Ten Little Linkies

Coming Soon Lin-Manuel Miranda composing an original musical for Sony Animation? Who at Disney lost their grip on him? Mistake!
MNPP Chris Pratt got all banged up
NY Post emotional advice $2
/Film a La La Land scene recreated in Austin Texas

IndieWire reviews Cate Blanchett in Manifesto, a new art film installation 
Variety Ryan Reynolds gets his star on the Walk of Fame and talks about the Green Lantern valley before the Deadpool peak 

List-Mania
Daily Beast Jen Yamato is apparently feeling some rage. Her super violent top ten includes Green Room, The Witch, and Train to Busan
Tracking Board best of everything with lots of Lin-Manuel Miranda and blockbuster hits
Variety names worst movies of the year including right-wing fact-free propaganda "documentaries" and movies you forgot came out this year like The Brothers Grimsby and Nina -- unfortunately they also slam Tate Donovan right and left for his direction of Girl on the Train. Leave Tate Donovan alone, Variety. He doesn't direct and he's in Manchester by the Sea this year, not that thriller. Editor? Anyone?
AP's top ten has the usual suspects La La Land and Moonlight, a few documentaries but mixes it up with The Edge of Seventeen

Passengers receives DREADFUL early reviews
Lawrence is officially out of the race
Collective sigh of relief

Passengers getting bad reviews? Called it. Still want to watch it, however, if just for Jennifer Lawrence. She makes even bad films fun.

Pratt's hawking his chichis as promotional material sure beats that generic poster.

Which is getting worse reviews Passengers or Collateral Beauty? To think they were in the Oscar conversation before anyone saw them.

Regarding Passengers; EVERYONE called it, beyaccount! -
you just had to take one look at the trailer to determine that it would suck.

But yeah, collective sigh of relief (times two) that Passengers is shit - I hate both J-Law and Pratt so much.
About time Chris Pratt got banged up!

Actually, Nathaniel, Tate Donovan IS a director - he's directed a lot of bad TV.

That Variety pan of Kate Plays Christine is embarrassing. He doesn't even get the movie.

Tate Taylor's direction in The Girl of the Train was mediocre, but worst of the year? There's been so much worse.

Loving Jen Yamato's Top 10. 2016 has been a wonderful year for horrors/thrillers and her list reflects that without excluding more mainstream choices. And what a wonderful year that mainstream choices include American Honey and Moonlight.

If you love horror and haven't found a way to see Train to Busan, you're missing out. Amazing. Yamato's description and praise is spot on.
