If I could have a superpower, it would be telekinetic regulation of the ambient temperature. (This I discovered when I was stuck in a hot movie theater for hours last night.)
talk amongst yourselves
question of the day: Just what the heck is a Brooklyn Decker, anyway?
A Brooklyn Decker is an egg cream soda that uses hot fudge instead of regular chocolate syrup. No, wait, it’s an obsolete term for a ball hit into the upper levels at a Dodgers game, back when they were still a New York team. No, wait…
question of the day: Why do fans make Lego movies?
What’s the appeal of them? And why do we like them so much?
question of the day: What is your favorite post-credits stinger scene?
In honor of the fact that somone has finally started a Twitter feed to aggregate news of extra scenes worth sitting through a film’s credits for, and the fact that Battleship has a tag scene…
question of the day: What do you think of the Katniss Everdeen Barbie?
Would you buy it? For yourself? For a little girl or boy?
question of the day: Has the era of the female hero arrived?
Katniss Everdeen. Snow White. Lisbeth Salander. Are we finally starting to see heroine’s journeys?
question of the weekend: How do you commemorate the arrival of spring?
Some people mark Easter and/or Passover as religious or cultural markers. Perhaps springtime means hauling the bike or the barbecue or the lawn furniture out of storage to add to enjoyment of the outdoors. What do you do?
question of the day: What things have you wanted to learn more about or try yourself after seeing it in a movie?
Like how Hunger Games fans are taking up archery. (Hey, it’s better than setting your prom dress on fire.)
question of the day: What is the appeal of Madame Tussauds?
I just don’t get it. Do people feel like they’ve actually seen a celebrity in person if they stand near a waxwork replica?
question of the day: How soon is too soon to start talking about next year’s Oscars?
The Hunger Games! Oscar contender! Never mind that it’s only April! *sigh*
