Hey, you ever seen The 40 Year Old Virgin? The scene where Steve Carell and Catherine Keener are fighting over him getting rid of his massive collection of action figures so he can stop being a gigantic nerrrrrrd? And you can very clearly see an Anna Valerious doll/box?

Yeah. I'll join you in the shame corner.

CONE OF SHAME!!!

I read somewhere that Stephen Colbert will be testifying in character. How...how does that work? Is that valid? Odd.

Also...not going to lie, pretty excited about that last bit. In a completely no pressure kind of way, of course.

[clodia_risa]

What? In front of Congress? That seems...ill-advised.

[reticent_lass]

That seems damned unlikely, to be honest. I'm thinking Internet Article Telephone is at work again.

Its on a number of news sources, including the Huffington Post, but they're all quoting a 'Republican source', so who knows.

oh Kate Winslet, I loved you so :(

[sinipaitainen]

oh! I just realised what that last bit was referrig to. SQUEE

[litlover12]

Seconding the SQUEE!

Oh man, Veronica Mars. I remember when you used to recap those, which is going back some.

[cleolinda]

Yeah--I know I've bailed on a number of series recaps, but I think that's just the one show I wouldn't even want to try to finish out the season for. Not because it was terrible, but because it just didn't take, in terms of me wanting to recap it. The others, I just stopped because the recaps were so work-intensive that I had to choose between writing them and actually enjoying the show.

I had heard none of the buzz about The King's Speech and, having followed the links above, am determined to see it. Probably in the theaters. Geoffrey Rush and Colin Firth? The only thing that could have improved it would be Michael Caine.

It looks amazing, but I'm a bit flummoxed the R rating. For language, says IMDb. For *language*? Just how gutter-mouthed can a high-end British period drama get? (Don't answer that, I don't think I want to know.)

[litlover12]

(flummoxed BY the R rating)

[skye_writer]

In all probability, it's rated R because it has the word "fuck" more than once. (From what I understand, you only get one if you want to keep a PG-13 rating, which is really stupid.)
