Writer: "Mr. Favreau, won't it look weird doing all this with realistic looking animals, seeing as they don't really have expressions?"

Favreau, expressionless: "No."

Felt like I was properly losing it when I realised the songs would just be animals running around in grass cause doing all the fun stuff from the original wouldn't be realistic enough

I'm not precious about the lion king at all, but it was such a stupid concept, executed stupidly, from every angle

I saw the lion king one at a parent and baby showing and it is probably the most angry a movie has ever made me. Straight from the get go too, opening shot and I was saying "FUCK THIS!"

Luckily the keep the house lights on at those showings so I was able to get some work done

Trump and co's entire strategy, and outlook in general, is based on the idea that the people you bully will never fight back

It's like trying to saying you are doing everything you can to keep dry while also ruling out the use of umbrellas

If only there was a simple solution that would end the issue in a heartbeat. Like...I dunno, some sort of lens based recording device affixed to the lights? Science fiction talk I know, but a man can dream

I started shouting at someone who ran through a red light at a pedestrian crossing this morning, and they beeped back at me all angry. We are not going anywhere good with this

The timing of the objections is very funny, I doubt the lawyer is the smartest either

SΓ‘nchez: "Great to see you MicheΓ‘l, isn't it a beautiful day?"

MicheΓ‘l, a bit shook: "I was going to say the day is whatever you make of it, but you're right, it is beautiful. How do you state your beliefs with such clarity?"

Nazi's are very stupid in general though, it's a very stupid situation to end up in

Every single person on this side of things is about 100 times stupider than you already assumed

They are very nice to go to. I love solo cinema and theatre trips, for every 5 or 6 films I'd usually see 1 play

I was at a wedding over the weekend where the DJ didn't play a single song by the Beastie Boys. How can this keep happening

There's a bit Chris Morris did for his radio show back in the day, where he'd read out a long and ridiculous story that ended with a banal request. In one of them he expresses grief and longing by saying "Christ's fat cock how I ached"

I rarely go a day without thinking of that combination of words

The stock markets just were not designed to withstand a man who says lots of stuff

I just wish they would treat the initial mail with the invoice as the first reminder as well

A few clients have give the game by sending me money in an instant after I send a cranky email. If you can do it in an instant now you can do it at any time!

Hahahaha I was just about to share it with exactly this

I'm sure he didn't, but the fact she has spoken out against the war is something a staffer is likely to show him at some point in the coming days...

In order to test out the likelihood of this hypothesis, I fed the relevant data into an AI, and in response it generated an image of President Connolly with shamrocks for hands

My most realistic prediction for what might happen on St. Patrick's Day is Trump will say some horrifically offensive things about Catherine Connolly, and MicheΓ‘l will just laugh along.
