@jessacecilia: I laughed out loud during R.R. it was so ridiculous. The Reader... it just didn't bring anything new to the conversation of post-war German guilt and culpability, imo. #jenniferlopez
@LaComtesse: I don't disagree with your take on The Reader but I did enjoy it. And I think my hope for R.R. was that it was going to be Titanic 2. I was so excited to see the two on the same screen together that I was severely disappointed when the film during out to be so drab.
And also. who in god's name are the people who loved it so much? I'd like to talk to the Academy about this one.
PS, glad we're talking about this a year later. #jenniferlopez
Andre is passionately anti-abortion but accepted his glamour model wife needed the procedure after a doctor told her there were "complications" with the pregnancy.
Seriously, Andre? She had to terminate a pregnancy because of medical reasons and now you're upset because she's "betraying" you by talking about it? News flash, not everything is about you. You are not the victim in this. I never had strong feelings either way about either of them, but after reading this, I am strongly Team Jordan.
@Sputnik_Sweetheart: You know, an abortion is something horrible women do TO men out of spite. And then have the nerve to talk about it instead of hiding in shame in order to humiliate them farther, obviously.
If Josh's stripper didn't know he was married, why would she then ask him if he was Fergi's husband?
More importantly, why am I giving this any thought? #jenniferlopez
This will probably be my first and last Kristen Stewart comment, but I wanted to post it to commend her on being aware of her grammar! I hope some of my students were paying attention. Go Kristin, grammar role model!
@Diziet_Sma: I wanted to like it but I really, really don't. I hope whoever buys it puts up the cash to take down all that black wallpaper. It looks like a giant speaker system. #jenniferlopez
@Diziet_Sma: What's with people thinking black and white are a perfect match for ANY occasion? Monochromatic homes are nearly uninhabitable. That said, that round bathtub is pretty awesome, too bad the rest of the bathroom is so ugly.
Slightly confused by Carey Mulligan's quote about Nick Hornby's genius understanding of schoolgirl mentality...:
"Set in the 1960s and based on a memoir by Lynn Barber, "An Education" tells the tale of a middle-class suburban London schoolgirl who gets seduced by a much older, jet-setting man (Peter Sarsgaard). It's about cool French songs, slender women in tight-fitting shifts, a teenager's first foray into illicit adult romance and the inevitable shattering of romantic illusions."
I mean, it sounds great and I quite like Nick Hornby and am glad he did a good job adapting the memoir into a screenplay, but give some credit to the source material.
I just want to say that most Australians are completely ashamed of the 'sketch' shown on Hey Hey It's Saturday, and of all the apologists that seem to need to defend it. We do not find it funny, we do not find it acceptable and we are sorry it ever existed.
Unfortunately, Australia, like the US, does have a sub-group of willfully ignorant rednecks, and these are the target audience of this dated and tacky show. I am so sorry that they think this sort of thing is defensible.
@willwriteforfood: Although Angelina does a lot worldwide for children etc, and has come out in favour of gay marriage she also cites Ayn Rand as one of her favorite authors and has said publically Atlas Shrugged "changed" her life.
I get the feeling she may be somewhat of a Libertarian. There are just several snippets out there that make me think she may lean toward some of her Dad's ideas.
(And I agree with you on the Jon Voight's "social conscience". Dude is scary.)
Valerie, there is nothing wrong with a big slice of pizza. The key is moderation. It also doesn't hurt to be active. Denying yourself, however, will only set yourself up for failure. Trust me, I learned that one the hard way.

I wonder where Jon Voight's social conscience went when he went off the rails and turned into a birther.
