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.

Saw a couple of movies

Yesterday was a “Teacher Prep” day for the whole district, so David and Cameron were both out of school.  I wanted to see “Inkheart”, but the boys both rallyed for “Paul Blart”.  I’d heard enough from other parents to now it was funny enough that adults were going without the kids to see it. So [...]

Sex and the City

It’s a rare morning.  I’m actually getting a chance to sit and watch “The View”…I love “The View”, especially since Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd have joined the cast. Today they were showing and encore presentation (read: REPEAT) of an episode that aired at the beginning of June.  This particular episode had Sarah Jessica Parker [...]
