Here's some of the flocks from last night's BAFTA's plus bitchy comments from The Guardian -- (link) - LMS Feb 14, 07:06 15
- on first glance I thought Bonnie Wright was Julianne Moore. -- nm - mafic Feb 14, 07:29
- Tilda Swinton needs a stylist, badly. -- nm - MDH Feb 14, 07:10 13
  - She does her thing. Her thing is to be deeply weird. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 07:41 1
    - and having just seen the photo, I think she looks surprisingly understated and elegant. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 07:46
  - I don't mind how she dresses, after all, she's Tilda Swinton. -- nm - LMS Feb 14, 07:33
  - She and Conan could save money and share one. -- nm - Ender Feb 14, 07:27
  - I want her to play Effie in the Hunge Games -- nm - Epiphany Feb 14, 07:25 8
    - Nooo... Miranda Richardson just needs to tweak her Rita Skeeter back a notch and she's there. -- nm - TFox Feb 14, 07:28 5
      - I'm kind of all about Kristin Chenoweth for that role.l -- nm - Kim Pine Feb 14, 07:29 4
        
        Kristin Scott Thomas? -- nm - LMS Feb 14, 07:39
        
        I picture Effie older. Maybe it's the voice the audiobook reader uses for her. -- nm - Amy Feb 14, 07:35
        
        You know who else might be able to do it if she didn't try so damn hard? Jane Krakowski. - TFox Feb 14, 07:33 1
        
        (she already looks like the Capitol did her plastic surgery.) -- nm - TFox Feb 14, 07:41
    - "Hung Games" is a totally different movie. -- nm - nubby Feb 14, 07:26

[deleted] 13
- Could you spoil me on how it ends? -- nm - Ender Feb 14, 07:07 9
  - [deleted] 7
    - Thanks, that's exactly what I expected. -- nm - Ender Feb 14, 07:19
    - Hmm (spoils) - Inigo Feb 14, 07:17 5
      - *spoils* - Ender Feb 14, 07:23 1
        
        True. (spoils) - Inigo Feb 14, 07:35
      - Really? (spoils) - pmb Feb 14, 07:20 2
        
        *spoils* - Ender Feb 14, 07:25
        
        You're right. (spoils) - Inigo Feb 14, 07:22
  - I didn't see it but I'm gonna say they went with it. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 14, 07:10
- This defines "The Other Guys" for me -- nm - MDH Feb 14, 07:07 2
  - It's very clear to me that when they wrote "Pineapple Express" they were ironically very very high. - Mel Profit Feb 14, 07:09 1
    - yeah, but then seth rogen is pretty much always high. -- nm - mafic Feb 14, 07:19
I was surprised to see AF get album of the year. That right...AF. I just made them fundamental! - HdnAgnda Feb 14, 07:06
nmboblique - Hotkiss Feb 14, 07:06 1

My wife *loved* Black Swan prompting me to ask "Any particular part?" - HdnAgnda Feb 14, 07:04 1
- I think she will win. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 14, 07:26
gaga -- nm - Andie Feb 14, 07:03 38
- I love that she did red carpet interviews from inside an egg. - Mel Profit Feb 14, 07:04 35
  - she does plenty of drugs, she's admitted as much, but she at least has the sense not to get caught (or at least keep the photos out of the media). -- nm - mafic Feb 14, 07:15 5
    - honestly, she's probably like most people in that way. - TFox Feb 14, 07:17 4
      - yup. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 07:47
      - LOL!! I know right?! -- nm - Epiphany Feb 14, 07:27
      - Right. - Mel Profit Feb 14, 07:22
      - This IM is all sorts of win. -- nm - MDH Feb 14, 07:18
  - meh. - znufrii Feb 14, 07:08 26
    - i thought it reeked of silly fun. -- nm - Diva Feb 14, 07:13 11
      - I appreciate the ridiculousness of it, I'm just not entirely sure she does. -- nm - mafic Feb 14, 07:18
      - If she hadn't had her handlers trying to explain how important this was for her, etc. on the red carpet, and instead had just gone in without a word - znufrii Feb 14, 07:14 9
        
        oh come on. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 07:49
        
        ph plz - i didn't watch all that crap. I'm too busy. I just heard about it and it made me laugh. -- nm - Diva Feb 14, 07:31
        
        but if Banksy arrives at the Oscars in an egg, it'll be genius. - TFox Feb 14, 07:20 6
        
        Franco should -- nm - Beaker Feb 14, 07:22
        
        more like it'd be shamelessly derivative now... -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 07:21 4
        
        derivative? hardly! he's commenting on the artificiality of pop music by repurposing the fragile eggshell for his own art! - TFox Feb 14, 07:22 3
        
        sorry. - znufrii Feb 14, 07:23 2
        
        damnit, znu. - TFox Feb 14, 07:24 1
        
        kinda - znufrii Feb 14, 07:26
    - [deleted] 3
      - If by this you're trying to imply that she and I share that characteristic, you're way off the mark - znufrii Feb 14, 07:28 2
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        only in that the former is a common symptom of the latter. -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 07:37
    - but it's what people want from her. -- nm - Andie Feb 14, 07:11 9
      - Any gay on the fence about her new song, was sold by the egg stunt. Gaga/her management have their A game on all the time. -- nm - MDH Feb 14, 07:13 1
        
        noted: all gays love trannys in eggs. - TFox Feb 14, 07:16
      - People want stupid things sometimes. - znufrii Feb 14, 07:12 6
        
        i think she's injected a whole lot more wow-factor and total fun into the music scene. -- nm - Andie Feb 14, 07:28 5
        
        yes. Bring it on! -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 07:50
        
        Kanye West is now mad at you that you are not attributing this to him. -- nm - TFox Feb 14, 07:34
        
        *ding* -- nm - Diva Feb 14, 07:33
        
        [deleted]
        
        And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 07:30
  - I haven't seen any of it yet, but I'm sure she looked better IN the egg. - Jim Feb 14, 07:06 1
    - they were wise. her outfit was actually flattering, they lit her from the neck down, and put like dark makeup on her face. - TFox Feb 14, 07:18
- Kylie -- nm - Epiphany Feb 14, 07:03
- googoo -- nm - Beaker Feb 14, 07:03
