Cattrall is older than SJP, she’s 65 now - only two years younger than Mr Big, whose death everyone seemed to consider fairly realistic for the plot. She’s actually in the largest cohort for deaths from breast cancer, 24% are between 65 and 74.

A late reply, but The Devil Wears Prada was almost certainly about Anna Wintour, the editor-in-Chief of American Vogue. The author of the original book, Lauren Weisberger, previously worked as Wintour’s assistant. If you’re thinking of the character of the rival French editor in the film, she is likely based on Carine…

Placebo’s cover is basically the original with Brian Molko singing along, they even got Kate Bush to contribute vocals.

He was grandfathered in then too though - David Simon had already had a big success with Homicide: Life on the Street. He wasn’t a nobody.

Castoreum is actually used pretty rarely, but only because it’s more expensive than real vanilla.

The scene on the right is a cake one of the contestants made on the show, in an episode where all the bakers have to make party items (so cups, a bowl of chips, and a birthday hat). Maybe he watched her tutorial, but there’s no way for Netflix to have known that, and the techniques he uses are ones that other bakers…

Plenty of uncomfortable things are done for vanity’s sake, I have a whole collection of high heels to attest to that.

Superhero movies are uniquely tied to those Very Online communities though. While Tom Cruise could probably kill a man in broad daylight and still make a decent box office with Top Gun 2, superhero shit relies on nerds lining up at midnight and obsessing online to make a movie seem like a piece of the cultural…

Miller was staying with a couple in Hawaii who bailed him out of jail, and then he burst into their bedroom in the night and threatened to murder them and stole their wallets and passports. They seemed pretty scared of ongoing retaliation, since he seems to know them.

It’s weird that they didn’t give better context from Nick Cuse - Cuse specifically accused Fukunaga of manipulating him into working for free and stealing several writing credits. Totally unrelated to the accusations sexual abuse and harassment, but still scummy.

Eh, Disney has a strangehold on the animation industry, if they said no to this job other ones might dry up too.

While this is true, there are some fairly common triggers that it’s useful to me and many others to be warned of in advance. Personally, I just need to know that there’s going to be sexual violence in something before I watch it - if I get a warning, I’ll be fine, but if it takes me by surprise it can ruin my day.…

Accusing trans people of “jumping the line” is also a wildly ignorant argument to make, because trans people have been fighting for their rights for decades too. They just haven’t gotten much traction before now.

I once fainted and hit the back of my head on a tile floor, and my scalp was split open. It is hard to imagine the mechanics of how it happens, but hitting a hard surface from a height seems to cause a kind of... bursting effect.

She’s the one who levied the suit against him - she brought religious authorities into it, because that is the government where she made her complaint. He has no agency in the situation, he didn’t bring the case to court in the first place.

The documentary series is on Netflix, but it was made in 2004 for french TV. The length isn’t something you can blame on the streaming site.

Citation needed? I just watched an episode out of curiosity, and he had 1. a segment with a gastroenterologist, 2. a segment with a molecular biologist, 3. a list of citations on the website that is primarily medical journals, with a few news sources sprinkled in. It seems a bit hypocritical to say the show doesn’t do…

While this is indeed cringeworthy, I feel like people are kind of missing the point: there’s something missing or wrong in a marriage where one partner spontaneously develops feelings like this for a new person. So while the “soulmate” thing was bogus, ending the marriage was the right choice.

It’s also a bizarre criticism for shows like Wandavision and Hawkeye, which were very much episodic TV shows.

My boyfriend and I have been watching a bunch of them lately, they’re pretty hilarious. Missy Elliot has a chair that’s also an aquarium! She sleeps in a racecar bed with a TV built into it! The music industry was at its peak, and a lot of rap stars had come into a lot of money very young and were spending it like…
