Sharlto Copley is in this??? I had no idea. I've been debating seeing this, but thanks for pointing out he's in this movie. I do love Angelina (I've thought more than once that she seems to be morphing into a CGI version of herself, just because as she gets older and thinner, her features are becoming more…

It reminds me of the old movie studio system from the 1920's-60's that existed, where there was a casting couch to gain entree to being considered for contracts/ roles/ castings, and even though many young starlets were unhappy about "auditioning" that way, they were too intimidated to say no for fear they would be…

I always had my nose in a book while growing up (I'm a child of the 70's, old to some :-) and read anything and everything... my parent put no restrictions on what my sister and I read, watched on TV or saw at the movies, so I was exposed to tons of stuff in my formative years. The Red Shoes always stayed in my head…

I love this idea and would watch it all the time. What other properties can she sell? I did hear that Skull Rock was sold as a tear-down opportunity, because vandals left garbage and boy-related damage all over it. Eww.

I would watch that show. First they must storm the writer's room and kick some serious ass regarding their exile. Also, after revealing some key information, sleeping beauty Aurora and what's-his-name (her prince) hid beneath a gazebo and never came out. WTF??? Did Regina also use her real estate broker talent to sell…

I'm a pop culture junkie, and totally watch movies/ TV that doesn't helm perfectly to the source material... just commenting that this one in particular was wildly different, so I've heard... I'm a podcast nerd, and listened to one episode regarding Frozen detailing all the changes. I'm sure I'll watch it at some…

I will, at some point. Don't get me wrong; I think Disney does a great job with taking these stories and making them suitable for their target audience, and the quality of their animation is always perfection. I think it's great that they finally made a story about 2 girls, instead of the usual boy focused or…

I don't know... I have a problem with instant gratification, so I always order the season on iTunes (standard definition) and get the new episodes right away. It's summer now, so all shows I follow are off the air, boo. I need new ones to get obsessed with! I've already binge-watched anything I'm curious about.

I haven't seen Frozen, because I heard how much it deviates from the original Hans Christian Andersen story... I understand why a lot of these original stories have been changed since they often include disturbing and violent content, not to mention they don't all have happy endings (check out The Little Mermaid for a…

I thought the same thing watching this last season. What happened to Mulan? Cinderella? Red Riding Hood? Also, the fact that they spent half a season on that boring Neverland Island annoyed the shit out of me- no clothing changes for Regina; she wore the same blue blazer that made her look like a real estate broker…

I know what you mean about getting priced out of your home town... I left Manhattan almost a year ago because after being laid off from my job, I could not afford to live there. NYC has become a place that's impossible to live in unless you have a well paying job, a two income household, independent wealth, or 3…

Maybe. I just think it's a case of "the lady doth protest too much". Business is business, and money is everyone's goal, so I do think a little spill-over wouldn't be SO unwelcome. After all this time & ubiquitous media saturation, I'm happy to say I've never seen the Kardashian TV shows! Remember the days when Kim…

The Hamptons, particularly East Hampton, are seriously congested traffic-wise... I can't imagine how much worse it will get. I think the outcry of local shop owners near where the pop-up store is being stationed are whooping it up in private. It's going to be extra shopping traffic for them, and extra PR if they…

I can't bring myself to go look at this wedding dress feature because as a divorcee, I feel bitter and cynical when I look at things like this, all the stupid starry-eyed optimism, and think SOMEDAY YOU WILL BE LIKE ME!!!! At least I admit it. Actually, deep down I do still believe in love and marriage, but not sure…

I thought there was a new kind of DJ style that somehow involves slash fiction. I think I need another cup of coffee.

I couldn't bring myself to read the whole piece, but reading the pull-out quotes above made me think, "Wow, that's Fox News level delusional hatred." Who lets these things go to print?

I saw "17 likes and 188 shares", and I thought, that's quite a disproportionate amount of shares vs. likes. My hope was that the 188 shares were people sharing w/the comment "Can you BELIEVE this fuckwad had the nerve to post this???". 17 likes is pitiful, and whoever clicked "like" for that post is especially…

I was hoping they might make some change to keep him around for a bit longer, because the actor portraying him was so good and the rabid fan community loved him so much. H/e, they have been so faithful to the books, so you knew it was coming. RIP, Oberyn. Too soon to leave us!

What a great reaction shot of The Hound! You can just hear him thinking, "Oh, shit... I dragged this girl all the way here, and NOW WHAT???" I loved her free-but slightly-unhinged peals of laughter.

The reason for doing the S/M/L size range instead of 2/4/6/8/10/12 is that production patterns start with a size deemed as the middle point (like an 8 or a Medium) then a technical designer (or the factory's production pattern maker) grades the pattern up and down for the other sizes. Grading takes time and sometimes…
