Maple Leaf Ryan Gosling goes dark Have you seen Ryan Gosling in The United States Of Leland? It was years ago. His character had dark hair. He was adorable.

Movie Reviews and Previews Michael B Jordan: Adonis in the ring Adonis is a GREAT name. I mean it’s a balls out name, for sure. And Duana would say it’s a lot of expectation to give to a baby. But holy sh-t, imagine meeting an Adonis who actually fit the name Adonis? Michael B Jordan is totally an Adonis. By Lainey • Apr 15, 2015 12:22 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Carey in Charge On paper, would you ever consider giving Carey Mulligan top billing over Meryl Streep for a movie? Their star power and cinematic trajectories couldn’t be more different. But that’s what happens in the first trailer for Suffragette, which was released today. It’s a first look at what By Joanna • Apr 15, 2015 11:54 am

Maple Leaf McJakey! Gossip Genie activate! Stop acting like it was your idea. I’ve been riding this Gossip Genie wish since 2010. It’s been FIVE YEARS.

Movie Reviews and Previews All the peppy Avengers Sarah mentioned in the previous article about Chris Evans that he was supposedly, um, pretty peppy at the premiere last night. I just watched all of them playing Family Feud on Kimmel before they hit the carpet and, with the exception of RDJ, I think all of them were lit. By Lainey • Apr 14, 2015 09:58 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Avengers: Age of Beardy Chris Evans Enjoy while it lasts. Principal photography on Captain America: Civil War starts in a few weeks and Beardy Chris Evans will be no more.

Gorgessity My Obsession’s other accent Warned you about this in the last post from yesterday. My Obsession walked the Avengers: Age Of Ultron carpet together last night.

Media Manipulation Intro for April 14, 2015 Dear Gossips, It was reported yesterday that Ben Affleck’s name appears before Henry Cavill’s name in the credit listing for Batman vs Superman.

Quiveration Preview to My Obsession As I’ve mentioned 80 times already, the Avengers: Age Of Ultron premiere is tonight.

Joss Whedon has taken great care By Lainey • Apr 13, 2015 04:38 pm
