Well i think that complaint was legit - originally there was a lot more shark planned in the movie but budgeting (and issues with the animatronic shark) forced Spielberg to change to a less-is-more approach that ended up working for the movie. It’s possible that the lack of budgeting was systemic and affected other…

I love Fury Road, but I’ve noticed Furiosa’s release was a way for many, many friends and relatives to “admit” they didn’t “get” or enjoy Fury Road. I don’t recall a sequel revealing that much ambivalence about the original before. Maybe Fury Road was more polarizing than people realize.

Brandi Carlile’s outfit is... something. 

Maybe he’s just really method about his approach to southern characters

Great obit, but I must say Steve Albini would fucking HATE this line:

Here are the top 25 movies made by women about their husbands films that feature songs by Blur

you know, music is my radar.

It reads like everything Nicolas Winding Refn did, post-Drive.

Im in the minority that thinks the Sopranos gets _worse_ with age.

I love how this article links a paywall’d Vulture post.

I always thought it was Mr. Body (one d)

This. If Zoolander 2 had to flop for him to make Severance and Escape at Dannemora then we’re all the better that it did. 

I’m no fan of Cohen, and I’m biased to believe women in these situations, but there’s just something _off_ to me about Rebel’s accusations here. Perhaps I’m being pushed this direction by the press, but usually when someone makes these kind of accusations, other people step forward. Has that happened here? Didn’t she…
