  •  Welcome to the Brave New World where Leonardo DiCaprio has an Oscar. 
  • My work has been less shitty and I feel all around wonderful. Wow, is this related to this? Is there some sort of cosmic balance being restored thanks to him finally winning?
  • And just like that 2015 Oscar season is over and it's soon gonna be the time to start drafting another Best and Worst list. It's March already. I have only seen Deadpool out of 2016 movies. My God, is that right? And no there is still no release date for The Witch set here yet.
  •  I watched Cowboys & Aliens. Yes, voluntarily. It was not a complete disaster but I cannot imagine how much weed Harrison must have smoked on that set to get through that movie
  • On the plus side, he looked beautiful. The horse-riding, grumpiness, pistol and hat, loved it all.
  • I started watching K-19 2 days back and I'm still on 40th minute of it. Had it not been for Harrison running around in a uniform it would be unwatchable. 
  • I am actually running out of movies with him. And that's quite amazing because my pace of catching up with the ones I haven't seen before is constantly stalled with the countless rewatches of Six Days, Seven Nights and Sabrina. It's just...how do you top that?
  • Well, with Witness. But I fear seeing it again might kill me.
  • Apparently there is gonna be a deleted scene with Han on TFA blu ray. I am both happy and I also feel like this is just throwing salt in everyone's wounds after that massacre that occurred right before our eyes. Don't. Ever. Do. This. To. Indy.
  • If you think Tom looking amazing at the Oscars was all that God gave us this week, you are wrong:
  • Somebody needs to stop this man.
  • Sylvester Stallone's brother had a complete meltdown on his twitter after the ceremony. I mean there is no reason to go after Mark Rylance, but Stallone was robbed.
  • Then Stallone went on to apologize to Rylance but got his name wrong.
  • Still, man, did Michael Rapaporttop that. Oh my God. That was my exact reaction too, but when Joe Biden walked on that stage.
  • And getting back to the Oscar night for a moment:
  • LOVED Keaton's walk to the stage:
  • I think we can all agree Tom was an absolute class act during the show:


  • Also this picture --->
  • It's like he is getting him pumped before big fight.
  • I don't know her but I love her - Chrissy Teigen. Her expression to Stacey Dash thing was amazing and it's not the first time she gave us such a great expression.
  •  Inarittu's bitch facehere kinda speaks for itself. And what it speaks of is 'Tom you should have punched me in the dick again, right there and then".
  • Mark Ruffalohad a great time at the Oscars. Also this is wonderful. I really am very happy that while in my opinion the film didn't hit hard enough the cast and the crew is bringing more awarness to that horrible subject.
  • I still don't get what the big deal about Jacob Tremblay's dad is but this tweet had me in tears. 
  • Oh yeah Oscar night I was hammered beyond belief. Which is good because that Indiana Jones music/Joe Biden moment would have killed me if I was sober. I mean Leslie Knope would be thrilled but me? I cannot believe they did that. How do you play Indiana Jones music for someone else? How do you not have Ford during the Oscars? I'm just so appalled. JJ the sadist Abrams was there, the droids were there. But he wasn't? Ugh. UGH. 
  • Someone hold me, please.
  • We mustn't overlook what happened during Spirit Awards:
  •  I think missing on that Oscar nom is gonna be one of the best things that happened to Idris. He is landing gigs left and right, he got so many awards this season and it's better to not be nominated and have people go 'you were so much better than all the nominated actors!' than actually be nominated or even win and later people resent those accolades (they often do) in the long run.
  • And here's Gustav during Oscar day:
  •  Also I had a non-shitty week at work so 1. I'm thankful 2. it means it will be terrible next week. Let's enjoy this evening of peace. And Ford.
  • Here's Ian McShane not giving a flying fuck about HBO and Game of Thrones secrecy. Absolutely glorious. Always a legend.
  • Interview website has a great interview Shyamalanana did with Anya Taylor-Joy of The Witch. What a girl. I love her. There is so much joy, optimism and passion in her words. And she loves dogs!
  • So...I should probably research what Dark Tower is, yes? I mean I know it's by King (right?) and they have been talking about adapting it for ages and now it is happening? With Elba and McCounghey and I love them both, so....maybe someone in the comment section can enlighten me with brief what's what?
  • Here is the mentality of SJW this week -  "Let's boycott the Oscars! Let's shit on one of the few successful actresses of color few days after that!"
  • I'm referring to the hate Zoe Saldana is receiving for playing Nina Simone. Why the hate, I quote - "she is not black enough". Saldana is one of the few successful actresses of color. What exactly is that hate campaign against her going to accomplish? The film lead by actress of color being boycotted or ignored. It's madness. I understand it's upsetting she had to use make up to darken her skin in order to look more like Simone, but think why she was cast. They don't look for resemblance first. They look for someone who will bring people to the cinema. And Saldana was in Avatar and a Marvel flick. Of course she was considered first because she is successful. It's about money in Hollywood. And frankly the level of nastiness she received:
  • is just...wrong. Sure in the perfect world they would cast someone who first and foremost resembles the real person. But it's not a perfect world. And trashing Zoe is not gonna improve anything. 
  • I mean Jesus Christ, if Tropic Thunder was released today RDJ would get more hate than when he shat in his co-star's trailer back in the 80's. That's a true story.
  • Reached season 7 of Entourage. Yep, it is going downhill but it's still funny. And Walsh is back! Last we saw him he was lashing out in Cannes. Love this guy.
  • Some news - they are remaking Suspiria with Tilda Swinton. Not bad so far? Let me piss in your corn flakes - Dakota Johnson is playing lead.
  • WB is getting desperate. They must have tortured Cavill for hours and yell at him to be interesting or at least mildly amusing on Kimmel's skit. And then they sent him out there.
  • Cavill succeeded. I am impressed. I mean you can see he is exhausted trying to emote, but he is doing it, damn it.
  • He probably went into a coma for few days after such effort.
  • Still Affleck stole that show with that "fuck off!" in fake Batman voice.
  • There's a new spot that is not terrible.
  • But to restore the balance we got some news from EW article that Steven in particular will hate - Jena Malone's scenes were cut from theatrical version of the movie.
  • I'm not impressed at all with Ghostbusters trailer. It didn't have a single truly funny moment. What it did have however was plenty of moments where we were supposed to laugh but didn't. There is nothing more embarrassing than watching a moment that you know the writers wanted to make you laugh at and it doesn't accomplish that. Like that purple wig thing? The hope is that this is just a bad trailer - I mean compare the trailer for Spy to the actual movie. The trailer was so-so, the film was absolutely hysterical. I love Melissa so I really hope it's gonna be good.
