My 12 year old says “cringe” is not cool to say anymore but that picture is cringe.  Red hair!  Beard!  Sunflowers!  Sunshine!  Put some freaking swirls and moons and stars in there, why dontcha?

Smell-O-Vision, though.

You started a most delightful thread here.  Good work all around.

I like both actors but this seems like such a bummer.  

I don’t know either but it felt accurate (I think something can be glib and facile and also accurate). Say you’re on social media and you post an impassioned screed about something you care deeply about. Then the likes start rolling in. Then somebody offers you a paid opportunity based on your screed. Suddenly it…

You’re really onto something. What is needed here the Tarantino/Django Unchained treatment. We are all tired of dye-jobs tilting their heads winsomely to try and capture that Princess Diana magic. Hand one of them a semi-automatic.

Connor’s the best.

Having just finished watching the entirety of Schitts Creek with my family (less family friendly than one might think, it turns out, although I managed to avoid explaining to my kids what a “happy ending” is in the massage context) I would watch Eugene Levy in anything. He’s an utter delight. Dan Levy on the other…

Man, I had to scroll all the way to the bottom for a Jackie Jormp-Jomp reference.

This comment is very much Veronica Geng’s George Bernard Shaw:

I doubt your sister likes that, even 40+ years later.

That’s my favorite too!  

I really liked Buffy, Angel, and Firefly at the time but I look back and see the creepy stuff, and there was a lot of it.  I hope he’s done, like not just hiatus done, but done.  

I think the best looking older actresses are either genetically blessed or get really excellent surgery/other work where they look like a gorgeous version of their actual age. Kidman crossed some kind of surgical/filler threshold years ago where she just can’t move her face all that much and I find it hugely…

They had their own production company so I would imagine there’s lots of scope for walks and talks and business shouting.

Ew.

I am a Gen-Xer and the blue marble anecdote was meant more as a example of a Gen-X experience than a rhetorical question (I never heard the phrase “pale blue dot” before). But anyway, you are putting interesting information out there, honi soit qui mal y pense.

I definitely get where you’re coming from, but overall it seems like a win for viewers (not a win when he agreed to bloat out The Hobbit, but that’s another matter). His massive staff/financial resources, combined with his personal interest in that era, got the WWI documentary made in a way that would have been…

I’m still mad Donald Sutherland wasn’t cast as Denethor even though I’m sure it was never a possibility. He’s who I always pictured for that role. I pictured Gwyneth Paltrow for Eowyn.  

Orlando Bloom added a very particular something for some of us.  If that was the role then thank God Brody passed on it.
