The truth is Americans love basic vanilla gurls (see: TayLORD, Katy Perry if we ignore her album sales, Local Ani back 10 years ago, etc.) Thank goodness she is local. I only take global gurls seriously as we all know.

So true. Just give JFad a more interesting face and genuine personality and her success will plummet.

I think I've given up on Boyhood, for good. I'm at the 30 minutes mark and still bored to tears.
What do I do?

He also did Holy Motors, probably the best 2012 movie.

We're screening Elephant by Gus Van Sant this week, do you think I should go (if you've seen it)?

I'm not lying. Honest to God. And the longevity purposes thing is what it is, they wanted to be able to make more movies, have Peter first, then Miles.
RDJ was definitely involved. In fact, I've been hearing Peter and Tony Stark are going to have a lot of screen time together in upcoming MCU films. They're both geniuses and they're both cocky smart-mouths, not to mention that Peter sides with him in Civil War, so they compliment each other very well as characters. I hope that's exciting to hear. They might not even do flashbacks. I honestly don't think anyone wants to be REMINDED of an origin story, we've had 2 exhausting ones already. MAYBE on March 5th, which is when the "big" news drops. Most likely in mid-March to early-April though.
Feige was HEAVILY involved in the casting process and still is as he and Sony are still going over things. As a matter fact, one of the only reasons they liked O'Brien was because of the tone Marvel wanted to go with for Spidey this time around. Which BTW, is comedic, light-hearted, fun. Not emotional, dramatic, or wimpy. Oh, and a lot of actors performed well I guess, don't really know about that though. What I do know is, that the reason they began to lean towards Dylan instead of Lerman was mostly because of his sarcastic, snarky side. Sony and Marvel figured Lerman was a much better dramatic actor, which wasn't really what the tone they wanted or looked for. Well, Marvel had alternate versions of the script for CW with Spider-Man in it, so it depends on which one they go with. But truthfully, I don't think Black Panther will be sidelined, he'll still have an important role, so will Spider-Man.

Hm. This leaker has a good track record. Hope he is right.

Sam is overexposed and getting overplayed here. I am ready for the backlash. Troye is more a niche artist (luv him). 
Adele also ***** all over Sam. He will never

It wasn't all that slept on. It did well at the box office. But it was way too eager to please. Not bad but last year there were two better movies about food: Chef and The Lunchbox.

I think I just truly loved the story line too much, although it was cliché at times. Helen Mirren + Om Puri, a golden combination.

Also, Troye Sivan can't even hold a note. He's not a bad singer, but he's certainly not a good singer. At least Sam Smith is talented. Stanning for Troye Sivan is basically stanning for good production. Might as well stan for a white DJ.

Harvard: The Sound of Gaga: An Oscars Reinvention
Quote:
Lady Gaga delivered the greatest proof of her remarkable reinvention at the 87th Annual Academy Awards on February 22, when she took to the stage to perform a medley of songs from The Sound of Music in honor of the beloved film’s 50th anniversary. When Scarlett Johansson leaned into the microphone and announced the act, the group that I was watching the show with audibly balked. Lady Gaga singing Julie Andrews’s songs? the crowd seemed to murmur. Who does she think she is?
Lady Gaga was singing for a highly skeptical audience. For one of the first times since she was a newcomer in the music industry, she had to prove herself. She had her reputation to lose (remember Carrie Underwood’s widely panned turn as Maria von Trapp?) if she did not approach the majesty of Julie Andrews in the eyes of millions of fiercely loyal Sound of Music fans across the globe. She did not have to risk this.
But she did.
