Isn't it weird how Tom Hiddleston's face is basically skin stretched over a skull but also really hot?

Yes, Hitchcock was a genius -- but I still think cutting the musical number from Psycho was a mistake. #LetsMovie pic.twitter.com/CF4QQfRl54

Star Wars Mania for those who were indifferent to it...
Because wow Star Wars was all over the place this week. Imagine how great/bad things will get in December (depending on your perspective)
So many great but similar tweets about "Star Wars" that I feel like I'm in some sort of -- to coin a phrase -- "attack of the clones!"

It's probably easy to make peace with the mirror when you look like Ronnie Kroell but it's still a beautiful prolly worthwhile sentiment!

Pooh Bear!
Bye Anthony Mackie.
That first tweet from Louis killed me when I first read it. I think it was "smart blouse" that really had me giggling.
And Glen's...now I'm giggling again.
Mackie is known for saying dumb shit but i don't think what he said was that bad at all. I mean, Steven Spielberg directed The Color friggin Purple and I wholeheartedly love that movie.
Black classics have been directed by white filmmakers yes. But they're classics because we had nothing else. As long as black images were on the screen nobody made too much of a fuss because these movies can easily be denied financing from the studios.
I'll admit Anthony Mackie's comment made me chuckle, but I don't think it's destructive in any way. I think getting the best director for a particular story is greater than getting the "right" director.
Was that really a publicity shot from "Psycho" ?
@ Jaragon: More like Les demoiselles du Bates Motel.
Guy Lodge. Hilarious.
Your Carol tweets are EVERYTHING.
