Award Season is among us. Our reviewer Actor, Producer and Journalist Alex von Roon can't wait to check out the contenders starting off with HBO' s "Succession". How do you like Alexander as "Ken" in the Hit Movie "Barbie"? Von Roon did work with the director before and enjoyed her performance in "Greenberg"

For "Bild am Sonntag" Alex also met SAG Award nominee Tony Shalhoub on set in his trailer. Some comments were very interesting. We wonder how Mr. Monk would deal with a pandemic such as Corona.

Below please find the complete list of nominations courtesy of SAGAFTRA. Which are your favorites? Comment below.

My additions

Christmas Eve / Sarajevo 12/24

Spotify Wikipedia Youtube

an instrumental medley of "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" and "Shchedryk"; the piece describes a lone cello player playing a forgotten Christmas carol in war-torn Sarajevo.

Christmas Sucks, by not actually Tom Waits and Peter Murphy - actually called This Holiday Season by parody band P# Orchard (don't wanna write that word on tmblr) (will warn: suicide ideation, though)

Zan Vevede by Angelique Kidjo

Spotify Youtube

Sure you've heard O Holy Night. But you've never heard it like this. Kidjo is from Benin, and I haven't easily found which of the several languages she speaks it's in, if you know please tell me 😊 Listen and broaden your ears

O helga natt

Spotify Youtube

If you like an old-fashioned O Holy Night as well, take a listen to one of the world's best ever tenors, Jussi Björling, giving it his all.

My top favorite weird christmas songs

These are christmas songs that are bizarre in nature but i unironically love them and they slap. (I have a lot of other unique Christmas songs I love, but this list is specifically for the Weird ones)

Fairytale of New York by The Pogues

This song tells the story of two people who seemingly moved to New York with big dreams and now those dreams have fallen apart. Its Christmas and they kind of hate each other but need each other. Its almost like a Christmas edition of No Children. The beginning is kind of slow but then it gets so fun. Warning for some colorful language

YouTube ○ Spotify ○ Apple Music

The Cowboys' Christmas Ball by The Killers

Does what it says on the label. Not extremely weird on its own, though almost nothing in the lyrics are particularly Christmassy; the extra weird part of it is its music video. This is literally one of my favorite Christmas songs of all though it slaps so hard. There's several other weirder songs on The Killers' Christmas album but this is my favorite song and this is my list so.

YouTube ○ Spotify ○ Apple Music

(Don't Call Me) Mrs. Christmas by Emmy the Great & Tim Wheeler

Mrs. Claus is divorcing Santa. That's the song

YouTube ○ Spotify ○ Apple Music

Snoopy's Christmas by The Royal Guardsmen

So apparently Snoopy loves to fantasize about being a WWI pilot and someone decided to transpose that with the real historical event of The Christmas Truce when soldiers stopped fighting on Christmas day to celebrate together. Snoopy feels so random to me in this song but whatever it slaps.

YouTube ○ Spotify ○ Apple Music

Dominick the Donkey by Lou Monte

I debated about adding this one since its almost a classic and almost normalized but. Its a fucking weird song and its going on the list. It sounds like a concept made up my a random internet generator of some kind but it was written in the 1960s. Apparently Santa ditches the reindeer for a single donkey named Dominick while distributing presents in Italy.

YouTube ○ Spotify ○ Apple Music

i know many other weird christmas songs if you need more but i dont love them as much as these thank you for your time

[sibelin]

Hello, you have good taste in music. What are your fav romance songs recommendations?

hii, tysm!! it's not a very original list but i hope you find something you like:

it's probably the most expected answer but the cure really wrote some of the best romance songs in the 80s. my faves are lovesong, just like heaven, pictures of you and the lovecats! i guess everybody already know about them but still…peak romance.

depeche mode (what a surprise 😏) has made many of my favourites. if i only have to pick a few i'd say: a question of lust, higher love, home, one caress, somebody….

next, i'd say cuts you up and i'll fall with your knife by peter murphy, from his solo albums. the lyrics of cuts you up are sort of opened to interpretation. it's a good song in any case, though!

also depending on how you interpret it, the killing moon by echo and the bunnymen could fit the theme!

for a more tragic doomed romance song i'd also say forever by siouxsie in the banshees.

i'll add a few other songs that are not post-punk related: i've always considered tom waits to be one of the best lyricist there is, specially for this type of songs. it's an odd pick but tango till they're sore is the incarnation of romance to me, even though the lyrics are not directly talking about it. you can also check all the world is green if you like that first one! pj harvey has some good, very desperate ones too, my favourite is the garden. and i have to add most of the songs from grace by jeff buckley (including grace) because it's just good :')

you can also check tattooed man by coil if you want, this song is pretty much the definition of yearning

I might do some other characters/people if you ask me. these are just the ones I've written before

If you don’t know what to request, I got some prompts you can choose from below. Just make sure in your request to specify which prompt from which list!

General Prompts

It’s really not that complicated

Close the door

It’s three in the morning

I should have told you a long time ago

Why are you helping me?

You have to leave right now

Just trust me

I’ve been waiting a long time

We could get arrested for this

What were you thinking about?

I thought you were dead

You’re never going to let that go, are you?

Was that supposed to hurt?

I can explain

I don’t believe you

He/She/They was/were never mine, but losing him/her/them broke my heart

How do you destroy a monster without becoming one?

I’m afraid you’ll end up seeing me the way I see myself

He/she/they lived to be the greatest

Don’t ever forget me. Please.

The world stopped breathing that night

Everything here can kill you, but I can do it most efficiently

Don’t tell me to give up like everything is meaningless

I buy a personality

I screwed up

And maybe in the end, I was meant to be alone...

You’ll never see how toxic someone is until you breathe fresh air

I just want to go somewhere where nobody knows my name

All the memories come back, but they never do

If your treated like a monster for long enough you become one

Nightmares keeping you awake too?

There, there, it's okay, don't cry

Shh It's okay now, I'm here

I will always be here for you. Never forget that

Don't you ever forget that I am always here

If you ever feel alone, don't because I'm right here

I Literally Scraped My Knee Falling For You

Angst Prompts

Shut up

I can't believe you would do this to me. After everything I've done for you

Give it back

No.

I can't even look at you

You could have just told me

You're just a kid

I'm done

Stop talking to me

Stop coming back

I don't care

Please just let me go

Do you love him/her/them?

I can't love you

I used to think love was real

But in the end I was not the boy/girl/person he/she/they fell in love with

I always knew I would end up being the one who got hurt

If only I had spoken up to him/her/them the first day I saw him/her/them. Maybe we would have been friends and maybe we would have fallen in love. But I didn't talk to him/her/them and we weren't friends and we didn't fall in love. He/she/they found someone else. I can only blame myself

I tried not to fall in love with him/her/them

Can you please stop?

Why did you come back?

Go away

What you said really hurt

I can't do this anymore

I'm not fine. I know I said I was but I'm not

I can't love you. I don't know how

Help.

I have no choice

I had no choice

And with those words, he/she/they left

You're hurting me

You have to choose

Here. You can have it back

Kissing me won't make this go away

To think I trusted you...

I miss your smile

Don't you remember?

I never want to look at you again

You weren't there when I needed you most

How can one person be the source of so much pain?

You’re my regret

Watch me

Don't cry, everything will work out

Please don't cry, I'm so sorry

Fluffy Prompts

You deserve someone who values you

I've known you sense, forever. I can't imagine my life without you

We can't be friends anymore. I will always see you as something else

I don't like him/her/them. I like you

You're a wonderful person, never forget that

He/she/they has/have no idea what they're missing

Sure there are people out there who lobe you. I do

The lucky guy/girl/person who wins your heart will be so lucky

If it wasn't for you, I would be lost. I'm so glad you came into my life

I'd do anything for you

If I was your boy/girl friend, I'd pepper you with kisses and gifts and spoil you so badly

I've been thinking about you a lot lately

Are you jealous of (character/person)

Can you picture it? You and I together?

'Us' I like the sound of that

You always know what to say

My family thinks we're dating...

You’re in love with her/him/them

Come here

Love is overrated

I’ve missed this

Didn’t you guys used to be best friends?

[jasntodds]

I saw @spideyspeaches do this and I wanted to do it, too so here we are lol

Tag as many people as there are wips AND you guys get to send an ask about whichever is intriguing to you!!

To Be Human (Stiles Stilinski x OC)

Season 3 is angst like literally start to finish

Exert: “Wouldn’t you wanna know?”

“I don’t know! Maybe. But, Scott, do you know how fucking horrible, how cruel it is to say goodbye to someone every single time you see them? How fucking painful it is? I did that and it’s….yes it’s great I got to say goodbye to my mom on several occasions. Every time she was lucid, it was like a final goodbye. Over and over and over and over again. It never got easier and yeah maybe it helped a little when she did die but….it was torturous. Do you want to put her and everyone else though that?”

Hamartia (Dark Peter Parker x Reader)

Exert: You shake your head in disbelief and annoyance and heartbreak and betrayal and every emotion in between. “You were gonna leave me there and I took a bullet out of you and then I had to burn you.” You swallow, your chin quivering as you grit your teeth. “I’m going the fuck home.”

A lump forms in Peter’s throat. “Wait.” 

“No!” You yell. “God, I have been trying to get you to talk to me for a year.” Your eyes water and you hate yourself for it. “And now that I’m pissed at you, really, really pissed off and I saved your fucking life and you took a bullet for me, now you want me to stay? After this? I am done. I–” You stop yourself to breathe, trying to keep the tears in and Peter can only watch, trying to hold back his own. “I can’t do it. I…” A dry laugh leaves your throat as a single tear falls down your cheek. “I do care about you, a lot but we both could have died and-” You rub her nose, still not fully looking at Peter. “I can’t lose you, Pete.” Your eyes finally meet Peter’s and he gets a good look at just how red and irritated they are from crying.

"P-please, can you–”

“I got the bullet. It’s there on the table and I cleaned you up. I’ll wash your clothes and give them to Ned to give to you. You’re gonna be fine. You’ll heal in like two or three days.” 

“I won’t.” Peter says, no stutter, no break. Simple but raw.

The First Punch (Boxer!Tom x Boxer!Reader)

Exert: “Well, I…I just want to feel like I’m somebody to someone, that’s it. I want to be someone’s someone, someone’s person. If you see me riding the L, I’m just someone on a train. A no one, but I wanna be somebody. It doesn’t have to be anyone big or anything, just somebody to someone.”

Even the seemingly most confident people still want to be somebody.

Tom moves his hand to cup your cheek and his eyes lock with yours. “You’re not just someone sitting on the L to me. You’re somebody to me.”

Copacetic (Evan “Buck” Buckley x OC)

Exert: “You’re not expendable. I would miss you a lot if something ever happened. I was...I was so scared today watching the news. I just…..I knew you wouldn’t be okay and I just…” Maizie looks away and it’s like she wants the world to stop so she can properly explain to him what’s’ going on in her head but she doesn’t know how to make the world stop. “I don’t know. I miss you, too, Buck. And….I do love you.”

“You never told me.” Buck says.

“I was scared that if I told you, it would make it real.”

Saving Grace (John Murphy x OC)

I don’t have much of this fic written tbh lol

Exert: “Hey.” Murphy says, voice weak.

“Well, good to know you’re alive.” Alanna says.

“Least someone is.” Murphy quirks a half smirk as best as  he can muster. “What’d you do to get stuck with watching me?”

“Murder, probably.” Alanna rolls her eyes. “I offered, though.”

“Why?” Murphy scoffs.

Alanna shrugs. “Guess I enjoy your annoyance.”

Pretense (College!Peter Parker x HOH!Reader)

Exert: “Peter?” Your eyes narrow at Spider-Man, wondering if you’ve just completely lost your mind or if Spider-Man really is this quiet mess of a boy you’ve been seeing.

“W-what? I’m not Peter.” He says too quickly.

“Peter!” You yell, now feeling almost betrayed that he didn’t tell you. It was the quiver in his voice that gave him away.

Peter quickly rushes you into the nearby alley, telling you to be quiet.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” You question, your voice demanding.

“Shhhh.” Peter hushes. “I’ll explain later, okay?”

“It is you! I’ve been....I work JJ! You know----that’s why....” You stutter piecing together why, after you met Peter, suddenly you’ve getting this pictures of Spider-Man no one else has been managing to get. “You...lied to me.”

You’ll Forget Me (Peter Parker x Reader)

No Way Home spoilers so I won’t say anything but it’s two parts and part two will come when I feel better!! lol It’s almost done!!

The Lucky Ones (Tom Holland x Reader)

I’m not saying anything about this but if you read Forever and liked it, I think you’ll like this one a lot. It has a lot less angst and is more rom-commy (will be posting when I finish Hamartia and The First Punch)

Star-Crossed (Peter Parker x Reader)

Also No Way Home spoilers but it’s a soulmate short series (from what I have outlined so far) it’s gonna be angsty

chapter 4

It was the day of Kelsey’s very first Blues Brothers concert. She stood in front of the bathroom mirror taking care of her make-up. She usually wasn’t the type of girl that applied much but for tonights special occasion she chose to add some eye shadow and a soft lip gloss to her regular make-up which involved a foundation, mascara, some light powder and doing her eyebrows. The girl tied up her hair in a bun and pulled out one curly strand  at each side of her face. She picked another dress from her wardrobe, this time it was a dark red one with dark blue flowers on it, matching well to her blonde hair. She put on her black boots again, which she loved above all, given to her as a birthday present by her mum and threw on one of her black leather jackets.

She entered the concert hall and was surprised how big it was. This is a fucking barn. I didn’t think they would fill it. But they did, most seats were already taken. She was lucky to find a single empty seat on the far left edge, second row.

The show opener was “I Can’t Turn You Loose” and Jake and Elwood did a grant entry, Elwood with his briefcase and his harp in it and Jake was doing incredible flic-flacs across the entire stage. They played a great choice of songs with solos for the sax, the guitars, trombone, the horn, piano and harmonica, bringing out every member of the band, suiting Jake’s rough voice very well. She couldn’t resist staring at Mr. Fabulous during his stunning solo in the Peter Gunn theme. He looked hot killing those high notes with his sensuous chiseled lips and she missed his hazel eyes which were covered by the dark sunglasses everyone was wearing during concerts. Her staring of course hadn’t gone unnoticed by the trumpet player and as soon as the song came to an end he gave the girl his biggest and warmest smile, clearly happy to see her in the crowd. It wasn’t that easy staying focused on Alan though, with Elwood dancing and vibing right in front of Kelsey’s eyes. The tall man looked so sexy, swaying this hips and tasty bum to the rhythm of the music, and the way he played his harp, looked like he was making love to it. Every now and then he gave her a few glances before shaking his butt and she could swear he did it a little wilder just for her. She enjoyed every minute of their concert and was one of the loudest when calling for an encore.

After the concert she walked up the stairs at the side of the stage to greet the boys. Kelsey immediately caught the trumpet players eyes, who quickly put down his horn, excited to see her. As they both walked towards each other Kelsey was pulled into a hug from Elwood, approaching her from the side. “I don’t believe it, I didn’t knew you were coming.” “Hi Elwood.” The girl stammered taken by surprise and broke away from his arms.”Alan has invited me.”, she explained while letting her gaze wander in search of that very same man. But Alan had turned around on his heel as his heart dropped from seeing the two embracing each other. She saw him walking down the stairs to the backstage area with Lou carrying some of the equipment and she instantly felt bad for letting him down. She needed to talk to him after what had happened yesterday. “I’m almost finished but gotta help Willie demounting the drum set first.” Elwood explained. Kelsey quickly jumped down the stairs Alan had taken before and bumped into Tom. “Woah, slow down girl!” “Damn, I’m really sorry, Tom… Have you seen Alan?” The troubled girl apologised to the trombone player. “Mr.Fabulous? Yeah think he has already left with Lou. Seemed to be in quite a hurry.”, the tall man explained to her. She sighted in disappointment. “Oh, alright… Aaand Tom? Brilliant show by the way!” “Well thank you.”, he smiled and gave her a little bow. Kelsey then decided she should try not thinking about the horn player tonight as she went outside, waiting for Elwood to show up.

He pulled her out of her thoughts by poking her in the side and hugging her from behind. “You ready girl?” “Sure, been waiting for you.”, she beamed as he took her hand and they started walking to the little place where Sonny Boy was presenting some of his best tunes and songs.

When the show came to an end, the two walked hand in hand to Elwood’s car, inhaling the fresh but cold night air. The handsome musician gave Kelsey a look. “You freezing?” “Huh? No, I’m alright.”, she stated but the man took off his suit jacket putting it over her shoulders. “Thanks Elwood.” They reached the Blues Mobile, turning to each other. He broke in on Kelsey by crushing his lips on hers and pulled her in a tight hug. The kiss became more heated before Elwood stopped for a second, both gasping for air, when the pushed his forehead against hers. “I had a fantastic time with you tonight.” She wanted to answer but he pulled her into another deep kiss. The man grabbed her legs at each side and placed her on the bonnet of the Caddy, stepping in between her spread legs. Kelsey pulled at his shirt collar, loosening his tie and started to unbutton the white shirt. Elwood had moved his lips from her mouth down to her neck, nibbling at her ear causing her to moan softly. “How about we continue this at my place?”, he whispered in her ear. It would be a lie to say she wasn’t extremely tempted to agree on that but something held her back. “Perhaps another time, Elwood? It became rather late.”, she tried to say in a seductive way, not wanting to push him away completely. She couldn’t catch much of his reaction since he was wearing his shades. She caressed his face giving his glasses a soft tap. “Do you ever take these off?” “He gave her a roguish smile. “Only in bed.” “Stop it, you!”, she exclaimed and gave him a push on his chest. “Come on girl, I take you home!” She took a seat in the Cadillac’s passenger seat and watched the houses and lights they passed by while Elwood drove. He stopped at a red signal as the lifting bridge in front of them slowly started to move up, so the approaching tanker could pass. “You’re free from giddiness?” He grinned. “Err.. that depends.” Kelsey answered nervy. That answer satisfied him way enough so in the twinkling of an eye, he hit the gas, twisted the steering wheel around and raced straight towards the moving the bridge. The girl jumped up in her seat, grabbing the handle right above the car door and yelled in panic “Heeell, what are you doing?!?” The car picked up speed and jumped from one edge of the bridge to the other side, landing with a big jolt. Kelsey gasped for excitement, looking back at the bridge behind them. “THAT WAS AWESOME! What else can you do?” He laughed “Relax girl, think that’s enough for one night, don’t want the cops on me.” Shortly afterwards they reached Kelsey’s flat. He opened the passengers door for her and walked her to the main door. “So.. you’re sure I won’t get to take these off tonight?” He wiggled his eyebrows causing his glasses so slide down a few inches. “Well you can do whatever you like in ‘your’ bed.. by yourself.” He rolled his eyes in joking way and licked his lips. “You are such a tease, you know that?” He leaned in a gave her a kiss on the lips. “See you hun.”, the man whispered and made his way back to the car, driving off after giving the girl a quick wave. The next day the band had its usual rehearsal of course. Alan was one of the first showing up, so he started unpacking and warming up. While he applied some oil to the valves of his horn, Elwood, Jake, Willie and Murphy walked in. “Come on Mr. Motorhead, don’t be shy” Jake patted him on the back. “Yeah man!” Willie shouted. “Tell us if you finally got her laid. We do have a right to know.” “The hell you have”, Elwood said annoyed. Murphy added “If I’m up to speed it was their 3rd date, you all know what ‘that’ means.” Alan looked up from his horn, watching the guys acting like a bunch of pubescents.” Willie clapped his hands. “Nice man, real nice. How was it? Boy if you ask me, she's one of those wild ones who likes to take the reins!” Alan dropped the small bottle of oil. Did they really…? Could it be true? Elwood sighed. “You know what they say. ‘A gentleman does not boast of his conquests.’” “Aaaand once again we all know what ‘that’ means.” Murphy assured causing the harp player to roll his eyes but Alan couldn’t see that with Elwood being turned away from him. That statement though hit Alan right in the heart. So they really have. He just stood there, staring dead ahead. He didn’t know what to think or say or feel. But it hurt. It hurt as hell. “You don’t wanna pick that up?… Alan? ... Are you alright?” Lou waved his hand in front of his friend's eyes, bringing him back to reality. “Huh?” “The oil?” Lou pointed down. “Oh, err… yeah.”, Alan said emotionless and grabbed the little bottle.

As everyone was set up they started rehearsing, first on the list was “Gimme Some Lovin”. Jake started dictating the rhythm and the guys gave it everything. Except for Alan. As soon as the others realised he hadn’t joined them, they stopped. Jake gave him a look “You’re ready or what?” “Yeah, yeah, just start over.”, the trumpet player mumbled and so they did. They played half of the song when Murphy interrupted, suggesting to change a chord in the guitar parts. Tom looked over at Alan. “Psst, Alan, what the hell was that? Sounded like you left out a bunch of notes there, man.” The trumpet player didn’t even look at him but hissed under his breath. “Yeah, whatever.” Alan couldn’t stop thinking about ‘them’. He saw them in front of his inner eye, making out and with each second more he imagined them it hurt him even more. They started from the scratch until the chorus came up for the second time. Alan missed his cue, rapidly tried to catch up but lagged behind, so Jake broke off again. “I’m sorry guys, I, I seem to have some trouble focusing today.” Steve was fuming “Jeez Mr. Fabulous.”, he mocked his nickname by pronouncing it funny. "As soon as we make a mistake your bigheaded New York ass is hacked off but once you’re playing like crap, it’s alright, huh?” To be fair, this was nothing new, Steve and Alan often had a brush with each other, Steve’s southern characteristic trait hitting on Alan’s New Yorker attitude often ended in disputes. Lou chipped in “Woah hey, calm down, guys!” “Steve’s right though...” Elwood muttered, shrugging his shoulders. Alan gave him an intensely strain look but laughed derisively. “You know what guys? Fuck this, I’m getting out of here!” And with these words he grabbed his things, rushed to the door, kicked it open and left.

Acting range opinion? RDJ, Tom Holland, Elizabeth Olsen, Marisa Tomei, Don Cheadle, Zendaya, Paul Rudd?

Hi!

Well, I’m not a movie critic and I’m definitely not an expert, so this is based on what I’ve seen and think:

RDJ: This man is fantastic for me, I’ve fallen in love with each one of his roles lmao. Chaplin, Harry Lockhart, Paul Avery, Peter Highman, Steve Lopez,  Nathan Gardner, Sherlock Holmes, Tony Stark, Hank Palmer, John Dolittle and more. He’s THE actor. I love how he can express so much only with his eyes, it’s crazy. He’s able to convey complex emotions without exaggeration. His improvisation skills are excellent. I truly like how he always prepares for his roles, how he changes his mannerisms in accordance with every role. His body language is always strong in his acting skills, you can see he really gets in character when it’s required. He’s natural and remarkable in his own space. It’s almost like he’s completely unaware of the cameras going around him every time he acts. You can see that performing is something he’s passionate about and that alone makes me respect him even more. Method acting is always a win for me, especially with RDJ. I CAN’T wait for Sherlock Holmes 3.

Tom Holland: This kid is good, really good. I remember him mentioning something about how he gets prepared for an emotional scene; he said that he likes to feel the emotion by repeating it constantly until he’s satisfied with the outcome. It’s almost like he wants to really feel the gut-wrenching emotions going around him. That is fantastic, requires a lot of dedication and it sounds exhausting so I applaud him for that. I know everyone says this but he was phenomenal in The Impossible. 17 wins, 19 nominations, 31 credits and he’s only 23, he’s going to be one of the big ones, I’m sure of it. I also heard he’s going to be Oscar-worthy because of his upcoming movie Cherry and that he’s going to play young Nathan Drake; I'm impressed. He’s a hard-working actor, mad respect for that.

Elizabeth Olsen: I’ve seen almost all of her 22 movies and I think she’s great. Even if her sisters are a big part of my childhood, I think I like Elizabeth’s acting better. She’s one of those emotional reflective actresses that realistically can keep up with the narrative. I liked her acting in Silent House and I enjoyed her chemistry with Sigourney Weaver and Cillian Murphy in Red Lights.

Marisa Tomei: Oscar winner Marisa Tomei please and thank you. She is one of those actresses that can handle comedy, thriller, and drama at the same time. Genuine talent. She broke me when she played Natalie Strout. Her and Downey were the most amazing comedic duo in Only You♥ and I died with her role in Crazy, Stupid, Love lmao.

Don Cheadle: An actor who is truly committed always takes the cake for me. Don has perfect comedic timing. He’s just so good at it. He can handle emotional scenes that are meaningful, he adds some sort of wise condition to his surroundings that make the scenes more believable and realistic. He was amazing in Miles Ahead and I loved Reign Over Me.

Zendaya: I haven’t seen this girl in anything other than spider-man and I think she was in a Disney show but I’m sure she’s had other good roles. I can’t really say much because I don’t know about her acting skills and roles in general but I’m sure she’s doing fine. 

Paul Rudd: Are we going to talk about the legend that is Paul Rudd? Yes, we are lmao. From Josh Lucas, Mike Hannigan, Peter Klaven, George Hanson, Tommy Doyle to Scott Lang. Talk about range. I always enjoy anything when he’s on my screen, he’s that good. You can tell he’s someone who’s comfortable with his acting skills, he knows his own thing and can run with it with any role. I love him. 

Thnx!♥
