Hugh Grant Brought His Signature Grumpiness To His Oscars Interview With Ashley Graham
Just last week, Emily wrote about how known certified grouchy bitch Hugh Grant admitted to busting out a tantrum on an innocent woman he thought was a studio executive on the set of Dungeons & Dragons. Since Hugh has a reputation as a crank to uphold, he seemed visibly thrilled and excited about all the riveting questions that red champagne carpet Oscars host, Ashley Graham, tossed his way last night. Ashley was doing her job of asking a bunch of canned mundane questions, and Hugh seemed to be trying to be dry and witty, but it became a puddle of awkwardness. It was like a conversation between two people who aren’t even on the same book, let alone the same page. And yes, the book that Hugh was on was called Old-Timey Phrases, and the “book” that Ashley Graham was on was an issue of Vanity Fair magazine.
Francis Ford Coppola Also Thinks That Marvel Movies Are Trash
Francis Ford Coppola, the man who directed Captain EO, the WORST Star Wars movie ever made, has decided to get into the debate over what can be classified as “cinema”. Francis is with Martin Scorsese on this one, and thinks Marvel movies don’t count as cinema because they have nothing to teach us. He’s even went a step further saying that Marty was being too kind. Francis thinks they’re “despicable” and urged them to get off his lawn immediately.
Martin Scorsese Continued His Crusade Against Superhero Movies
Founding member of the high school Foreign Film Society and captain of the chess team, Martin Scorsese, is still trying to get a rise out of the dumb jock prom king, Marvel, who continues to be the more popular, if less likely to go to Harvard on a scholarship (mostly because it’ll probably get in as a legacy). Not long ago, Marty, who is doing press for his sure to be Oscar nominated film The Irishman, proclaimed that Marvel’s superhero movies are “not cinema”, and likened them to “theme parks”. And I guess since Marvel didn’t just throw in the towel immediately and start researching “jobs for jocks who can’t reed gud”, Marty doubled down on his criticism.
