I’ve ravamped my presence on Pinterest…

He’s Batman: fan shock as handsome square-jawed actor cast as iconic superhero. Also: Ben Affleck could not possibly care less what you think of him.

Mortal Instruments: City of Bones — we still have no idea what it’s about either, except some more damn teenagers who can do magic, apparently.

Disney’s Planes: Really? This is what we’ve come to? Christ Almighty. *sigh* Plus: What next? Bikes? Boats? just kill us now. Special Investigation: Planes, Cars, Turbo: all the same film? we look at the evid– oh, fuck it, what’s the point?

R.I.P.D.: How Hollywood sells us the same flicks over and over again. The New Grizzled Action Hero (same as the old grizzled action hero). Special Report: Tentpoles — how putting all your eggs in one basket become “good business”…

Tonto-versy! Johnny Depp now just prank-calling it in? Special Report: White Men in Hollywood: How Are They Doing? And more!

Why American conservatives love Superman (apparently they don’t realize he’s an illegal immigrant); the Henry Cavill workout; and more.

How to explain Benedict Cumberbatch to the uninitiated, and more.
For your reading pleasure…
