Movie Reviews and Previews The Jared Leto Emo Yakuza Movie The last time I reviewed a movie for which the description sounds like a random Scrabble result, it was the whimsically insane Michael Shannon Christmas Bigfoot Movie.

Sports Tom Brady’s TB12 method I’m pretty sure my family would only disown me over two things: 1. If I murdered someone and 2. If I became a New England Patriots fan. My family is very just and very into football. I think I could get my mom to help me bury a body By Kathleen • Mar 13, 2018 09:57 am

What Else What Else? I don’t have any smut on Tim McGraw collapsing onstage in Ireland (yet – stay tuned). All I can tell you right now, for what it’s worth, and it may be worth nothing, is that it’s well known in the industry that he exercises obsessively. He runs a By Lainey • Mar 12, 2018 04:29 pm
Show Your Work Podcast Show Your Work: “The Room Where It Happens” If you know Hamilton, you know where we took our inspiration for the title of this week’s episode of Show Your Work.

TV Updates Grey’s Anatomy cast shakeup I’ve found both April Kepner and Arizona Robbins insufferable for full seasons at a time during their tenures at Grey Sloan Memorial. I’ve also found them both inexplicably engaging, likeable and progressively more tolerable as the seasons went on. Arizona was at her best when she was with By Kathleen • Mar 12, 2018 09:48 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Pratt: from coffee to sushi? Back in the day, there used to be a prescribed schedule where dating was concerned. Drinks or coffee first, because dinner was too much of a commitment. And if that went well, you’d move on to the next step. I can’t remember the next step, it’s been By Lainey • Mar 12, 2018 09:26 am
