When Steven Spielberg made The Post, the real-life story about how the Washington Post broke the story of the infamous Pentagon Papers, he recruited an all-star cast. While Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks were the top-liners, the ensemble also included Bob Oedenkirk, Sarah Paulson, Bradley Whitford, Alison Brie, Bruce Greenwood, and David Cross. It was literally Spielberg's dream team of actors for the film; as he told us when the movie was released, all of the actors in the film were his first choices for the roles.
The Post is available on DVD, Blu-Ray, 4K, and most digital platforms.
hayden christensen coming back to star wars has been the absolute highlight of the past two years and it has been a pleasure and joy to watch him in two shows both with little screentime but incredible performances of every version of anakin skywalker/darth vader and get his well deserved flowers from the fandom…hayden IS and ALWAYS WILL BE anakin and no one else could have done it thank you thank you thank you
another Voyager thought: Seven of Nine should have stayed looking fucked up for WAY longer, she looked fantastic, and lots of decisions were instead made with the goal of turning her design conventionally sexy As Fast As Possible, but one of the most egregious decisions was her hairstyle. From a horny director standpoint, you want the cyborg hottie to have that shiny, sleek blonde updo... but from an in-universe, in-character perspective? What a mean and unnecessary thing to do, to give someone long hair who doesn't remember ever having had hair at all, and who's already had so many more invasive changes made to her body. You're telling me she's still getting used to having new, like, organs and stuff, and she also has to learn what conditioner and hairspray are? I'm not sure I could give myself the hairstyle she has, and I've had long hair for a lot of my life. I think it was mean of the Doctor to do that to her. Justice and peach fuzz for Seven. Or a pixie cut at the most.
If they wanted the character to have long hair, because Jeri Ryan hot with long hair (difficult to argue with), Seven of Nine choosing to grow out her hair as she gets more comfortable with her identity as a human could have been really interesting, and would have fit her character arc! But that takes time, and means she spends more time not being sexy, and that's unacceptable.
somehow enchanted by the detail that odo specifically gives himself (makes himself into??) a latte. he's thought about this. he has Colour Coordinated.
i have NEVER understood those fics where anakin turns 18 and SUDDENLY everything’s different between them and obi wan is suddenly attracted to anakin, UNTIL i watched hayden christensen in “goosebumps” (1997) and then immediately after in “are you afraid of the dark?” (1999). because wtf the way puberty hit this boy like a ton of bricks.

vs. hayden christensen at 18:
bonus: a critical hit. “higher ground” (2000) hayden christensen at 18, ft. pouty lips and frosted blonde tips.
Do you see yourself being part of the Star Wars world more? Are there other stories to be told? I mean I know, obviously, what happens with your character, but are there other stories to be told that you'd wanna be a part of?
