Movie Reviews and Previews Barbie and Ken’s school run Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling were photographed on the set of Barbie, both done up in tacky-ass Western wear, which is perfect. Robbie-Barbie is sporting a hot pink bedazzled bell-bottom ensemble that wouldn’t go amiss on 1970s-era Dolly Parton. Gosling-Ken is in a black and white fringe outfit that By Sarah • Jun 24, 2022 10:34 am
Gorgessity All the pretty Thors Here are all the pretty Thors and other assorted beautiful people at the world premiere of Thor: Love and Thunder last night.

Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for June 24, 2022 Dear Gossips, It’s not that I am unaware that everything sucks right now. The January 6 hearings continue, providing a daily stream of terrifying reminders of how close we were—are?—to losing our democracy, Netflix just laid off 300 more people who probably didn’t have anything to By Sarah • Jun 24, 2022 09:18 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Can Elvis be a Superhero? The box office this weekend will be interesting to watch because so far, at least from what I’ve read, no one really knows which movie will come out on top. Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis is opening alongside The Black Phone but Jurassic World Dominion is of course still attracting By Lainey • Jun 23, 2022 11:15 am

Amazingness Messrs. Evans and Waititi Lightyear disappointed, but you know what is never disappointing? Chris Evans + Taika Waititi. Evans voiced the “new” Buzz Lightyear in the film, and Taika one of the Space Rangers.

BFFs Mimi is a Bro Sarah posted last Friday about the new trailer for Billy Eichner’s upcoming rom-com Bros and as she said, “please just give me this movie right now”.

TV Updates Bridgerton boys out and about It’s a Bridgerton reunion at Milan fashion week, as the duke and the viscount themselves, Regé-Jean Page and Jonathan Bailey, ended up at the Giorgio Armani show.

Movie Reviews and Previews Lightyear had a bad weekend Lightyear, Pixar’s unnecessarily confusing prequel/spin-off of Toy Story, opened over the weekend, and if you haven’t heard, it kind of flopped. I say “kind of” because if they had simply spent less money on it, its $51 million opening weekend wouldn’t seem quite so dire, but By Sarah • Jun 20, 2022 01:58 pm

Part of me hopes they explain this hair choice, and By Sarah • Jun 20, 2022 11:31 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Let’s be stupid and romantic with Bros Ah, a Friday refreshment from the new trailer for Bros, Billy Eichner’s gay rom-rom due later this fall, which feels so far away but is really just three months from now.

Movie Reviews and Previews Ana de Armas is Marilyn For the last few weeks, ever since the Met Gala, any conversation about Marilyn Monroe is accompanied by Kim Kardashian. And you know how social media works in these times – for a lot of people now, in their minds, Marilyn now will always be connected to Kim. At least until By Lainey • Jun 17, 2022 01:23 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Austin Butler, one week out Elvis opens one week from today. As Lainey said yesterday, these are the final moments before Austin Butler’s life blows up once everyone gets a look at him as Elvis Presley.

Gorgessity Countdown to AustinMania We’re heading into the final week of promotion for Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis, when we get to see just how ready audiences will be to go back to theatres when it’s not a franchise film, not an action film.
