"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Clint Eastwood won the DGA for Million Dollar Baby.
Hmmm. And DGA has a high rate for predicting Directing Oscar because it's basically the same people, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They have a high rate of prediction, but I'm pretty sure the Oscar nominations are done by peers, award voting by everyone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesse's right.

All but 6 of the DGA winners in the last 20 years have gone on to win the Oscar for best director. The last time when Roman Polanski won for The Pianist.

Alan Cumming on the Joss/Xmen3 rumors:
Regarding the much touted Joss Whedon rumors, Cumming speculated that they were false. "I don't think he is though. I heard that too last year, but I don't know. I don't think that's happening. Maybe it is. It certainly seems to be that was around, but I don't know. I mean, I think he'd be great."

Scream 2 is on AMC.
WHY do I not have Neve Campbell's hair? (It would be nice to look like her in general, but the haircut is actually within my reach.)

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
I just saw her in When Will I Be Loved. Oh my. She's very easy to look at, and what a performance.

For the televisual equivalent of a potboiler Party of Five had a high concentration of talented actors and actresses. And then there was Jennifer Love Hewitt.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Scream 2 is on AMC.
As much as I like that movie, that channel keeps me wondering how they define "American Movie Classics".
Didn't they used to be more about the oldies?
