Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Okay, I'm taking a poll... will the johnny cash biopic with joaquin phoenix and reese witherspoon be painful?

I'm not so sure about Witherspoon -- I can't think of many straight roles for her -- but Phoenix has the ability in spades.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Okay. Anything with Reese Witherspoon has to be painful, so that had to be a trick question.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love Reese!!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I watched the "Behind the Scenes" show on E! about the Cash biopic, and it actually looked pretty good. RW doesn't even look like herself with brown hair, and she is definitely not her usual perky/annoying self.

I actually love Reese too.

I would give up sex entirely before doing RW. Is that clear enough?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Legally Blonde was a lark. But I have no urge to see her do anything serious, and Joaquin makes me roll my eyes. And I don't know or care anything for that Cash guy.

Errr...yeah, I got no input for ya, Kat.

Well, Gus, I'm glad you'll never face that dilemma.
