COngrats to DR JMK, if that is indeed you.

I agree with Dan..... the West Bank Story film looked like it could be fun to see. And I have a copy of The Departed on DVD, so I'll be watching it. Can't say that I'm topo excited about a lot of the others though.

All right, this is the last time I let a cat make a decision for me. I mean, he's cute, but he doesn't know anything about movies.

But what a cutie

I'm inspired to see Infernal Affairs, the movie that was The Departed's source. I understand it's far less violent and much better.

I would like to get THE QUEEN on dvd when it comes out.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #1655 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:34:47 PM »

Hmm, have not heard of West Bank story.. It does looking interesting.

Sandra · « **Reply #1656 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:34:58 PM »

Maybe DR MusicGuy's dog Sugar could pick my predictions for next year.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #1657 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:35:10 PM »

Inspiration isn't the first thing that comes to mind after watching.

Maybe I'd like to see INCONVENIENT TRUTH.

MusicGuy · « **Reply #1658 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:35:31 PM »

Well, to the Esteemed Grande Mensch in the flowing gown, and to all of the other dainty and studly lovelies here in the Living Room, I must bid adieu.

I'll check in tomorrow........... but the only thing that made this Oscar broadcast bearable, was the company of the DRs here! Huzzah for HHW.

(goodnight Lucy...... you could have played all those roles.... at once !)

Wow! We had 10.4 inches of snow. I knew it was a lot I didn't know it was that much

Will we never get to page fifty-six?

Yes, we will.

Sugar has laid on her sofa for most of the evening like so much fish.

Sandra · « **Reply #1662 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:36:48 PM »

The leopard-spotted one?

Matt H. · « **Reply #1663 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:37:01 PM »

Yes, I understand THE DEPARTED is ultra violent, so I put off getting the Blu-ray disc. I'll watch it on HBO-HD and then decide if I want a copy for my library.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #1664 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:38:15 PM »

Agreed, MusicGuy. Posting on here multiplies the fun of watching tenfold.

Matt H. · « **Reply #1665 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:39:45 PM »

The length of the show was truly absurd. I enjoyed the shadow dancers. Not a single montage was actually needed. They overload the show with those every year.

If they want to pad the show, then show us clips of the nominated films and performances that last more than 20 seconds.

Bawbwa Walters is on now - let the games begin.

It looks like our winter storm has petered out to some freezing rain that may or may not change over to all rain.

bk · « **Reply #1668 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:40:27 PM »

Fifty-six pages, can you believe it?

Sandra · « **Reply #1669 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:40:28 PM »

All right, I'm going to sleep now. I can't fall asleep at preschool tomorrow or the three-year-olds will bury me in the sand.

Am I the only one here who didn't watch any of the Oscars or nominated movies?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #1670 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:40:36 PM »

Well kids, I'm off to get some sleep. It's been fun

And I will say this: Even though this stupid month is two to three days shorter than any other month, we will achieve our best posting month ever as of tomorrow - if tonight continues this way, it will be tonight.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #1673 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:41:49 PM »

If the montages were well done, that would be one thing. Instead it is like a mixture of the most obvious stuff, so that no matter what the "theme" is, they end up showing a scene from CASABLANCA and Jimmy Cagney on the oil tank in WHITE HEAT. Just the same old tropes.

Matt H. · « **Reply #1674 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:41:54 PM »

I will be very happy to get back to my regulation keyboard tomorrow. I don't type on this laptop very often, and I'm just not used to the touch of the keys on it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #1675 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:43:04 PM »

Well, I'll leave it up to the night owls and West Coasters to carry on the party.

What kind of effort would it take to get to 2,000 posts?

Rodzinski · « **Reply #1677 on:** February 25, 2007, 09:43:58 PM »

60 pages! We want 60!!!

and now we have both God and ancestors in the thank you.

And no, I don't have anything against God. Just faux-earnestness.

Funny...but I thought his speech the most genuine and moving of the evening. Yes, God again. Go figure!

There's just no restraining people of faith!
