Why is no one acknowledging the debt the post-Brazilian-restaurant scene in Bridesmaids owes to Charlotte’s attack of Montezuma’s Revenge in Sex and the Movie?

Best Picture Nominees, Ranked

dpesick:

I’ve now seen all the Best Picture Nominees, and here they are, ranked, in my opinion, offered without commentary, and please tell me why I’m wrong:

1. Hugo

2. Tree of Life

3. War Horse

4. The Descendants

5. Midnight in Paris

6. The Artist

7. Moneyball

8. The Help

9. Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Oh, if you insist:

1) War Horse [YES. This is an uninspiring bunch of movies and I really loved that damn horse.] 2) The Help 3) Tree of Life 4) Moneyball 5) The Descendants 6) The Artist 7) Hugo 8) Midnight in Paris. Didn’t see: Extremely Loud.

Basically, from “Tree of Life” on down it’s movies I thought were not that great, so don’t yell at me about Hugo vs. The Descendants vs. The Artist because: if you say so.

"SNL" prediction

dandaddario:

“Whitney, I had a lot of fun with you over the years. But I hope everyone out there knows it was all out of love. We all loved you, Whitney, and we hope you’re up there tonight laughing. And we’re gonna have a great show! Sleigh Bells is here!”

—Maya Rudolph’s monologue like four hours from now

Reblogging so this exists somewhere should Dan ever want to delete it, which he won’t because it’s totally coming true.

@joereid: “Q for the group: If you were doing a group karaoke of Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Little Lies,’ would you want the Stevie part or the Lindsey part?”

@joereid: “(Stevie: ‘Tell me lieeeeeeees…’ / Lindsey: ‘TELL ME TELL ME LIES!’)

- - - -

A VAST majority of the responses are saying “Lindsey” and I don’t know what to do with this information.

Robyn/Whitney - Dancing in Houston

That straight vocal track from How I Will I Know everyone passed around this weekend got put into this awesome Robyn track cause the internet knows what Mikey like.

I just listened to this and I swear my heart grew 4 sizes that day and then overflowed.

I mean.

oh, this is just perfect <3 <3

My eyes were like that THX tarsir just now.

That’s right. Your dashboard is just one big echo chamber of this song right now AND IT SHOULD BE.
