[Movie] '07 Academy Awards

I'm pretty surprised Eddie Murphy didn't get the nod for best supporting actor and that Pan's Labyrinth lost the best foreign language film. Rumor had it that Pan's Labyrinth was actually going to be nominated for best motion picture.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There are lobby groups. Also, Ray Charles died the year that film came out, so it won just because of that.

Jennifer Hudson, IMO, did a phenomenal job. But so did the the two actresses nominated from Babel. I'm glad I'm not the person that had to pick for that category because it was stacked. Any of them could have taken it. If I had to decide though, I think I might have nominated the Japanese girl. It must be friggin' tough to play a deaf-mute like she did.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ya... ugh. I was half-asleep when I wrote that message.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Jennifer Hudson did . . .

Yup. It takes a certain amount of skill to make emotion come across like she did throughout the film.

How ya doing, buddy?
