I've heard a story that the casting directors for Harry Potter would call up whichever British thespian they wanted, and if they got turned down they'd tell them "ask your kids/grandkids/nephews and nieces". Invariably, the kids would demand they take the role.

"That gill-boy ain't right for this spyin' business, with the Japanese launching their raid so soon."

Right now, there's a producer somewhere in LA demanding to know which Game of Thrones kid can do the best Irish accent.

It's going to be so hard for a young actor to pull that off. In the books, he was written with a sort of Cumberbatch-Sherlock level of total analytical genius and smugness. Even if you up his age from 11 to, say, 17, it will still be hard to find an actor who doesn't make you want to punch them right in their…

I loved these books as a kid. Like most of my age, I consumed Harry Potter ravenously, but Artemis Fowl had a globe-trotting super-genius adventure focus that was so much more vibrant and interesting than some boring prick waggling his wand around. I always thought that it was a shame that the film rights were snapped…

If only NBC had some other gothic, quasi-mystical drama with a man-eating protagonist well-known to audiences for their involvement in a long-lasting horror franchise and status as a troubled sex symbol that they could have just renewed to satisfy rabid internet fans and critics alike…

The key to a good vampire drama is to keep the stakes as high as possible. Then to bring them down, swiftly, into the heart.

Yes, Mr Mirage, everything stinks

"My name is James Riley. Cooter Burger? What do you think I am, a cartoon dog? The President named me that! Cooter because I look like a turtle, and Burger because he saw me eating a burger. One time! It wasn't even a hamburger, it was a sandwich!"

Donald Trump: Nobody knows what it means, but it's provocative. It gets the people going.

It's getting to the point that the number of people cast in upcoming superhero projects is actually greater than the number of people who will watch upcoming superhero projects

Devil in a New Dress
He uses his ego as part of his public persona, and expresses himself poorly. Also, probably racism? Seems to me that a lot of white artists- John Lennon springs to mind- did just as much attention-grabbing ego-dickery as Kanye.
Sure, he protected the papacy and removed the Lombards from power

I don't think I could ever upvote anyone who has the audacity to end every comment with their own monogram

When the cameras were off, that Buggy had some really strong opinions about Mexicans.

I was gonna pay for my college education, but a racist car sounds like a better idea.

This is really interesting, thanks a lot for linking to it. A handful of my favourites from briefly looking through:
The first appearance of Buck Rogers in print, priced $200-300.
The front door of Norman Bates' home, $20-30,000
The General Lee with Confederate Flag roof, $100-150,000
Joffrey's crown, $15-25,000
Slave Leia…

2) My ongoing feud with Wu-Tang Clan

I have it tattooed on my face, so anyone who walks by can see it

Most used quote from this episode: Lenny's "…Please don't tell anyone how I live", pretty much any time that someone walks by my window or comes into my place without me cleaning up beforehand.

You'll have to let me know what you think- I stumbled across it randomly on-demand. I'd read about the case earlier in the year when Vice wrote an article about the real haunting to promote the drama, but was shocked by how sophisticated it was, not at all the Conjuring style straight-up horror I'd expected. I was…
