Smart color choice for Helen Mirren!
A lot of people hate it, but I think it's perfect - and incredibly moving.
It is a bizarre concept
They seem to be starting the music pretty quickly cutting short the winners speechs.... which is a good thing.
It’s a little-known fact, but the G.I. Joe unit at Hasbro also manufactures toupees.
WTH is this song?!
I loved Fargo, and Raising Arizona. They did O Brother too, right?
“Nathan needs some Huggies.”
Where’s the hook?
:)
Apparently it didn’t work!
Don’t know - my husband’s watching something on PBS with #2 son.
The only listed movie we’ve seen is “Ratatoille,” which I’m *awfully* tired of :-).
Clooney probably has had his share of bad days just like everyone, but this incident was beyond belief.
The yodeling theme of Raising Arizona is great!
You know, Walt Disney is the first to ever portray mice as “cute” little creatures.
There is nothing cute about rodents. I don’t care how you dress them, or put lipstick on them, or eyelashes on them, or make them dance and sing.
THEY ARE RODENTS! And, they will poop and pee all over everything, and destroy your property in a very short time.
Aw you didn’t like it? It’s from “Enchanted,” which is the one where the fairy princess leaves the storybook and gets stranded in modern day NYC. I haven’t seen it but it got great reviews.
I think she’s a better singer than Kristin Chenoweth, whom I saw arriving earlier. Chenoweth is so trilly and operatic, uck.
You really have it out for the dirty rats dont you? ;)
