  1. EXXXXXCUSE ME How the hell is this Steve’s fault!? Steve Rogers has never done anything wrong In this life*** omg. I GET that it might be frustrating to watch your fave acting badly, but Wanda is a grown woman. She is making her own decisions. Is it gonna be messy between now and MoM? Oh, yes. But that’s the fun. That’s part of her journey. We can’t just dismiss it. *** this is a complete lie, we all know Steve is That Bitch and it’s why he is iconic, but we’re going to ignore that for a while.
  2. FEBRUARY SCHEDULE When thinking of the schedule for this month, I really wanted to focus on romantic comedies and romances, because I had told @Plain Old Tele after watching The Man Who Would Be King "no more boy movies." LOL. SOUNDER February 4, 2021 / 9:30PM EST In memoriam of Cicely Tyson, who passed away last week at the age of 96, we're going to watch her Academy Award nominated performance in Sounder from 1972. Tyson stars as Rebecca, a young mother carrying for her family and their farm while her husband is serving a prison sentence for stealing food. Her performance is quintessential "the quiet storm" and it's a masterclass. In an interview on the Turner Classic Movies cable channel, she recalled that she had been asked to test for a smaller role in the film and said she wanted to play the mother, Rebecca. She was told, “You’re too young, you’re too pretty, you’re too sexy, you’re too this, you’re too that, and I said, `I am an actress.’” THE LAST PICTURE SHOW February 6, 2021 / 2:00PM EST In memoriam of Cloris Leachman, who passed away last week at the age of 94, we're going to watch her Academy Award winning performance in The Last Picture Show. Us younger folks might remember her best as the crazy old broad on Dancing With the Stars, but she was actually a really great actress. The Last Picture Show is directed and written by Peter Bogdanovich. "In 1951, a group of high schoolers come of age in a bleak, isolated, atrophied North Texas town that is slowly dying, both culturally and economically." MOONSTRUCK February 10, 2021 / Wednesday 9:30PM EST SNAP. OUT. OF. IT. Here's the T. Over the last month I have rewatched all 12 seasons of RuPauls's Drag Race, plus 4 Seasons of All-Stars (LOL, NOT rewatching Season Three. I can't go through that TRAUMA again.) So, it's time for Cher! And Nic Cage! THE BODYGUARD February 13, 2021 / Saturday 2PM EST Our second "Music Icon Turns Actress" of the week is Whitney Houston in the Bodyguard. It's kind of hard to stress how iconic this experience is. It's a pure Whitney Vehicle at the height of her Power. Kevin Coster is blessed to be in her presence. PARIS BLUES February 17, 2021 / Wednesday 9:30PM EST There were a bunch of options for a romance with Sidney Poitier. I thought about Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, A Patch of Blue, or A Warm December. But I settled on Paris Blues which is set in Paris in the 1960's, and follows two American expatriate jazz musicians working in the city, and dating two American tourists. It also stars Diahann Caroll, Paul Newman, and Joanne Woodward. Paul and Joanne are married IRL, so it's kind of a two-for. TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT February 20, 2021 / Saturday 2PM EST A month of classic romances and no Bogie and Bacall. Never. This Howard Hawks film is Bacall's screen debut and the film she met Bogie on. BRIEF ENCOUNTER February 24, 2021 / Wednesday 9:30PM EST Often talked about as one the best romance films of all time, this entry by David Lean (who that? Wonder if he did anything after this?), follows a woman tempted to cheat on her husband. Based on a Noel Coward play. CARMEN JONES February 27, 2021 / Saturday 2:00PM EST A perfect segue to March, will be modeled after TCM's 31 Days of Oscar, Carman Jones stars Dorothy Dandridge as Carmen. For this role, she is the first African-American woman to be nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role,
  3. Also if we don’t get an All In The Family set next episode with the intro/theme song, I will revolt
  4. My current issue right now is that I do not care about Wanda or vision as characters at all. I am gagging over the gimmick. Like I am full on obsessed with Olsen and Bettany hamming it up in these old sitcom. The set design is on point. The costumes are amazing. The jokes are really offkilter and funny. It’s so good. And I do not give a shit about like the real world or whatever. Can we just fast forward to like Billy and Tommy is teenagers meeting Teddy 😂
  5. MODERATION: Since we have like 3500 MCU threads, I’m just gonna post this here in hopes that everyone sees it, so that I don’t have to post it like 3500 times individually and spam all the threads: When you’re talking about the MCU, please make sure that you’re talking specifically about that title in that thread. I.e; Dr Strange Thread is for Dr Strange. And if you want to reference any other property, especially if it isn’t out yet, please use the spoiler tags. I know that this is specifically a little difficult with Doctor Strange, where the Internet is convinced everyone under the sun is going to show up at some point. But just try and be mindful that people do tend to avoid spoilers, and we don’t want to accidentally Spoil anyone. Not everyone stays up-to-date on all the casting announcements. Thanks!
  6. You can totally drag this out for another six episodes. We’re only in 1960. Which means we’ve got like Five more decades of sitcom’s to play with.
  7. I screamed. I was so goddamn excited they made that choice. That’s cause Kevin never lets me down.
  8. My biggest Takeaway is that I love Kevin, And his complete confidence in his studios’s work. The chutzpah of that man. God, it’s good to be King I don’t know how many people are going to dig this on a week to week basis. That said, I am all over it. 😂😂😂😂😂 The aesthetics of the show are amazing. Like they even have the step down into the living room as they do on the Dick Van Dyke show. Everything about it is great. I also like how they’re not rushing anything. It’s fun. It’s a good amuse Bouche for the delicious meal that’s to come
  9. The fact that I don’t get tagged in this shit, it’s just downright offensive. It’s rude. 😘
  10. Moreover, it's an ensemble piece. You can totally sell it without him, and you can do a press tour without him. That said,
  11. Cloud Meeting is what you want!!!
  12. I just opened the room for John Ford's The Grapes of Wrath: Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/5423825182?pwd=T1VuUmJ5OVB1ZjRNQmNHRVpDQ3lkUT09 Meeting ID: 542 382 5182 Passcode: BOT You should come watch it, cause Ford, for all this faults, was a poet of the celluloid canvas: Also, fun fact: The title come from the Song "The Battle Hymn of The Republic". And if you've never seen Judy Garland perform that, well, here is it: She performed it two weeks after Kennedy was assassinated as a tribute to him.
  13. When I said AT&T was gonna sell off WB, This was not the path that I thought they take.
  14. But it’s really not dumb. Because she’s not lady Thor. She’s not female Thor. She’s Thor. So they can call him Odinson! That is ALSO his still his name. 😉
  15. He's not gonna be Thor in the movie though! He's probably gonna be Odinson! Jane Foster is THOR.
