Flung Out of Tweet Space
Monday, December 28, 2015 at 8:00AM Before we get to the past week in contemporary cinema tweeting, let's take a moment to check in with the Tilly sisters, Jennifer and Meg who were visiting their mom in Canada...
My sister Meg made these pies! pic.twitter.com/lR7vg0LvWk

This tweet made me so happy. I think because I had just randomly scene The Fabulous Baker Boys again on Cinemax and Jennifer is so funny in it as "Blanche/Monica". I like to fantasize that in private Jennifer and Meg call each other by their full titles, like...
Jennifer: Yum. What kind of pies are we having tonight Oscar Nominated Actress Meg Tilly?
Meg: Well Oscar Nominated Actress Jennifer Tilly I made a bunch. Pecan, Apple...
Tweet Randomness starring The Revenant, Carol, Star Wars, and more after the jump
RANDOMNESS
"What's good, Miley?", except just asking for her Top Ten list.

Michael Mann once explained to me his theory that we only really "experience" films after the fact of watching them. Very true for me.

You can't rush true love. You have to wait patiently, in the woods, covered in deer piss and then shoot it and use its blood for rituals

Twitter polls only allow four answers because it knows that, with five, we gays would crash the service rearbitrating every Oscar race ever.

Rooney Mara gave us a genuinely new portrayal of falling in love. I didn't know that was possible.

3) Rooney Mara, in a Santa Claus hat, watching and watching and watching Cate Blanchett as if learning a new language in Carol.

I can't wait for "A Muppet Carol" in which a bored 1950s housewife Miss Piggy seduces a shopgirl played by Janice. pic.twitter.com/jdrfncjge3

HAVE YOU HEARD THAT MAKING THE REVENANT WAS LIKE SUPER DUPER HARD? A VERITABLE LIVING HELL?
"Leonardo DiCaprio gained six pounds and had to talk to several clingy extras while filming #The Revenant."

CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME IF IT WAS DIFFICULT TO FILM “THE REVENANT"

Things Leo tastes like: Money. The North Atlantic. Red Carpets. Pussy. Fear. …what’s that (?) "Raw Bison Liver"? Naaaah.

I really hope they don't try to bring the bear from THE REVENANT to awards shows Uggie-style. That won't end well... pic.twitter.com/DJI2VPYdiz

STAR WARS:
THE FORCE WON'T GO BACK TO BED...
Random thought after seeing STAR WARS: Lupita N’yongo was good as the love child of Linda Hunt & the girl who calls Peppermint Patty “sir”.

i remember jennifer tilly on some talk show promoting seed of chucky: "i also play myself, c-grade actress jennifer tilly"
Oh sweet God. This is the best collection of tweets ever. This has everything. Lol
Also, at first glance, I thought that was Madonna and Blanchett, which is a horrifying thought. What is happening to me?!
And Leo is THIRSTY for that Oscar, just look at that Variety article, guys.
Lovin me some Meg Tilly today,Love Masquerade,trashy 80's at it's best & a hot Rob Lowe..
Meg Tilly is one of several white actresses who look like latter-day Michael Jackson in their prime.
There are so many to choose from, but my Emo Kylo Ren fave tweet is the one complaining "dad the wookie used all my garnier fructis".
Of this lot, the Julianne Moore one is the best.
@craver thanks to my newsfeeds being awash in lust for Poe, I misread that as Leo being thirsty fo r Oscar Isaac. Would have also worked.
I'm so in love with Oscar Isaac. He sing, he can dance...can he fix my car too?
It seem like the whole campaign to let everyone know how hard to make The Revenant was is backfiring on Leo.
I would love it if Fassbender swooped in and scooped up Best Actor after zero campaigning. Leo's head would explode.
This is what happened to Meg Tilly? Kinda sad.
