This was my first thought, too.

Do I have to fill out any forms or anything?  And can I just send you cash, or do you need a check or money order?

I'm still a little stunned that Rian Johnson didn't receive a nomination for best screenplay this year.  I haven't been baffled by the Academy in years, but this one made me feel like a naive young dude again, because I'm not certain there has been a more original and moving script in years. The film deserved other…

There were parts of the prequels that people liked?

If they win, can I get my nine dollars back?

Anyone else think the fact that there has been no real breakout hit can possibly be attributed to the fact that nearly every studio movie released this year has been utter shit?  The Bell Curve just keeps going downwards, it seems, and so I cannot decide if the lack of ticket buying enthusiasm is due to the changing…

Just recently finished watching BSG for the second time via netflix.  Hadn't seen it since it aired, and I was impressed as hell by the whole thing all over again.  It didn't just hold up for me, but rather it was even better than I remembered.  Rather than a great start that petered out, as I remembered, it was a…

Wow, you want to know all the how and why and where, huh?  Sounds pretty boring.

Sure you don't mean One Live To Live or GH?  I'm thinking he was the guy who played John McBain, no?

My favorite part was how there was a chase (and maybe a gun firing?) in an airport at the end, and security didn't just not show up, they actively ignored what was going on.  In one shot a guy dressed in a security uniform was just walking through the background, paying no attention to the guy chasing the woman and…

So, is she playing Dawn?

Can't wait to not watch it.

The real masochists were those who made The Event.  That's what kept me watching, because I could free associate about what the producers were thinking as they made it.  And it was pretty fun to watch as week-to-week you could see the level "don't give a shit" infect every aspect of the show. 

When I watched Lost over again, I came to believe S3 was far and away the best.  From start to finish, I was into nearly every episode that didn't involve Jack getting tattoos.  I think the bad rep comes from them airing the first six eps and then taking 3 or 4 months off.  It made the season feel like Jack was in…

The Lost comment is a little all over the place.  Are you saying the 2nd or 3rd season was the problem?  It sounds like you are saying season three, but in the end most people look back at the third season as being perhaps the best.  There was some in the moment bitching, especially thanks to really poor scheduling by…

If Fey won't do it, how about Sarah Palin?  Aren't they interchangeable? 

There is no doubt this is true.  I felt that way at the time, and looking back at the nominated performances now, there is no doubt that Martin's stands the test of time better than all of them.  Of the five noms, probably Bridges deserved it the most, with Tom Hulce a close second.  

I thought the show was a total mess, and maybe half of what MacFarlane brought to it didn't work at all, and that still made it the best Oscar telecast in many years.  Compared to walking corpse Billy Crystal and barely animated zombie James Franco, I'll take a Seth MacFarlane any year.  The people who deserve to be…

He is also apparently Mexican now.

I imagine I will feel the same about Zero Dark; I just haven't seen it yet.  But I did think the other three were all superior films, and at least The Master and Django will stay on my list for many years to come.  Lincoln wasn't slow for me, but I can see how it may not age as well for me as the others.  But I did…
