I saw an advance screener of this movie with a bunch of ultra super fans.  It is the only way to make the film tolerable, to enjoy how the Twihards FLIP OUT as Carlisle, Jasper, Dakota Fanning, Michael Sheen, kid from X-Men 3, and a bunch of totally homogenous wolves who apparently correspond to beloved characters get

I don't have a problem with Max winning the election - because the kids want vending machines or they hate his opponent, or whatever the reason.  But his speech struck me as extremely false.  It was so perfectly crafted, articulate, and showed a mature understanding not only of Asberger's but how to explain it to

Oh my gosh yes!  I know I should save my hatred for things like sex slavery and genocide, not bratty child actors, but I HATE Sydney, and finding out that she has an equally obnoxious sister who will also be imposed upon my retinas and eardrums is just unbearable.

Ha! Yes!  That photo was insane.  My favorite part was that Amber was clearly morphed, Sarah and Seth had some nice de-aging done, but I'm pretty sure that poor Drew got the shaft as usual and they just put some random kid in his place.

Ugh, agreed! I was so bugged to see that in the preview.  Like every insanely hot girl they cast is just dying to hook up with scrubby Crosby or middle-aged Adam.  You know, most 20-something girls have the bare-minimum level of decency not to hit on a guy when they've just been chatting with his wife and brand new

I think the producers were deliberately trying to make Shannon look stupid, when she wasn't being that unreasonable.  Models DON'T have to shoot underwear or do nudity if they don't want to.  Some girls refuse to wear fur, or do cigarette or alcohol ads too.  Your agency knows ahead of time what you are willing to

I think the Dudez win because they actually run everywhere.  Maybe I am way over-simplifying, but it seems to me like most of the teams are strolling around most of the time.  There is a million dollars on the line people!  Sprint everywhere!

So true!  At first I wasn't planning on cheering for them because he's an NFL player, so probably well-off, and it's way more fun to cheer for people who pee their pants when they win $5000 on a leg of the race.  But he and his wife are a great couple, and they seem like quality people, especially the way they talked

Lol I know I was so confused by Angelea's talking head - I thought she was being viciously sarcastic, but then I realized she actually thought Allison was a good singer.  I guess compared to the others, sticking somewhat close to a tune sounded like Pavarotti.

Oh yeah, and the kid really is atrocious.  I want to bully him every time he's on screen.  He's not even cute, and he looks nothing like his supposed biological mother.

Yeah, I thought this was pretty terrible.  The mood, the costumes, and the dialogue is so cheesy and campy and laughable.  Devoid of any real emotion or suspense.  It seems to me that the only way to make material like this work is to make the adaptation really dark, otherwise lines like "Rumplestiltskin!" WILL always

So true!  I was worried they would be too afraid to even critique the guy properly, because it's slippery ground when a bunch of white people tell a black guy that his racism art is lame.  But I was actually impressed by the fellow who said "Just because the subject is complex doesn't mean your work is complex".  I

Lots of the girls from America's Next Top Model have gone on to work, but not a single one has become a bonafide supermodel.  Girls from my high school have done the kind of modeling jobs the average ANTM alum gets, and two chicks from my former agency in Calgary, Alberta, Canada (Mode Models) have become a lot more

I don't think Josh was jealous of Anya's win - I mean, he was, but I think he was more furious that she has been helped out time and time again, Anthony Ryan JUST gave her the entire budget to buy her last outfit after she stupidly lost all her money, and she has the gall to refuse Josh a few spare fabric scraps.

The Office is a true mockumentary, in the sense that the characters refer to "whatever this footage is going to be used for", like they really are being followed around by some random camera crew who will one day make a documentary about them.  They run and hide from the cameras, and private moments have to be shot

Yeah, it's funny, the only thing Stephan really had on Damon was that he was solid, secure, and he seemed devotedly in love with Elena.  Damon was sexy, but you could understand that Elena wouldn't want to take up with a guy who might flip out or take off the next day.  But Stephan actually deserted Elena pretty

I assumed they were trying to imply that there was one bloodline or cultural basis for the witchy powers, like all the witches were descended from voo-doo practicing African American slaves in Louisiana or something.
