Haven’t actually seen any of these (although off to see Ray tomorrow) but I really want to see Hotel Rwanda. Have you seen it?
Oh tell a lie, took the kids to Lemony Snicket, very good, just how we imagined everyone from reading the books.

Pretty much on the button, except that Clint Eastwood will win Best Actor & jamie Foxx will win Best Supporting Actor… (a long shot, but it’s a political thing, because.. well I explain it all here…

No one tell me who won, I am still in a media blackout until I can watch the telecast that I taped last night. Why is it on at 10:30pm here, why, why?!?

Yeah, I wondered that… I went to bed & read about it this morning. Would have taped it, but I don’t have a tape that long.
I think maybe the powers that be figured if we don’t have a film up there in major contention, no-one is interested. Plonkers. TV programmers are the lowest form of pond scum.
You’d have thought maybe a sky channel could have screened it - closest was some imbeciles on E’s Red carpet.
