Movie Reviews and Previews Fantastic Four is an unmitigated disaster The writing was on the wall, but even amid downgraded expectations, Fantastic Four managed a spectacular belly-flop over the weekend.

Movie Reviews and Previews More like Un-Fantastic Four Well, Fantastic Four really sh*t the bed this weekend. All the problems plaguing the movie behind the scenes and dogging its disastrous release will be dealt with in a separate post, so that here we can simply focus on the final product, which is just the worst. It’s By Sarah • Aug 10, 2015 10:02 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Kate Mara’s loose leather dress Love that this leather dress isn’t tight. And the bow on the one shoulder. Also that the hem appears to be unfinished. Totally works for this look. By Lainey • Aug 05, 2015 11:44 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Fantastic Four may not be a total loss And solely because of Michael B. Jordan. The final trailer for the gritty reboot of Fantastic Four is out and it looks like all your least favorite parts of comic book movies—destruction on a massive scale, blue beams of light pointing at the sky, overly serious dialogue, overreliance on By Sarah • Jul 14, 2015 01:13 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews David Oyelowo and Kate Mara go on the lam Relief—a movie trailer that doesn’t make me want to crawl under my bed and hide! After a series of trailers that I had to watch with one hand over my eyes because the events depicted are pants-sh*tting scary, the trailer for the upcoming thriller Captive is a By Sarah • Jun 17, 2015 02:54 pm
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Kate Mara’s red jumpsuit I guess red is the colour if the party’s for you. This jumpsuit is perfect with her short hair. And I do like how it’s generously cut through the hips. The shoes are throwing me off though. One strap would have been enough and not like crinkle cut By Lainey • Jun 16, 2015 03:42 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The Martian: Also NOPE I called Everest a big bag of NOPE after watching the first trailer, and after sitting through Fox’s three minute-plus first trailer for The Martian, I am adding this movie to the NOPE bag, too.

Movie Reviews and Previews Fantastic Four is all about Michael B. Jordan Fox’s Fantastic Four reboot is flying under the radar, as far as superhero movies go. This one has the least amount of hype and pre-release attention focused on it, and I can’t help but think that’s a good thing: With expectations low, even a mediocre result will By Sarah • Apr 20, 2015 11:06 am
Movie Reviews and Previews David Oyelowo and Kate Mara face off In the battle of the Rooney Sisters, where do we stand?

Bitch please Lights, Camera, Pretention! Sometimes when I’m in mixed company and people ask what I do, I get some flack for being an entertainment writer. Usually it’s from men, and it’s always a bit of a condescending take: entertainment news is shallow, it’s silly to like gossip, tabloids are for By Maria • Feb 06, 2015 01:04 pm
Golden Globes 2015 Robin Wright & Kate Mara: Would-be Globe Pairings One of the things about all the people we write about is that they mostly exist in a bubble. Like, Oprah knows them all, but largely speaking you don’t have a lot of Viola Davis and Keira Knightley making a buddy comedy together. They don’t run into each By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 09:58 am

TV Updates “That’s just my face penis” One of the earliest rumours about the True Detective Season 2 casting was that Ellen Page and Kate Mara would replace Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson.

Emmy Awards 2014 Kate Mara: Repeat Shoes at the Emmys Really don’t understand her devotion to these shoes. They’re SO low classy. But Kate Mara wore them last year at the Emmys – click here for a refresher – and she’s doing it again this year with a different strap. Toes get squished together in heels, we know.

LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Kate Mara black, white, and kicks Obsessed with this outfit. It’s more than just a black and white top when the collar is nicely trimmed like that.

TV Updates True Detectives? Ellen Page and Kate Mara went for a walk together in New York yesterday. Love the hang of Ellen’s jeans. Love Kate’s slip-on animal print kicks. Love that they’re close.
