Was reading the note from OB.
**Do you have to do texting to facebookers to tweet?**
I had thought that twitter was created for Facebookers whose texting wasn’t fast enough?
oh no - dumb and dumber...Jennifer and Jack
Same here! I have to get up early tomorrow AM...
Have you seen any of these movies? "Slumdog", "Doubt" and "The Reader" look interesting. I saw the play "Doubt" at a small theatre (TheaterWorks) in Hartford... it was good.
Clemenza: Do you have any film critiques? ;-)
Jenn should jump out and scratch Angie’s eyes. :)

Me too, Dolly... You’re threads were great! And, I’m sorry you’ve become so dis-illusioned.. although, I can understand it.
It really was an outstanding year for movies.. IMHO. Best in year. What a shame this site can’t enjoy it.
Yup —O-bum-a just loves gay white males.
Pretty funny that they showed Angelina when Jennifer was onstage.
Damn it...I miss all the good stuff.
Hollywood has won more converts to America n the last 100 years than probably anything else.
Yeah, sometimes they’re wrong. But they win more fans for the USA than not,
Guess, I’m out... Seems the movie HATERS out-number the LOVERS... rather enjoy it by myself.
**Jenn should stick a pin in Angie’s lips**
Wouldn’t pop .. she would Fly around the room til she ran out of air!
I didn’t see, what was she thinking? :)
Heading downhill. That guy just thanked his high school drama teacher
She has been showing a lot of skin in her flicks, but who’s complaining. Maybe she will get Breast Actress.
I haven't seen any of these movies that are nominated.
We need someone like you who can critique them for REAL.
The rest of us will rag on the actors..

My aunt and uncle (who are very fussy about movies) saw Slumdog about a week ago and are still telling me I need to go see it.
Apparently it’s actually out on video this week (the big release to the US came right around the GG award thing last month, but it had been out earlier) so I think that’s why it’s out so soon while still being in theatres (but that’s just what I heard)
In any case, everyone who’s seen it has raved, but I trust my aunt and uncle...just haven’t managed to see it yet!
