PENIS CLAUSE!!!

What I think of is Gone Girl. In one scene Ben Affleck’s character is supposed to wear a Yankees cap. Affleck doesn’t like the Yankees. He refused. Production shut down for four days while the director got on the phone with Affleck’s lawyers and agents and whatnot trying to get an actor to wear a hat. And that

You wonder what the other people in their lives may have had to put up with on account of their actorly dedication. Although, as you alluded, at least it’s the actors themselves bearing the brunt of things.

There is a strange obsession from some film directors to get “real” emotions from their actors on set. Ridley Scott did it with the chestburster scene in Alien, Kubrick with Shelley Duvall on the set of The Shining, and clearly Bertolucci did it with this film. Now those first two examples are far less egregious than

Definitely not the same thing, but I always roll my eyes when actors go to extreme lengths to “get real.” Oh excuse me. Method acting. Anne Hathaway starving herself for Les Mis. Dustin Hoffman denying himself sleep in Marathon Man. Jared Leto being an asshole in general on movie sets.

How much more authentic John Snow getting stabbed would have been if he had really been stabbed!

If she objects in the moment, she’s called unprofessional and is still pressured into doing it.

Outstanding idea!

I didn’t want Maria to act her humiliation, her rage. I wanted Maria to feel, not to act, the rage and humiliation.

It’s strange to me that this is news now. I mean I’m glad it’s being talked about. But she said this FOREVER. Now people believe it because they heard men verify it?

My favourite is the one who somehow thought Trump would solve the wage gap?! Even if you buy into his “I love women. Women are tremendous” bullshit, was I asleep when he acknowledged the wage gap?

Well, I can take joy in the pain of people who are regretting their votes because Donald is not building a wall/prosecuting Clinton. I really don’t have a lot of sympathy for those ones.

Newsflash; people who can’t tell they’ve been conned surprised when it turns out they’ve been conned.

God damn it. Yeah I love that movie but it’s too depressing to think about it now. :\

We’ve only seen the teasers, I’m waiting for the show to actually begin before making up my mind. The Trump Show is gonna be running for four years, so I prefer to like it rather than preemptively hating it.

Also, the majority of voters in this country wanted Hillary, or at least not-Trump, and by a pretty wide margin if you figure in third-party votes. So he won by the electoral college, a system he has called corrupt. His “victory” is hollow, yet he claims it anyway. I know I’m not saying anything new here, but I just

Never forget.

Ugh where are these fucking time travellers when you need them?!?!

Oh, dear.

And I saw a snowball! Therefore, the planet is fine.
