A+ first comment

lmao thank you. I had to go back and show my bf all the Sony hack stuff because I reference this all the time.

[arellaj]

same

[sluttyroyals]

I always just assumed it was a disgruntled ex employee.

[masterofmystery]

yeah i always assumed it was internal. if it was some huge external party i figure they'd go for a larger company, like disney or something. who the fuck cares about sony pictures comparatively

[yamair]

Yeah, I'm sure there were even reports before the whole NK thing took hold.

[josiefier]

I feel like that's the only option really.

the sony hack really put Amy Pascal on the map for me LOL I notice her at every award show now

(I also retroactively noted her guffawing at the Amy/Tina joke about Kathryn Bigelow's marriage to James Cameron)

That's crazy that they still don't know exactly what happened.

I was just thinking about the hack because I saw Amy Pascal do a Q&A last night. She didn't address the hack or anything, but seems to have a pretty good sense of humor, and clearly enjoys being a producer.

The moderator asked her how much things have changed in the industry since the last Little Women, which she also produced, but in a leading sort of way where he expected her answer to be very positive. She started off by saying back then, there was one woman in charge of a major studio... and now, there is one (different) woman in charge of a major studio, so yeah, things are very different. We laughed, and then she said, no, things are better, and there are more women directors - but not enough.

I could definitely see her pissing off men, especially ones that reported to her, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was a former employee.

[elvasle]

shes also racist trash so

[masterofmystery]

soooooo how was it

[scriptedending]

OT LW Review: [Spoiler (click to open)]I want/need to see it again because I felt like I was too in my head comparing and contrasting it the older one this time around, but that being said, I really liked it. It moves briskly, and feels way shorter that 2h15min, but isn't afraid to linger on moments that need a beat. Saoirse, Florence and Tim were the highlights for me, and while I usually love her, I felt like Laura Dern was overdoing it a bit. Emma Watson was fine, imo, but there's one or two scenes where the accent's a bit dodgy

I can't believe it's been five years. Feels like both yesterday and an eternity ago. I remember sitting in class refreshing ONTD and trying to keep myself from laughing.

[scriptedending]

stuff like this reminds me how quickly time passes - can't believe it was five years ago.

[winegums]

Same, it was one of those ontd times that actually had me wheezing irl.

How time flies...
