Especially the ones that wait outside celebrities' kids' schools in hopes that their parents will pick them up.

I technically knew this sort of thing happened, but definitely not to this extent - calling the paparazzi on yourself is always talked about as something only a D-list celebrity would do. The product placement stuff doesn't surprise me, considering the number of celebrities willing to gush about scammy laxative tea on…

He was excellent in that. I saw it recently for the first time and was surprised by how good he is, since his name is a bit of a punchline now.

She was wonderful in Stoker!

Stupid sexy pope!!!!!!!

I thought this said find a statue of Notorious B.I.G., like it had fallen into the ocean 100 years ago or been buried in an unmarked tomb … but I guess this is fun too…

Maybe, but looking at IMDb I don't think her career and roles took a particular shift one way or the other because of her work with him. I guess she did start to become more mainstream shortly after his films?

Very thoughtfully written essay! I adore Gerwig and Frances Ha was one of my favourite movies I saw in 2014 (I saw it a bit late). I'm glad you singled out the scene in Mistress America where she goes from remembering the teasing to denying it ever happened (even to herself) in the space of about a minute - hilarious…

I don't know if he did it or not but that's one heck of a non-denial.

I get what you're saying, but I really don't think it particularly applies to a case where victims of domestic abuse are hurt by a picture posted on the city bus. There's a vast difference between getting upset about a happy video like you described because you're in a bad place, and getting upset because you're being…

Sure, but putting a picture of a woman getting choked by a giant dude is always going to have certain connotations out of that particular context. It doesn't really matter who the characters are.

Seeing it in its context in the film is probably different. Seeing it on the side of a bus, removed from the scene, can be unsettling.

I'm so excited!! The headline made me bolt upright in my seat. I love
the sound of the plot (what little we know) but it could have been
almost anything.

LGBT people face oppression. There is no anti-conservative oppression, and, frankly, anyone who would oppose a change like this because of their "conservative values" should be mocked. We don't have to be tolerant of intolerance.

I'm seriously confused about how that thing could cost $15,000 to make. I know it's a lot of pieces but LEGO isn't THAT expensive.

I think it's partially because they at least swept his hair to the side and made it look a bit thinner - Daniel Radcliffe's hair they just made vaguely more "daddish" and they didn't do anything to Emma Watson's. I think it would have been better to change their hair more noticeably and not even bothered with the…

Appropriate that this was posted on the same day as the video about aging special effects, because the aging in the first pic up there is still some of the most mind-bogglingly bad work I've ever seen, especially for a movie made in 2011. They've barely done anything to them and yet it screams fake.

I had such a weird moment watching Ant-Man where for a split second I thought they must have filmed the prologue years ago, before I realized that was ridiculous. He looked SO young, and not just randomly "youthified" - he looked like young Michael Douglas stepping directly out of the past.

Brando's make-up for The Godfather is so good. I always forget how young he is in that. Technically he was playing only a few years older than he actually was (Vito is 54), but all the same, the make-up, the voice, everything - he feels much older, and it's strange to see him out of make-up at the time (http://i.imgur.…

It's always cool to see a pre-Code film and its Code-era remake and spot the differences. And also cool to see rarely seen forgotten films get featured in these things! I'm not sure I'd heard of either of these.
