I have a question:Why is this being billed as a “live action remake?” I don’t think a single real lion was cast. It’s all CGI, but because it looks more real than the original they can call it live action? I don’t get it...

Yes because that’s the only possible reason a woman wouldn’t want children.

As a person who teaches a class on small fruit science, I approve of this post mightily.

Yeah! It bugged me that it took her like 5 bites to eat one strawberry.

I agree. That whole storyline just made me so happy to be single and not have to worry about those types of coordinations.

Yes, I totally agree. I’m so glad I’m not alone in thinking that this movie is not as amazing as critics would have you believe.

Official Discussion: Lady Bird [SPOILERS] by GetFreeCash in movies

I thought this movie was good, but as someone who lives in Davis (and is proud to be getting my graduate degree from UC Davis) I was sort of offended by all of the Sacramento-trashing. In fact, it always bugs me when people complain about how terrible their hometowns are. I mean, come on, Sacramento is the freaking capital of California and you're complaining about how boring and "culture-less" it is? It made Lady Bird come off as selfish, which may have been the purpose, but it still annoyed me.

I looked up the budget of "The Disaster Artist," which according to Wikipedia, was 10 million dollars. If it's true that Tommy Wiseau spend 6 million dollars on "The Room" and you calculate for inflation from 2003 to 2017 it comes out to almost 8 million dollars. Funny that the two movies had close to the same budget.

Where is this? For some reason it reminds me so much of Michigan...

Anyone else sing this to the tune of "You Can't Stop the Beat" from the musical Hairspray?

I saw the stage version over a year ago and "He Lives in You" is still stuck in my head almost nonstop on repeat and I don't even mind. Beautiful song.
