Historically, the “Worlds Been Had Colliding” feature tends to deal with genuinely disparate-seeming celebrities coming together in some unexpected way. Like, “Oh look, Russell Crowe is making beats on Garage Band with the cat from those weird Friskies commercials,” or whatever. And in this case, there’s almost nothing even remotely surprising about two very famous actors working together on the set of their new movie (Thanks For Sharing). Of course they are! It’s called work, and everybody has to do it, because God said so. But I will say two things about this photo:
1. I’m not sure if you could find two more disparate people on the spectrum of self-awareness. On the left, you have one of the most deeply narcissistic, self-involved, completely out of touch “human beings” on the planet. On the right you have a dude who lives in the Catskills and marches on capital buildings to protest frakking. I don’t actually know Mark Ruffalo, and anyone who actually wants to play make believe in movies for a living is probably at least a little bit broken, but he’s the best even if Kelly hates You Can Count On Me, and I would like to maintain my image of him as a man of sincere integrity. Thanks.
2. Dudes, NOTHING IS EVEN GOING ON TODAY! If you look up “slow news day” in the dictionary there’s nothing there because a dictionary is a serious reference guide and why don’t you treat it with the respect it deserves, but if there were something there it would be a photograph of this day (good photograph).

As long as people own dogs and cameras, it can never be a slow news day.
As long as people in Australia own cameras, it can never etc.
So you’re basically saying this is officially a Bulldog Puppies Trying To Flip Over Open Thread, right?
Impromptu gif thread? Keeping an eye on this one.
I wonder what Gwyneth is up two now.
i’d imagine she’s wrecklessly driving around manhattan hoping for another terrorist attack. that or drinking a $1,000 bottle of wine in her oscar dress watching some poor british woman dressed as mary poppins change her kids’ diapers.
You should host a Videogum colloquium in which all the comment(at)ors give vlectures on their areas of expertise.
I will start with a PowerPoint about how Casey Jones is the worst character in the greatest cinematic achievement of our time: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990). Here is my abstract.
I would gladly lecture on post production, and how not to get paid for your work.
Is “↑2″ just like “<3", only directed at yourself?
If so: appropriate.

Way to make me side with cancer, Paltrow.

That link will lead you to two Shiba Inu eating a head of lettuce. Why I don’t have all the upvotes IS BEYOND ME.
because its cabbage – not lettuce
I’m with Kelly. You can count on that movie being straight garbage.
I DON’T THINK THAT, WE ACTUALLY DISAGREE!
I want Mark Ruffalo’s babies.
I want to have what comes before babies with Mark Ruffalo. Lots of it.
YOU GUYS SHE’S TALKING ABOUT CUM.
I thought she was talking about Chardonnay and low self-image
I thought she was talking about holding hands and hugging BECAUSE THAT’S HOW WE MAKE BABIES!!!
Did you guys know Mark Ruffalo one time had a dream that he had a brain tumor, and then, like, woke up and went to the doctor who then diagnosed him with a brain tumor? This is a true story. Bing it.
Gabe, you can stop making fun of Gwyneth Paltrow now. We all heard the podcast where you said you wanted to be her friend.
Yes we did.
today, we are all the kids, and we are NOT alright.
