Does seeing Queen live in 1984 qualify for "in their prime"? My face got rocked off, and Freddie sounded magnificent, so I'm going with "yes."

I'll put in my request for Daniel Dae Kim shirtless scenes. Isn't it hot in Hawaii? Doesn't that mean shirts should come off for..uh..comfort? And to avoid tan lines?

"Clumsy" is my adjective for, certainly, the first half of the show both in plot and dialogue. It got a little better, but I'm not sure I loved the fact that EVERY romantic relationship got thrown into some sort of upheaval. It left the writers with plenty of options down the road, but it felt heavy-handed, and the…

More love for "Woman 2 Woman". That whole album pretty much rocked my socks in the summer of '93. I still pull it out and let it play in my car for two weeks at a time.

Damn.

I think Jorge was referring to Sam Jackson in TRUE ROMANCE and his pussy-eating rant to the guy who claims he doesn't eat pussy.

Yes indeed. Donnie's recommendation led me to try In-n-Out, and I agree: that's a good burger, dude.

I'm suitably impressed that they managed to find someone shittier than Charlie Sheen to play the young upstart. Now I'm twice as inclined to skip this movie.

Good God, Towelie, don't tell everyone! I was going to surprise my husband for our anniversary next month!

Sounds like a good choice. I've got a stack of Kurosawa waiting to be watched and no freaking time to do it.

I remember that well, mostly because I thought "of course the movie about drag queens wins!" but that's also why I couldn't believe Powell won NOT for "Velvet Goldmine".

Never mind that they introduced the montage by saying something about horror being underrepresented at the Oscars since "The Exorcist" won in 197-something. My first thought was "Silence of the Lambs" is not horror, huh? You can certainly make the argument that it's more psychological thriller, but then montage starts…

Sandy Powell
was robbed of her true Oscar when she won for "Shakespear in Love" over "Velvet Goldmine" years ago. She said something in her speech last night about "costume dramas" that made me think she finds her wins for them as bogus as I do. Why does the academy ALWAYS pick the historical movie costumes? …

Kara is the only reason I am not watching this year. She got on my nerves from her first show. If the Idol producers can't see what an idiot she is and how having her and idiot Randy is like poison, they deserve to go down.

Instead of watching this, I watched some Invader Zim while I made dinner. That's pretty lame, I know, but it was a tasty dinner.

Proto, I saw side-by-side pics of Vonn and Mancuso. The difference in attractiveness (from this female perspective) is merely hair color. Do you gentlemen (and Ellen) prefer blonde or brunette? I can see Mancuso wondering why the heck blondie is getting all the glory when she (Mancuso) is at least a little more…

Considering that's the best career option most of them will ever have, it's probably doing them a favor.

I CARE, Fidel. erm can suck it.

I wish I'd been home watching hockey. Instead, I was at my local, closing-down Hollywood Video, buying up as much of their Criterion Collection as I could afford.
