And he survived a JJ Abrams movie!

"The tribe has spoken"
"The tribe has not spoken."
"The tribe has not spoken. Abi, gather your things."

Much as I thought the idea of putting Lupita Nyong'o under CGI was dumb, I really liked Maz Katana and wanted to know more about her. (And oh my, Nyong'o has a fabulous, warm voice.)

Maybe a quibble or two, but there is a lot to love about it.

Today I learned that Unforgettable still exists and was picked up by A&E.

Let's make the distinction: the rest of the show aside, Community had one of the best ensembles for six years.

I'll make the case for The Last Five Years, the best love/hate story of the year. It's too bad it kind of got buried, but now's a good time to catch up with it.

She and the Donut Time clerk in Tangerine are the best one-scene actors this year.

I liked it, but it's more for the characters and those wonderful performances than the story.

Cinderella is, indeed, swell. I enjoyed the hell out of it (and I look forward to it winning the Costume Oscar).

I actually just saw Duke yesterday, and I was glad I went in cold without knowing anything about it.

And Duke Of Burgundy, which is also great.

Oh hell yes.

I'd kind of forgotten that. Oy.

Thankfully, they did cast here since she was very good in it.

The weird lake house episode is a classic for a lot of reasons, from the Slkars to the jigsaw puzzle.

I just had a weird moment where I realized that Michael Chernus from Manhattan (Fritz) is also Cal (the woods weirdo) on Orange is the New Black, and he's fantastic on both.

Watched the season finale this morning! Was sniffling like crazy!

I watched Manhattan finale this morning and my god, I was welling up. Michael Chernus as Fritz is the late-season MVP for his work those last few episodes.

Is this carried on anything in the states?
