questions
question of the weekend: What is the most romantic pop song ever?

question of the day: What comic book that has never been adapted for the big screen deserves that opportunity?

question of the day: What is your favorite foodie movie, or foodie scene in a movie?

question of the day: What is the most iconic piece of Hollywood clothing?
Is it Marilyn Monroe’s white dress? Dorothy’s red slippers? Charlie Chaplin’s hat? Something else?
