Sad to say.. I have even seen Bolt, and Wall-E.... but, not Kung Fu Panda....

I’d vote for BOLT!

TMZ caught Mickey praying at Sunday Mass by himself at St. Victor’s in Hollywood this morning. :)

I miss Loki.

Dolly you are right!!!....
There are those of you dear Freepers who do love the Cinema and those of us who don’t need to allow you all to enjoy it without messing up a perfectly good thread.
Accept my very sincere and open apologies for my last comment.

Your friend, Polly

I think Wall-E had great animation and music. Unfortunately it had a message.

I watched the trailer for Beverly Hills Chihuahua and you could tell it had a message about illegal immigration and open borders. Blech!

BTW, if you add Karl Kove on Twitter he turns around and follows you as well.

He Twitters a lot as does Hannity.

Click on "search" at bottom of twitter page, and then enter "oscars".

Every 20 seconds it tells you how many new tweets are available. Hit refresh to view

“I love cinema & will no doubt NOT hang here as they nay sayers ruin it for me”

What? You actually have a life? You go to movies?

How rewarding it must be to log onto a discussion thread about movies, on Saturday night, and proudly tell others they don’t go to movies.

To criticize movies they haven’t seen.

And get echos, echos, echos, mantra, mantra, mantra.

Well, Milk is one for one and I hope we don’t have to hear any more versions of that speech.

I just heard a bit of some weirdo who says that he promises everyeone that all homos will soon have equal rights...that would be a step down.
