Crazy to think the only screen adaptation of the ride that people will like is the Muppet one.

Why didn't this release in October?

I’m so confused about runtimes. Budgets and profitability are such a sticking point in the current strike — so why do studios turn out 2+ hour kids/family movies? A tight 90 min has got to be cheaper to produce (maybe not by 25% but certainly by 10-15%); plus, people want shorter films. Everyone complains about film

It’s the least candy-ass thing he’s ever done.

So, like, what are those photos? It looks like somebody caught a wild group of LARPers in a field somewhere.

I wonder how this would affect landfill? Most of Streeterville - the wealthy neighborhood north of the river and east of Michigan Ave - is on land that is less than 200 years old. That includes Northwestern Memorial Hospital and Medical School, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the John Hancock Building. More than

Even before the SAG strike, there were talks of pushing the Emmys back to January since so many actors are in solidarity with the writers.

“The endgame is to allow things to drag on until union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses,”

I thought with the Writer’s Guild at least, they were encouraged to promote their stuff, to sort of remind audiences “hey, we have this show you like, but we can’t get back to it until this is resolved”

How dare these people demand living wages! Won’t anyone think of the poor shareholders?

“learn to live in the world after 53 years in prison,”

This kind of guy doesn’t want a partner who conforms to his desires, he specifically wants someone who doesn’t so he can take her down a peg and exert control by making increasingly strict

Speaking as someone who is currently in school to become a licensed therapist and who spent two years as a phone advocate at the National Domestic Violence Hotline, I’ve been learning to pay special attention to how my clients are receiving what we go through in counseling sessions. Working at the Hotline taught me a

“You refuse to let go of some [photos] and you’ve made that clear. I hope they make you happy.”

Oh ffs. This is just some gibberish re-wording of exactly the problem. He was not setting HIS “boundaries.” 

I think what makes it manipulative is that he started a relationship with someone who was a professional surfer, who’s social media history and presence including oodles of this content that he wanted her to get rid of, and he appears to have not mentioned that beforehand only bringing up during the relationship. If

Dudes love that shit. “I love your free spirit”. Then the woman exhibits said free-spirited behavior.  “But not like that.”

Because what’s at the root of all of this is men still thinking their happiness, completeness, satisfaction, and kindness rests in the hands of everyone else, mainly women, BUT them.
