    Edibles + CATS = one of my favorite cinematic experiences of all time. Hilarious, touching, confusing, bored, and downright scary when Judi Dench turns to the camera and stares at the audience. Tom Hooper should never be allowed to touch the director’s chair again until he realizes that close-ups for 5 minutes…

    I still loved it haha. Was listening to it on the train this morning just to spite Coachella.

    Carly Rae Jepsen is only 4th line billing. The homophobia!

    Arthur meets the Simpsons?

    Weird timing for a pop culture announcements seems like as good a reason as any to write an article for a pop culture website. Did you expect a dissertation? This isn’t an essay  it doesn’t need to have a point

    Who’s outraged by this? Seriously, there’s nothing in the article from the tone that sounds like outrage it’s more like “oof, bad timing A&E”. You’re railing against nonexistent outrage. Is any complaint now outrage? Can you point me to where he was expressing rage or anything other than slight dismay at the timing? 

    Don’t remember much queer subtext? You must not look for queer subtext much/are straight because a) Bram Stoker himself was def gay albeit closeted, b) Dracula was in love with Harker (He yelled at the female vampires for trying to nom him and directly tells them “This man is mine”). For more interesting readings, you…

    “In a recent interview with The Times, he downplayed Dracula’s queerness, describing the creature who likes to mesmerize men for their bodily fluids as “bi-homicidal,” not bisexual or anything like that.”

    I’m glad to see Gatiss and Moffat continuing their shitty queer baiting they started in Sherlock

    Nah, “But what unites them all is a general callousness toward bottoms or even a delight in the knowledge that it is they who get to “use and abuse” bottoms. Is this a cultural artifact? I find the notion of putting someone else in pain for my pleasure so repulsive that I have yet to top anyone.” definitely sounds…

    Yeah! How dare someone have an opinion on a pop culture event and talk about it on a pop culture blog on a post talking about some of what happened in pop culture over the last year!

    Plus Perfume Genius is a perfect music choice

    No artist is allowed to be upset when their work is mangled and not how they wanted. Don’t they know how lucky they are to be allowed to create music in the first place? Only we commenters are allowed to complain!!!

    Or Hans Zimmer and BWWWWAAAAAM

    On him and like 90% of people who also can’t tell the difference between ambient music? I can tell the difference between Pinot noir and Zinfandel, but don’t be asking me about different vintages and wineries within that. 

    Plus Carrie the Musical is, up until maybe Spider-Man, THE most notorious flop in Broadway history. It closed after 16 previews and 5 performances.

    1 adaptation out of 4(? if you include sequel) so far is not a good track record.

    Do you also find not hearing what Bill Murray says at the end of Lost in Translation to be a cop out? Not seeing inside the case in Pulp Fiction? It’s less about the actual physical object and more of what it represents. For The Lighthouse, that’s a coveted knowledge. The final shot of the movie is Robert Pattinson…

    They should have went a Pacific Rim route, ending on a platonic hug rather than obligatory romance. I don’t need their heterosexuality thrown into my face like that.

    Well, duh, because Poe was gay and Finn is bi and Rey is at least attracted to men (might be bi still). It’s less a triangle and more just an angle with Finn as the vertex. Let them be the polycule I want them to be

    Consistent screenwriters + story writers (as seen in the OT) is more important than consistent directors.
