There are nepo babies who are incredibly talented and most likely would have succeeded on their own. Dakota isn’t one of them. She has the energy and charisma of vanilla pudding.

I feel like the nepo baby thing only comes up when the talent is in question. For all Jamie Lee Curtis complains about the nepo baby issue (and maybe it was a thing for her around the original Halloween era, I don’t know), it’s been decades since anyone questioned the fact that she was just loaded with talent and…

“If you’re a journalist, write about something else,” `

Ha. You win this Friday!

is a boring topic? or is it instead a manifestation of broader cultural feelings regarding the ability to advance in our society?

It’s been my experience almost no one fully understands their own privilege because even the cushiest life has some challenges.

It is a boring topic. People can talk about Dakota Johnson being a terrible actor with no charisma without bringing up the nepo baby part.

Jesus Fucking Christ.

I guess I’m wondering how “abortion is bad actually and I’m opposed to it” is supposed to convince all that many people to support the pro-abortion party. 

I guess I’m not so willing to give a guy who lost every presidential primary he entered, except the one he was losing until the entire establishment panicked and rallied by him, and who is trailing fucking Donald Trump in the polls at this moment, the benefit of the doubt that he knows exactly what he’s doing here.

He’s saying he’s against abortion on-demand, he doesn’t want it. What other kind of abortion is there that he supports?

That he keeps undermining his supposed pro-choice position. What does it mean to be “pro-choice” and also “against abortion on-demand”?

There’s probably some confused moderate demographic that’s pro-choice in general but has bought into right-wing propaganda and believes “abortion on demand” means either going to the abortion drive-up window every Tuesday morning or forcibly dragging at-term babies out of mom’s hoo-ha with a Hoover.

What is the alternative to abortion on demand?  Why does he feel the need to keep letting everyone know how personally he is against abortion?

“Also, being Catholic isn’t really an excuse to hold shitty views on abortion, when many practicing Catholics do support abortion rights: In 2020, 68% of Catholic Americans said they opposed the overturning of Roe.”

Different strokes. I’m a great fan of Soderbergh, but I hated everything about Magic Mike, mostly because I think Channing Tatum is a terrible actor. I don’t even think he’s good-looking enough to be beefcake, but then I don’t go in for that pouty thing. He was perfectly cast in Hail Caesar, but I never believe him in…

It’s a small miracle she got any work at all after her other disastrous work on screen. She’s fine when she’s just running around punching and kicking people or putting them in armbars, but once she has to act—like really act by delivering lines or exhibiting emotions that her character feels... it falls apart pretty…

True fans know Hawley’s version hews closer to existing cannon, and it’s run time is <chef’s kiss>.

After getting accused of being in a movie that’s tOo WoKE! for the Daily Wire crowd, it seems like Gina decided she better try to... get recast in The Mandalorian?  

From The Hollywood Reporter:

She wasn’t fired. Her contract was up & Disney didn’t renew it. This lawsuit isn’t going anywhere, she has no case.
