Hehe, that's cool. :) Erin

"A Mighty Wind" is one of those movies that I wanted to see in the theater but it never ended up happening. That was cool that they did it in character like that. The one I always remember is from the 2000 Oscars, when Robin Williams led that huge ensemble with wacky costumes and everything in...

What did everyone think of the Best Song nominees this year? I really enjoyed the performances, except, I must admit, I wasn't crazy about The Triplets of Belleville. That one was just a little weird for me, and seemed out of place amidst all these really moving, inspirational sorts of songs. i...

Did Pirates end up winning anything? I forget now. I know LOTR snatched away most of their chances, and Master and Commander finished off the technical categories, and Depp lost to Penn. So they ended up empty-handed, didn't they? A shame, because it really is a high-quality movie. It was a bit...

WOW. I knew Jackson went to several companies but had no idea Disney was one of them. Now I love Disney, or at least Disney as it used to be - and they've still got some worthwhile things going now - but I've always thought I probably wouldn't trust Disney with Tolkien. Setting aside the fact...

Yes, that's right, they weren't nominated in the other Sound category, which I found kind of interesting. They also didn't get a cinematography nomination, though they won the award for it before. So it did end up being a clean sweep, which I must say surprised me a bit but made me very happy. I...

I liked that Peter looked a little frumpled. He was just being himself. At least he wore shoes! ;) Erin

Wow, that's so cool that you got to hang out with the SpongeBob creator! That must've been awesome! :) Erin

I missed the beginning of the Oscars (though I taped it) but once I started watching I couldn't find Billy anywhere! Sean was kinda hiding him; I didn't spot him until, I think, the screenplay award. I was a little bummed that Howard Shore didn't mention Billy when he got his award, but I...

Alas, I kid you not... :sympathy: Erin

I agree, you have to separate the artist from the art to some degree. I particularly feel that way about actors; it's harder with a director because so much of their own selves is reflected in their work, but you can still certainly have great directors who aren't very nice people. I don't know...

Wow, I didn't know about either of those. It's hard to imagine Burt playing Han and Tom playing Indy. I think they made the right choice. ;) Erin

Gack! :eek: I just learned that our boy Billy's next role is going to be as the voice of the child of Chucky in the upcoming Child's Play movie "Seed of Chucky." Yeccccchhhhh!!!!! :grouchy: Erin

WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Need I say more? ;) Erin

Hehe, yeah, I saw a clip of that one time, with George telling Lorne that he thought it was pretty chintzy to just be getting 900 bucks and it wasn't his fault the others didn't show up. It was pretty funny. Erin

That's one episode I would really like to see in full. I've seen bits of them performing "Here Comes the Sun," but I haven't even heard the whole of that. What I heard was great and I'd love to get ahold of the whole thing. I didn't even know that they performed "Homeward Bound" together. I'd be...

I think they really wanted to tap the religious market. And it certainly worked. I think it's still sold out here for a couple more days, mostly by church groups. The timing was very appropriate. I'm not surprised they released it that day. Erin

Well, I'm just talking about his Lord of the Rings; I don't think I've ever seen his other stuff. i just couldn't sit through that movie, and I couldn't be more passionate about the subject matter. He did stick fairly close to the book, but I found the animation style an eyesore and just the...

I still haven't completely decided if I'm going to see the movie or not, but I'm leaning pretty heavily towards "no." I hate violence, and "The Passion" looks like one long two-hour bloodfest. I just don't know if I can handle it. Apparently there are a few short, more pleasant scenes...

I like George Harrison a lot, though I'm not that familiar with most of his solo work. I think he had a really nice personality and his contribution to the Beatles was underrated. He just seemed really calm and humble and spiritual, and I think he was a great musician. Erin
