We love you.

You’ll love them too, especially after you watch the cast show off their “hidden talents” in the hilarious People’s Choice Award Sketch above.

Last night was a very big night for Ms. Olsen.
Our former cover girl was named Best Actress at the Vancouver Film Critic Circle Awards.

Honored for her breakout performance in Martha Marcy May Marlene,
the newcomer beat out Meryl Streep and Michelle Williams (pretty wild, right?!).

Here’s what we’re wondering:
Do you think this means an Oscar Nomination is coming her way?

And more importantly:
What would/will she wear?!

We just watched the indie film Norwegian Wood this weekend, and we think you should too.

Here’s why:

You probably read the cult Haruki Murakami novel of the same name in English class;  but if you didn’t, click below for a quick refresher.

Amidst reports that even we can’t tolerate The Bachelor anymore, here’s a Monday morning question for you:

Which reality show would you be on?

The majority of the NYLON Digital Department votes for The Amazing Race.

(Although I have a hard time believing nobody wants to be on The City or The Hills…)

As for me, I’m voting for The Real World, but only if it’s The Real World London, circa 1995/ 1996, because somehow, it was the one cast where everyone was sane / smart / cool / funny… and yet, they all still managed to be entertaining.  Plus, I would have killed to raid Jacinda’s closet (and often tried to recreate it as a thirteen-year-old).

What about you?

It’s only ten seconds long, but The Secret Circle‘s opening song may be even scary than the evil witches on the show.

Just in case you were looking for an excuse to stay on the couch for a little bit longer, we’ve found one.: Season 3 of Misfits has just hit Hulu.

Watch it here….but don’t blame us when everyone asks where you’ve been all day (I mean, it’s Iwan Rheon…who can resist?)

Our March cover girl turns the big 2-9 today.

Next up, we can catch the L.A. native in the upcoming drama While We Were Here, but the project we’re most excited about is Big Sur.

Costarring Josh Lucas, the film is inspired by the eponymous Jack Kerouac novel that follows the Beat writer as he deals with getting older (get a refresher here).

Unfortunately we’ll have to wait awhile until we can actually catch it in theaters.

So until then, we suggest watching Blue Crush over and over again.

Because let’s face it: it just never gets old.

As I type this, I’m watching Easy A.

This would be unremarkable, except I’ve watched it at some point every day for the past week and a half.  I can now quote stupid lines like “Bye Nina!”  I can now look back on my interview with Penn Badgley regretfully, upset I never asked, “So did Woodchuck Todd do all his own stunts?”  It’s bad.

But the thing is, I know I’m not the only one.  I have a friend who listens to Dazed & Confused every night – on her iPod – as she’s falling asleep.  My old babysitter knew all the words to Pretty in Pink.  And I’m pretty sure I once had a roommate who claimed to be watching The Sopranos every Sunday when she was really watching Aladdin.

So now is the time to fess up – and perhaps to get me on a new tangent that doesn’t involve Emma Stone and a padded bra.  (It’s a great movie, and she’s hysterical in it, but it’s probably time to move on…)

What movie do you watch over and over?

–Faran

The actor turns 32 today.

Even with roles in movies like Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Scream 4, and The Romantics, we have to admit: he’ll always be Seth Cohen to us.

So if you’ve been looking for an excuse to watch The O.C.’s Chrismukkah episode from Season One for the millionth time, we’ve found it.
