Again, F The Academy Awards
I can’t believe I got up at 5:30 this morning for nothing. Bob Iger gets up at 5:30 every morning to hang upside-down from a bar like a bat. I’m not a whack job like he is – I sleep until a normal hour. But…

JESUS CHRIST! Who the fuck do you have to blow or bribe in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to getting a stupid Golden Globe nomination?! These nominations are abominations. “Birdman” – seriously? “The Imitation Game”? What the hell is a Benedict Cumberbatch! Is that a…
Good afternoon. The title pretty much says it all. THIS SHIT IS REAL! So come on, Comic Con geeks – let your heads commence to explode. THIS IS A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT and a financial commitment unparalleled in the history of Hollywood (and way more impressive…
