The foolish minxes over at Celebitchy attempt to determine whether Cillian Murphy is sexy or creepy in these In Time red carpet photos. Ladies, ladies, ladies, many have tried, all have failed. (Cillian Murphy) But I think we can all agree that flashing a little butt cheek is a “Red Carpet Don’t.” Even if it is the very fetching butt cheek of Amanda Seyfried. (Celebitchy)

This interactive graphic of the evolution of Western Dance Music is awfully fun, even if it asserts that Europe didn’t get any until the late 1960s. (Thomson)

Here’s a sweet little list of Fictional Places You Can Visit In Real Life. Downton Abbey? Feh. I’ll hold out for Pemberley, thank you very much. (Flavorwire)

‎I’m not going to comment too much on the NY Post article…because I’m angry…and I don’t like to write angry. I’ll just leave this excerpt here for those of you disinclined to read the whole piece: “This fall, nobody’s more in touch with their inner Lisbeth Salander than the women of Brooklyn, terrorized by more than 20 sex attacks in Park Slope, Windsor Terrace and Kensington over the past eight months…. And now, in an appropriately Swedish turn, regular women can channel their outer Lisbeth, too. H&M’s 30-piece Dragon Tattoo line was created by Trish Summerville, the Fincher film’s costume designer, and distills the essence of her character into slightly less S&M-y threads.” (NY Post)

BAD MOOD CLEANSER! Look at this cute little girl dressed as “Princess Batman” for Halloween. (Comics Alliance)

Didn’t we talk about this? About not wearing Black Face for Halloween? I thought we covered this, guys. Apparently Raffi Torres of the Redwings didn’t get the memo. (Yahoo)

It’s not necessary! Check out this adorable Turk and JD costume duo. In the tweeted words of Donald Faison, “Guy dressed as Turk, I want to thank you for not going in Black Face.” (Twitter)

Replica sent me this lovely site. I know so many offenders, and none of them is me. WHAT?!?!? MY USE IF CAPS LOCK IS JUDICIOUS AND APROPOS. (Welcome To The Internet Time Out)

It’s the first day of Dia De Los Muertos. In honor of this fantastic festival, I want to ask you which deceased person (beloved and known to you or otherwise) you would take to dinner tonight. Me? Dorothy Parker. And by “take to dinner” I mean “attempt to drink under the tabs…or the host.” (Unreality)

The wonderful BierceAmbrose, who keeps me in links, sent me this rather disturbing article on horrific injuries sustained during sex. Read with caution folks. While I was on that site, however, I stumbled on this magnificent response to Ryan Gosling vs. Puppies. I present: JGL vs. Kittens. (The Frisky)

I don’t know what it is. Perhaps that cliche about a man in uniform is true, but I am supremely digging on these shots of JGL in Gotham PD blue from the set of the Dark Knight Rises. He’s looking, well, grown up. (Just Jared)

Finally, punkins, the last gasp of Halloween splendor. Here’s a sweet time lapse video of the creation of this year’s Google Doodle.

And, is there anything cuter than a teacher going out of his way to prove to his students that science is cool? No. No there is not. You rock on, science teachers.

Joanna Robinson is seething with jealousy at all of you folks you got to see the Tate/Tennant “Much Ado” mentioned yesterday. She’d hate you, if she didn’t love you so. Twitter! Email!

When did Mark Wahlberg get cast in Batman?

Posted by: chayes at November 1, 2011 1:06 PM

More like "Jimmy McNulty: Rookie Year."

Posted by: Kettle at November 1, 2011 1:12 PM

And my day is made. Many thanks for the JGL, as always.

Posted by: Even Stevens at November 1, 2011 1:15 PM

Blah blah, JGL, Blah blah don't care, where's Christian Bale shirtless? He needs to give it up or Superman or Thor will have the best of Batman, and we can't have that.

Posted by: figgy at November 1, 2011 1:17 PM

Immma stop you right there. Torres is a Coyotes and has NEVER played for the Wing!

Posted by: Nimue at November 1, 2011 1:18 PM

My Wings fandom made my typing get the better of me up there.

Posted by: Nimue at November 1, 2011 1:20 PM

I would totally take Warren Zevon to dinner. Huh. I'd like to meet his tailor...

Posted by: klingonfree at November 1, 2011 1:21 PM

Hmm. JGL is looking a little too bulked-up in that picture. I prefer my JGL lithesome and more youthful. Let's hope it's just the uniform that's making him look that way. I'll take 50/50 JGL any day.

Posted by: tamatha at November 1, 2011 1:31 PM

Yeah, I love JGL more than just about anybody, but putting him in a police uniform makes him look *less* grown-up. For reals.

I'd still do him. Twice on Sundays.

Posted by: MM at November 1, 2011 1:38 PM

JGL v. Kitty was a tie.

This didn't happen to me (really, I was just the taxi driver)...but don't take extenze if:
a. you are drinking
b. you have an errection
c. you are uncirumcized.

It could result in a visit to the emergency room because your foreskin is acting as a cock ring and preventing the penis from becoming flacid...or priapism. The doctor will have to force the tip back in manually.

Good times and an expensive bill later. It's the gift that keeps on giving. The best part was the medcheck doc shouting "You're going ot lose your dick!" before sending him to the emergency room.

You took mine, Joanna. Maybe we can double date with Dorothy and Winston Churchill?

Posted by: Dorothy Snarker at November 1, 2011 1:47 PM

You know, maybe it's just me, but looking at the photo of Raffi Torres as Jay-Z, I'm actually more impressed than offended. It's not some kind of racist characature that often springs to mind when you hear "blackface,"it's actually pretty tame as far as costumes go. I'm a lot more offended by seeing every female costume turn into "sexy ______" over the last however many years.

Besides, it's no worse than Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder.

You're trying to kill me with these animal vs. cute actor links, aren't you?

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at November 1, 2011 1:57 PM

I am going to second Nimue's comment here:

Raffi Torres DOES NOT AND HAS NEVER played for the Detroit Red Wings.

And it's two words: Red. Wings. Not one.

Posted by: Forbiddendonut at November 1, 2011 2:04 PM

It's not Much Ado, and there's no Catherine Tate, but the David Tennant/Patrick Stewart Royal Shakespeare Company filmed production of Hamlet was on youtube last time I checked.

Posted by: Ruby at November 1, 2011 2:28 PM

Immma stop you right there. Torres is a Coyotes and has NEVER played for the Wing!

Raffi Torres DOES NOT AND HAS NEVER played for the Detroit Red Wings.

How can you even tell? All hockey players look alike.

Before y'all start in on me, I am friends with at least TWO hockey players, AND I've heard all of Gretzky's records.

Posted by: Jast at November 1, 2011 2:31 PM

I totally thought that was Scott Disick in the photo and not Christian Bale.

I was wondering how the fuck he managed to get into the movie.

I'll go kill myself now.

Posted by: DeistBrawler at November 1, 2011 2:37 PM

I think JGL kind of looks like T3 from Terminator.

Posted by: Vee at November 1, 2011 3:15 PM

Exploding pumpkins! How cool.

But, you social people, you still don't get nerds. Science is all about bending the world to your / our / my will, whether it's making time stand still or making a pumpkin go "boom." How else are any of us gonna get to date Felicia Day's avatar?

That video reminds me of a high school chemistry demonstration - some local pebbles plus the right juice and "boom." You can still find antique miners' lamps that used this stuff - a liquid reservoir over a chamber for the pebbles with a hole for a flame with a reflector behind it. Electric lights hadn't been figured out yet, so these guys were wearing little reactors on their heads, filled with exploding rocks!

Besides an understanding of modern science plus historical frontier / homesteading techniques is pretty much required to survive the Zombie Apocalypse long term.

My local used bookstore is having 40% off everything this coming weekend, so I'm planning to pick up some frontier/homesteading guides. Just in case.

Posted by: MM at November 1, 2011 3:42 PM

Did they...

...are they using rape as a way to sell fashion?

Ugh. My eyes feel gritty.

Posted by: superasente at November 1, 2011 5:38 PM

I would take my grandparents and be like 'sup?'

Also if I could have two dinners, Buster Keaton because oh my gosh so dreamy.

Posted by: Nadine at November 1, 2011 6:56 PM

When I saw the header pic, my instant reaction was, "WATCH OUT, JGL, PATRICK BATEMAN IS RIGHT BEHIND YOU!"

Christian Bale will never not look crazy to me.

- Henley's Forumulas,
- The Firefox book series,
- the original Whole Earth Catalog, plus the magazine when it was around,
- some of the older kids' books on trapping, orienteering, etc.
- a good medieval apothecary,

Hey, there's nothing wrong with survival-porn. I'll be in my bunker.

Posted by: BierceAmbrose at November 1, 2011 7:55 PM

I knew it! I ask for a break from Fassbender Fascination and JGL is up next.

Jon Hamm on deck!

"Besides, it's no worse than Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder."
- Markus

I thought that was the whole point of the RDJ character in Tropic Thunder, the fact that it was such a awful, jerk-wad thing to do, and RDJ's character was just such an awful jerk-wad he didn't understand that. He thought he was taking on this role and identifying as black and championing the struggle of black people, but he was in fact a walking insult and caricature made up of all of these stereotypes.

Posted by: DarthBrookes at November 1, 2011 8:40 PM

A) OH MY GOD THIS IS WHY I DON'T DO SPORTS.

B) I saw that production of the Tennant/Stewart Hamlet. Live with my eyeballs. OKAY FINE TENNANT WAS OUT WITH A BACK INJURY. But Stewart was fantastic and the design, with the mirrors, was amazing.

C) What Darth said. . .about the jerk wads.

Posted by: Joanna Robinson at November 1, 2011 8:43 PM

So it's not just me who thinks that JGL looks exactly like McNulty? That's comforting.

Posted by: A-schaef at November 1, 2011 9:32 PM

Joanna Robinson, that's fantastic. I mean, it was exciting as a video, but I imagine that it would be electric on stage. Although, the use of video cameras in the recorded version was also interesting in its own right.

That said, it's worth watching the David Tennant version simply for a certain bawdy joke in Act 3, Scene 2 that I had not previously heard pronounced so distinctly.

Posted by: Ruby at November 1, 2011 9:45 PM

But, Raffi Torres isn't a fictional character championing the black cause; he's just dressing up as someone he's apparently a fan of. It's impossible to tell from the photo is Raffi was acting or speaking in a way that could be considered stereotypical or offensive, but the costume itself looks pretty harmless.

Besides, he at least looks like Jay-Z. Dwayne Wade apparently went in whiteface as Justin Timberlake, and it looks a whole lot more ridiculous (and yet, I haven't seen a fraction of the outrage over this:)
