10 YEARS?!? Holy fuck, Lost has been on longer than my kid has been on this planet.

Is it a remake of the Little Mermaid the movie or the story? Because the Little Mermaid totally took all the damned pathos out of the original story and ruined it. I was 18 at the time it was released so as a member of team old, I harumphed when it came out.

If they do not cast David Giutoli as Prince Eric, I may have to boycott this film. He literally IS Prince Eric, it's like they grew him in a lab

At some point it'd be really neat if Sophia Coppola decided to make a movie that wasn't all about how tough it is to be a princess.

Liam Neeson for Poseidon/King Triton, because: reasons.*

Gah, I misunderstood this tweet, performers actually don't get paid, with the exception of compensation for any expenses. They get 'paid' in exposure and publicity, how generous of the NFL.

I heard a story about Bruno Mars performing, and the person being interviewed said that he wasn't paid, nor was Madonna, etc. That the publicity and record sales from the Super Bowl is way more compensation. I don't know how far back this goes, but I guess it's true.

Correct. Halftime performers are not paid, ever. The NFL treats it as a "promotional" opportunity for artists, which is the level of reasoning used by the local corner restaurant for not paying the jazz combo that plays on Monday nights.

Their 'payment' is usually a donation to the charity of their choice, I believe.

Clearly the NFL, as a non-profit organization, has been hurting for money for some time. Unless people start watching this Super Bowl (?) then who knows how long the NFL will be around.

Wasn't this shit like 3+ years ago? Is the NFL hurting that bad for negative press that they drum up something that I'm guessing 90% of the population has forgotten?

Yeah, we can't have some woman going around ruining the spotless reputation of the NFL!

I'm still stuck laughing on the part where M.I.A. didn't get paid, "AS IS THE NFL CUSTOM."

How about we collectively tell this tax-free billion dollar organization to go fuck itself?

Excuse me, but restitution for WHAT? The ad money they weren't going to be getting anyway because there was a PERFORMANCE going on? I feel like I have to be missing something....

Yeah, what a bunch of jerks. Don't they know capital can take whatever it wants without attribution or compensation?

Why?

I am a mama, and proud to be one. It's the best thing I've ever done in my life.

I love everything about this comment. Were there also corn dogs?

I had a peach colored wedding dress so the beer I probably spilled on it went unnoticed
