Justice League Movie
Only interested in Fantastic Four for 2015. Found the Avengers absolutely boring and I'm so tired of the hype surrounding that franchise. It just wasn't that great of a movie but make enough money and pay the right review companies and you're golden. Hopefully they change the Man of Steel sequel's title. "Batman vs Superman" is just ridiculous. I trust Zach Snyder with Justice League and I've liked all of his movies so far. Yes Man of Steel might have been a little too gritty/depressing in some ways but I found it to be a very realistic portrayal of a person who's grown up very isolated on a world he's not meant to be on. Hopefully they do a really good job with the sequel. Between this and the Star Wars news today has been great!

SO new girl Kristen rocks the boat that Ramona is on (along with Sonja or some other party from the looks of it) and Singer gets upset/mad and throws her glass at her....sorry but it looks like Kristen instigated that sh*t and I think its totally justified on Ramona's part. If they were on land Ramona probably would have pulled a Porsha and I wouldn't blame her one bit. And why would Ramona be jealous of Sonja's boy toy? Even if she and Mario were having marital problems at this time Sonja's life is clearly hanging on by a thread and all these different events she's throwing/hosting are just her living in serious denial. That being said Ramona was absolutely wrong for throwing that champagne at her and should have apologized immediately.

Did Aviva really just tell this poor man that his wine tasted acidic like urine!?!? I can't with lady...

Watching it right now. I'll give my thoughts on Ramona but I don't think throwing a glass at someone makes them trashy. Ramona is probably in the wrong and her behavior is very poor but that doesn't erase all her good qualities.... Glad to see the ratings are high. I pray it stays that way.

I honestly bought Cyn's tears but at the same time the cynical side me of does wonder if this is all a plot between Nene/Cyn to have storyline next season. That being said Nene came off horribly in Part 2. Even Andy called her out on her seemingly not giving a damn about Cynthia crying right in front of her..... Kenya was fake as usual. Her whole rant at the beginning of Part 2 was absolutely laughable and I'm glad Nene put her in her place. DEAD at Andy Cohen and Mr Ayden Parks....

HBO: Game of Thrones
Understandable....I say positive things and negative things about the show. But if you guys don't want me to comment cuz I'm too negative then just say so. But I like characters and I like this world and I like discussing the show (even if its mostly flaws and a hot mess at the end of the day). If you want to pretend like the show is perfect go right ahead but I think I have a right to voice a dissenting opinion if I want to.

HBO: Game of Thrones
I never said I "hated" the entire show. I just hate certain aspects of it.... And for me personally Seasons 1 and 2 were pure gold. Nothing major was changed that I can recall....

She'd be damaged goods if she had done the deed with Joffrey I think and if shes to be Queen I think tradition is that she has to be a virgin.

Married to Medicine
She's adorable tho! I don't know if I could bring myself to lay on a finger on her. And yall got me wanting to see Quad again....she is too funny and just too real for this ish.

HBO: Game of Thrones
LOL Vee I totally get what you're coming from and I'm about to reach that stage. I try to tell myself that its not the books at all and at this stage I should just watch it without any expectations but its just really frustrating cuz I know for the most part whats coming up and I know these characters and these storylines so to see them fail so bad on screen is kinda painful... Regarding the Vanity Fair article I didn't really think of it as a monumental shift. I just thought it was an absolute trainwreck. I rolled my eyes at several moments (the Jaime/Cersei scene for one...is THAT we're supposed to deal with the aftermath of a rape scene? The victim acts like nothing happened and she's fine with it?). I rolled my eyes at the entire Bran sequence. Its was just laughably bad IMO. I didn't the point aside from trying to "juice up the blood/gore/excitement" factor for the casual viewer who claims to be bored with Bran's story. Regarding the White Walkers even in the books they are very vague and to this day we really don't know much about them. I think the show is okay in how they make them very scary but all that Fortress of whatever stuff was confusing to me as a reader cuz it doesn't mean anything. Aside from the graphics what was the point? To show that they turn the babies into White Walkers themselves? I had already assumed they either did that or killed them....

What did you think of the ending Julia? With the exception of episode 2 or 3 (whichever was Joffreys death I believe) I think all the episodes have ended horribly.

HBO: Game of Thrones
Glad they didn't go "there" with that Margaery/Tommen scene...but that being said it was AMAZING and well thought out and executed. Def got across the point the books have made re the Cersei vs Margaery battle for Tommen.... OMG....just when I start to have a little faith in the show they give us that idiotic Bran scene which is totally false and completely ridiculous. It makes NO SENSE at all. Jon Snow doesn't even KNOW Bran is alive in the books. Nor does Bran ever get captured like this and he would never reveal his true identity.

OH thanks Faulkner...I was like terrified for a moment that I was losing my mind and track of the days..... Lol sounds intense though judging from the amount of discussion its already garnering. Sundays are like the day of the week as far as I'm concerned with this, Mad Men, and GoT!

Wait is the second part of the reunion out already? I'm confused cuz where I'm at its Sunday and I thought it aired tonight....

Ha its not that I was "biased" per se its just that I had a very strong reaction when I first saw him on screen and then was told who he was supposed to be! Its just kinda jarring to me that of all the actors in the world to play the role they choose that one.... The guy who's looking after Littlefingers establishment is quite the stud though. Don't blame Oberyn for one second for wanting that lol. Still though the Red Viper is wasted in all these whoring scenes. I much prefer when he's verbally sparring with the Lannisters.

The Cersei/Tywin scene was made up (the one about the family and living up to his edicts). However the scene with Cersei/Tyrion/Lord Tywin later on is for the most part authentic from the books.

The Politics Thread
RE Hillary I honestly think the part of the Democratic Party that isn't thrilled about her (due to the Wall Street ties and the strong foreign policy tendencies) represents at most 20% of the party. Now I'll admit I had NO stats to back that up and this is pure speculation on my part but I just don't buy this idea that the media (and people like Mika from Morning Joe) are trying to create...that like half of all Dems loathe Hillary Clinton and aren't excited for her to run this time around. I don't think the liberal base is mad about the 2008 campaign and we've already hashed that argument out before. For my part and from all articles I've read no one has ever accused Hillary of running a "racist campaign". The only issue was with Bill Clinton and some of the questionable things he said during that campaign. Especially during South Carolina where it got very ugly. Again there was no bad blood after the convention and her working as Secretary of State erased any ill will for the vast majority of Democrats. There's only two things standing in Hillary Clinton's way of running. The Wall Street conundrum (which really isn't going to be a big deal) and then dealing with the possibility that the wealthy donor class of Republicans will go totally ape sh*t totally nuclear in 2016 and do everything humanly possibly to get Jeb Bush or Chris Christie the nomination. THEN and only then will she have a real fight on her hands. Some in the media (including Chris Matthews who I love dearly but sometimes says hilarious bs) are trying to pretend like Rand Paul has a decent shot but I think most people will take him only a little more seriously than they did Ron Paul. He's just a little too extreme for mainstream America to take seriously...esp when it comes to foreign policy and even some domestic issues.

In terms of clothing and the beard yeah he's nothing like book version Daario. However I find him a billion times more attractive than the ugly old actor they chose. This version looks young to me and hot enough to make a Queen want him.

I guess I'm at a point in life where I see it as either 1) Porsha could have stood up for herself and put Kenya in her place OR 2) Stayed silent like a punk and let Kenya continue to walk all over her spreading vicious gossip and probably lies. For me I get furious when I know someone is blatantly lying or saying the most ridiculous things (just for the sake of attention). Not saying I would have reacted the same way Porsha did but I can understand why she reacted that way. Kenya pushed her buttons and she reacted. Same way Phaedra wanted to "slap the dog sh*t" out of Kenya and probably would have IF Kenya had done anything suspect with Apollo on that trip.

So we're all supposed to just sit back and let everyone attack us without any kind of retaliation? Umm okay...I think most reasonable people know where the line is and when to stop. The problem with people like Kenya is that they DON'T know when enough is enough.

The Politics Thread
Yep if Democrats are smart they'll use this idiot as a tool to increase voter turnout and paint him over the rest of the Republican Party. I'm more fascinated however with the new Elizabeth Warren book and all the buzz surrounding her and whether or not she will run for President. Personally I take her at her word that she's not going to run. However Mika B. from Morning Joe is annoying me to no end about Elizabeth Warren and her lil nods and winks. I get it Mika...you're a fangurl for Elizabeth Warren. But lets not pretend like Hillary Clinton isn't popular in her own right and authentic about what she believes in or what a Clinton 16 message would center on. And if for some awful reason Hillary Clinton decides not to run well I'm def looking at Gov. Martin O'Malley, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, and Gov. Andrew Cuomo BEFORE I seriously consider Elizabeth Warren. She needs to serve one term in the Senate at least.

Exactly I was never a fan of Porsha's...and I still am not. I just understand why the slow girl did what she did.

Sonja automatically has me forgiving her for EVERYTHING just for dragging LuMann through the dirt like the cheap wannabe that she is!!!! And rollseye at the double standard re Porsha/Kenya from certain people.... Ramona has always been Queen of RHONY despite Jill wanting that title. And Ramona will stay Queen until she's ready to bow down and leave on her accord.

An adult doesn't bring a damn scepter to a reunion!!!!! WTF? Are we serious? She's an attention seeking fame whore....she may have been a valid working actress these past 40 years but I had NEVER heard of Kenya Moore until last season and to this day I still don't even remember if she was Miss USA or Miss America! She keeps acting like she has all this wealth and has led this glamorous life where all these men come a knocking on her door but so far we've seen nothing but Walter a guy she PAID to be on the show and this fake "prince" As Phaedra said after the incident with Porsha..."GIRL BYE!"

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
This is the most attention Porsha has gotten in over 2 years....all thanks to Kenya.... Still not a huge fan of Kenya's at all but I have to admit she's been at the center of a majority of the ish that went down this season.....
