Walt Disney hated cats and usually portayed them as evil and/or sinister. That probably led to his having good rats.
Yep.
Kristin Chenoweth is from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, my previous residence!
(End of useless trivia :-).
Anything she did was front page new in the weekly Broken Arrow news!
How many awards is “300” up for?
I liked Ratatouille from a storytelling point of view. But I admit the idea of rats cooking for a restaurant is beyond gross. But then again, Remy was pretty likeable as a character. I dunno.
It stank.

Hehe cool :)
Hey that was a funny joke. Jon Stewart is 1 for 20 or so.
Oh, yes!
Shortage of fashion shots on this year’s thread - that’s what I’m really interested in!
I adore Cheowith - she has a beautiful voice and is a good actress.
umm....a number less than 300 :)
When someone told me about it I just thought “How is that gonna sell?”
Broken Arrow is a nice place. Excellent library, parks, and Catholic churches :-). And chickens!
I was thinking and if Academy really wants to streamline and improve this show they should pony up the money to whichever network is broadcasting it and make it a commercial-free broadcast. They can afford it.
I don’t dislike Kristin.. she’s just not my cup of tea. A little too earnest or precious or something.
Aw man, Golden Compass won something. A sinister flick if you ask me.
Zot, Keith ... shave! Who’s on the right? Looking great!
Wow, Cate is a little big pregnant
Thanks for posting these photos, Maggie.
Did Johnny Depp and his wife make the red carpet
run or did I miss them?
But can anything with Sam Elliot in it be really bad?
