A few more posts only to reach a collective millstone of our own.

Re: Pink at the Oscars

This should make DR Cilla happy.

I need to set the show to record.  I like to speed through most of it.

[Jane]

If this works, it is a photo of my baby sister Molly and me in the summer of 1971.

Awww.  No wonder you are so close today.  You put the time in as a big brother.

[Cillaliz]

I saw that, but I don't know what she is singing or why she is singing

[Cillaliz]

We're over 300 posts, that should be a good start...it's not even red carpet time yet

[TCB]

DR Singdaw I hope you don't have any "ick" moments with your mouth.

Only every time he opens it!

[Jane]

Best supporting actor she likes Bark Abdi.   She also wonders why so many of these names are more dog oriented

DR Singdaw I hope you don't have any "ick" moments with your mouth.

I think we all hope he doesn't have any ick moments with his mouth.... 

I think we all hope WE don't have any ick moments with his mouth!

Oh wait, that isn't food.

Callie says she wants Cat Blanchette to win best actress

I hope groaning is allowed at HHW. 

Hey,  at least they are posts!

And I enjoyed them

LOL DR FJL

[ChasSmith]

I see I'm up for a modest millstone.

Kevin, come on in, the water is fine!

[Jane]

We once had a cat named Philomena.


We named her out of the obituary column in the local paper.

LOL!

Folks, I hate to say this after looking forward to it, but I won't be with y'all this evening during the Oscars.  I have a friend who has been through a rough couple of months for various reasons, and I'm going to watch the show with her because she just needs some company.  Other friends have been taking turns doing things with her, going out to eat a meal, catching a movie, etc., and I'm free to spend a little time this evening just being there so that's what I'm going to do.  I shall look forward to coming back and having a very satisfying ketchup session afterwards.

[Jane]

I've seen Albert the Bull

Albert is cute.

I think that is very sweet of you, Chas.

I have just learned that my dear friend and mentor, producer Stanley Rubin died last night.  He was 96.

I would not have had the success I had in the industry were it not for his kindness and support.

If you're not familiar with his credits, they include THE NARROW MARGIN (original), RIVER OF NO RETURN, THE PRESIDENT'S ANALYST and WHITE HUNTER, BLACK HEART.

He also produced TV series like GENERAL ELECTRIC THEATER, THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR, BRACKEN'S WORLD and the TV movie, BABE.

You were very fortunate to have a kind and talented mentor.  My condolences on your loss.  I hope his last years were good ones and he enjoyed his long life.

[ChasSmith]

Yes indeed.  Condolences, DR Druxy.

Kevin, come on in, the water is fine!

I'm here!  I was catching up on 11 (!) pages of posts!

[Jane]

Just in case you haven't heard the songs

The sound on my computer isn't the best.  I will have to watch the songs tonight, or whenever I watch my recording of the awards.

[KevinH]

I'm watching today's CBS Sunday Morning.  I can't believe how great Eva Marie Saint looks at age 89!

[elmore3003]

DR elmore3003 - I hope you know I only pick up these things out of love - it's certainly not personal!

I'm not upset with you. It's the goddam autocorrect. If I could turn the mother off, I would.

[Jane]

I will watch Gravity when my library gets it.  I did watch Captain Phillips yesterday and Dallas Buyer's Club today.

And? 
We have only seen Gravity & Captain Phillips.  We liked them both.  I think Captain Phillips was terrific. 

[Jane]

This is the first year in ages where I've seen most of the nominated films, thanks to the DGA screeners.  The only major film I didn't see, I think, was 12 Years a Slave, and as brilliant or good as it may be, it is just not my kind of film.  Of the ones I saw, the clear winner, for me, was Philomena.  The Academy, however, will never respond to a film like that over the likes of Slave and Wall Street and Hustle.  Gravity, which I enjoyed, is not in the league of Philomena, but it may just win the prize this evening.

I have talk to several friends in the industry who have not wanted to watch 12 YEARS A SLAVE, which is why I think that GRAVITY will probably win the top award.

I feel like everyone who can vote for Best Picture should have to watch all of the nominated films.

Agreed.

[TCB]

Jane, did you see GUILT TRIP?

[ChasSmith]

89!  Oy!

[KevinH]

Well, the rain has started in the DC area.  It will turn to snow tomorrow morning and we may get up to 10 inches, though I'm hoping it'll be less where I live.

Matthew M.  Lost 40 for Dallas Buyers Club

I didn't like how he looked. It was sickly and must have been so unhealthy for him to lose that much weight. You almost couldn't recognize him.

Well, he was supposed to look sickly.  Not sure how else you would play that part without losing the weight

Tom Hanks lost 50 pounds for his role in Cast Away.
