I didn't think that Blackfish was a cinematic triumph (although very compelling) and I also don't really think that kinda movie is the academy's thing in the first place. This comment though from the CEO makes me feel like they made a concerted effort to see that this film was not nominated... Regardless, I hope…

i think its gotta be a really common among women that age. I don't feel like their marriages were necessarily toxic but just a little forced. I hope your grandma is ordering green pepper pizza on the reg. And perhaps my grandma is now ordering a pineapple and ham pizza in hawaii for her new bf. haha.

YES. And she basically made that face when she metaphorically dropped the mic. Amazing.

not referring to it, but i don't mind em either. no tears though...

it is sad. I think given the right era she could have been president. she was completely trapped in this life. unfortunately, her subsequent actions to make everyone pay for it sucked. also when theres people who have some expectation for love, you either need to give in or get out. I kinda like the idea of her…

names were not mentioned and it was told through a removed narration. Like she told their life story as if she was a removed character. Saying things like "In 1951, he met a woman and they were married within months." Her last sentence was "and now its time for the woman..."

my grandmothers speech (i don't know if theres a religious term for it) at my grandfathers funeral was basically a "And now its my time" declaration. It was nuts.

not enough happy endings gifs in this world

Erin, so SO many props to you on the "glomar" reference. Since listening to the episode, I've been received with cricket noises after using it.

I always believe things about celebrities being assholes. If I were to find out Jon Hamm was a jerk, it's the rare situation in which I would outright deny it. Impossible.

It's always been so bizarre to me that men (i guess maybe women too, I dunno) fixated on knowing the "real name" of strippers. It seems strange to want that fantasy of a no strings arrangement and then to seek out a more context seems...out of context. I do agree with you that its a "tell me I'm the special one"…

I think if my partner planned our wedding it would be a Taco Bell Cosplay Wedding. I'm assuming if we get married our wedding will be at least half of that awesomeness.

Another commenter really clarified it for me. Its felt very strange to me and just very random. I think whether you're feeling it or not, Biscuit Neeson is the cutest name ever.

I find it sort of laughable at times, I think it sort of reaffirms the norm there that Stewart doesn't pander to his guests like other hosts but sometimes it makes for an awkward interview. I do think though that he takes the time to research the guests who have actual causes or nonfiction works.

Thank you! I've done some mild googlin about this and didn't really come to a root issue. I just wanted to know WHY he was throwing his hat into the ring on this.

I did. I found it so uncomfortable all around. Although, as much as I love Jon Stewart, I find his entertainment interviews to be uneccessary, he really sees he movies/show and its always pretty obvious.

I'm sort of confused about this Liam Neeson/horse carriage thing. What is the deal? He can't be paid for this, right? It's a little disturbing and it kinda feels like we're watching an unhinging.

my boyfriend and i had an at length conversation about this at dinner. we said we'd probably hold it above our heads, bite out the bottom and do our best to get most of it in our mouth.

oh if I wasn't so hungry and tired right now I would be making some sort of pervy plumber/pipe joke about dudes...

this whole situation is so weird and I feel so uncomfortable about a person having an animal like this as a pet. but mostly, i feel bad because seeing a picture of this monkey in a coat (and all the pictures from this event) still makes me giggle. I wish I could grow up.
