Baby and Bump Obsession Angelina and kids see Love, Simon Angelina Jolie took her kids to the movies over the weekend. Originally, it was reported that Angie, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne went to see Tomb Raider. That would have been a nice story – “Angelina Passes the Torch to Alicia Vikander”!

Movie Reviews and Previews Ava DuVernay is already moving on It was everyone’s low-key worry, right? That after A Wrinkle in Time merely whelmed, Ava DuVernay would not get the same second (third, fourth, fifth) chance that her white male peers get to go on and make another blockbuster, like, say, Zack Snyder who made a divisive Superman movie By Sarah • Mar 16, 2018 03:21 pm

Jordan. Next to the party are Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, through their Pearl Street production shingle. Okay. Fine. If they want to be productive allies By Sarah • Mar 13, 2018 03:14 pm
Equality Issues MOST BAE Jordan I can only assume Kathleen has fallen down a well and is incapacitated at the moment because Lainey assigned me a Michael B.
