Movie Reviews and Previews Gael Garcia Bernal in Desierto The last time I struggled to see a movie my patience paid off and I saw Hell or High Water, one of the year’s best films (watch it be a surprise Best Picture nominee). So I was hoping, after some difficulty getting to Desierto, that it might pay off By Sarah • Nov 07, 2016 02:18 pm
Media Manipulation Jennifer by the sea You know what I did there. I am a sh-t. Here’s Jennifer Aniston on the cover of Marie Claire. The photo shoot happened on a boat. She looks amazing. I love the shot of her in that grey hoodie, wearing joggers, her freckles visible below her bright blue eyes. By Lainey • Nov 07, 2016 12:21 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Johnny Depp’s magical backlash It was revealed the other day that Johnny Depp has been cast in the sequel to Fantastic Beast And Where To Find Them and may have a cameo in the first movie.

Movie Reviews and Previews Ruth Negga and Joel Edgerton in Loving 1967. It wasn’t that long ago. Our parents were alive. Your grandparents could have been going to the movies to see Sidney Poitier and dancing to Elvis, stars that are still relevant today. 1967 was the year Richard and Mildred Loving were finally told that their love – specifically their By Kathleen • Nov 04, 2016 10:41 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Benedict Cumberbatch IS Doctor Strange Benedict Cumberbatch stars as Stephen Strange, an arrogant neurosurgeon who is great at his job but terrible at everything else. He’s arrogant, rude, belittling, and selfish, and he’s mean to Rachel McAdams which is a shorthanded way of making a character instantly unlikeable. There’s a strong similarity By Sarah • Nov 03, 2016 02:26 pm
Music Justin Timberlake Can’t Stop Sorry, I should say Justin Timberlake won’t stop. He will never stop promoting Trolls. America could be well into HRC’s second term and JT will still be rocking a troll costume and singing the most annoying song of 2016. Name a more annoying song than Can’t Stop By Kathleen • Nov 03, 2016 11:11 am

Quiveration Jake’s promise to Ellen Said this before, will say again, I love watching Jake Gyllenhaal on Ellen. They have a really cute chemistry. My favourite is from years ago when he kept calling her on his birthday. Have you watched that back lately? His voice is hilarious, the way it gets more and more By Lainey • Nov 02, 2016 02:12 pm
