I honest to God don’t understand how they made him look SO BAD in this movie. I live in New York, and through a series of events ended up at Shakespeare in the Park a couple of weeks ago. To my fangirl shock, Ben Platt and a couple of friends were in line to pick up tickets a few people ahead of me and my mom. It was

Plus Fahrenheit 451! Fantastic movie.

I honestly don’t remember where or when I first saw it, but I do remember thinking it was so weird, and yet so good, and that it had professional bad guy Rufus Sewell as a protagonist! It’s so unknown, though – any time I try to describe it to someone, I feel like I hallucinated the whole thing. I’m so happy to see it

🙋🏻‍♀️ Hi, it me. I’ve never seen anyone peel a peach and frequently eat them like apples. Who wants to fight with it by trying to slice it off the pit?

Yes! And it was bugging me after you said this, because that name looked familiar and I couldn’t figure out where I knew it from – she played Reese Witherspoon’s hometown friend in Sweet Home Alabama, which I can’t believe I never realized before. “That Jaclyn Smith knows what she’s doing!

Yes! I always liked how lovely the portrait that sparks the story is, because I find that oftentimes in movies with a conceit like that, the picture or book or what-have-you feels forced. I never realized that it works so well because Drew has a good face.

I don’t know, but you definitely should! :) It’s on Disney+, if you have that. It’s everything this review describes it as and more. Top-notch performances.

Now playing

“Of course not, Mother ... I’m only here for the food.” Flawless.

Jia was actually a fairly prolific writer and editor at Jez before she went to work at the New Yorker.

ETA: ugh, I keep forgetting Kinja hates links.

Wait, what did I miss about Anthony Rapp??

Don’t feel bad – a year after you, the same thing has happened to me. 

When I was in college, I (stupidly) gave up coffee for Lent one year, and when I got terrible caffeine headaches, asked for advice on a food forum. There was one similar jackass who managed to turn a perfectly pleasant conversation into a screed about my FAITH, because apparently not suffering silently meant that I

Someone stuck in the grays told me the same thing – that sounds very cool. (Sorry! Kinja is horrible and I can’t bring you out.) I googled him after I posted my comment and it turns out he’s been in a couple of things I’ve liked; I guess I just have a mental block when it comes to him.

2) If I can’t control every aspect of her life then no one else can

I always get Teaching Mrs. Tingle confused with the alien invasion teacher movie with Jon Stewart. If I remember correctly, there are a bunch of 90s stars in that, too.

My sister and her husband did that! It was really cute. I just put out a bucket with little goody bags and hoped for the best. They all went, but I didn’t watch to see if it was a bunch of kids or just one greedy group. 

I rewatched it a couple of weeks ago when these trailers were making the rounds! Absolutely holds up. Could not for the life of me tell you who the actor playing the prince was, but he was utterly delightful. (I assume no one needs me to repeat how amazing Drew and Anjelica are.)

Same! I finally got my hands on a Cosmic Crisp last fall and was wildly disappointed. It was just resoundingly fine, which is not what I was expecting, and in fact it left an odd aftertaste. Back to Fujis and Honeycrisp, I suppose.

Yeah, I definitely googled whether or not you can do it in the oven after reading this, and found a couple of acceptable-looking recipes. I might try it tomorrow for dinner.
