I so wanted Social Network to win that year. Looking back, I totally would have been fine with 127 Hours or Black Swan, too.

I don't know, I feel like 12 Years a Slave will win because it's IMPORTANT (caps for emphasis, not yelling). Also, Brad Pitt's character fills the role of "Look, a nice white guy in a movie about slavery!" quota.
Gentleman's Agreement lost me forever when Peck's character called his actually Jewish secretary an anti-Semite. The whole thing of "I've had months of experience being a pretend Jewish man and I know what everyone's doing wrong!" thing drove me crazy. I get it was progressive and I'd even agree that it needed to be…
It's interesting to me that each Blackadder was supposed to be a great grandson of the previous. I unconsciously read the change of series settings as reincarnation. With each new era Blackadder gets smarter, more cynical, and achieves less because he never actually learned anything from the previous times.
"Marry Doris" is the moment this episode kicked my ass. We know nothing about Darling's personal life the entire series and just that little mention (and the line delivery) says everything.
According to the film "Infamous," Daniel Craig's American accent is….okay? I remember it as more awkward than effective.
Awesome. The age difference is totally acceptable.
Deal!
I watched the match between China and Denmark and had a similar experience. I always get more into curling the more I watch it. It has a simplicity to the rules that makes it readily accessible.
I loved that they all just hung out at the bottom of the hill as a group. That they immediately gave the Czech girl a hug made the whole thing even better.
Maybe, but I'm going to haggle on price. I'm just warning you now.
I always get more and more worried as the night goes on because it doesn't appear like they're smoothing the ice in between sets. All it would take is to land wrong in someone else's tracks and you're done.
My only real issue with figure skating is that the 15 year-old Russian skated as the little girl in the red coat from "Schindler's List." It was jarring enough that I spent her whole routine wondering about the subtext of that song and costume choice rather than enjoying her skill.
If only I had a time machine…and a gay angry Jesse Owens robot
Along similar lines, does anyone know how old Charlie White is? I find him to be adorable and I'm not sure how bad I should feel about that. It's the "Josh Hutcherson on SNL" fiasco all over again
But he did a nice job of pointing out how Vladimir the Russia Expert's orange socks brought out the orange specks in his tie!
I just wish NBC would show more of the medal ceremonies. I want to hear the all nation's national anthems and watch all athletes' pride in their accomplishment. The Olympics are cool because they're international. It would be nice of the coverage to embrace that fact.
This is sort of my feeling towards everything involving snowboarding. It's inclusion as an Olympic sport makes sense but after the "new kid" phase, it's just kind of boring.
I think we need to take a moment and appreciate the fact that Felicity actually got a hint of backstory in this episode.
Well, Sara and Oliver making out at the end certainly won't help the situation.
