Ten Tweets o' the Week
The showbiz related tweets that made me laugh, smile or think the most this week all collected for your quick perusal. A silly quick diversion from the lengthier top tens on this all top ten day extravaganza.
Please to enjoy these quick thoughts on Marion Cotillard Gone Girl, Neil Patrick Harris, Fight Club, Doctor Strange, the weirdness of 70s filmmaking and much more...
Also: #Birdman's all-drum score >>>>>>>> the totality of Whiplash.

Imagine a little kid watching a studio movie right now and thinking, "When I grow up, I want to be a franchise brand manager!"

Whatever just happened on How to Get Away with Murder made my granny hang up on me.

Gone Girl and Doctor Strange after the jump...

Four Months, One Night, in which Marion Cotillard visits each home in LA: "I'm exemplary every year, sometimes twice. Will you nominate me?"

FAVORITE TWEETS FROM TEAM EXPERIENCE THIS WEEK
... are you following everyone?
Viola Davis, Anne Hathaway and I are best friends... according to my dream last night. (Can I go back to sleep now?)

I would tell you what actually happened in the dream but (some) things that happen amongst best friends must stay amongst best friends.

I just wish Emmanuel Lubezki would try harder, you know?

I'm all for NPH hosting the #Oscars, just as long as he does it as Hedwig.

Watching AN AMERICAN IN PARIS makes me miss riveting musical sequences that don't depend on interminable cuts and edits to dazzle.

Watching IDA. That screeching sound you may have heard was my heart coming to an abrupt stop around the 65 minute mark.

If you lined up all articles about Doctor Strange casting over the years they would reach around the whole Earth and still tell us nothing

A film festival of the last horrible movies actors did before their "creative renaissance" Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, This Means War, etc..
— Michael Cusumano (@SeriousFilm) October 21, 2014
and congratulations to Glenn! Huzzah!
Who woke up today with an invitation to the Stockholm Film Festival's FIPRESCI jury in November? This dude!

That Mary Poppins image is glorious.
Glad you appreciated, catbaskets. I felt that lightbulb go offf :)
Yay! Mary Poppins joined Twitter today!
If I had a Twitter account I would retweet Mark Harris, Jenn Doll and Nick Davis. Who am I kidding? I would always retweet Nick.
Boo to Jordan Baker's diss of Whiplash. I liked that movie so much I don't want to read any criticisms of it that might make me change my mind.
And once I figured out who was in Michael Cusumano's pic, I literally flinched in fear for her.
