Oooooh! Good thought! “I was just standing in the corridor, minding my own business, and this really rude guy came by and starting swearing at me. He looked like a real douche, and I noticed he was with some Nazis. I panicked, and I just... fired.”

I like how Spencer has the balls to talk about free speech when this is what he thinks about woman’s voting rights:

If someone goes up on stage and punches that douchebag in the face, I will donate to their legal fund.

Fair point, but what if the president asks for a private citizen to be fired for something they say?

“but Spencer has since threatened to sue over free speech rights”

Always fun to revisit one of the greatest memes ever.

That would actually be amazing. There are only modern retelling of Nancy Drew. It would be incredible to see it done in its own time.

I’m an old lady so I want to see a version that takes place in the 60s with Bess and George and Ned and her Dad and the housekeeper and her convertible and buffoonish bad guys. God I loved those books when I was a kid. I still have a bunch - maybe I’ll break some out this weekend for old times sake.

Hmm. That sort of sounds like if Cagney and Lacey merged into Murder She Wrote.

No no nooooo. I just want REAL Nancy Drew. I want crumbling New England manor houses, secret passages, inexplicable gangs of smugglers, and a teenage girl who shows no interest in getting a real job.

Yay! While I liked the race-blind casting for the CBS pilot, I really hated the general premise they used for the series. I was not at all excited to see Nancy Drew reimagined as CSI:River Heights. Here’s hoping the new pilot will produce something closer to the source material story wise, while still remaining…

Smart women are a threat. Let’s publish ALL of the same stuff nearly word for word with boys as the protagonists and call it the hardy boys. Then it will be OK. (wink)

Maybe they wanted more Ned? Useless white guys are so underrepresented on TV.

I believe Bjork because Von Trier is a piece of shit.

SKEWED TOO FEMALE?! IT’S MOTHERFUCKING NANCY DREW

I can’t even describe how much these books meant to me growing up. Anything Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys was and is so good.

Abusing actresses into “incredible performances” is effffffed up and nasty mythology stuff that the acting community needs to wipe out. Too many men feel that they have the license to torture actresses to get “incredible performances.” I’ve worked with enough non-sadist women to know that incredible performances can…

Paul Bettany openly talked about what Von Trier got up to on the set of Dogville. I seem to recall it was stuff like buying a stack of porn mags and telling an actress that they were Bettany’s. Said he hated the guy so much by the end of the shoot that he dragged his bed away from the hotel wall because he knew Von…
