My thoughts exactly. The strength of the movie is the character interactions? Gee I wonder whose work that is.

Yup. Anyone who relies on that many silencing and distracting techniques in their statement has something to hide. The terrible thing is, I bet it’s worked for him before.

I think to me, it comes down to the fact that if they didn’t think her hair was appropriate for the picture, for whatever reason, they could have found a way to tie it back or keep it out of sight so that they’d get the look they were going for. Models and actresses get asked to dress a lot more strangely for photo…

Oh my god that’s adorable.

To be honest, it doesn’t look like nebulae as much as it looks like well-lit tissue in water or some other liquid.

That’s what got me too, especially considering that clip of the 90's interview that was circulating not long ago where he explains this epiphany regarding his assumptions about women’s looks and his dismissiveness towards women who in his opinion “weren’t trying hard enough” after the Tootsie makeup team couldn’t…

I got really excited over the Ms. Frizzle costume until I realized who was wearing it.

“I thought I was the only one.”

I was waiting for this post. <3
