I guess you could look at this as progress that a completely uninteresting-looking movie about Filipino-family hijinks (and I say that as a Filipino) got greenlit. In a way, you’re right that BIPOC filmmakers and actors should also have the same opportunity to put out terrible films as their white counterparts do.

A day later for She-Hulk: Attorney At Law? I object!

I didn’t read the article so I’ll just assume this came about because it’s incredibly common for people to find large garlic-shaped skintags erotic.

Saw her open for Natalie Prass. Donnelly won over the audience real quick. She’s a charmer and really uses that charm well/interestingly especially in her songwriting about harassment, equality, etc.

That original movie is incredibly sacred to me, so probably won’t come near this unless the reviews end up being spectacular.  They’ve got a very high bar to clear even with just casting.  Griffith, Weaver, and Ford were really perfect for those roles.  Godspeed, remakers.

I’d put Moneyball at the top, both for the movie being so incredibly rewatchable and for Pitt’s lovely work.

Seems suspicious that this distraction is coming out the same day there’s a NYTimes article on record profits for Chevron and ExxonMobil despite tough economic times for the average American! I guess now we know who’s in Big Oil’s pocket, eh, Mr. Smith?!?

Damn, Daniel!

Tangentially, should we still be using terms like butthurt? That sounds like a little bit like insulting someone by trying to emasculate them by saying they were a bottom during anal sex and they’re gay and that’s bad.

Disappointed the characters aren’t speaking with House of Gucci Italian accents.

Sure. Except I had no idea who thebloodfiend was until this AVClub article hit.

More like Sub-par-mariner, AMIRITE?

Are we missing any other Phoenixes?

Let’s see Leila Hatami in the Danny DeVito role!

This is a good list.

I ask a similar question about actors’ line readings in Wes Anderson movies.

And what about M. Night Shyamalan and M. Night Shyamalan?

Pretty sure Jesus didn’t audition.

Everyone knows that guy was actually saying “Judith”.

There you go.  It’s just been announced officially: Lea Michele is stepping in as Fanny.
