It's our silly imaginary hang with celebs game. So would you rather
... go for a cookie run with Juliette Lewis? ... take piano lessons with Hailee Steinfeld? ... teach Garrett Dillahunt how to shave? ...paint fake freckles on your face with Busy Philipps? ... watch a Kristin Scott Thomas movie with Kristin Scott Thomas (so meta) from the wings? ... do Avengers cosplay with Mark Ruffalo? ... commune with owls and Kim Cattral? ...bathe in mud with Shailene Woodley?
Pictures after the jump to help you make this CRUCIAL choice.
Chris here. Are you ready for another acapella round of pop mashups and "pitch" puns? Anna Kendrick and the rest of the Barden Bellas will be back for a third trip to the stage for this Christmas's Pitch Perfect 3. And we just got out first glimpse of what fun is in store with a first teaser trailer.
Except this trailer looks very little like what we've loved in the past. Instead of musical numbers, we get hints of action sequences and icky jokes at timeliness like Rebel Wilson in a "Make American Eat Again" hat - looks like we might be headed for the pitfalls of "a sequel means we must go bigger" syndrome. Where is the charm? Where is the heart? Where are the TUNES?
Perhaps worst of all, it looks like they will be sidelining Hailee Steinfeld after her young songwriter livened up the second installment with the pop ballad "Flashlight" - I guess the Bellas are back to preexisting music full stop based on what their competition says about them in this trailer. Or maybe the film will just be reliving its global plot points from that last go around.
You can't blame the film for not spoiling the chosen tracks just yet and since that's a major part of the joy of these films, we'll hold out on a full Yes No Maybe So treatment. But needless to say this first look is... suspicious. Have a look for yourself and tell us your thoughts. Also: what musical artist would you like to see the group cover this time?
Here's Jose with best looks from the 2016 Academy Awards...
And on Oscar Sunday Meryl said "let there be fashion", and then there was fashion.
The 2010's should not only be remembered for being the decade in which the greatest living actress earned her record-breaking 20th nomination, but also as the decade when she found a red carpet style that fit her iconoclastic image as both the Grand Dame of American cinema and someone who wants the world to think she "woke up like dis". In 2017 she even had her very first fashion feud (paging Ryan Murphy) when she had a PR battle with couture supervillain Karl Lagerfeld over a Chanel dress that was to be worn by no one (perhaps we will see Nicole wear it at Cannes someday?) In the end Meryl showed up in a statement-making Elie Saab couture creation in deep regal blue that combined pants with a ballgown, perhaps a nod to Hillary and the ultimate dig at T**** who believes there is only one way for women to "dress at work"?
PS: She also forgave Karl.
Following in Meryl's magnanimity this year I present you my favorite looks from the Oscar red carpet unranked...
