It's obvious that Miley Cyrus' thing was just a publicity stunt. Also maybe it's just me but I don't think that people watched it for the overt sexuality, it was just so bad it's good. Also, re: the Royals thing, I think that was silly. Stuff like that is why I quit going to most mainstream feminist sites like

I agree about "Blurred Lines". I took a Women's Studies class this year and the professor was ranting about how sexist it was, but in my opinion Robin Thicke just came off as not too bright, but not like he's going out saying "alright tonight I'm gonna date rape some woman".

I agree. What got me about that whole fiasco was that the woman who started it was a white woman. I'm black and it really bothers me when white people try to tell me what is racist towards black people.

This sounds really stupid. Also I doubt it will get huge ratings. Devout Christians won't watch it because it has all the demons and what not and everyone else probably won't be interested in it.

I don't necessarily feel like this is fake, if only because you rarely hear about celebrities writing out their feelings in order to sell albums. Anyway I'm kind of glad the AV Club members can be mature about this. When it was first announced that he was leaivng people were going on like he personally peed in their

The book was really weird. First the incest thing, and on top of that, IIRC, one of the characters is psychic for no explainable reason. Anyway, it will probably be completely botched. The only thing I think it has in its favor is that it would be hard to try to milk a franchise out of it, so there won't be any

This show sounds incredibly stupid, but I bet any amount of money it will run for an obscene amount of seasons, without anyone I've ever met actually watching it (like Two and a Half Men or Rules of Engagement).

Alright, I know almost all of my comments are like this, but what did Jimmy Fallon ever do to anyone? I know why people hate Jay Leno (I still think that Conan thing was blown way out of proportion, for Christ's sake it's a TV show, Jay Leno didn't steal Conan O'Brien's firstborn child, also I can't stand Conan

I know we're all legally required to hate Donald Glover, but I love his work and hope the FX show is good. I'm glad at least some people on this thread decided to be reasonable. I figured that his music wasn't the only reason he left. People are saying he could've stayed and still shot the show, but I don't think so.

I will probably miss Rashida Jones more than Rob Lowe (seeing as she's been on the show since the pilot episode). That said, I'm kind of glad that it's 2 characters that are at least related in some shape or form. They can be written out together without a whole lot of trouble. It would be much harder if, say, Aziz

I haven't seen the movie. I read the book and thought it was okay. But, and maybe it's just me, but after reading the book I honestly concluded that Charlie was autistic or developmentally delayed. How does he not know what masturbation is in high school?  Also, there was one chapter/letter/whatever where he didn't

I don't think a song can define an era, necessarily. It can be emblematic of the era, but not define it. Partly because, for whom does it define an era? Sure rock and roll defines the 60s-70s for white men, but what about everyone else? That's why I can never get into music criticism. It inevitably ends up being old

It seems like pretty much every Children's/YA series is being snapped up to be made into books. I'm pretty sure this one will bomb too. Unless they can find a way to make it stand out from the rest of the books.

I can kind of side with you here. However I don't think it warrants calling him the worst rapper ever and acting like there is no way anybody could ever understand why he would want to leave ever. We don't know his personal life so to say that he's just selfish and stupid is mean (not that you're doing any of those

I remember VH1 showing the documentary Left Eye was making right before she died. It was disturbing. I mean it literally showed her getting into the car and the footage until it cut off when she hit the other car. I wonder if they'll at least show a little bit about Left Eye.

I don't think Ryan Gosling would take a role in this movie. He seems to stay away from huge blockbusters. But he's a good actor so I wouldn't mind seeing him. However, I'm not taking any casting rumors as fact until I start seeing pictures from the set. I mean Latino Review also reported on the rumor that maybe

Yes, but he's not pushing out better rappers. While he does have a fanbase he's barely considered mainstream rap. He's only had one studio album. What other rappers is he pushing out? It's not like people who buy his albums are forbidden from buying any other artist's albums. Even if you don't like him that doesn't

I don't think that Camp is the best album ever and I like Community as much as the next AV Club member, but Jesus what did Donald Glover do to the AV Club? Everyone seems to have this huge hate-on for him. Gasp, someone actually wanting to switch careers, oh no! He should stay on a show that has been barely renewed

I never read this, but I did read other VC Andrews books,and after reading them I had to ask, what went on in her childhood? Pretty much all of her books deal with incest (or almost incest), whether it's between siblings, cousins, step-siblings etc. There has to be some serious Freudian issues that went on in her

Am I the only person who that Man of Steel wasn't that bad? Not as good as the Batman movies or The Avengers, but still pretty good. Jesus Christ, people are going on as if it's Sharknado levels of badness. Anyway, even though I liked the Superman movie, it just seems kind of weird to have just Superman and Batman in
