Sweet Jesus. The Supporting Actors THR roundtable will be a laugh riot.

No, no, bear with me here - imagine Mark in his Detective Toschi get up, all that curls, that sweet teddy bear look, being in despair, sending e-mails to people, probably hiding in the corner somewhere, because Fincher is being Fincher. Perhaps also waving an upside down Avengers flag as a distress call to RDJ? This is priceless. I love this.

Can I hold him, please?

I finally rewatched My Life Without Me:

The list of absolutely UNACCEPTABLE things Mark was doing in this movie includes - watching a woman sleep, giving that woman his coat because it's cold outside and 'he likes the idea of her wearing it', dancing with her on a cliff after he tells her he was scared she won't come and his "body was hurting" because of that fear, reading to her while he is being shirtless and giving her a long speech about how much he loves her.

Wait, how did I not pass out watching this?

So is that what some women actually have? Because all I've got this week was my boss yelling at me so bad that I cried after I got home. Then 2 days later she was nice to me. Christ, you can make a remake of Girl, Interrupted right where I work, with absolutely no preparation whatsoever. Just shoot this shit and it's there.

I have to go to work in 6h. And then tomorrow on Saturday I am working too, just to have Christmas Eve free. I can't believe I have 16 more hours of work this week. Have I died? Is this Hell? Please tell me it's purgatory and in the end I get Ruffalo.

You know what? They should just clone Mark Ruffalo and give him to every good woman out there. We deserve this ladies!

Check out this photo from Cannes. Oh, Mark.

There's more adorable for you on the left there. I can't take this.

Tomorrow I'm gonna see What Doesn't Kill You where Mark plays a criminal. That's all I need to know to watch it. Also what a fitting title for a movie with Ruffs in it.

I saw 9 movies since last RF. This is some sort of record. And I'm not counting rewatching some of Now You See Me scenes a bunch of times. Like, really, a bunch of times.

I've been watching these Oscar movies this week and I think that perhaps the entire space of my heart has been sucked up by all those Ruffalo gifs you see here because I wasn't moved at all by either Still Alice or Boyhood. They weren't bad but they were forgettable. Nothing was especially awful it was just...there. Moore was good but, fuck, this isn't even in her top 5 best performances. Boyhood was interesting but it didn't have the charm and poignancy of Before trilogy where you went 'Yes! I feel that too!" I had no moments like that in any of 165 minutes of this.

You know what it is this season? All those films are fucking anemic. There are no explosions, outbursts, things that grab you. Gone Girl had the energy, even damn Interstellar woke up from slumber for some real emotions there. Stuff that really made you pay attention like Amy's reveal or things that really moved you like 'Because my dad promised me'. Theory of Everything, Boyhood and Still Alice had none of that for me.

But I also saw two movies I actually liked this weekend - Babadook andNightcrawler.

First one was really interesting, well made and clever but yet again it was a horror movie where the dog dies. Can we just maybe ban dogs from appearing in horror movies completely so that their dog characters wouldn't die? It's the movie cliche I hate the most The whole time I was like "kill the kid, just don't kill the dog". But other than that the script was very well written and Essie Davis' performance was really good.

Nightcrawler was excellent - this is the kind of movie I like - exciting, dynamic, relentless. I always said my favorite Gyllenhaal's performance was in Brokebnack Mountain but he was even better here. Just a thrill to see that film and his work in it.

And check out that pic on the right from his next film. Dude is seriously not fucking around:

I also saw The Immigrant which was almost impossibly stupid. Joaquin Phoenix's and Jeremy Renner's characters were so terribly written, Phoenix's pimp who would get mad whenever someone touched his hookers was so unreal it actually made me laugh. Cotillard was excellent, she was better in first minutes of the movie than Julianne Moore in entirety of Still Alice.

I saw Obvious Child and it was fantastic, such a great little movie. This is the kind of stuff that they should be nominating in comedy categories.

This movie was more open minded than I am. I cannot imagine the guy actually accompanying his girlfriend to a procedure like that. Personally for me that would be way too traumatic to even continue with this person, if it happened at such an early stage of relationship. Like years later what if you have kids and then you would always go 'we could have had one more'. I'm one of those people who is very pro choice, I actually don't think a man should have any say in this. Many men are wonderful parents, I'm sure they are supportive through pregnancy and all of this but the simple fact is that it's the women who go through 9 months of medical hell, labor and a lifetime of responsibility. It's their lives. I don't think it's remotely fine to go 'but we created a life, so just wreck the rest of yours and do something you are not ready to do because through this coincidence we created life". Every woman should have a right to abortion. But I'm so very grateful I never actually had to exercise this right. Hell, in my country I don't even have that right.

I also saw The Blind Side because it was on TV. In light of some of the performances I've seen for Fisti's Twice a Best Actress I can say that I've seen performances far less worthy than Bullock for the Oscar. But what the hell with the best picture nomination?

Here's an incredible photo of Amy Adams from her recent Annie Leibovitz shoot.

And here are Lana Del Rey's gorgeous new tracks for The Big Eyes

Let's talk about NBR, NYFCC and Satellite Awards nominations for a second.

You know if you are nominating things and Lost Stars is not among the things that you nominated, your nominations ain't worth shit.

I just want Mark to win something. For fuck sake, split everywhere and my favorites didn't get anything. Yes, yes, it's only 2 out of countless to come but can they really make this one exciting? 2 surprising wins in acting categories would go a long way, although I sense these surprises won't be where I would be most glad to see them - Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor.

The way I look at those nominations is just searching for Ruffalo finding out he is in and doing this:

then I'm out.

Speaking of - Parks and Recreation is coming back in January!

And Nick Offermanmay be joining Fargo in second season!

Wonderful news - Lars von Trier claims he will no longer make films. Apparently von Trier can only make movies when he is drunk out of his ass (to surprise of no one) and now he is going through rehab for his alcohol and drugs addiction. He says that since he is clean he can't make films. Well this is great because if he really drunk a bottle of vodka a day rehab does seem like a good idea. Also no more crappy, women-hating movies from this creep.

Holy shit have you guys seen that Terminator: Genisys trailer? It looks so bad. Somewhere Jorah is seriously embarrassed.

In other news the next Bond movie is gonna be called Spectre. It's gonna feature Monica Bellucci and in the least surprising casting news in the history - Christoph Waltz as the villain. An European actor with an Oscar (actually two). Of course he gets cast in this role.

Helena Bonham Carter and Rebecca Hall joined the cast of that TV series Steve Mcqueen is making for HBO. This is great news.
