Sweden considering adding a label to films that pass the Bechdel Test

There's some interesting arguments both for and against such a thing, I think it would be a good idea because chances are a lot of people on the writing/production side of making films are probably a little bit blind to the issue.

Simply put, passing the Bechdel Test means your film has two or more women and they don't talk about men. The Avengers movie from last year passed, I think all of the Star Wars movies fail.

I have an on-again/off-again relationship to John McCain

"In the words of the late Morris K. Udall, as far as my presidential ambitions are concerned, ‘The people have spoken — the bastards.’”
—Sen. John McCain

but this is a good quote. He's sadly the most rational of the likely RNC front-runners for '16, but he's too old for the job.
