Fake Toy of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

There are plenty of fans of The Witch<\/em><\/strong> who would totally buy this talking Black Phillip toy if it was real (via Midnight Marauder<\/a>):<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Custom Toy of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Check out the fan-created Lego<\/strong> set for a genuinely rolling BB-8<\/strong> from Star Wars: The Force Awakens<\/em><\/strong> (via Gizmodo<\/a>):<\/p>\n

Roundtable Parody of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Unknown” actress and comedian Molly Hawkey<\/strong> inserted herself into the 2014 THR Actress Roundtable<\/a>, taking over Reese Witherspoon<\/strong>‘s spot next to Julianne Moore<\/strong>, Laura Dern<\/strong>, Patricia Arquette<\/strong>, Hilary Swank<\/strong>, Amy Adams<\/strong> and Felicity Jones<\/strong> and it’s kind of awkward (via The Film Stage<\/a>):<\/p>\n
