I know!!!! It’s amazing how many women hate Swift. I never had an opinion of her until I saw all the hate directed at her and then I started feeling the need to defend her. The girl plays instruments and writes a lot of her own music. It’s not my kind of music, but still. She’s a million times more accomplished than…

Totally agree!

I read this with an inner rage of ‘shut your whore mouth about Jaws man’. That’s one movie to just leave the f**k alone. It is Spielberg’s best and I will go to my grave loving that film.

Amen. I will go to the mat for this movie as a piece of film, and on an issue level: if more cops were like Brody (i.e. NOT deeply enchanted with themselves as heroic he-men), the world would be a better place.

You misunderstand the movie. Brody is not a cop, he’s a sheriff - an elected official. And more, he’s a real leader, concerned about the welfare of his people.

Against this social backdrop, the absurdity of the 45-year-old mother of all summer blockbusters, Jaws, has never been clearer. It is the story of a cop, with no background in marine biology and, in fact, hatred of water, taking it upon himself to hunt a great white shark, a vulnerable apex predator whose survival is…

There is a cottage industry that seeks to portray Melania as some sort of abused, kept woman, that has always baffled me. The type of person Donald Trump was was apparent when she met him, and apparent when she agreed to marry him. She not only stood along as he built his political career on a racist lie, but actively…

Why do we keep digging around the Trumps for evidence of things that are right in front of our faces? She’s the third wife of a wealthy, famous man with a history of infidelity and sexual abuse. Of course she’s a cynical, social-climbing phony.

I love Sharon Stone.
I love that she is aging gracefully and phenomenally, she looks very happy, she has done an insane amount of charity work, and seems to be living her best life.

I guess I always liked that marvel cast Tomei as aunt may, I thought maybe it would help shift the perception that moms can be sexy too(especially since the role is more related to her relation as a caregiver to Peter, and not a wife with a 75 year old husband). But if she is now stuck in these roles, and despite the…

If you push REALLY REALLY hard...  he might just stand up straight.

I get it. People are angry, but before the police stand up and tell us they are victims, look at how the nation perceives you and why. Minneapolis is not an isolated incident, and NYPD has not been innocent in this. Also, when one of your own violates the civil liberties of the public and your union vilifies everyone…

“Bill De Blasio has never been very popular with the people who voted him into power...” Yet he won his first term with 69% of the vote and his second term with 62% of the vote. Not too shabby.

“I am struggling with it. I have struggled with it for a long time,”

I can’t even with these “Christians.” If Jesus showed up, wooly-headed, skin blessed with melanin, they’d shoot the motherfucker.

Not a lawyer but I’m assuming this move is to protect financial assets and property? They have a second home in Florida, so there must be finances there that will be depleted in his defense or seized in civil suits. She’s trying to get her half before he has nothing. Or, in the least, this delays their financial…

Just because a particular author on The Root says it’s never okay doesn’t mean everyone else will agree that it’s never okay, and just because a particular author on Mediaite thinks a particular instance is okay doesn’t mean everyone else will agree it is.

Yeah, these people were doing it in the 2000s to be offensive. That kind of comedy was in. The better comedians were doing edgy stuff with a purpose to make you laugh and think about your prejudices. But most were just out to shock. It was very lazy humour. In Britain a lot of these ‘edgy’ comics are still around but…

I always think of Eddie Murphy’s “White Like Me” and how it not only was not criticized but has been roundly and repeatedly praised.

I think it IS possible to do blackface and have it be a smart satire where the racist is the butt of the joke, but VERY damn difficult. Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder worked imo, but I certainly wouldn’t argue with anyone who took offense to it.
