She got into show business by being a successful comedian. Making people laugh requires the ability to observe phenomena, link them to people’s lived experiences, view them in a novel way, and describe them in a fashion that causes a broad group of people to understand and take on the speaker’s perspective.  That’s…

I’m surprised that Whoopi Goldberg forgot the golden rule: If your statement about the Holocaust begins “The Holocaust wasn’t...” then just don’t say it.

As always, we thank you for 2,500 words critiquing the apology.

Whoopsie Goldberg

Oy vey.

“Living in your head rent free” is this decade’s “I know you are but what am I?” It doesn’t have to make sense in context, it’s just a display of contempt.

Huh?

From what LMM has said in interviews, Disney got to decide which song they wanted to submit for Oscar consideration. They chose Dos Oruguitas because they thought it best represented the spirit of the movie. Here’s his explanation.

Is it inescapable? I’ve only heard it in the movie, and I can barely remember it as I didn’t think this was LMM’s best work. It’s no Let It Go which truly was EVERYWHERE

The article throws shade at “A Whole New World” as an “ok” song, but that shit bopped.

Really, Aladdin was wall-to-wall bangers for Disney. 

I thought it was due to its resemblance to Santana’s Smooth. I’m expecting another close cousin of this song to be making a reemergence again in 2045.

I need an app or something on my phone to help keep me from clicking on an article only to find out Barsanti or Lussier wrote it. 

Someone else pointed out (possibly on this very website - I don’t remember where I saw the remark) that there’s an odious double standard when it comes to cheating in movies: when a man cheats on his wife that’s inexcusable, but when a woman cheats on her husband it’s OK provided it’s with a woman/non-binary person…

I like em. To me its interesting to see these two-who normally would be boring normal people you wouldnt look at twice-and see how they adapt to this increasingly fucked up situation.

Yep, yep, yep.

That reminds me of this really pretentious pizza place I used to live near. They made this big thing about how they ran out of dough every day around mid-afternoon. Almost every day there would be a whole slack of hipsters lined up down the street, hoping against hope to get their turn before the day’s precious dough…
