Do you feel similarly about bulletproof vests?

I don’t think anybody ever claimed that getting vaccinated would mean you couldn’t catch or spread COVID, just that it reduced the likelihood dramatically, which is still true. I don’t think any experts have ever said straight up that cloth masks don’t work, just that they’re not as effective as N95's, which is still…

I’m sure a certain NFT loving Joe Rogan fanboy will be swarming the comments whining about how important it is to have some ex MMA fighter advocate injecting horse medicine as a cure for COVID is somehow a valid point of view...

You aren’t wrong. C19 like the flu, mutates relatively quickly and as such will not be widely eliminated like some very stable diseases (smallpox for example.) Like the flu vaccine, we’ll likely get a yearly C19 vaccine tailored to each year’s predicted most likely dominant strains. An omicron specific variant of the…

Give it up, man, Pulp’s not gonna sleep with common people like you.

This was par for the course in the Britpop days. Albarn’s bandmate Dave Rowntree has said they figured out early on that the easiest way to get in the music press was to say something awful about their peers. This trick certainly hasn’t worn off (see: West, Kanye), but as others have said, Swift might not have been…

“most of the songs in her catalog do not feature co-writers.”

This is very obviously false. The vast majority of her published songs are co-written.

It is a nothing story but then it’s like why did she even respond? She seems so bitter and insecure to feel the need to clap back at...Damon Albarn. Has she not sold millions of more albums than him and is infinitely more well-known? I guess money truly doesn’t buy happiness and contentment.

Ulliel was born in the suburbs of France

Cool story, but how about reporting on G/O Management squeezing out seven of your staff?

Maybe Alexandra Daddario is available?  We can hope.

They definitely feel like movies George and Jerry would go see on Seinfeld but not as exciting as Chunnel.

Great write-up. I wish I liked Johnson more but he’s one-note in a way that a lot of directors don’t seem to know how to use, like the late 90s early 00s Arnold films. Unfortunately he’s also never had a string of stone-cold classics like Arnold did, and his most iconic role in the Fast franchise has him as a…

I was surprised how much I, well, fucking hated “A Little Life” since the reviews were so good. The commenter who called it “disgusting misery porn” is dead on. Oh, really, *every single* adult this guy met from infancy to young adulthood was an abuser/rapist? Literally every long-haul trucker he ever ran into wanted…

The guy co-developing the series released a trailer he shot himself a few years back for the idea and it got a lot of positive feedback. Dunno if this will be good but there was plenty of interest and kind of cool that someone got a show launched by creating a trailer themselves and getting it noticed by Will Smith…

I can’t believe i’m saying this...but...i am intrigued by this so far. I’m glad to see that instead of a simple-”here’s the same show with all new people” they took the same story and reinvented it. Will it work? I’m still not convinced. At least now i’m interested...

I’d say I don’t want to be that guy, but in this case I do... Seriously, a trans actor of colour wins a TV Best Actress award and you relegate a mention of it to parentheses? This is such wonderful news. MJ was always the heart of Pose. Great to see her recognised. Her picture should be in the header image.

Polly Platt wasn’t just responsible for much of the success of Bogdanovich’s early films, she’s one of the most important production designers in Hollywood history. Along with a handful of others in the late ‘60s, early ‘70s (Richard Sylbert, Dean Tavoularis, Mike Haller, a few others), she helped perform a total…
