, Aladdin, and The Lion King rank right up there with that Twin Peaks manicure that we showed you last week — granted, the former makes it kind of impossible to open your eyes. Do you think it would be too much to wear them both at the same time? Click through to check out Alvie’s designs, and visit her profile on deviantART for more crazy makeup ideas. … Read More

What's On at Flavorpill: The Links That Made the Rounds in Our Office

By Caroline Stanley on

Today at Flavorpill, we had a hard time deciding which one of Woody Allen’s many muses is our favorite — but it’s probably a toss up between Mia Farrow and Diane Keaton. We discovered ShelfLuv, a new website that allows you to manage a virtual reading list of your favorite titles… Read More
