Is anyone else on blip.fm? I just found it today and it is awesome. It's like a musical twitter!

Follow me?

Hopefully I'll find people with similar tastes as me but have new stuff I can listen to. I've been in a musical rut lately, listening only to the Mary Poppins soundtrack, some funk, and then the flower power show yesterday that was just OK, only because I became bored of the music.

Natasha Richardson died from a ski accident.

Kate Winslet = Best. She was radiant.

Worst = Jessica Biel. What exactly was she doing there anyways?

Drunk post! I just had a short night. I went to the bus at 10 and got to the party at 10:30ish and then left about 12.30 ish. which was upsetting because i wanted tpo stay til later because my other friends fromw radio were getting there.

( because I am sober enough to remember how to make a cut in html mode )

I just watched Frost/Nixon. I thought it was great. The most impressive thing about the film was that I loved each and every character. I wasn't in love with them, I just loved them. I loved Frost and his determination to get and to win the interview. I loved lonely Nixon trying to make it back to the East coast. I loved Kevin Bacon's character for loving Nixon. I loved the producer. I loved Sam Rockwell's character not wanting to shake Nixon's hand but doing it anyway.

Another thing about the film was that I couldn't wait to get to the end. I needed to know what happened. I almost fast forwarded to watch the last fifteen minutes but controlled myself and watched the entire way through. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.

I like it when I can love every character. That rarely happens.

Because I love movies so much I decided to watch all the Oscar nominations this year. I have one more Best Picture to go (Frost/Nixon) and a few for the smaller categories here and there. I wish I was a writer, so these all pretty much go "I thought..."


( The Curious Case of Benjamin Button )

( Doubt )

( Milk )

( Bolt )

All I know is that I love The Boss.

Just watched Milk. Was blown away.

If you haven't seen it yet, please see it.

And if you haven't seen Philadelphia yet, see that too. Tom Hanks won the Oscar for his performance.

My roommate got a TV from her sister. I'm so happy. A wave of relief has washed over me. No more downloading, waiting for stuff to finish loading, no more staring into a tiny box on the computer screen, no watching stuff in the morning and wishing I could be watching at night.

I'm watching the SAG Awards. Here's what I think as I go:

<lj-cut text="Holy Moly this got long..."? Why didn't Marisa Tomei wear that to the Golden Globes? Pirate of the Caribbean/Stunning actor This is so much better produced than the Golden Globes? I love 30 Rock, but why can't other shows get a few wins in? John Hamm is adorable, but not a comedian. They're picking such bad clips. They aren't that funny. But there's a reason I'm sure. Evan Rachel Wood looks great. Loved the Trailblazers. That's why I love film so much. I'm crying right now. Claire Danes is gorgeous. This is the best clip of 30 Rock EVER. Why so many nominations for Weeds? It doesn't look that good...anyone watch? I know the first seasons were good because they won stuff years ago...but still? Kate Winslet is so beautiful. LOVE HER!!!!! That blue dress is amazing. I'll say it again: She better win the Oscar. Hugh Laurie is amazing. He really is. Episode after episode, he's always enthralling. OMG he just won! LOL, saweet, I called that one. (Even though Michael C. Hall deserves one too.) Way to go Sally Field. I've seen one episode of the show and loved it. I'll finish watching the series later... There's the beautiful couple. Dex and sis. :D "It's you" "Are you sure" "I think it's you" LOL I have a mandatory hall meeting but I'm watching this so I'm pretending I'm sleeping and I locked my door too, but now I have to PEE!!!! JAMES EARL JONES!!!! Has me sobbing. PAUL NEWMAN!!! Sobbing all over again. I hope that when my future husband grows old that he has super eyebrows. I don't understand how my parents don't know who Phillip Seymour Hoffman is. I guess he's just been seared into my memory from the first few minutes of Before the Devil Knows You're Dead... I love Ralph Fiennes. Oh no. Not another montage of amazing actors...here come more tears... Perfect Bernie Mac quote. Paul Newman. That was just too much. Heath... Lots of clapping for CCBB... Ralph Fiennes has the most lovely voice. I love Meryl Streep. AMAZING woman. She plays such serious roles but is such a bright, spirited person. And she's completely right about the women this year. Amazing actresses, all of them. Outshining the men by miles. I think that the makeup artists did an amazing job this year. Look at how different everyone looks. Cool, Sean Penn won. I was not expecting that. I really don't have a clue as to what he was going on about... I love the ensemble category. Way to go Slumdog Millionaire. Good movie. All those little kids were so cute. Great telecast. Just great.

My iPod is all charged up so I can go to bed now. That was fun, but I'm really not into many fandoms with loads of shipping possibilities.

I have to bring to everyone's attention the most hilarious thread that IMDb has ever seen.

Check it out!

It's speculation over the film I, Lucifer. IMDb says that Daniel Craig is starring in it but he's denied it in interviews. Since the site is user-run...I don't think it's going to happen. But this thread is hilarious. It's a whole bunch of people saying how they know Craig and what exactly is happening with the film.

Best. Thing. Ever.

I just watched Miss Potter. Not the end because my sister had first dibs on the TV but I woke up first and watched a movie but then she got up so I didn't watch the end yet. I will later today.

( spoilers under here ever though you see it coming the entire time )

So I bought a paid account yesterday. I was curious, and I hadn't spent money on myself in days, so I caved. It was actually a lot cheaper than I thought it would be, so I'm happy.

I'm enjoying all the userpics. I made and uploaded a bunch, but I'm having trouble finding the last three. Any icon maker suggestions? I got tired of wading through all the crap out there and now I need to go straight to the talented makers.

I added more Dylan icons. I love him a bit too much. I also have a bunch of Calvin and Hobbes icons now. They're so cute! Now I'm going to go stalk my f-list's icons and maybe find some good icons through them.

( Long )

And I'm still working on it...

I've seen a lot more movies than I thought I did. That makes me happy.
