Absolutely no offense to young fans of Glee (I enjoyed the hell out of the first season, so I get the appeal), but I'm just thinking of teens going to it expecting something lighter and Glee-y and getting child abuse and abortion and death. Although if you wanted a musical to teach teenagers why proper sex education…

I'm amazed by actors who know roles like this on cue. I minored in theater but never actually did performing in college (mostly screenwriting/play analysis classes), but I have this recurring nightmare where I'm playing Lady MacBeth and know 0 of my lines and so I just start winging it ... I can never remember if the…

The last thing I saw her in was Wicker Man. Oh, she tries so hard to elevate that movie. It didn't really work because ... yeah, it didn't really work. But she tried.

I do like the idea that Watson is prepared to deal with the BS that comes along with her aging like a freaking human being. And that she's ready to push back against the BS.

And does anyone else think not-Mystique's hips look super skinny? Maybe it's how she's standing but in case the actress' face didn't hint to you that it wasn't Jennifer Lawrence, the hips sure did.

Well, danger IS funny. They've got us there.

It seems that people who are against giving aid to the poor (cough cough Fox News cough) do so in the same breath as they call poor people scam artists who aren't really suffer, who are actually bad people who just happen to be super lazy. So showing someone who is empathetic and is struggling to survive ... that's…

So is this basically a Mary Sue criticism? That this woman is too perfectly empathetic and therefore .... something?

If they really wanted to go for a joke, they could have said, "These ladies look adorable, but maybe next time they can wear the Flash instead and see if their times improve!" See, it's not making fun of the girls and it's a comic book joke! Win win!

Yeah, I thought wearing funny clothes was relatively normal in marathons.

Even if she didn't have cancer, you must have a lot of nerve specifically asking a person for a photo of themselves for your magazine and then mocking her in it. You know that she knows that you're putting it in and will check the magazine. Pretty tactless even without the added detail of her struggling with a major…

That's so weird. My mom (who was born in '55) told me when I was learning to read that she thought it was great that I was learning phonics because she didn't learn it that way. I wonder when phonics really started and when it started getting phased out.

I think the "led to a decline in teen births" is a bit misleading. Not saying that the show absolutely didn't help the statistic, but is there any evidence the decline is directly from the show?

How about the fact that any normal college class would have him writing a full paper ... one that is multiple pages long with an introduction and middle and conclusion and sources. One that takes more effort than a paragraph. Say what you will about how useful writing papers is for most college graduates (I'm a…

Wait, they don't teach phonics anymore? Not that phonics is perfect (especially with English, a langauge that pulls from so many other languages), but I know it was being taught in the late 80s.

I'm trying to decide what grade year in elementary school that paper would fit into. I'm thinking third. Fourth is pushing it.

Can we make "keep going until you find the g spot" a requirement?

"Help, I'm on fire!" "Don't worry, I'll built you a birthing canal!" "...."

Creative and functional!

Plus it's dark and you don't know if the person has a weapon or not. Not saying it's okay to fall into the background in one of those situations, but I'm not sure I wouldn't go into freeze mode if it happen near me.
