JK Rowling is opening the Wizarding World to everyone

The first excerpt from JK Rowling’s History of Magic in North America was posted yesterday, and it focused on Native American wizards. As a half-Oglala Lakota kid who grew up searching for any signs of my culture that wasn’t a mascot, I almost cried reading it. The

Team Bartlet back together

If you loved The West Wing, if you miss them, all of them, you have already clicked on this post and are looking through the pictures and maybe crying a little and watching the video. Also you may have told Aaron Sorkin to f-ck himself. This is what Duana

Zootopia is a 21st century Disney classic

I know I’ll catch hell from the Frozen fans for this, but Zootopia is the best move from Disney Animation since The Lion King (it also just set a box office record). First of all, animals wearing people clothes is always the best, and every movie could be improved

Emma & Ryan for 2017?

You’re about to punch me. Because the Oscars just ended a little over a week ago and already I’m talking about next year’s awards. Before you go for my face though…wait! This is about Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, does that help? As you know, the

Elijah Wood and Nicolas Cage in THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER

Elijah Wood used his Lord of the Rings juice to push through passion projects like the criminally underseen TV show Wilfred, and genre movies like the Maniac remake and Cooties. But apparently he’s grown tired of being a purveyor of fine niche entertainment and has entered the ironic portion

Jada & Willow in the front row

Jada Pinkett Smith and Willow were front row at the Chanel RTW presentation today. It’s Jada’s first major appearance since Chris Rock called her out on stage at the Oscars. She wasn’t invited to the Oscars and while her complaint about it may or may not have

Game of Thrones Liar Bingo

If you have “Kit Harington tells bald-faced lies to the press” on your Game of Thrones Liar Bingo card, mark that sh*t off because Kit Harington told a bald-faced lie to the press. Speaking to Time Out London about the fate of Jon Snow, Harington said, “Look,

Relationship Assumption

Miley Cyrus, “housewife”

How do you know you’re a narcissist? When you think everything is about you. When Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth got back together, I was hot for about 5 minutes. Then they started selling it to me like a piece a of sh-t on the lid of a

Six Degrees of Separation

Do you immediately recognize the name Selma Blair? I would guess yes, because she might be C in status but for those with even a passing interest in pop culture, she’s a B in name recognition. Selma is one of those names that isn’t really attached to any

Shrooms to share

A fun, quick little blind that went down after the Oscars… It happened at one of the best annual after-after parties, where the top tier ends up after Vanity Fair. She decided to celebrate on shrooms. And she wasn’t selfish with her shrooms. She wanted to share her
