MOCA bets on festival’s star power
Mar 28th
‘Transmission LA’ will delay historical show’s opening, signaling a push to go ‘social.’ Tight money and an investment in pop culture — two factors shaping Jeffrey Deitch’s leadership of the Museum of Contemporary Art — have come together in a decision this month to delay a scholarly exhibition and substitute a revenue-generating, corporate-funded festival curated by rapper Mike D of the Beastie Boys.

From the submitter: “It took me a solid half-hour of staring before I realized this WASN’T a bullet or exit-wound. No people, that’s an alien bursting out of that poor bird’s chest. Tattoos don’t normally offend me, but this one actually upset me.” Submitted by: The-Baby

It’s the dance that tells a story. A really, really long story that also has three annoying prequels, some comic books, and a bunch of bad novelizations. And a holiday special that no one talks about. Submitted by: Jessica

HelOOOOOOOOOOO!

People in my hometown made a big deal out of Mrs. Doubtfire because one of the scenes was filmed in a local restaurant and everyone was sure they’d be BFFs with Sally Field and/or Pierce Brosnan’s plus-one for the wrap party by the time the director shouted “CUT” through an old-timey blowhorn. I went to see it in the theater with my parents, and then saw it again a few days later at a birthday party. I wasn’t so hot on it the first time around, and had I known the plan for Lisa Fitzsimons’ big day, well, I probably would have forgone Costco sheet cake to avoid seeing Robin Williams in drag twice. (Also, who the hell takes 12 kids to the movies for a birthday party? Lazy. Either that or Mrs. Fitzsimons’s affection for white zinfandel made a dark theater preferable to a houseful of screaming kids, which actually would explain why Lisa had to drive us home.) Anyway, what I’m saying it that, almost 20 years later, I’m still not ready to have any more Mrs. Doubtfire in my life. Mrs. Doubt franklin on the other hand . . . Submitted by: Renee
