–50 Cent is a piece of poo.

–John Boyega taught kids how to train like a Jedi as part of a an initiative to help them become more physically active.

She once told InStyle: “It’s like people talking about a TV show: I can be perfectly aware of the TV show and the story, but it doesn’t mean I watch it…Everyone has Instagram on their phone. [if I had it] I would be looking at it all the time.”

-This is supposed to get us excited for the Twin Peaks reboot.

-Now this is how you do a TV promo: here’s the first trailer for The Good Fight, the Good Wife spinoff that starts in Feb on CBS All Access. We’re getting this some legal way in Canada, right?!  I need Diane and her statement necklaces back in my life!

–Bella Thorne and her dating life exhausts me.

–Jacob Tremblay is on a new segment of Billy on the Street, and he’s so adorable that I want to wrap him in bubble wrap and protect him at all costs. “He’s more successful than you. The New York Times said he’s fragile and buoyant.”

-Collateral Beauty gave Will Smith the worst wide opening of his career with a measly $7M weekend. Even 7 Pounds doubled that.

-I don’t really keep up with all the Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian drama, but it was hard to avoid it this weekend. A hacker took over Blac’s Instagram and claimed she left Rob, then posted convos that seemed to prove a string of affairs with other men including Jaden Smith and Young Thug. She later confirmed that she’d left Rob, said that the conversations published were real but denied the affairs, and implied that the Kardashians might have been behind the whole thing.  For his part, Rob has apologized for commenting on  the posts and is “seeking help.”

-Here’s the first teaser for Blade Runner 2049, starring Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling. I don’t know why the hell anyone would want to mess with this IP, but if it has to be done, at least Denis Villeneuve is in charge.

Leslie Jones Had the Most Fun at the Emmys

–Leslie Jones was all of us by getting selfies at the Emmys with pretty much every TV star alive. And also John Mayer.

-Like Leslie, Pedro Pascal also seemed to  make the most of his time at the Emmys.

-That was a shockingly great Emmy Awards, right? It ended on time, was surprisingly inclusive, and (Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Game of Thrones’ aside) honoured plenty of new blood and niche series (Regina King won the ONLY Emmy for a network show last night). It’s the first time in years the show didn’t leave me rage-y. I even loved most of the dresses!

-Of course, the Emmy telecast hit an all-time ratings low because life.

-The kids from Stranger Things performed “Uptown Funk” at the Emmys preshow. God, I love them so much.

-Speaking of the Stranger Things cast, Steve’s hair really does look like that IRL!

–Gillian Anderson has no problem with all the talk about reinventing James Bond with her as the lead. (Nor do I.)

-I have yet to finish Fargo season 2, but season 3 will star Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Carrie Coon so I’m already in.

-Fall TV officially starts tonight with the premiere of the new Kristen Bell sitcom The Good Place, which is getting great reviews. (The fact that NBC is airing three episodes this week before settling into its regular timeslot is hella confusing, though.)

-Probably the best-reviewed new show of the season, This Is Us, also debuts this week. The only bad review I’ve read so far still makes me want to watch it, just for this: “This Is Us is invigoratingly heinous. Bad TV is a commonplace, but a true Mount Everest of bullshit is rare.” (Though I swear to god, if the big twist in the pilot is that Mandy Moore dies, I’m gonna throat punch someone. Girlfriend’s been trying to land a steady TV gig for a decade!)

-I had a great time at this year’s TIFF (which you can read all about here), but I fully agree with Variety’s take on how it’s become a bit of a dumping ground. It’s trying to be both an industry buying hotspot and a cinephile’s festival, and it can no longer pull it off.

-Yikes. Will Ferrell just dropped out of his next project days before shooting was supposed to begin.

-Wait, the girl who played Marissa is joining The Good Wife spinoff? But I’ve already vowed to not watch it!

-Everyone’s hating on Jimmy Fallon for his Donald Trump interview but like, what exactly were they expecting?

-This article on the significance behind Shonda Rhimes’ characters’ alcohol preferences is the perfect antidote to Mondays.

-I mean, does a couple that’s only been together 6 weeks really warrant articles on their breakup?

-Here’s a very, very brief look at Passengers, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt.
