Movie Reviews and Previews Spider-Man’s girl problem In the wake of the announcement that Sony had pre-emptively greenlit two more Spider-Man movies with Andrew Garfield, it was also announced that Shailene Woodley, cast as Mary Jane Watson, was being cut from Spider-Man 2. At first, this wasn’t that big a deal. With two more movies to By Sarah • Jun 24, 2013 12:05 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Tris glows Duana wrote about the Entertainment Weekly Divergent cover yesterday -- click here for a refresher. She wasn’t feeling it. Specifically the way Shailene Woodley looks as Tris, her point being that it’s called Divergent for a reason. Tris is Divergent. She is Dauntless AND Abnegation. And in that By Lainey • Jun 20, 2013 03:59 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Am I one of them? A hypocrite, I mean. I really don’t want to be. But I can feel it closing in. Is it nobler to admit it, or to feign that it’s not happening? The truth is always the way, right? Here’s what I’m saying: after whining about how people By Duana • Jun 19, 2013 12:26 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Lack of Diverse Imagination I don’t like feeling duped… Last night I got all screechy hysterical on Twitter over what was promised to be a “sneak peek” of Divergent. Basically I was one step away from calling Lainey to hold my hand while we watched. Bah. This single photo is not a sneak By Duana • Apr 24, 2013 03:23 pm
Book Review Shailene Woodley and The Fault In Our Stars I apologise in advance. For many of you, The Fault In Our Stars by John Green was one of the best books of 2012. I liked it ok. But I didn’t love it. I didn’t cry. I tried to cry, I did. But it just wasn’t there By Lainey • Mar 20, 2013 03:25 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews This is your Four Remember when some silly random rumour went around about Alex Pettyfer confirming the coveted part of Four in Divergent? It will not be Alex Pettyfer. It will be Theo James. You may know him as Mr Pamuk from Season 1 of Downton Abbey whose body they had to drag down By Lainey • Mar 15, 2013 02:44 pm
Book Review Is this Tris? Click here to read my review of Divergent and here for Insurgent. I am obsessed with the story. They started on the screenplay last year. Now I guess they must be closer because Deadline is reporting that Shailene Woodley is the frontrunner to play Tris. Deadline is as about as By Lainey • Oct 19, 2012 12:12 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Shailene Woodley starts the clock on Emma Stone I liked The Amazing Spider-Man well enough. Mostly, I liked how great Andrew Garfield was as Peter Parker, but it wasn’t a bad movie. The biggest issue was that it didn’t do enough to separate itself from the Sam Raimi treatment of just a few years ago. When By Sarah • Oct 11, 2012 12:58 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews About Last Night (Again) According to The Hollywood Reporter, About Last Night is set for a remake. The first thing I thought was that’s not possible, the movie isn’t old enough (and neither am I). Released in 1986, it holds up pretty well with its, “boy meets girl in a bar, they By Maria • Jun 29, 2012 12:01 pm
Dumbass Shailene Woodley doesn’t know LOVE what Shailene Woodley wore at the Movie Awards last night. And then she went up on stage and goddamn I wish she didn’t. It was the Breakthrough Award. She was the only person in her category who attended the event. So... Her people don’t explain how this By Lainey • Jun 04, 2012 11:38 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Shailene Woodley doesn’t care Oh, I see what you’re doing here, Shailene Woodley. You were in an Oscar-nominated film last year. You were almost a nominee yourself. But your day job is on ABC Family. Like television. It’s a teen show. Thing is – you’re not just a vapid teen who cares By Lainey • May 03, 2012 10:07 am
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Shailene Woodley’s horrible dress I hate the print. If it was more random...I dunno...maybe. But you’d have to change up the material too. But mostly it’s because the dress is so terribly unflattering. It pulls down her breasts. She’s young enough, we know she has perky breasts, and right By Lainey • Mar 13, 2012 11:39 am
Dumbass 20 at Oscar: Shailene Woodley I'm caught between empathy and irritation with Shailene Woodley. I'm not used to feeling these two things together so maybe if I explore the more benign one, the other will be slightly less annoying. I love vintage dresses. I have several that are, to me and By Duana • Feb 27, 2012 01:28 pm
LifestyleArticle Carpets & Candids: Barefoot at the Spirit Awards Shailene Woodley took her shoes off and did the carpet in bare feet. So this is a signature thing now? Because I'd like to see her try it at the Oscars. By Lainey • Feb 25, 2012 05:25 pm
