Meh. The only thing I've ever seen him in was Remember the Titans (but that was 100 years ago) and the internet. But mainly the Videogum part of the internet.
I feel like Videogum may be lobbying for Big Ryan Gosling, because he wouldn't even occur to me as much as he does (very little) if it weren't for this site.
And apparently Bryan Cranston too! This is the best/most random cast since the 1998 cinema treasure You've Got Mail. Seriously, what was Dave Chappelle doing in there?
Ohhh I did the same thing - and then trolled Tumblr for the full video until it popped up. And then trolled the #GameofThrones hashtag on Twitter for news.
I'm actually concerned about how much I love this shoooow, guyssss!
I think the only thing preventing actual medical withdrawal for me in the off season is the fact that I'm reading the books.
We should not try to make movies about the 90s for another 20 years at least. Did anyone see Definitely, Maybe? Besides being very boring, it was supposed to be set during the first Clinton campaign and it just WASN'T. It was not set in the 90s in any way except that they said it was.
Hollywood just can't get this right.
John Hawkes is in two of these trailers! Contagion AND Higher Ground. When does he have time to make all the movies?
And Contagion looooks greeeaaat. I love apocalyptic movies - I prepare by watching survival strategy videos on YouTube, like the pioneers did.
I say all the awards should go to (the improbably named) PETER DINKLAGE!
Booo to no noms for Community.
Yay for Louis CK and all the Mad Men nom.
And - non sequitur-ish - I found this while trolling the Game of Thrones tag on Tumblr this morning: A Song of Princess Bride and Ice.
Yes, it's a Princess Bride / Game of Thrones blog and it's THE BEST.

I babysit a few toddlers and this is what they do anyway because they barely have bones. If you want to film and and call it yoga, sure, but you're a liar. Just saying.
Yesss. Kit Harington aka Jon Snow from Game of Thrones aka Sexy Boy Whose Mouth is Always Open was in the London production which got great reviews but looks HILARIOUSLY BAD from this video.
Then again, he has this face, so all is forgiven:

I get it and I love it and it's a huge reason behind why I read this blog every day, but I defy anyone to diagram one of Gabe's sentences at this point.
I tried, failed:

Take a nap, Gabe. You're very tired.
I'm subscribing to this channel so I can have a front row seat when they upload the video about how these MUTANT EGGS made them grow ears out of their elbows. Science.
A Dangerous Method is the old timey Secretary of our generation! NnnnnNNNNnnn! Also, Michael Shannon scares me, but my favorite role of his has to be Fred Kleiser in Groundhog Day.

BEST NEW FEATURE!
But seriously, Ian McShane is the best, right? I almost stomped my television out when Kings got cancelled. Can we just cast him in Game of Thrones and end my suffering?
Wow. I'm not opposed to twists or ambiguity, but I can only abide them if they're earned. A Serious Man had the most open-ended conclusion ever, but it was arguably successful because everything else in the movie lent itself to that type of an ending. If you rewatch The Sixth Sense, you see the breadcrumbs of the surprise ending sprinkled throughout the narrative.
Sorry, Veena. Not what you're doing. You're basically being Nicholas Sparks at this point. The Holder twist? WTFINHELL was that? Nothing about his arc during the season would lead viewers to buy cheap melodrama like that.
I only watched this show until the end of the season because I thought it would provide some measure of closure for what had been our shared 13 episode national nightmare - but no, Veena. You continue to try to enslave, rather than captivate us, with your hollow characterization (look! I'm wearing a Carhartt jacket and I don't trust the police!) and your unearned plot twists.
Too late! I don't care who killed Rosie Larsen. Maybe she killed herself because this show is so shit.
YOU GUYS! My books arrived today and I am going to read them right away even though I have many other things to do. Whatever, obligation! It's time for Game of Thrones.
The people I love will just have to DealWithIt.gif for a few weeks while I shut myself away and devour these books.
I just hope that Chris Brown doesn't get confused like he did with his hair color and start punching that cute little girl Justin Bieber. She doesn't deserve that.
Eddie Murphy had a sketch on SNL called White Like Me in which he super unconvincingly went undercover as a white guy to see how the other half lived. The results were, of course, exaggerated for comic effect, but what he found was that people said crazy racist shit when black people weren't around.
I say that to say this: I gained a TON of weight while I was suffering from a Major Depressive Episode for about 6 years. I've lost it over the past year, but now when I meet people who probably never knew I was fat, they say some outrageous stuff about fat people. JUST VERY MEAN AND CRUEL THINGS. And it pisses me off. I don't make a big deal about it - and I don't say anything hinting that I was fat, but I feel like a double agent. Like... if you knew, would you still say these things, you asshole.
So basically, FUCK YOU, HUGH MANATEE. You're the worst and I hope your website burns to the ground. You're the worst and you make people feel badly about themselves. Fuck off and I'm sure your room in our cubicle/dorm/parent’s house is literally wallpapered with autographed posters of Chris Brown because you love him so much. You're the worst. Go fuck yourself.
I've GOT to read the books now, because I Googled a few of the characters to get clarification on who they were (seriously, there are at least 2,000 characters in every episode) and got some INFURIATING spoilers. All I wanted to know is why Lily Allen's little brother was hanging out with the Starks all the time if he didn't seem to really want to be there. And now I know what's going to happen like.... 3 books from now.
The internet is not a friend of this show! And I'm not a big proponent of begging for recaps, because I know they're really tedious to do (this is me volunteering to do GoT recaps!), but can we get an open thread OR SOMETHING?
OMG, Kelly! The weird guys telling you to smile thing is THE WORST! I guess my default face is just mean looking because random fellows are always saying "Don't look so mean, boo." (BOO!) THIS IS JUST HOW MY FACE LOOKS WHEN I DON'T HAVE ANY THOUGHTS INSIDE OF IT. It just looks pissed off, okay?
People with money buying things they don't need feels like it explains a lot of ART, so sure. Sure.
Also: bodega cat! Why can't I find one in Chicago? I've been looking!
It must be soooo embarrassing for Robert Pattinson to have sex in real life now - what with his normal temperatured, non-sparkly penis and average amount of banging strength.
I supposed he could just buy a ridiculous amount of chipwood headboards to make the whole thing seem authentic, but why even bother? He knows he'll never live up to the myth.
