Bad Style Tina & Amy are trying Last night was the premiere of Tina Fey’s and Amy Poehler’s new movie, Sisters, which opens next week against New New Star Wars.

Movie Reviews and Previews Tarzan, King of the Cheese The first images from Alexander Skarsgard’s probably doomed movie, Tarzan, have been released and holy buckets of hell, they are so cheesy. There are two photos—one shows Margot Robbie as Jane in a dirty dress, with Tarzan creeping on her, and the other is of Tarzan’s abs. By Sarah • Dec 09, 2015 10:58 am
BFFs Rob & Gwyneth Rob Lowe received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame yesterday. He could have received it 20 years ago and he would still look exactly the same, what is the secret, seriously!?! If you’re a millennial you might not understand what Rob Lowe means to the generation that By Lainey • Dec 09, 2015 10:12 am
Gorgessity His & Her Awards It was announced today that Alicia Vikander will receive the Rising Star Award at the Palm Springs Film Festival in January.

Media Manipulation Ben Affleck and Sienna, the moll Production on Ben Affleck’s Live By Night has moved to Los Angeles, or at least it was there yesterday. Ben and Sienna Miller were both photographed on set in costume yesterday with Sienna going full moll. Since it was announced that Sienna was cast in the film, we’ve By Lainey • Dec 08, 2015 01:00 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jennifer Jason Leigh’s Oscar moment There has been an unusual amount of focus on the actress categories in the Oscar race this year, because for once there is an overabundance of worthy performances by actresses. Usually, these categories lock up pretty early with a clear frontrunner and the obvious runners-up, and it feels like By Sarah • Dec 08, 2015 12:21 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Channing is the other one In the previous post about Mark Wahlberg, I mentioned that there are two names that will always elicit screams from our audience at The Social. Channing Tatum is the other one. You just have to say “Channing Tatum” and people lose their f-cking minds. Now this I can support. By Lainey • Dec 08, 2015 11:55 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Daddy’s Home in Dublin I mentioned Daddy’s Home yesterday in my post about Chris Hemsworth and In The Heart Of The Sea – click here for a refresher. The question was about the audience for that film because Star Wars is eating everything. Some of you wrote back to say that In The Heart By Lainey • Dec 08, 2015 10:56 am
TV Updates Chris Hemsworth’s 2nd SNL As I mentioned earlier, I haven’t yet watched Ryan Gosling’s episode of Saturday Night Live. Sarah texted me just now to tell me that it wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good and that she was disappointed it wasn’t better and that she looked forward to By Lainey • Dec 07, 2015 01:33 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe are Nice Guys I don’t care what you people (read: Lainey) say about Ryan Gosling and his “cute”—as long as he’s making good movies, I’m into Ryan Gosling. Admittedly, the last few years have been a little rough. Gangster Squad was not good, Only God Forgives was unwatchable, and By Sarah • Dec 07, 2015 11:50 am
Media Manipulation The difference between Tom & Leo Tom Hardy and Leonardo DiCaprio were in London together yesterday at a BAFTA screening for The Revenant. All we hear from The Revenant is about Leo’s performance. And even though many experts are predicting that Tom will be recognised for his work with a Best Supporting Actor nomination, Leo’ By Lainey • Dec 07, 2015 10:47 am
TV Updates All I Want For Bill Murray’s Christmas special is more Miley I was looking forward to Bill Murray’s A Very Murray Christmas special on Netflix, but it turns out this is a case of all the good stuff being in the trailer. Directed by Sofia Coppola and written by Coppola, Mitch Glazer (Rock the Kasbah), and Murray, A Very Murray By Sarah • Dec 07, 2015 10:15 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Revenant, aka Leo Eats Sh*t For Oscar Earlier this week we were treated to the exquisite gossip that Leonardo DiCaprio was (not really) violated by a fake bear in The Revenant. This produced some the silliest/most hilarious headlines in recent memory, and it only got funnier after Fox issued an official denial. But it was also By Sarah • Dec 04, 2015 04:00 pm
Media Manipulation Harvey’s hopes for Rooney & Jake Harvey Weinstein wrote a piece for The Hollywood Reporter that was published yesterday about award season, specifically about his concerns about award season and how the only films considered are the ones that are released in the fall, ignoring quality features that opened earlier in the year. After complimenting other By Lainey • Dec 04, 2015 10:52 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Pffft. Thor is weak. Check out Chris Hemsworth at the premiere of In The Heart Of The Sea last night in London. This film was supposed to be released earlier but they thought it'd be better for the holiday box office. And maybe some awards? Chris lost a lot of weight for By Lainey • Dec 03, 2015 01:34 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews James McAvoy and DanRad in Victor Frankenstein I was excited for this movie after seeing the trailer because I really like the combination of James McAvoy and Daniel Radcliffe, who have great chemistry together, and even when reviews started coming in bad, I shrugged it off. After all, I liked American Ultra, which is written by the By Sarah • Dec 03, 2015 01:16 pm
