Was that an additional ETA joke thrown in?

Remember a few years ago when there was a week of hype about Oprah running for president?  Yeah....

Somehow I missed that Mary Wilson and Markie Post died. Both were iconic in very different ways.

Yep - the boomers have the money to spend!

The things Didion found tacky and the things she found critically important will always baffle me, because Jesus was she stuck in her “teenager of the 1950s” ways, but goddam if her actual writing wasn’t immaculate.

Disagree on the ‘Walking in Staten’ pre-tape, but fair point on the final Update last year. I was so caught up in Cecily’s wine-soaked Jeanine Pirro I pretty much forgot about his bit.

Has he? I can’t think of any that thematically seemed like a “goodbye” sketch.

Anyone else think this was Pete Davidson’s farewell sketch?

There was an especially cutting line about Kidman in a review of ‘The Golden Compass’ that I remember:

Who pushed her into child hooker film roles? It wasn’t “the media” - it was her mother. Who forced her to sit down with Barbara Walters? It wasn’t “the media” - it was her mother.

Ok, so....

I dunno about Darrell Hammond. I think he probably should’ve stayed on forever. Has he worked any since? And had he remained on, it would’ve spared us Alec Baldwin’s abortion of a Trump impression.

That’s fine, but you have to correctly credit the writers, which Disney (or whomever this Mouseketeer records for) failed to do.

This made me audibly laugh. Nicely done.

John Mulaney in September: “A woman and the fetus she’s gestating saved me from the depths of hell.”

I’m kind of glad the Guccis are pissed. I am so sick of tongues-up-asses biopics that do nothing to shed light on the complicated parts of a celebrity legacy, and a movie that DOESN’T revolve around a musician is one of the few opportunities to make an honest movie without requiring the cooperation and approval of the…

I would love for someone to answer with a “I’m not familiar” and move on.

I think ‘Point Break’ and ‘The Matrix’ are spot on for easy-to-watch early Keanu, but ‘The Devil’s Advocate’ shouldn’t be on that list, and not just because it’s batshit and not very good, but because it’s a rough watch thematically, and his ‘Point Break’ stuff isn’t too different, acting-wise (ditto for ‘Speed’).

Or, to be more applicable across the board, casting for identity (race, gender) is not only fine but should be pursued. But casting specifically for a temporary life event (that is/can be part of, but not the whole of, that identity) is another thing, and a bridge too far. Once you start doing that, it’s no longer…

It’s absolutely the same thing.
