LOL.
After the jump more curated short-attention-span amusements for you weekly skimming pleasure. Social media is fun if you take it in small doses (and not too seriously). Tweets follow featuring Catherine Zeta-Jones, Rock Hudson, Roma jokes, suggestions to replace Kevin Hart at the Oscars, and selected reactions to the Avengers: Infinity War teaser and the Globe nominations...

KEVIN HART IS NO LONGER HOSTING THE OSCARS DUE TO HOMOPHOBIC JOKES THAT HE WON'T APOLOGIZE FOR. SUGGESTIONS FOR NEW REPLACEMENTS?
The popular oscar and this kevin hart clusterfuck is what happens when you deny Laura Dern the Academy presidency

Melissa McCarthy should so obviously be the Oscars host that I'm irritated having to even say it.

Get you an Oscar host who would come out looking like this pic.twitter.com/Y4yEk4lQwz

I think it's clear who should host the Oscars: Liza Minelli in a 10 ft pink scarf, backed by a kick line. pic.twitter.com/GcghykOV2s

AVENGERS INFINITY WAR TRAILER
Avengers 4 is titled "Endgame" and may feature the Hawkeye as Ronin storyline w/ scenes in Tokyo.

Taylor Swift's 2018 music video for her song "End Game" also has scenes in Tokyo.
Thus, the MCU must exist within the larger Taylor Swift Cinematic Universe. In this essay I will pic.twitter.com/lMS2T4hNVB

I guess the emotion I most relate to in the Avengers trailer is the sheer excitement I would feel if Paul Rudd showed up at my front door
