Ugh, I like all the actors involved, but they had to put Shailene Woodley in it too. I know she's young, but ever since those comments about feminism, I just shake my head whenever I hear her name.

Gus Van Sant and witches? That's a surprising combination. What will these witches do? Fly on their brooms filmed in hazy, melancholy shots and have muted existential crises? Or discover some inner talents and go conquer the world?

The lesson I took is that Lee Daniels is a shit director.

Yeah, well, they're not black, overweight women. Maybe we should wait for more details before branding her a liar.

I just want to say I do love how every Shondaland show has an obsession with a different kind of alcohol: vodka for HTGAWM, wine for Scandal, tequila for Grey's. I enjoy these shows to varying degrees, but I do love that all the women in them are shameless boozers. I'm a red wine kind of gal, so Olivia Pope is a woman

I thought Connor was giddy with delight at that confession. But my shipping goggles might cloud my reading of that scene.

Actually, this episode was the first one I liked Michaela in, and I thought I would hate her forever for that disgusting thing she did to her boyfriend. And all should go to shit, considering these are horrible people and they don't deserve to root for them to escape unpunished.

It's weird how I find Matt McGorry very attractive on Orange is the New Black, even though his character is not the greatest guy, but he totally repulses me in HTGAWM, even though he's hilarious. Attraction works in mysterious ways.

Sweet Jesus, that's fucking morbid.

Even In Treatment is better, seeing it's a tv series.

And one inevitably mows the lawn of the other.

You can give all the fucks you want here on the Av Club. They're shy about the word c*nt for some reason, though.

It's kind of odd that we regard desexualizing teenagers as a laudable thing It's not fucking odd at all. I'd say it's one of the best things that humanity did these past decades, and a natural progression of our society, considering that for most of our history there used to be this horrendous practice of marrying

There's a creepy undercurrent to this whole affair. I guess one could call it professionalism, but I can't help but think there's something deeply dehumanizing to this process, they're basically treated like cattle. Which shouldn't surprise me, but I find it deeply disturbing and just sad.

Under the Skin is so out there, that the Academy cannot grasp the achievement in cinema it is. It's too unconventional and avant-garde, it didn't stand a chance to be nominated for anything (not even Best Actress for Scarlett Johansson) in these celebrations of mediocrity. It's not a crowd pleaser like Whiplash and

If there's a movie that's love it or hate it, it's Upstream Color. I love it to bits, one of the best of the decade for me, but if you weren't enthralled by it the first time, there's no point watching it again.

I haven't seen Mr. Turner, but I can hardly wait to. It's a Mike Leigh film and that thing alone puts it miles ahead of those two biopics. Even at their worst, Mike Leigh's movies have more to say and are plain better than the majority of films released the same year.

I see he took a page from Ben Affleck's guide to revitalizing one's career. I'm mildly excited.

Say what you will about these nutters, but the expression ''libtard Hollyweirdos'' has a certain poetry to it. I just love how it sounds.

He ignores Sif for Loki, is more like it. There's a reason Tumblr went nuts and China used that fake promotional poster. There's absolutely no chemistry whatsoever between Portman and Hemsworth. The bromance sells those movies.
