A barfly (Samuel Jackson) learns to deal with his alcoholism when a new bartendress (Rashida Jones) starts working at his local watering hole. She asks him to help out at her day job, an animal shelter for special-needs pets. He learns to takes responsibility for his alcohol abuse when he accidentally leaves an open bottle of vodka in the shelter and a blind Pomeranian knocks it over, drinks it and almost dies. (The shelter vet is played by Margo Martindale and includes a pivotal nude scene.)

The twist: Jones is actually his trans child, a son who he kicked out of the house for being queer. Daniel is now Dani and identifies as trans racial, too.

by Anonymousreply 17November 5, 2015 6:25 AM

Jennifer Lawrence is perfectly cast as Darla Dimple, world-weary yet spunky, twice-divorced waitressing mother of four. Bradley Cooper naturally plays her beau named Bo, the dashing alcoholic cable installer with a checkered cast on his broken arm, an injury righteously caused by Whyomeeee Gawwd (relentlessly played by Viola Davis), who is the somber yet feisty, downtrodden yet uppity neighbor who caught Bo yanking the best cucumber out of her prized vegetable garden and broke his daggone arm in the struggle to get it back. Viola's character naturally carries the pain of every single black person who has ever lived and also carries a curiously large, bulging bookbag constantly on her back and the gossipy townsfolk are convinced she's morbidly carrying around the corpse of her gone child whose body was mysteriously never recovered from the aftermath of the BBQ grilling explosion at Funky Fred's annual cookout the previous summer. The bookbag's contents are finally revealed when Darla, convinced Whyo stole the VHS recording of Bo kissing her little rose-colored asshole, attacks the bag until just a whole bunch of candy comes falling out, mostly grape Blow Pops, Whyo's favorite. Big laugh/tension reliever from the constant searing drama. Darla apologizes and promises Whyo a copy of the tape when it's found. It all ends with a totally kickass CGI tornado killing everybody at Bo and Darla's wedding, the only survivor is Bo's three-legged mutt named Trio, whimpering and sniffing at Darla's bridal veil, while her severed head slowly rolls towards Bo's severed cucumber-stealing hand where his brand new gold wedding band softly twinkles as the end credits begin to roll with Miley Cyrus wailing sickening sap from the godawful soundtrack.

Jane Fonda is a retired college professor who was a radical in the 60s and 70s. In fact, doing anthropology field work in South America when she was young, she was kidnapped by Marxists rebels and - though she doesn't know it - was converted into a sleeper agent reporting to Havana. She things she only has a bit of stockholm syndrome and in fact, probably had an affair with one of the rebels. This was decades ago, however. She married, had a family, she's now a widow. Her husband was Mob connected.

Meanwhile in Havana, Castro, infirm but still aware, learns that the American mafia is going to get involved again in Hotels and prostitution in Cuba. He CAN NOT stand this idea, and in a private audience with a secret agent, tells him to find a way to assassinate the Mob guy. They decide to wake up Jane, the sleeper agent to do it.

Intrigue follows when Jane, working with the handsome cuban secret agent, suddenly begins to wonder if in fact the son of her Marxist lover from the 60's. Even possibly, her OWN son.

She also doesn't work perfectly as a sleeper cell, and has some reservations about the hits she is being ordered to carry out.

by Anonymousreply 21November 5, 2015 8:11 AM

By the way, my Jane Fonda movie has to be very very dark. Jane, woken, is pretty deadly and cold and the hits are antiseptic, which is contrasted with her rather seductive and attractive and amusing and ironic demeanour in other scenes. The film should end on her complete personality collapse and the audience should feel bad for the character.

Charlize Theron stars as hard-bitten investigative journalist who's had her heart broken too many times. Not caring whether she lives or dies, she goes undercover as a coal miner to write about hazardous conditions and lack of safety standards in coal mines.

We can tell she's a great actress because her face gets dirty.

Ben Affleck plays the greedy and corrupt mine owner who falls in love with her because she's so plucky, then he discovers she's a woman. The power of Charlize's love transforms him and he becomes a crusader for mine safety.

There's so much pathos in this one you'll need to make sure you bring a box of tissues when you watch it. The scene where the canary (played by Meryl Streep) dies always makes audiences weep.

Leo as a early 19th century trapper, who is attacked by a bear -- buried alive and left for dead but bursting out the earth like a second birth- - finds out his young son he had with a native american woman was murdered - goes through a harrowing journey through the wildness involving riding a horse off a cliff and being swept down icy rapids to avenge said son's death. A lot of imagery of the beauty of nature and the ugliness of the invading white man. A lot of stretches with no dialogue but grunting and hair and make-up to show you are a serous actor and not a pretty boy.

It still exists, it's just now called Dissociative Identity Disorder, because the former term made it sound like multiple personalities inhabited the person when, in fact, it's more of a detachment from reality because a situation is too traumatic or painful, and the different identities act like a defense mechanism.

Rabid right-wing talk show host Brick Booker (Gary Cole) starts to have feelings for sexy, liberal political reporter Nate Stewart (Ben Barnes.)

Booker is married (to Laura Linney) and although he's not homophobic, his attraction to Nate confuses and scares him, and he fights it.

Nate exposes a dangerous pipeline project and becomes a frequent guest on Booker's show...they give in to their passion after a particularly heated on-air exchange.

Their relationship becomes real (a surprise to both) but remains a secret...until Barnes is diagnosed with cancer. Barnes needs a bone marrow transplant and only his wildly homophobic, long-lost brother can be the donor. Against his network boss' (Brian Denehey) wishes Cole announces his love for Nate on his show and pleads with the public to help find the brother.

The brother (Kit Harrington) shows up at the last minute--he's a changed man and the brothers reconcile.

Nate's life is saved and Booker gets a divorce...they are thrilled to be alive and together and they live happily ever after.

Through the Make-A-Wish foundation, Adelia requests to go on a Carribean cruise with her single, hard-working blue collar mother Trudy (Charlize Theron) who has never had a vacation since Adelia's birth. On the cruise, Trudy makes the acquaintance of happy-go-lucky shipboard magician Kevin (Seth Rogen) who teaches her how to laugh, let loose, and fall in love.

The hitherto unknown secret holocaust which took place in Los Angeles is revealed to the world through the eyes of a young black Jewish woman named Chhhhhaya, *Introductory Musical Number* The only colour in the movie is the purple dress that Chaya wears; everything else is in black & white. Chaya is smuggled across the country to New York City by the a group of "Muslim feminists" calling their operation the Underground Caravan. *Musical Number* Once they're free of Los Angeles and the evil gay white male Nazi sympathizers she meets an Chinese immigrant named "Kevin," *Musical Number,* with whom she starts a family after he teaches her to "love again" after the brutal rape of a female by the evil gay Nazis because that is what all men do regardless of sexuality. *Yet Another Musical Number* This incredible macho hairless wisp of a man has to defend his farm against a group of female vigilantes who mistake his white gentile employees as the gay-Nazi-sympathizers by whom he was previously persecuted. Being assumed gay Nazi sympathizers, they are all naturally assumed to be infected by HIV even though they're celibate because that is the fate of 99% of gay men in Hollywood regardless of their proclivities as per universal homophobic law. *Gay Nazi musical number regarding the consequences of being gay, like becoming a Nazi and acquiring HIV* When the vigilantes notice that these workers are no more than heterosexual white males--who are inherently good regardless of their past date rapes--because they are not randomly going blind or dying, they march off into the distance to liberate more black Jewish women from the evil gay Nazi sympathizers back in Hollywood, at which point they vow to install a matriarchal monarchy as government. *Musical Number To Applause From Onlookers* There are many flashbacks to the oppression of Chaya throughout the production in order to include shots of various parts of Los Angeles in order to further satiate the critics while someone plays a sad tune on a harmonica on a street corner in every scene; other than that, the entire soundtrack is a compilation of newly-labelled-tranny Billie Holiday songs. The final scene of the movie includes Chaya handing down the dress to her non-gay transdaughter while she begins to "tell him a story about her life" to the light of the kwanza-menorah candles, which, after being lit, finally bring colour to the scene, representing the rich and vibrant life that he transdaughter can now experience.

The end.

Lindsay Lohan stars as a washed up child actress who befriends a down on his luck, friendless and depressed studio executive who is accused of sexually harassing a number of women (played by a Adam Sandler, who will describe in torturous detail how hard it was to put the extra weight on). She teaches him how to love again, after all his friends and industry people have abandoned him, through the use of crystals and reiki. Sandler teaches her how to act again, through the use of pottery and mime. She cures him of his sex addiction by showing him bear porn.

Whoopi Goldberg stars as an astrologist and tarot card reader who moonlights as a movie script writer. She sells Sandler the movie of a lifetime, the one that will miraculously get everyone in Hollywood to forgive him. He puts Lindsay in the leading role and she gets her "Pretty Woman" moment: she is transformed into a glamorous Hollywood star, and everyone falls in love with her again. Zac Efron plays the pretty boy who wanted nothing to do with her until her transformation, but she blows him off to be with the reformed Sandler.

Hannah has a hard time understanding Kelly's PTSD and she secretly comes across love letters between Kelly and her deceased lover Gretchen(Kate McKinnon in her first dramatic role).

Emma Stone starts in "Pet", the Petula Clark story. The biopic shows the English singer's period of international fame with hits in the 1960s and climaxes with the scandal that erupted in 1968. NBC-TV had invited her to host her own special in the U.S., and in doing so she inadvertently made television history. While singing a duet of "On the Path of Glory," an anti-war song that she had composed, with guest Harry Belafonte (Denzel Washington), she took hold of his arm, to the dismay of a representative from the show's sponsor Chrysler Corporation who feared that the moment would incur racial backlash from Southern viewers.

Timothee Chalamet oozes equal parts vulnerability and sex appeal as the young love interest Brendan Glynne who turns Dick's world upside down. Kevin Spacey shows off his acting chops as the scheming and devious PR agent who doesn't have Dick's best interest at heart. Charlize Theron dons a fat suit to fully bring to life the character of DICKSTODNEWSUPDATE, the online alias of a homophobic fan girl. Robert Downey JR brings top comedic relief in the form of Gay Peanut Gallery, a person on the internet whose sleuthing skills will impact this riveting story in the most unexpected ways. Oprah and Meryl star as themselves. In a career first George Clooney is the voice of Charlie The Dog. The surrealism of Charlie's sage words is not to be missed! Will Dick choose love and a future career made of roles as sassy gay best friend in British soaps, or will he be persuaded to go for the Bond role and a lifetime of self-blame? Black And White Rainbow has already received major Oscar buzz with critics highlighting Robert Downey Jr as this year's worthiest contender for Supporting Actor. Director Todd Haynes brings his A-game to tell an epic tale of love, lust and choices. A spokesperson for GLAAD says: "Long overdue, Black And White Rainbow is finally THE picture to tackle Hollywood's homophobia head on. We truly believe this movie will be a gamechanger."

In the new Steven Spielberg epic "Normal," we are treated to an amazing Oscar-worthy turn from Christophe Waltz, in his first role NOT as a sociopath.

In a recent interview, Waltz revealed how he had to learn to narrow his grin, bare fewer teeth, stop being such a Weisenheimer, and watch when he lifted his right arm.

Co-starring are Frances McDormand as his loyal, bridge-playing spouse; Freddie Highmore as his dutiful and studious son; and Kevin James as his friendly but klutzy neighbor. In a unique appearance is "Gawain," one of Queen Elizabeth's corgis, as family pooch "Butthead."

Spielberg is taking a major risk, filming this movie over the course of a month in real time, without a script or any rehearsals. Nevertheless, the esteemed director stated recently that "This movie has everything! Breakfast, lunch, dinner, Roman J. Israel, Esquire!"

"In Depp Schitt" - Johnny Depp writes, directs and plays the title character, Depp Schitt, a once-beloved character actor whose life is on the rocks due to his marriage to a conniving gold-digger (Scarlett Johannesen). Given the secondary role in a film about the genius of silent film star Harold Lloyd (fictional film is titled "Frankly, Lloyd's Right) in which a longtime rival (Robert Downey Jr., de-aged by CGI) plays Lloyd, Depp must learn to wean himself from the bottle, the coke spoon, the failure to flush, etc., before realizing the redemptive power of his true love for acerbic screenwriter Jeremy Renner (daringly full frontal for the15-minute final scene). Depp will be nominated for Best Actor, Director, Screenplay and Film and lose every category while Downey waltzes off with Best Supporting Actor and all the critics agree they'd rather have simply seen the film about Harold Lloyd.

At the age of 106 Barbra Streisand reclaims the Hollywood throne she never quit as the greatest star evah; writing, producing, directing, starring in, providing the costumes and snacks and all the songs in “Ukraine! You kiddin’!”

Hear Will Smith sing of his pain, loss, humiliation and redemption in the opening number “Don’ cha’ make me git mah can of Whuppazz Motherfucka!” as he rues a life haunted by roid rage and seething hatred of the seemingly locked closet he now finds himself in.

Later Kevin Spacey transcends the medium of song, delivering a life enhancing yet searing indictment of world weary nihilism in the heartbreaking ballad “Will you Forget so I can re-launch my Career?

And soon Barbra’s merciless camera turns to Elliot Page. In a stunning play against type Elliot’s character smiles and confesses in an angst filled wail “ They were never my tits to Lose”. Grown men openly weeping. A heavenly choir swells in unison maddeningly whispering “it’s literal murder”

AnnE shimmers into view. Dazzlingly lustrous, haughty yet oddly vulnerable. She turns her searching gaze directly into the camera - it’s too naked, uncompromising and broken and she sings “Enough About Me, What do you think of Me?

As Barbra is Hollywood’s most popular star many, many of her closest and dearest friends are only too happy to appear in all too brief cameos - look there’s Elliott Gould as, well no one quite knows, Beyoncé as a token black face sining up a storm in “I owe it all to Daddy”, Lea Michelle in a show stopping “It shoulda been me!” And isn’t that Denzel Washington crooning softly to Barbra’s own son Jason “Don’t Evah Play Gay!”?

It’s Oscars for all I tell you!
