She probably knows the words. It seems as if she expected to lip-synch, and she didn’t hear the lip-synch track in her monitor. And instead of just singing it — and risking sounding bad — she didn’t even try.

BTW, John Lennon sometimes would forget the words to his own songs. So that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The…

I worked retail during the R. Kelly’s Space Jam “I Believe I Can Fly” holiday season.

I name thee ... brother.

She wasn’t gonna ‘sing’ any songs

I used to work retail. They played “Emotions” over and over. This song deserves this death in public.

They played the wrong accompaniment. She was expecting to lip sync the whole thing but on “Emotions” they played a backing track that was for semi-lip-sync situations, in which she sings most of the song but lip syncs the high notes. She was not about to attempt actually singing that song.

Was her monitor off? It aeemed like her dancers could hear the music but Mariah was lost on the first number. The lip syncing on the second piece was very comical.

I haven’t seen the movie but the explanation I read somewhere was it’s all for the passengers to hang out in before they can disembark on the planet. It still doesn’t make much sense because wouldn’t you want to use that space/resources for stuff your going to need when you get there.

The original Sleeping Beauty in space would’ve been a more “interesting” (and horrifying) story - she’s impregnated while in her pod and labour forces the pod to wake her... Although then rape is a plot device... but if it’s a well done archetypal fairy tale retelling that isn’t remotely gratuitous, I could get on…

Snorted out loud - thanks for improving my morning.

But if you’re still jonesing for Resting JLaw Acting Face, create your own homebrew version by standing in front of a mirror and trying to remember the last eleven places you put your car keys.

they probably will wake up a few months before arriving, to get muscle mass etc back.

Wait also, why does the ship have all these fancy amenities if the passengers are in hibernation the entire time? Do they have bartenders and restaurants and entertainment just in the off-chance an idiot wakes up too soon? Wouldn’t the passengers just wake up when they get to the planet? Jesus, the mystery of this…

She got paid almost double what Pratt got paid ($20 million to his $12) and she gets a percentage of the profits, so I imagine that have something to do with it.

They lost me at “Aurora.” You just know that whichever draft that first appeared in, the following script doctor’s immediate reaction was, “Too obvious” only to be countered by some studio lackey chirping, “Sleeping beauty — brilliant!”

Thanks Bobby, I am more than happy not to see Passengers.

Bobby Finger sleepy. Bobby Finger power down.

How dare you insinuate I am not a real person! Bobby Finger real. Bobby Finger actual human man. Do not doubt Bobby Finger.

Hyder told me one of his better characters was still active, and getting published (a male character, as it happens). I asked him to tell me where. He politely refused.

looking cheap is part of her asethitic for some reason
