It's weird how bad her movie career has been considering her generally good TV stuff and Mean Girls being a pretty nice first effort

Yeah, I saw that one and it's pulled of really nicely. It's pretty hard to reinvent the body=skull idea and do it convincingly. Respect.

So, I was looking at that guy's horribly painted face and now I can't stop staring at his nose.

Also, I was half expecting him to be using his violin to play the young women like a cello (like that one episode of Hannibal).

Also the tag makes it seem like one is blind and the other deaf like in See No Evil, Head No Evil.

I could swear I had this guy in my party in Baldur's Gate.

he's definitely perfect for the Jim Carrey role. I just question the need to incorporate hip hop violins for a 2016 audience and kids these days

My coffee warned me about it.

The world of star violinists is seriously hilarious and probably a concept for a future Will Farell movie. There are rockstar violinists, pop violinists, electro violinists - everybody has to have a gimmick so that they sell tons of tickets to people who wouldn't listen to classical music otherwise, it's amazing.

Also never forget:

Check out this rockstar violinst's gear though:

Yes, this 60 year old man has "Rebel Spirit" written directly on his clothes so that fine people in the philharmony know how to process it.

Oh, i've seen a good share of Eurovision clips. I'm cognizant of it.

Seeing clips of it is the extent of my knowledge, though. It's pretty bonkers poo poo.

Everybody Dies In The End: Season 6

Also I really don't know what those heads are supposed to be. I get that they symbolize them all being dead but what are they - trophy heads on the wall? Nope, the background doesn't fit. Heads sculpted on graves? Nope, they still just look like photoshopped living heads. It seems like somebody was supposed to make them look like they're made of stone but didn't succeed.

It took me a minute but I think they're supposed to be faces like the ones Arya's faceless assassin school uses in season 5.

Still an ugly poster design.
