Not Denying Hollywood Heiress Drew Barrymore and Accepting Ben Affleck as Batman

BY: GURU JAY

People like Drew Barrymore because she can be the girl next door or an heiress. Did you know Barrymore is one of Hollywood’s biggest families? Can you imagine going on the Barrymore family retreat?
I like Drew Barrymore because she is inconspicuous. You could talk to her for hours and never know she’s famous. Most real actors aren’t begging for attention. That’s why reality TV stars receive a bad rap.
As we look back and forward at Drew Barrymore’s career, let’s appreciate her valuable and intangible assets. How much is the perfect smile worth? Isn’t happiness priceless?
I’m not denying Drew got a head start. What I am saying is I won’t hold it against her. People can’t control whether they’re born rich, poor, black, or white. You see labels do not define Barrymore and that’s why she is an amazing actress.

Picture Barrymore playing the role of Hillary Clinton in the politician’s biopic. Speaking of powerful women, did you know Drew is a director? She started directing before Angelina Jolie. I would like Drew to dye her follicles jet-black like Angelina’s hairdo.
If Barrymore makes the right decisions, she could become a legendary filmmaker. The beautiful Hollywood heiress can use her connections to further advance her career. However, in Barrymore’s defense, she’d rather gather recognition according to her merits.
The Sony Hack uncovered system wide institutional corruption in the entertainment industry. Hopefully, Sony, Disney, New Corp and other corporations will create positive and lasting changes. Drew Barrymore keeps her name clean and she doesn’t complicate being a celebrity.
Many celebrities crave attention. There is nothing wrong with desiring love. But the problem is excess.

Finally, I’ve accepted Ben Affleck as Batman. Yes, I said Matt Damon would make a better Bruce Wayne. However, his good friend Ben is phenomenal.
Ben looks like Batman and appearances mean the world. Let’s do Affleck a favor and don’t compare him to Christian Bale. It’s not apples and oranges.  
It’s kiwis and coconuts. Plus, Ben Affleck has momentum on his side. It is always a good sign when the media is talking about you.
Like Barrymore, Affleck is a great director and excellent actor. I understand that the movie business is tough work. So, I won’t deny Drew Barrymore her inheritance. And at the same time, I will accept the fact Ben Affleck is Batman.

Scandal ‘No More Blood’ Recap: From Powerless to Powerful

BY: GURU JAY

Finally, the utility company also known as Shondaland restored Olivia Pope’s power. Were you worried that they would neutralize this supposed threat to national security? Once again, Scandal comes to a brilliant closing.
Recap
At a pivotal moment, Pope’s captor asks her a trick question. Does she want to leave with the Russians or Marie Wallace? Olivia seems to make the costly assumption that they give a damn!
Jake gets inside Huck’s mind by identifying their inner struggles with the “beast.” He tells Huck he deals with similar problems. The Gladiators make Huck promise to stop all the killing. Hence the episode title “No More Blood” is their new motto.
In the beginning, White House Chief of Staff Cyrus Beene (Jeff Perry) daydreams about resigning and giving the president an earful lecture. Instead, he secretly meets with intelligence and attempts to murder Olivia without President Fitzgerald Grant’s approval. Luckily, fate plans another course of action and Cyrus (Jeff Perry) cancels the neutralization in an abrupt and dramatic fashion. In the end, Perry’s character saves the day by carefully observing the predicament and recognizing Stephen Finch.
Finch is Olivia’s old colleague with Russian connections. Fortunately, Olivia would have won either way because the Gladiators were on the other end. Earlier in the episode, Pope spoke Farsi and talked herself out of becoming Iran’s hostage.
Olivia Pope went from the most powerful female TV character to the most powerless. She neutralized herself mentally. Pope was prepared to give her life for the country she loved and the greater good. 
President Grant was prepared to sacrifice everything for the woman he loved. Olivia lost respect for Grant because he allowed the Vice President to force him to wage an unjust war against Angola. In the words of Bobby Caldwell, what you won’t do for love!
