Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ Gets the Animated Movie Treatment
Fans of Mariah Carey’s inconceivably popular holiday tune “All I Want for Christmas Is You” were shocked when they found out, in 2015, that the song wasn’t about a man or a piece of chocolate cake, but a dog! In Carey’s children’s book of the same name, she tells a story of a little girl who, more than anything, wants a puppy for Christmas. Now, Universal has optioned the movie rights, and is turning the story into an animated movie.

While some actresses would shy away from letting their line deliveries get emotional enough that their spit and snot practically flies at the camera, Viola Davis is not some actresses. If you feel like you’ve heard the word “Oscar” more than enough when it comes to Davis and Denzel Washington’s Fences, get ready to hear it one more time: Viola. Davis. Is. Going. To. Win. Best. Actress. This. Year.
‘Fist Fight’ Trailer: Ice Cube Really Wants to Punch Charlie Day in the Face
More often than not, schoolteachers have just as much beef with each other as the students they teach. Acting like models of excellence in front of 30 or 40 kids a day has got to be exhausting, and sometimes we all just need to let off some steam.

At Last, Billy Dee Williams Is Playing Two-Face in ‘The LEGO Batman Movie’
