Veggie Tales Made My Day

I was at work yesterday when the phone rang.  It was a nice gentleman who proceeded to ask me a bunch of questions. “Is the Mott Library affiliated with any other libraries?” No, we are an independent library.  “Do you take video donations?” Well, that depends, are we talking about DVDs or VHS? “DVD“, he [...]

Lovin Rhett Butler

“You should be kissed…and often…and by someone who knows how” Rhett Butler to Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone With the Wind” They have been advertising the release of Gone With the Wind on DVD and Blu-Ray and that is the scene they use…when ever I hear it, in my mind I say… Amen Brother!

Finally saw “Slumdog Millionaire”

WOW, what a movie! I had purposely avoided all talk of the movie because I didn’t want to have it fail to meet my expectations. It was nothing like what I was expecting.  I thought it was about this poor kid from the slums of India that wins millions on a TV game show.  And [...]

And the Oscar for Best Picture goes to…

Slumdog Millionaire! Talk about a movie that has done so well during award season! I absolutely can not wait to see this movie!  I’m so happy for this movie My final accuracy percentage was 4 out of 6 or 67% accuracy.  I forgot to post my prediction for Best Director which would have been the [...]

And the Award for Best Actor goes to…

Sean Penn! I am surprised!  I think he is long overdue to receive an Oscar! But he’s screwed up my Oscar Prediction Accuracy Percentage! Damn you Sean Penn!!!

And the award for Best Actress goes to…

Kate Winslet I am right again! Not really!  If all the awards in award season go to the same actress/actor, then it’s pretty much a no-brainer!  I am so anxious to see this movie! I wonder when it will be out on video! Off to the actor (Mickey – another winner of all awards) and [...]

And the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor goes to…

Heath Ledger This was pretty much a no-brainer.  Yes, it was a great role, and a fabulous actor.  Had he not passed, I’m sure he would have been up for so many more awards in his career. I’m 2 for 3

The Oscar for Best Animated Feature goes to…

WALL-E – YEAH!!!!! I’m 1 for 2 on my predictions

And the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress goes to

Penelope Cruz for “Vicki Christina Barcelona”. I’m O for 1.

My Oscar Predictions

Oscar night is a big night for me…always has been!  When I was younger, we tried to see all the nominated films and would sit in front of the TV cheering for “our picks”, jeering those that won that we didn’t pick, and usually crying through acceptance speeches and the “In Memorium” film reel.  Tonight [...]
