NATHANIEL R in Corey Haim, Lady Bird, The Greatest Showman, Twitter

It's time for another roundup of amusing or provocative or pleasant brevities via twitter. Let's just jump in shall we with Bette Midler telling a funny truth as she winds down her Hello Dolly Broadway run (in mid January Bernadette Peters replaces her) 

The SAG Award presenters will all be women this year! Which I think is great. Unfortunately, though, because it’s Hollywood, the trophy will probably still be a guy flashing his dick. pic.twitter.com/uJd13yjSsV

More after the jump including The Greatest Showman, The Lost Boys, Lady Bird, Anne Bancroft and more... 

Corey Haim in THE LOST BOYS is genuinely great.

LADY BIRD

Breaking News: LADY BIRD is still phenomenal and I wouldn't mind a 5hr cut following the stories of all the minor characters.

Mentally mapping the characters of Last Jedi on to Lady Bird, help. (Luke = Laurie Metcalf, saving the galaxy = going to NYU, it’s all very clear)

RANDOMNESS

We need to talk about how all movies are too long.

I am never not thinking about this anecdote that Frank Langella includes in his trashy memoir as a means to disparage Anne Bancroft when, in all honesty, nothing has ever made me love her more: pic.twitter.com/mdgIDiITil

You know why most film makers are liberal? Because our job is to make you care about situations & people. And to do that, we think a lot about that kind of shit & channel it into our work. You don’t care about other people? This is not the job for you.

Sex is great, but have you ever done that thing where the scissors slide all the way across the wrapping paper?

 SUPER NEW YORK SPECIFIC BUT TRUE

 

During a time of year when THE LAST JEDI, THE GREATEST SHOWMAN, and PHANTOM THREAD will all be in theaters, I've never missed the Ziegfeld more

 AND I THINK THESE GREATEST SHOWMAN TWEETS ARE INSTRUCTIVE BECAUSE LOOK HOW CONTRADICTORY THEY ARE. MUSICALS ARE ALWAYS A ROSCHARCH TEST

 

It’s fun imagining the ghost of P.T. Barnum watching The Greatest Showman and mumbling, “What…the…fuck?”

THE GREATEST SHOWMAN is a thoroughly demented Walmart-ready musical that's as subtle as a circus and twice as loud. P.T. Barnum would have *loved* it. my review: https://t.co/3LVxgVm4cD pic.twitter.com/hNTQM7oxkn

Questioning all kinds of things about myself because of how badly I want to see The Greatest Showman

— J. David Alvarez (@DavidAlvareeezy) December 22, 2017

If my desire to see The Greatest Showman were any less, it would implode in on itself, go supernova, and annihilate humanity

— Hal Rudnick (@halrudnick) December 22, 2017

I just saw "The Greatest Showman" & I am still blown away. It was absolutely incredible & one of my favorite movies I've seen. I was grinning the entire time & will probably see it 5 more times when it comes out in theaters. GO SEE IT

— Colton Haynes (@ColtonLHaynes) December 15, 2017

If you play 'The Other Side’ from the GREATEST SHOWMAN soundtrack on December 31st at 11:57:06 Zac Efron & Hugh Jackman will end a long pause & start singing together "don't you wanna get away" right as the clock strikes midnight. Start off your new year right.
