Pop Culture Round Up: September 6-12

I think I will try to pretend that this will result is something truly amazing and not a reminder that the show might be a lot better if it were called 12.

"Indie film is dead! Again! Still! For real this time!" We'll see.

Oh, no wait, the Australian thinks so, too.

I totally rocked this quiz. I have been pronounced "Dylan McKay smooth."

"Memory, comprehension and problem-solving skills all improve in people who apply mental exercises used by actors." Yay! Bring on the elderly improv groups.

This might be brilliant.

I realize that I was pretty young when it came out and that I haven't seen in in years, but I thought Grumpy Old Men was funny because it was funny and appealing because it's nice to think that we'll still have friends and fun when we get older. Now thinking about getting older just makes me sad.

Great. Now can we do something about the dearth of great female characters in movies?

You know what? Good. Post secondary is too expensive to begin with, especially in the US.

Again, if I made a habit of linking to GFY, it'd fill this post every week, but what? Why haven't I heard about this Etta James biopic starting effing Beyonce sooner? Why is this happening?

I can't explain why, but this casting news is exciting!

Even if we are saddled with another Paul Haggis-mussed script, this trailer still looks totally bitchin'.

This story manages to be funny, sad, weird, and great simultaneously.
