#1 Dang, missed another one. I would have sworn this was Hollywood and not The Bee.

#3 SteveS, the tell was Lena Dunham. She's old news.

No one would cast her in a film today. She'd be lucky to get a bit role in one of those gazillions of Netflix made-for-data-mining throwaways.

#6 "Aye, fight, and you may die. Run, and you may live another day being oppressed by heteronormative gender constructs," she yells. "

That is a brilliant line.

#7 Walked in thinking Bee.

Walked out laughing still. They put up great headlines, but the brilliance is that more often than not the in-line is fantastic.

#8 Too easy

Not if you have been following the devolution of the Star Wars and Ghostbusters franchises. As for the "starring Lena DumbHam" part, I could totally see Obama-tainted Netflix doing this.

#9 maybe. But she's still a white girl.
Zero 'n' Mike would not be proud of a lead actor with so little melanin.

A valid point

#11 There is zero substance to Zero's sweetheart gig w Netflix. He's not "producing" anything that anyone would bother to watch.

His $68m contract was a straightforward payoff for 8 years of ensuring the bogus policy of "net neutrality," without which profit-less NFLX would collapse overnight.
