LDiscussingFilm just posted on X — the new Allen trailer is here and it's giving grown-up E.T. energy.
CAllen? Like the alien from the new Netflix film?
LExactly. First live-action feature from Ludo Studio, the Bluey creators. A guy reunites with his alien best friend twenty years after they first met.
CSo it's E.T. phone home, but now he has rent to pay.
LOne reply said it should be called ET phone home again.
CI'll say this — Bluey's team knows how to make grown adults cry about a cartoon dog. This could wreck me.
LNetflix November 12.
CWe'll be watching.
LSpeaking of reunions, fan wars are back — a fan account called Ceyoncéology on X ranked the top pop stars: Beyoncé, Rihanna, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter.
CThat's not definitive, that's a fan account with taste. Gaga below Ariana? Absolutely not.
LAriana's vocals are cleaner right now, and Gaga's been acting more than singing.
CGaga just headlined a monster tour — her voice is the show. Ariana, as far as I know, hasn't released a proper album in years.
