Quick thing:   I am not going to be around for a bit. Non-Board Personal issues, and I need some time. I will get the emojis up for next weekend, and run the Cas of the Cas Games (Sign Up For Them! Play the Change). If you need anything big, PM me. Otherwise @XXR You Ok Annie and @ZeeSoh and @Eric Crowe got this covered.

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 t

 Shia has had many issues throughout the 2010s and even earlier I'm sure. I believe he got arrested at some point, that time he wore a paper bag on his head during a red-carpet premiere, etc. I'm glad Olivia Wilde stood her ground and fired him and hopefully we start seeing that happen more often when an actor/actress can't behave. Tbh I thought Shia was actually turning things around but it seems like it'll be a while before he gets his shit together.

It says in the article she has a "zero asshole policy" on her projects. That's what every filmmaker should have tbh.

It’s no big secret that I love Judy Garland.

 

I as far I am concerned, she is the only person who can sing “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.”  If you’ve only heard the recording, I highly suggest watching her film performance. Don’t just trust me.  As @Jake Gittes will tell you, it’s divine. 

 

Her character, Esther, sings it as a melancholy pick-me up to her kid sister, Tootie, as their family goes through a troubling holiday. (Fun Fact: the lyrics were actually darker, but Judy told Hugh Martin, the lyricist: “I am not singing that to a child!”)

 

This song always makes me cry, but this year it’s hitting just a little harder. To everyone out there:

 

“Someday soon we all will be together in a theater auditorium,
If the fates allow.
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow.
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now”

Song had a LOT of menaing when if came out in 1944, at the height or World War 2. when so many people wer ovreseas and in harm's way. I think the writers of the lyrics damn well knew this.
