Quiveration Oscar reads Let me tell off the top that I don’t have video for this and I’M SORRY, I can’t find it. I am as disappointed as you are. Because I’d probably rub one out to Oscar Isaac reading too. We do have pictures though? Does that work? By Lainey • Mar 14, 2016 11:41 am
TV Updates The CSA Message Dress The Book Of Negroes is of the most important literary works to come out of Canada. It’s about a woman called Aminata, born in West Africa, kidnapped and sold to slavery in America – a difficult but necessary read. The story was turned into a miniseries airing in Canada on By Lainey • Mar 14, 2016 09:51 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Captain America can do this all day The second—and some say final—trailer for Captain America: Civil War was just released and it’s a continuation of what has been, so far, a stellar ad campaign. Last year, Disney kinda blew it with Avengers: Age of Ultron, not really doing a great job communicating the tone By Sarah • Mar 10, 2016 02:47 pm
Media Manipulation The Aaron Paul Edition of Ask, Believe, Receive Do you think asking for things on Twitter is a bit desperate? Like if you were applying for a job, would you tweet the company and tell them you really, really want it? If you are Aaron Paul, it seems to work. He’s been talking about the Stephen King By Maria • Mar 10, 2016 02:31 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tina Fey in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Tina Fey’s latest movie, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, is a frustrating viewing experience. Directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (Focus, Crazy Stupid Love), the film has the same tone problems that have plagued the duo since their debut film, I Love You Phillip Morris, which is magic they have By Sarah • Mar 10, 2016 12:19 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The Witch Imagine if The Crucible and The Shining had a baby and rolled it around in Twin Peaks dust, and you’d have The Witch, the feature film debut of writer/director Robert Eggers. Set in seventeenth century New England, The Witch draws much of its dialogue from actual historical documents By Sarah • Mar 09, 2016 04:01 pm
Style Alicia post-Oscar So you know how Hollywood is the pettiest, cattiest cesspool of narcissists and backstabbers? What do you think they’re really saying to themselves now that Alicia Vikander, who’s been in the game a minute, has an Oscar? Jennifer Lawrence did it too. But Jennifer Lawrence has kind of By Lainey • Mar 09, 2016 03:49 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Zootopia is a 21st century Disney classic I know I’ll catch hell from the Frozen fans for this, but Zootopia is the best move from Disney Animation since The Lion King (it also just set a box office record). First of all, animals wearing people clothes is always the best, and every movie could be improved By Sarah • Mar 08, 2016 03:40 pm
Media Manipulation Emma & Ryan for 2017? You’re about to punch me. Because the Oscars just ended a little over a week ago and already I’m talking about next year’s awards. Before you go for my face though…wait! This is about Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, does that help? As you know, the By Lainey • Mar 08, 2016 01:21 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Elijah Wood and Nicolas Cage in THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER Elijah Wood used his Lord of the Rings juice to push through passion projects like the criminally underseen TV show Wilfred, and genre movies like the Maniac remake and Cooties. But apparently he’s grown tired of being a purveyor of fine niche entertainment and has entered the ironic portion By Sarah • Mar 08, 2016 12:54 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Zendaya is the first of Spider-Man 3.0’s new friends I have never seen anything Zendaya has been in—she’s a Disney kid?—but I have seen her on red carpets and in interviews, and she strikes me as an above-average articulate young woman who does not suffer fools. Every time I have been made aware of her, By Sarah • Mar 07, 2016 03:04 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Ben needs Jen Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck stepped out this weekend with their kids in LA. No tension, not at all. After that amazing Vanity Fair interview, Jen’s been really generous with Ben. She told Extra last week that for their son’s birthday party: “We all dressed up, I dressed By Lainey • Mar 07, 2016 01:14 pm
BFFs Leo’s one week with Oscar Yesterday was the one year anniversary of Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris. They seemed happy. But not happier than Leonardo DiCaprio who celebrated his one week with his one true love, Oscar, in LA, out for lunch with friends. Since Sunday, it’s been party, party, party for the Wolf By Lainey • Mar 07, 2016 09:58 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Gerard Butler in London Has Fallen London Has Fallen is a movie in which the leaders of several sovereign nations are explicitly and violently assassinated on camera. Then half the city of London is blown up—particularly, all the “known landmarks”, as opposed to all those unknown ones—and then we spend two hours watching as By Sarah • Mar 04, 2016 01:27 pm
Media Manipulation Katie is not engaged There’s a rumour going around that Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes are engaged because he was spotted wearing a ring. I don’t even need Gossip Cop to debunk it for me because that’s the dumbest make-a-story ever. He won’t even take her out in By Lainey • Mar 04, 2016 11:55 am
Hook Ups Amanda Seyfried’s new boyfriend What’s the meaning of “new”? Is it new the moment something is confirmed? Or is it only new when it begins? Sorry. That was a tangent… It was confirmed by both US Weekly and PEOPLE yesterday that Amanda Seyfried and Thomas Sadoski are dating. You may remember Thomas from By Lainey • Mar 04, 2016 10:28 am
