Amazingness P2: The Mighty Bellas Yessss. This is how you do a sequel. You push so hard into the deep sequeliness of it that you go Malkovich on your own movie.

Amazingness Boston celebrities talk about Tom Brady’s balls Deflategate, in which the New England Patriots are accused of deflating footballs because OH MY GOD WHO CARES.
