First of all, I like The Little Drummer Boy.

I think it’s just a matter of, did that really just coincidentally happen like 19 times in a row or whatever? Maybe they’re not exactly doing it on purpose, but come on, the odds are pretty long on there being nothing untoward going on even subconsciously.

Good riddance. The baked Alaska is one of the best foodstuffs in the world and I was tired of this asshole sullying its good name.

I’m pretty convinced it’s Chic, just because of the way they phrased it: “Would I recognize your face?” It’s sort of vaguely phrased so he could definitely be all “see we’ve never met but I look JUST LIKE Alice”.....

What a fucking loser idiot. JFK sucks.

Honestly, I thought that was pretty obvious just by watching the movie.

I realize this is a weird thing to focus on but is anyone else bothered by Hermione’s hair? It’s always in the same position. Her hair is never behind her. It’s never done up. It always has those two curled sections hanging in front of her shoulders and the rest behind her. It’s really uncanny valley.

I personally it might have been really interesting if American Sniper had actually incorporated Chris Kyle’s seemingly pathological need to lie into the movie itself. Was he always such a fabulist, or did war make him that way? And if it’s the latter, how did that happen? Maybe his experiences affected him in a way

I genuinely thought it was intentionally sarcastic. Like, the movie was gonna be a satirical look at rah-rah “support our troops” rhetoric and how empty it is.

Man, that confused the fuck out of me. Isn’t she Canadian?

I get that judging a famous person by how they come across publicly is kind of unseemly, but as long as we’re doing that, he absolutely strikes me as the bullying type.

This was my favorite Disney movie as a kid.

Having now seen it, I think the point of the line about Cristal being the black sheep was that she comes from a family of either hustlers or scrappy poor people (maybe both?) and everyone else in her family is like Sammy Joe* so Cristal is the “black sheep” by getting an education/trying to make something of

It seems that most people are pronouncing it like, rhymes with kleenex. I would personally vote for pronouncing it like latinequis (as in like, lah-TEEN-eh-kis) to make it kind of fit in a little more with other Spanish words but nobody cares what I think.

God, me too.

And Cristal is obviously a woman so there is no reason not to refer to her as Latina.

Thank God someone finally said it, but if anything I think this article doesn’t go far enough.

I was once a shithead teenager who went to a high school full of other shithead teenagers but a) I never would have done any of this shit, and b) anyone who DID do any of this shit would have been raked across the coals by their peers.

I dunno. Evidently the second one will be set 20 years or so after the first one so maybe you’ll be fine.

I really liked Tangerine and I’m pretty excited for The Florida Project.
