All The Gross Ways You Reacted To Seeing ‘The Fault In Our Stars’

by 06/09/14

By Caitlyn Callegari

“The Fault in Our Stars” premiered this weekend so you know what that means– tears, lots of em’. If you happen to be one of those sobbing mega fans, fear not! You aren’t alone on that front. “The Fault in Our Stars” has reduced us all to blubbering, incoherent messes of people.

Here’s a blush-inducing and detailed rehashing of what you did while viewing “TFIOS” for the very first time:

1. Cried… instantly.

Opening credits rolled:

The Fault In Our Stars

You:

…And every second after the credits rolled.

2. Tried to pretend you weren’t crying when things like this happened:


​
​
​
Resistance is futile.

3. Mopped up aforementioned tears with any sort of fabric near you.


​

Shirt, scarf, shorts, pocketbook, the popcorn bag…

4. Shunned your friends when you realized that they WEREN’T crying (?!?!)

And they reacted like this…

5. Or when you did this because the person behind you wouldn’t stop talking:

6. Gripped the stranger’s hand next to you when it all became too much.

Expectation:

Reality:

7. Melted into your seat to avoid others looking at you babbling.

​8. Outwardly cursing John Green for the injustice:

You:

NOT OKAY!

9. Turned to your best friend to discuss every detail that was different than the book.

To the dismay of others around you…

SORRY YOU’RE NOT SORRY FOR BEING LITERATE.

When This Happened:

How Did ‘Game Of Thrones’ Pull Off The War At The Wall In The Books?

by 06/09/14

Warning: Spoilers for “The Watchers on the Wall,” and potential spoilers for the future of “Game of Thrones,” are ahead.

Jon Snow and Samwell Tarly just survived the longest night of their lives. But what if the great war at the Wall lasted even longer?

In George R.R. Martin’s “A Storm of Swords,” the novel that “Game of Thrones” season four takes most of its cues from, the battle between the Night’s Watch and Mance Rayder’s army lasts much longer than a single night. In fact, there are a few key differences between the books and how the show handled the conflict in “The Watchers on the Wall.”

For one thing, in the books, there’s a shorter period of time between Jon returning from his undercover assignment with the wildlings, and the wildlings’ assault. When Castle Black is attacked by Ygritte and the Thenns, Jon is still reeling from all of the many arrows he earned after double-crossing Ygritte and the wildlings.

The Night’s Watch is also better prepared in the books than they are in the show — at least, they’re more receptive to Jon’s warnings. That’s because the Watch is led by Donal Noye, a one-armed blacksmith who is acting as Lord Commander in the wake of Jeor Mormont’s death. At this point in the books, Alliser Thorne, serving as Lord Commander on the show, is serving the Watch as master-at-arms of Eastwatch-by-the-sea, the easternmost castle along the Wall.

While Alliser is not the world’s biggest Jon Snow fan in both the ...

Chance The Rapper And Childish Gambino Have A Joint EP On The Way

by 06/09/14

This one seemed inevitable. Childish Gambino and Chance the Rapper have been friends, collaborators and tour mates for a few years now, so it makes sense that they would finally team up for a joint project.

During his set at Governors Ball in NYC this weekend, Chance performed a lost verse from Gambino’s Because the Internet track “Worst Guys.” That left the actor and rapper open to reveal a big “hint” on Twitter, telling fans, “now that chance finally released his verse on “worst guys”, maybe he can hurry up and finish the rest of our EP.”

Gambino appears on the track “Favorite Song” from Chance’s Acid Rap mixtape and the Chicago rapper has previously opened for him on tour.

Gambino also got a nice little surprise this weekend, when Andre 3000 and his son showed up to catch his set. Chance has had to cancel a few recent shows, including a Coachella date, due to illness, but it looks like he’s back on track now.

Psy Calculates Snoop Dogg’s ‘Hangover’ Video Math: 8 Hours Of Shooting, 10 Hours Of Partying

by 06/09/14

Psy did the “Gangnam Style” thing and made 2 billion people very happy. It was cute, silly and fun to dance to at weddings and your 5-year-old niece’s birthday party.

But now the South Korean superstar is ready to seriously party, like, adult style. And when it’s professional tipping you’re after, the first (and probably only) person on your list should be Snoop Dogg.

“What I thought was I should refresh myself, and people, that I’m doing something different, so I thought about maybe changing genres,” Psy told MTV News about the retro 808 hip-hop style beat on his just-released single, “Hangover.” When he wrote the track, Psy was searching for a catchy hook, and, shocker, he came up with the perfect one the morning after a night of serious “over drinking.”

The video opens with Psy waking up in a trashed room, then running to the toilet to relive the previous night’s revelry, with Snoop popping up out of the bathtub to help his pal get the poison out. The brain wormy dancehall-style hook and the Jason Derulo-style honking horns combined with Snoop rhythmic back slapping and the sight of the two friends brushing their teeth together suggests that Psy may have hit mega-click gold again.

Psy said he felt confident that he’d nailed the booming 808 beat and the “hangover, hangover, hangover” hook, but something was missing. Oh, right, Snoop. “After that hook part was done, right away I thought about Snoop Dogg,” he said. “He’s hanging over every ...

‘Game Of Thrones’: 7 Questions About ‘The Watchers On The Wall’

by 06/09/14

Warning: Spoilers for the latest episode of “Game of Thrones” are ahead.

It was the greatest fire the North has ever seen, courtesy of the greatest battle “Game of Thrones” has ever seen.

“The Watchers on the Wall,” directed by Neil Marshall, the man who brought us “Blackwater,” brought more epic-scale fire and bloodshed than any previous hour of “Thrones” to date. Focused entirely on the conflict at the Wall, Jon Snow and his companions were forced to do battle with Mance Rayder’s invading army. We saw giants. We saw Thenns. And we saw people we love lose their lives in horrible and heroic ways.

Now, we have questions — seven of them, to be exact:

1. Did Ygritte Have To Die?
Probably, yeah. Jon Snow and Ygritte’s love was too bright and perfect for the twisted world of Westeros. The moment they met, they were doomed to end in tragedy. The real question is, if young Ollie hadn’t killed Ygritte when he did, would she have riddled Jon with arrows? Or were the former flames about to set their arms down and cast aside their differences? Alas, like Jon Snow, we will never know.

2. Did Pyp and Grenn Have To Die?
No, not really, considering that they don’t die here in the books. In the novels, it’s one-armed blacksmith Donal Noye who loses his life slaying the giant and defending the gate. Both Grenn and Pyp make it out of this initial assault on the Wall alive. But, for the purposes of ...

‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’: Watch Our On Set Visit With Megan Fox

by 06/09/14

With Reporting By Josh Horowitz

Get ready for some heroes in a half shell, because “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” is coming.

In anticipation of the reboot of the beloved franchise, we visited the set of the upcoming movie and spoke to stars Megan Fox and Will Arnett. And Fox, who plays news reporter and friend of the turtles April O’ Neil, couldn’t have been more excited.

“They were my favorite movies as a kid,” Fox said. “That was my thing. Way, way more so than ‘Star Wars’ or in later years, still more than ‘Lord of the Rings.’ It was always ‘Ninja Turtles.’”

It apparently wasn’t a totally platonic relationship either, as Fox developed some strong feelings for one of the turtles in particular.

“My first crush, and everyone thinks this is really weird, but little girls have crushes on animated characters, and my first crush was Michaelangelo,” Fox revealed. “So I’m super excited.”

Sorry, other turtles. Looks like you’ll have to find someone else. Fox and Michaelangelo are the next big Hollywood couple.

Perhaps the most defining aspect of April O’ Neil is her redder-than-red hair. But how red was too red?

“We went through many shades of red, and then we toned it down to a deep auburn,” Fox said. “But when they color time the movie it will be more red, FYI.”

We also caught up with Will Arnett, who plays cowardly cameraman Vernon Fenwick, who confirmed that both pizza and Splinter will play major roles in the film.

“Absolutely, Splinter is crucial,” Arnett said. ...

J. Cole Rocked Governors Ball And A Part Of NYC He Never Knew Existed

by 06/08/14

From his memorable performance at SOB’s back in early 2010 to getting a Roc chain from Jay Z during his birthday show at Madison Square Garden at the top of this year, it’s always special when J. Cole hits the stage in New York City. And his performance at Governors Ball on Sunday (June 8) added to that history.

The 29-year-old rapper was born and raised in Fayetteville, North Carolina — and he reps the military town to the fullest — but as a graduate of St. John’s University, he made NYC his second home over a decade ago. Despite that, it was his first time at Randall’s Island. “I never even knew this sh– existed,” he told the crowd.

Backed by a four-piece band, plus two female vocalists and a DJ, a smiling Cole emerged from backstage to open with “Return of Simba,” a 2011 lyrical exercise that rounded out his “Simba” trilogy and became a fan-favorite, despite never landing on an official project.

From there, he rolled into “Blow Up,” from Friday Night Lights, and then put his storytelling cap on for “Land of the Snakes,” off of his 2013 sophomore album Born Sinner. The crowd continued to show some adopted-hometown love as singles “Nobody’s Perfect,” “Work Out,” and “She Knows” rang off.

Cole then brought out Bas, the first artist signed to his Dreameville Records, for a performance of “Lit,” off of Quarter Water Raised Me Vol. ...

‘Game Of Thrones’: Every Huge Moment On ‘The Watchers On The Wall’

by 06/08/14

So, that was the biggest battle “Game of Thrones” has ever done, huh? “The Watchers On The Wall” ably follows up to the legacy director Neil Marshall started with the previous record holder, “Blackwater” back in season two, and trumped it.

Here’s every big moment on the biggest episode ever:

John Bradley, Kit HaringtonHelen Sloan/HBO

Boys Will Be Boys
The episode opens up with a number of dude chats, as both sides — the Wildling armies on either side of the Wall, and the Night’s Watch at Castle Black — prepare for the conflict they all know is coming.

But first: bro time.

Samwell talks to Jon Snow about what it’s like to have sex, asking pertinent questions like, “How big were her feet?” But really he’s asking about himself and Gilly, going as far as to explain that having sex is, “open to interpretation from the vows” of the Night’s Watch. It’s not losing your virginity if you do it up the butt, right Sam?

Speaking of which, over on the Wildling side Tormund is telling a story about the time he had sex with a bear, and Ygritte is having none of it. The Thenns, including their leader Styr think she’s upset because they have to go fight Jon Snow, her former lover, but she defers. And later, dies, but we’ll get to that in a bit.

And the last dude chat is between Maester Aemon and Samwell, where the old blind man essentially high fives Sam and tell him ...
