She then brought up Lisa’s husband again, and Lisa broke a wine glass and threw it at her. It is truly unbelievable to me that these same ladies, not 24 hours later, felt it would be too inappropriate to consume space cake on camera.

This is a tough one, because from the sound of it, while the officer would be justified in shooting LaGrier for his actions (a baseball bat is a deadly object, i.e. it can kill or inflict grevious bodily harm, and there really are no other options other than to shoot if the person has already hurt someone with it or

I attempted to watch “50 Shades” a few weeks back on HBO. I kept turning to my wife and asking her in disbelief “Have you ever seen a something where there is obviously so little chemistry between the leads? It’s like they’re in two different movies!”

Stacey Dash has a history of victim-blaming. Good for her for reporting the harassment, but I hope this experience will make her more empathetic to other victims of assault and harassment.

I would totally trade the Adele album for a new Kesha album. Sony should understand, though, that I am the only person who feels that way.

Money can't buy you class, Martha.

he’ll piss all over it to make it “his.”

He has the look of a lost Ramone.

I am a middle aged (sigh) white dude, and I felt exactly the same way about it. Well, maybe not the included part. But I did love it. It is honestly just so fucking cool to have a no apologies, no bullshit female protagonist. None of this “Oh, but it’s *really* Furiosa’s story, we just had to call it Mad Max” crap.

“I’m not the delinquent parent you’re looking for...”

“There was, of course, always Princess Leia; tough and able to fend for herself, she was hardly a damsel in distress, but she was ultimately a passive player subject to the larger forces that defined the Star Wars universe.”

It also helps that she is just so damn good in the film. Daisy Ridley pulls off the typical Star Wars angsty struggle with the Force without coming off as whiny, something never accomplished in the prequels.

That would put his ‘Old Ben’ hermit-act on Tatooine in new light-he’s just avoiding paying child support!

“ That Leia was capable of wielding the elusive but powerful “Force,” yet never did (at least in the films), was a defining aspect of her character.”

I didn’t think having a lady-lead would make that much of a difference to me (I didn’t think I’d feel so included) but it legitimately did in the best way possible.

What I want to know is how Chewie has escaped the drudges of aging.
