+ Why Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom should win at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.

+ Games still haven’t got bisexuality right.

  1. i want a princess diana movie where kristen plays every single part, charles, the queen, william, harry, james hewitt, camilla, etc, eddie murphy style, please make this happen for me.

  4. Everytime I see Ammonite in the title of something I always get excited thinking it’s going to be about Nicola Griffith’s Ammonite and then I’m always let down that it’s not a scifi adventure romp set on an entirely female planet. Like, I’m sure the British historical drama has its merits but it’s not space lesbians.
