I'm still working on seeing films and there are some I won't be able to see until after the awards because I missed them in the theatre (Capote, History of Violence, The Constant Gardener, etc.) But my one big comment? Crash sucked. Really - even though it's nominated a lot, please, don't waste your time.

I'd love to! What's your Friday eveing like? I try to make a point of seeing all the nominations. I wanted to see Capote but was broke for all of December/January. Though I am getting a bit fed up with our fetish for biopics lately.

Or Thursday night...

Next Thursday might be really good - Hubby has a soccer game and he claims he "doesn't like westerns" even though he watched High Plains Drifter on Sunday ;)

Oh, and did you check your mail?

[antarcticlust.livejournal.com]

Not yet! I will right now! Next Thursday as in this coming Thursday? Or the one next week? :)

[brdgt.livejournal.com]

Next week (I'm so bad with those statements!)

That's fine- you say it the same way I do...there's just the oddball who doesn't know the RIGHT way. ;)
