Frank (nice numberslut, btw!), I addressed your question re: Uma in the LotR thread.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Dear heavens. I had no idea that Chris Rock would be hosting the Oscars.
This could be much fun!

This could be the best Oscars ever.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm still holding out for Kelsey Grammer. But Chris Rock has lots o' potential.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Chris Rock hosting the Oscars on HBO would be better. And a drinkin' encouraged policy like the Golden Globes, with cameras in the bar (unlike perhaps the GGs) even better.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
Last night I zoned out on the couch and watched Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement. While still nowhere near as fun as the books, I thought this movie was better than the first one.
1. Less screen time from Heather Matarazzo as the best friend. Both the character and the actress bug me.
2. Julie Andrews saying "SHUT. UP!"
3. Julie Andrews sings!
Really, that's about it. I give it three stars, just for Julie Andrews being so awesome. And then I completely cheesed out and got misty during the final scene.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey. New board.
It's really happening...
ita... I'm scared...
I like PD2 a lot. I agree that it's much less fun than the books.
I saw it alone, at a matinee, with a bunch of kids around. I was this 21 year old male at a Saturday performance of an obviously kids movie. The parents in the theater kept giving me scary looks.
Also, I liked Heather M. as Lily. I thought she was great. But I can see the bug, she's a queer one.

That makes me very nervous.
