The Internet’s Freaking Out Over Brie Larson’s Low-Cut Dress On Jimmy Kimmel Live

Image
Brie Larson has gone viral after guest hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, and while I wish I could say it was due to her wit, charm or bubbly personality, a brief glance at a single shot from the show reveals the far, far more shallow reason as being the star’s choice of plunging neckline attire. One thing about the internet you can always rely on, aside from the love of cats that aren’t unholy anthropomorphic abominations and Rickrolling somehow never going out of fashion, is people who are driven to extreme thirst making absolutely sure that everyone knows about it. Such a thing occurred when the Captain Marvel star moonlighted as a late night talk show host in one of the most eye-catching dresses ever created, prompting some vocal comments of inevitable reactions. The video of her opening monologue posted to YouTube, which at the time of writing has racked up well over a million and a half views, was declared by one user to contain “the horniest comment section I’ve ever se...

Baby Yoda Plushies Already Selling Out Months Ahead Of Release

Image
Everyone, I think I have a problem. The first step to recovering is admitting fault, so please, let me just say this: I’m, undoubtedly , 100%-ally , unequivocally , hooked on that gosh dang Baby Yoda. The Mandalorian   from which he sprang? Not so much. But The Child himself? Hell yeah, shoot that stuff right into my astigmatic eyeballs. I want it all. But, would you believe it, I may have to wait even longer to get my hands on one, as the dang things are selling out like blue buttermilk flapjacks. Despite not even being available until spring, Baby Yoda toys are currently out of stock on Amazon. Specifically, the two plushies, the talking one from Hasbro and the silent 11-incher from Mattel, are unavailable for purchase. While you can still get a Funko Pop if you’re a braindead idiot, us real adults will have to wait to get our toys. But, if you really need your fix, you can go find them online at Walmart or Best Buy. Bezos really goofed up, didn’t he? Hasbro's The Manda...

The Mandalorian Fans Can Now Own Baby Yoda As A Car Sticker

Image
Bounty hunters have a code. Our titular Mandalorian in the show, named after the warmongering race, no longer mongers war. He instead cares for The Child, aka Baby Yoda, aka Internet Sensation Baby Yoda aka I Want A Baby Yoda Toy. However, Disney, not anticipating that a cute animatronic creature would somehow generate interest in merch/huge sales of said merch, dropped the ball on putting out anything worthwhile. However, they are giving us normies a pittance: Baby Yoda On Board car stickers! Yep! In lieu of high-quality, cute fluffs to cuddle with or give to your cats as toys or potential lovers, one of the very first pieces of merch to actually be physically available are these newly-debuted car accessories. We have to wait until April and May for the Funko Pops (I hate Funk Pops, such a waste) and plushies , but for these gosh dang pod stickers, we only have to wait until January. Woo! Buckle up, buttercup, because your Honda is getting decked out and turned into a Hondalorian...

Netflix Reportedly Lost Over A Million Subscribers To Disney Plus In One Month

Image
The streaming competition between Netflix , Disney Plus , Amazon and the many other platforms available to viewers is only going to become tougher in 2020. It’s been about a month since Disney Plus launched and despite some technical teething problems, it’s quickly generated a healthy subscriber base , as well as a lot of buzz about  The Mandalorian and a certain green character. While Netflix are still the undisputed heavyweight of the streaming market, they may be worried about reports that over a million subscribers have defected to Disney Plus in its first month. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a study by investment bank and financial services company Cowen & Co. found that 19.4 million of Disney Plus’ approximately 24 million US subscribers also have Netflix. However, the same report indicates that 5.8% of those surveyed have already cut ties to Netflix, which represents about 1.1 million people. Netflix shouldn’t be too concerned, though, as they gained 7.6 million...
