On being "fired" from the Globes…
Gervais said before the event that he wouldn't want to host next year. Which explains pretty much everything.

Oh, and no "Chumming The Ocean." Though I can understand why they wouldn't jam that one since this is supposed to be a fun and happy premiere or whatever.

No "Scenic Pastures?"
I pronounce this reunion a TOTAL FAILURE.

What? You don't want to see The Rite? A generic possession movie starring a hammy, apathetic, late-era Anthony Hopkins? WHAT DOES HOLLYWOOD HAVE TO DO TO PLEASE YOU?!

@ Unreliable Narrator

I finally caught The Pianist. I think it's better than Schindler's List.

*again.

Also, maybe Legend and Black Rain are actually pretty good? I HAVE NO IDEA. GOTTA WATCH 'EM.

@ Poop

I've liked what I've seen so far…
…but if anything can top this thing from that ThunderAnt project they were doing before I'll be amazed:

I thought it was really cool and creepy that the Crimson King was such a drooling loony by that point. And being erased entirely except his eyes was so fucking unnerving to me. He's supposed to still be "alive" at that point, isn't he? And they just leave that motherfucker.

Goodness, have we forgotten about Night Shift and Parenthood already?

If The Gunslinger is considered literature that is fucking awesome. It's certainly the leanest and best written of the series.

Excellent news.
Ridley Scott returning to sci-fi without the chance of further diminishing the Alien franchise in case his concept and execution both suck. Let's see if Alien and Blade Runner worked because of and not in spite of you, Ridley!

The deadly blimp movie. But great, now I want to see the vampire movie, too.

The Connors winning the lottery…
…has to be one of the most bone-headed creative decisions ever made. Who better for our audience to relate to than an obscenely rich family?

Miller, I love you, man.

The best comedy albums this year as determined by the Grammys:
1. Margaret Cho - Cho Dependent
2. Flight Of The Conchords - I Told You I Was Freaky
3. Kathy Griffin - Kathy Griffin Does The Bible Belt
4. Lewis Black - Stark Raving Black
5. Robin Williams - Weapons Of Self Destruction

Glenn Close is Judi Dench's beard.

I actually fucked up and confused it with Black Sunday, which was the movie I was originally interested in, but Bloody Sunday looks rad, too.
