Nobody but nobody makes judge-y bitchface like Blair Waldorf.

All it takes is for one relatively minor injury to your foot, or your knee or even your shoulder, and you're screwed

It's weird how sometimes terrible shit like that can bring us some much needed attention. I'm sorry you're going through such a hard time right now <3 back at you.

Bale was one of my biggest problems with the movie. Not sure if it was the way the character was written or how Bale played it, but he wasn't charismatic or charming enough to be pulling off these cons, much less to get both Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Adams to fall in love with him. And as much as I like her, Jennifer

I hope you do have a better year this year.

I thought it was a movie where you weren't supposed to root for anybody, but with the Oceans 11 - ish ending, clearly you were. But I didn't think the plot or the characters had earned that ending (well, maybe Amy Adams). And I agree about the reliance on 70s style. I wanted to sit David O. Russell down and be like

Louis CK was amazing. I thought the performances were good, but the relationships didn't always work for me.

Meh, don't worry too much about feeling like a cretin. There are always dissenting views and somewhere out there are intelligent film people who agree with you. I haven't seem Inside Llewyn Davis yet because the closest to me it's playing is nearly 4 hours away, so obviously I can't personally speak to it. But around

There are comedic moments but it's more trying to walk a dramedy line that doesn't work. The drama of the FBI set up never feels that important and the movie hinges on these relationships between the characters that didn't work for me at all. But a lot of people do like it, so you never know.

I'm usually a big fan of David O. Russell's movies, but I thought American Hustle was a huge mess. Please tell me other people were not impressed, because with the exception of the folks from the Fighting in the War Room podcast, everyone seems to be orgasming over it. I don't like being dismissive of other people's

I'm right there with you. 2013 was pretty shitty for me, and I don't have much hope that 2014 is going to turn out better. And I know I'm supposed to keep fighting and being optimistic and nothing will change for me if I don't make positive changes myself - but also, fuck that. I spent a lot of years working really

My plan for today was to clean everything in some sort of clean rooms/clean life New Year's Day good omen. Then I got felled by a killer headache and slept almost the whole day. I like your plan of making drinking part of the proceedings. I'll have to give that a shot tomorrow.

I never saw that Superman, but I completely believe that she was terrible in it.

That was my thought also. Finding an enjoyable fulfilling activity and then doing said activity makes people happy? No way!

A long time ago at the dawn of texting, my then bf and I were apart for like 2 months, and occasional sexting took place. I always found it awkward, but the awkwardness of doing it was nothing compared to when he later upgraded and gave his old cell to his younger brother, without having deleted any of the texts.

I used to work at a restaurant that had a lot of celebrity guests and it always went around how good or bad a tipper someone was. But the thing is nobody ever gave less than 20% it was just that it looked bad because you "knew" those people could afford more.

She dated Orlando Bloom when he was still A-list. Then she had a Cover Girl campaign and I think they tried to make her a things when she was in that Superman movie before this newest Superman movie.

Does anybody else live in a place where this movie isn't showing? Llewyn Davis and Her don't appear to ever be coming to a theater near me.

I think we should storm Netflix HQ and get it back :-)

This is a little silly but mine is once a week, throw myself a little dance party in my room. I'm hoping it'll help keep me current on good new music, and make me feel a little bit more cheerful about life.
