It's that time of the week (the weekend!) when we groggily awaken and seek out bon mots rather than essays to amuse us. If you do the same these bite-sized morsels are just the ticket. In this week's roundup: Lea Michele, Nico Tortorella, Nicolas Winding Refn, Marvel's peak, Dory's acclaim, and more.
It's all after the jump...

For some reason I thought Lea Michele would be too young to know The Blue Lagoon but this made me smile so I force it upon you now. I wish she hadn't stuck with Glee so long. Imagine what her career could have been if she had branched out after Season 3 without "Rachel" so permanently affixed and pickled.
I just feel like life will be easier when Love & Friendship is on DVD & I can watch all of Sir James' (@newmanstings) scenes over & over

The apocalypse began when "article" became "think-piece."

Remember when "everyone is a critic" used to just be a thing people said?

It's hot enough out that I'm mad at anyone who isn't speaking in Tennessee Williams dialogue.

It's cute or whatever, but what explains such universal praise for FINDING DORY?

It feels like the direct-to-VHS Aladdin/Lion King sequels.
Who are these critics who get fabulously compensated for opinions they may have anyway? And why don't the studios want mine? Sad!

Best part about seeing THE NEON DEMON a 2nd time: The old woman walking out during the final scene yelling, "This movie is for SICK PEOPLE!"

And in case you missed it Younger's main heartthrob Nico Tortorella (who plays Sutton Foster's on again off again boyfriend and is super good on the show as well as super good looking but the latter is obvious if you have eyeballs) has come out as "sexually fluid" which in ye olden times was called bisexuality but "fuck labels" is the new hip thing, unless your label of preference is "fluid" so I guess now we're at LGBTQIAF.
Anyway congrats for being you, Nico!
